General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1910.119(l)(1): The employer did not establish or implement written procedures to manage changes to process chemicals, technology, equipment, and procedures, and changes to facilities that affect a covered process. The employer is failing to protect employees from hazards related to exposures to highly hazardous chemicals. This was most recently documented on January 10, 2023, at the worksite located at 299 Extension Street, Verona, Missouri. The employer did not implement a written management of change procedures when replacing a vessel in Area B with a new vessel. The employer removed a glass lined vessel from Area B, in building V10 and replaced it with a stainless-steel vessel. The stainless-steel vessel is not a "replacement in kind," as the size of the stainless-steel vessel was larger than the glass lined vessel, thus increasing the capacity of the vessel, which leads to an increase in the amount of the highly hazardous chemicals used to manufacture choline chloride and/or choline bitartrate.
