North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of North Carolina: 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 fire and explosion hazards: a)facility - board line waste, combustible dust accumulated up to 1-inch thick on horizonal surfaces including piping and electrical equipment and was clinging to vertical surfaces such as walls, machinery and electrical equipment due to failure to control fugitive emissions and poor housekeeping. b)facility - extruder lines 11-15, combustible dust accumulated approximately 1/4- inch thick on horizonal surfaces including piping, ductwork, I-beams, and electrical equipment such as the top of lighting fixtures and disconnects due to inadequate housekeeping. One feasible and acceptable method of abatement, among others, to correct this hazard is the employer to follow the procedures in the NFPA document 654, Standard for the Prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions from Manufacturing, Processing, and Handling of Combustible Particulate Solids.
