General-duty citation text

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970:  The
employer did not
furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from
recognized hazards
that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to
employees in that
employees were exposed to:
On and prior to August 12, 2005 employees were exposed to accidental
contact with
extremely hot surfaces and fire that is released out of the flues when
performing duties
around the furnaces and the employer did not provide adequate controls to
prevent exposure
to the hazard.  Each of six gas furnaces had an attached flue which was
approximately 67
inches from the floor and released flames at intermittent and unexpected
times without
warning.
Among other methods, feasible and acceptable abatement methods to correct
this hazard are:
a)Extend flues to a height which prevents employee contact or exposure;
b)Extend flues to vent furnaces outside the building.
ANSI standard Z241.2 - 1999 Safety Requirements for Melting and Pouring of
Metals in the
Metalcasting Industry, Section 3.6:  "Fluid Exhaust (Gas or Liquid). The
Employer shall be
responsible for arranging conductors to direct the exhaust of fluids to a
location(s) that will
not create a hazardous condition."
