What this inspection record means
OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text
North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of North Carolina: The employer did not furnish each of his employees conditions of employment and a place of employment free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to falls from elevation: a)Water Management Department: North Durham Water Reclamation Facility, South Durham Water Reclamation Facility, Brown Water Treatment Plant, and the Williams Water Treatment Plant - throughout each facility, for the employees who used a ladder to descend to the lower level of holding areas including, but not limited to, the Aeration Basins, Decant Tanks, and Settling Basins by placing a ladder into the holding area, climbing over guardrail system and stepping directly onto the ladder rungs, or by scrambling through the guardrail system and standing on the inside portion of the walking platform prior to steeping onto the ladder. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard would be to install outwardly swinging gates that would allow employees to access the ladder extended into the holding areas by stepping from the walking working surface onto the ladder without climbing over or through the guardrail system or by providing fall protection equipment for employees that would provide fall protection from the transition from the walking/working surface onto the ladder. Reference: 29 CFR 1910.23(c)(1): Every open sided floor or platform four feet or more above adjacent floor or ground level shall be guarded by a standard railing (or the equivalent as specified in paragraph (e)(3) of this section) on all open sides except where there is entrance to a ramp, stairway, or fixed ladder; or 29 CFR 1926.501(b)(1): Employee(s) on a walking/working surface (horizontal and vertical surface) with an unprotected side or edge which is 6 feet (1.8m) or more above a lower level were not protected from falling by the use of guardrail systems, safety net systems or personal fall arrest system.
