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:
Employees working in the vicinity of loads lifted with "C hook" below the
hook lifting devices
at the Steel Dock in Building 14, in department 162 at post AX67, and
department 126 at post
E73, were exposed to the hazard of being struck by falling loads due to
the potential of
overloading C hooks that were not marked with their rated capacity, or
overloading cranes or
hoists due to not figuring the weight of the C hook and its load into the
total weight lifted with
the crane or hoist. In some cases hooks were available for use without
their weight marked on
the device so that the total load could be calculated, or in other cases,
the weight marked on the
hook was not being figured into the total weight of the lift.
Among others, feasible and acceptable means to correct this hazard would
be to mark and use
"C hooks" in compliance with ANSI B30.20, the American National Standard
for Below-The-
Hook Lifting Devices.
