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 from falling debris from material spilling from a bucket conveyor: a.At the Globe Metallurgical Beverly Plant, located in Waterford, Ohio, there was a struck-by hazard from material, such as gravel, that fell from an Inclined Bucket Conveyor called Elevator #5 because the equipment lacked suitable spill guards. When the Elevator Operator loaded material, such as gravel, into Elevator #5, the material would spill at the head side of the conveyor when all of the gravel was not caught by the discharge chute. Spilled material, such as gravel, would fall approximately 4 stories down the underside of the conveyor, and fall out of holes in the spill guard of the conveyor, which landed in the work area of the Elevator Operator creating a struck-by hazard. b.At the Globe Metallurgical Beverly Plant, located in Waterford, Ohio, there was a struck-by hazard from material, such as gravel, that fell from an Inclined Bucket Conveyor called Elevator #7 because the equipment lacked suitable spill guards. When the Elevator Operator loaded material, such as gravel, into Elevator #7, the material would spill at the head side of the conveyor when all of the gravel was not caught by the discharge chute. Spilled material, such as gravel, would fall approximately 4 stories down the underside of the conveyor, and fall out of holes in the spill guard of the conveyor, which landed in the work area of the Elevator Operator creating a struck-by hazard. Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is to maintain the spill guards for the conveyor in an operational condition as outlined in ASME B20.1-2009, section 5.9.2 (d).2
