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 the hazard of being struck by fragments of
plastic pipe used to
transport compressed air for the operation of air operated tools and air
used for cleaning, in
the event the piping ruptures:
a. Throughout the maintenance shop, polyvinyl chloride ( PVC ) plastic
pipe was used
to transport compressed air in exposed above ground locations, for the
operation of
air operated tools and air used for cleaning, a practice not recommended
by the
Plastics Pipe Institute and prohibited by ANSI/ASME B31.8-1986, Gas
Transmission
and Distribution Piping Systems standard, on or about 06/23/05.
Among other methods one feasible and acceptable method to correct this
hazard
is to replace
the PVC piping with a type that is approved for transporting compressed
gases in exposed
above ground locations, such as iron or steel piping.
