General-duty citation text
North Carolina General Statute 95-129(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of North Carolina: The employer did not furnish each of his employees conditions of employment and a place of employment free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to electrical hazards from improper use of temporary wiring and exposure to live electrical parts. a) Four trailers comprising a temporary labor camp located on Davis Hardy Road Kinston, NC 28502--Four trailers were occupied by 17 migrant farm workers while the following electrical hazards were present: Light fixture not sufficiently secured to ceiling and wall outlet missing cover, allowing for live wires rated at 110 volts to be exposed in trailer #2 (white/gray trim). Electrical outlets, located less than six feet from water sources in the kitchens and bathrooms of all four trailers, were not ground faulted. Temporary flexible extension cords and light fixtures with spliced wires was used in lieu of permanent wiring throughout all four trailers. Washing machine that was placed outside of trailer #1(light tan/brown trim), was not protected from the natural elements. Among others, one feasible and acceptable method of abating these violations is properly install the washing machine in an appropriate manner where exposure to the natural elements is eliminated and eliminate all temporary wiring being used on a permanent basis and have all corrections made that meet NEC and local building code requirements.
