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 an exploding boiler hazard while working on or near the boiler located in the production area. a) At the time of the inspection and up to a year prior the boiler secondary shut off was by- passed in order to get the boiler to operate without shutting off. The following problems were found; b) There was no secondary shut-off that would prevent over-pressure build-up in the boiler as required in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV-1974, Heating Boilers, Article 6, Instruments, Fittings and Controls, HG-604 Pressure Control which states: "Each automatically fired steam boiler shall be protected from over pressure by two pressure operated controls." Among other methods, feasible and acceptable abatement means to correct these haards include, but are not limited to: Replace the faulty secondary shutoff switch with a fully functional switch and eliminate the by- pass wiring. Abatement certification and abatement documentation is required for this violation. The documentation should include written verification of abatement, applicable measurements or monitoring results, and photographs or videos which you believe will be helpful. The abatement certification sheet is enclosed with the citation(s).
