General-duty citation text
5(a)(1): 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, including severe burns, to employees in that employees were exposed to dust explosion, deflagration or other fire hazards from dust collectors that lacked explosion protection systems: a)The dust collector in the Mixing Department did not have an explosion protection system, and was installed inside the building; b)The dust collector in the Extruder Department did not have an explosion protection system, and was installed inside the building; c)The dust collector installed outside the rear of the building which exhausts the cyclone at the grinder was not provided with an isolation device to prevent dust explosions from traveling back into the building. Among other methods, a feasible abatement method to correct this hazard is: (1) Relocate indoor dust collectors to outside the facility or install engineering controls such as suppression, inerting, and/or explosion venting to the outside; and (2) Install isolation devices to prevent explosions back through ductwork. Install per requirements of the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) Standard 654, "Standard for the prevention of Fire and Dust Explosions from the Manufacturing, Processing and Handling of Combustible Solids" and NFPA 69, "Standard on Explosion Prevention Systems" and NFPA 68, "Guide for Venting Deflagrations".
