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 likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees, in that,
employees
were
exposed to struck-by/crushing hazards due to an inadvertent release of the

sheave block was damaged
from wear and side loading of the hoist, the hook was missing its keeper,
and the pendant
control was not marked to indicate the direction of hook travel.  The
condition of one or more
crane components could expose employees to being struck-by four foot
diameter pipe casings
that weigh up to two tons while operating in near proximity of the load.
