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broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

At this location, in the wash bays, the employer does not implement
engineering controls such as continuous ventilation for employees involved
in tank cleaning operations.  This violation was observed on or about the
following dates as employees were removing Hexamethylene Diisocyanate
(HDI), without engineering controls to reduce atmospheric contaminants,
from DANA tanker # 1602 in wash bay # 3;
a.August 27th, 2009 an employee removing HDI from the inside
of a tanker was exposed to 1.2254 mg/m3 of HDI.  This
exposure is 8.75 times the NIOSH Ceiling of 0.14 mg/m3.
b.August 27th, 2009 an employee removing HDI from the inside
of a tanker was exposed to 0.3714 mg/m3 of HDI.  This
exposure is 2.65 times the NIOSH Ceiling of 0.14 mg/m3.

in compliance with the standard, including describing the steps it is
taking
to ensure engineering controls are implemented to reduce employee exposure
to airborne contaminants during entry into confined spaces containing toxic
