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 struck by hazards: South end of the building, southeast corner of the workplace, plastic piping: On or about July 22, 2010. and at other times prior thereto, the employer did not ensure that schedule 40 plastic piping was not used for the shop compressed air line. The use of this line whose pressure operated at 170 psi exposed employees engaged in workplace support activities to accidental contact with flying segments of broken piping in violation of American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) D1785-86 Standard Specification for Polyvinyl Chloride Plastic Pipe, Schedules 40, 80, and 120. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable means of abatement would be to replace the existing PVC piping with steel pipe or a type suitable for the transmission of compressed gases.
