General-duty citation text
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 causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to the hazard of burns due to fire: a) Reddy Ice Group, Inc., 2101 31st Street, Denver, CO: Located in the Sprinkler House inlet building, the Manville brand fiberglass insulation is exposed to heat and ignition sources associated with two electric heaters inside the building. As a result, the combustible paper on the face of the insulation can ignite and burn. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to follow the insulation manufacturers warning that is printed on the face of the insulation. "WARNING: This facing will burn. Do not leave exposed. It must be covered with gypsum board or other code- approved materials and installed in compliance with all building codes. To prevent a fire, keep open flames and other sources of heat away from the facing." Abatement Note: Abatement certification is required for this item (See enclosed "Sample Abatement-Certification Letter").-Certification

General-duty citation text
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 causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to the hazard of "struck by" falling product and materials: a) Reddy Ice Group, Inc., 2101 31st Street, Denver, CO: Located in the freezer unit where crushed ice product is stored on a Prest drive in racking system, employees are exposed to "struck by" hazards associated with falling pallets and/or crushed ice product weighting up to 1800 pounds each. This condition is due to improper maintenance of the supporting rail system used to support the wood pallets. On or about May 20, 2010, several wood pallets placed inside the racking system had excessive space between the supporting rails and the ends of the wood pallets. This condition allowed for the lateral movement and subsequent displacement of the pallet and crushed ice product. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is develop and implement a maintenance program for all drive in rack systems. This maintenance program should include periodic inspections of the metal rail systems that supports the wood pallets. The rail system should be maintained with a distance that does not allow for enough lateral movement of wood pallets to fall from the supporting rails. Abatement Note: Abatement certification is required for this item (See enclosed "Sample Abatement-Certification Letter").-Certification
