General-duty citation text

29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4)(ii):     The energy control procedures did not clearly and specifically outline the scope, purpose, authorization, rules, and techniques to be utilized for the control of hazardous energy, including, but not limited to Items of this section:    Throughout the Facility:  Lockout/tagout procedures did not meet the requirements outlined above.  The developed procedures are vague in that they do not clearly specify the techniques in which lockout operations will be performed and they do not clearly indicate the locations where energy may be isolated (switches, valves, breaker numbers, etc).     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 citations.
