employer does not
furnish to each of his employees a place of employment which are free from

(f)  3rd floor of Building U:  The employer does not prevent the escape of
dust from conveyors
for Fruit Elevator #2.  This violation was observed on or about April 16,
2008.
Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instances (a) through
(f) above, one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008)
Sections 10.1 and
10.3.1 to reduce handling speeds, dust tight enclosures, ventilation, and
other such techniques
to prevent escape of dust into the building.
(g)  100-lb Packaging/Howe & Richardson Scale area:  The employer does not
prevent the
escape of dust from packaging and weighing equipment such as the Howe &
Richardson scale
machine and the Inglett scale machine.  This violation was observed on or
about April 10, 2008.
Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instance (g) above,
one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008) Sections 10.1
and 10.3.1.3 to
enclose and, if necessary, vent or air aspirate the packaging and weighing
systems to collect the
dust normally emitted by rapid air displacement during filling and
emptying.
Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days, the employer
must submit an
abatement plan describing the actions it is taking to establish,
communicate
and implement
written procedures to prevent the escape of combustible dust from
equipment.e

employer does not
furnish to each of his employees a place of employment which are free from
recognized hazards
of the propagation of a fire, deflagration, and/or explosion outside the
area of the initial fire,
deflagration, and/or explosion which are causing or likely to cause death
or serious physical
harm to employees:
(a) Powder Mill Room:  The employer does not equip the room with explosion
relief venting
distributed over the exterior walls and roof.  This violation was observed
on or about March 14,
2008.
(b) Boschwema Packaging Area (1st Floor):  The employer does not equip two
enclosures
housing Bosch packaging machines with explosion relief venting to the
exterior of the building.
This violation was observed on or about March 19, 2008.
(c) Storage Bin 5 Area:  The employer does not equip the structure which
houses the storage bin
with explosion relief venting distributed over the exterior walls and

Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instances (a) through
(c) above, one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008)
Sections 6.1 and
6.2.1 to provide explosion venting such as relief panels, windows or other
venting devices
distributed over the exterior walls, designed in a manner to relieve any
increased pressure inside
resulting from an explosion or a deflagration.  See NFPA 68, Standard on
Explosion Protection
by Deflagration Venting, for information on determining the appropriate
explosion venting area
and arrangement.  In addition, these relief panels, windows or other
venting devices shall be
designed to prevent reclosing after relieving the explosion pressure and
shall be attached to
retention cables or restrained by equivalent means such that they will not
become projectiles
upon relief.  Other feasible means of abatement methods include, but are
not limited to,
suppression, containment or inerting systems as described in NFPA 69,
Standard on Explosion
Prevention Systems.
(d) Bucket Elevators No. 3 and No. 4:  The employer does not equip the
legs of bucket elevators
3 and 4 with explosion relief venting.  This violation was observed on or

provide maximum practicable explosion relief area through the roof
directly to the outside.
(g) Rotex Room (Building Y):  The employer does not equip the cooler
elevator with explosion
relief venting to the exterior of the building.  This violation was
observed on or about April 3,
2008.
Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instance (g) above,
one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008) Sections

direct any explosion venting to a safe, outside location away from
platforms, means of egress,
or other potentially occupied areas.

packaging
room
with explosion protection systems.  This violation was observed on or
about March 19, 2008.
(i) Storage Bin 5 Area:  The employer does not equip the structure which
houses the storage bin
with explosion protection systems.  This violation was observed on or

Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instances (j) and (k)
above, one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008)
Sections 6.1 and 6.3
to vent the equipment to a safe, outside location away from platforms,
means of egress, or other
potentially occupied areas.  See NFPA 68, Standard on Explosion Protection
by
Deflagration
Venting, for information on determining the appropriate explosion venting
area and arrangement.
Other feasible means of abatement methods include, but are not limited to,
suppression,
containment, or inerting systems as described in NFPA 69, Standard on
Explosion Prevention
Systems.
(l) Building U:  The employer does not equip the "A", "B", and "C" bottom
granulators in
Building U with explosion protection systems.  This violation was observed
on or about March
20, 2008.
Among other feasible abatement methods to correct the hazard identified in
instance (l) above,
one method is to implement the requirement of NFPA 61 (2008) Sections 6.1,
6.3, and 8.3.4
to vent the granulators to a safe, outside location away from platforms,
means of egress, or other
potentially occupied areas.  See NFPA 68, Standard on Explosion Protection
by Deflagration
Venting, for information on determining the appropriate explosion venting
area
and arrangement.
Other feasible means of abatement methods include, but are not limited to,
suppression,
containment, or inerting systems as described in NFPA 69, Standard on
Explosion Prevention
Systems.
Pursuant to 29 C.F.R. 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days, the employer
must submit an
abatement plan describing the actions it is taking to establish,
communicate and implement
written procedures to ensure that equipment, rooms, and/or buildings
containing combustible
dust, including sugar dust, in hazardous accumulations and/or airborne
concentrations are
equipped with explosion relief venting and/or explosion protection.

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 was 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 being located inside a building and lacking explosion
protection systems:
(a)On or about March 19, 2008, and at time prior thereto, in the
Granulated Sugar
Packaging Area (Boschwema Room), three Torit filter-cartridge dust
collectors were
located inside the building and were not equipped with explosion
protection systems on
or about March 20, 2008.
ABATEMENT NOTE:  Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable
abatement method
to correct this hazard is to vent the collectors to a safe, outside
location away from platforms,
means of egress, or other potentially occupied areas.  See NFPA 61,
Standard for the Prevention
of Fires and Dust Explosions in Agricultural and Food Processing
Facilities.
