OSHA opens inspections for many reasons — routine scheduling under a national or local emphasis program, an employee complaint or referral, or a follow-up after a reported injury. Opening or conducting an inspection is not itself an allegation or a finding that this employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

29 CFR 1910.37(a)(3): Exit route(s) were not kept free and unobstructed: Yosemite National Park, Warehouse: In the northwest corner of the warehouse, a fitness area had been fenced off in such a way as to block an exit door. The lighted "exit" sign above the door was visible over and through the chain-link fence around the fitness area. Employees pick up supplies from the warehouse early in the morning when visibility in the warehouse is low, and would not be able to see the fencing or be aware that the exit was obstructed, while moving towards the lighted exit sign.
