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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.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 1910.95(c)(1): The employer did not administer a continuing, effective hearing conservation program as described in 29 CFR 1910.95(c) through (o) whenever employee noise exposures equal or exceed an 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 decibels measured on the A scale, or equivalently a dose of fifty percent: Employees were exposed to hazards associated with exposure to excessive noise. The employer had not implemented an effective hearing conservation program for employees exposed to noise above 85 decibels. Employees working in the following locations were exposed to noise equal to or exceeding an 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 decibels measured on the A scale. (1) An employee working at the big mill was exposed to continuous noise levels at 155% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 93.1 dBA. The sampling was performed for 459 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017. (2) An employee working at the rip saw area was exposed to continuous noise levels at 72.3% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 87.6 dBA. The sampling was performed for 235 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017. (3) An employee working at the big mill was exposed to continuous noise levels at 211.9% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 95.4 dBA. The sampling was performed for 452 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017. (4) An employee working at the big mill was exposed to continuous noise levels at 135.3% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 92.1 dBA. The sampling was performed for 449 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017. (5) An employee working at the rip saw area was exposed to continuous noise levels at 206.5% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 95.2 dBA. The sampling was performed for 459 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017.

29 CFR 1910.95(g)(1): The employer did not establish and maintain an audiometric testing program as provided by 29 CFR 1910.95(g) by making audiometric testing available to all employees whose exposures equal or exceed an 8-hour time-weighted average of 85 decibels: Employees were exposed to hazards associated with exposure to excessive noise. The employer had not implemented an audiometric testing program for employees exposed to noise above 85 decibels. Audiometric testing had not been provided to assess the effects of noise exposure on employee hearing. Employees working in the following locations were exposed to noise equal to or exceeding an 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 decibels measured on the A scale. (1) An employee working at the big mill was exposed to continuous noise levels at 155% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 93.1 dBA. The sampling was performed for 459 minutes during one shift on March 16, 2017. (2) An employee working at the rip saw area was exposed to continuous noise levels at 72.3% of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 dBA or an equivalent sound level of approximately 87.6 dBA.

29 CFR 1910.95(k)(1): The employer did not train each employee who is exposed to noise at or above an 8-hour time-weighted average of 85 decibels in accordance with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.95(k). The employer did not institute a training program and ensure employee participation in the program: Employees were exposed to hazards associated with exposure to excessive noise. The employer had not provided training for employees exposed to noise above 85 decibels. Employees working in the following locations were exposed to noise equal to or exceeding an 8-hour time-weighted average sound level of 85 decibels measured on the A scale.
