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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act: 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 the potential hazard of exposure to high concentrations of
anhydrous
ammonia from pressure safety relief valves:
a.)On or about January 27, 2009, and at times prior thereto, the discharge
from the
pressure safety relief valves from the anhydrous ammonia refrigeration
system was
not piped to the outdoor atmosphere to a safe location as follows:
1)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia compressor was within 66 inches
above ground level.
2)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia low pressure receiver was at 72
inches above ground level.
3)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia high pressure receiver was
inside
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 the potential hazard of exposure to high concentrations of
anhydrous
ammonia from pressure safety relief valves:
a.)On or about January 27, 2009, and at times prior thereto, the discharge
from the
pressure safety relief valves from the anhydrous ammonia refrigeration
system was
not piped to the outdoor atmosphere to a safe location as follows:
1)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia compressor was within 66 inches
above ground level.
2)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia low pressure receiver was at 72
inches above ground level.
3)The discharge from the anhydrous ammonia high pressure receiver was
inside
the compressor room.
Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to
correct this hazard
is to ensure that the discharge from the pressure-relief devices to the
atmosphere is not less
than 15 feet above the adjacent ground level and to prevent spraying of
refrigerant on
persons in the vicinity in accordance with the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI)
and International Institute of Ammonia Refrigeration (IIAR) 2-1999 Section
7.3.2 and the
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers
