General-duty citation text

29 CFR  1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the actions listed in and was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6):   a) NOX US, LLC - Fostoria, Ohio: On or about April 29, 2023, the employer does not protect employees from pinch points and rotating part hazards in that the Lamination Line 2 is not locked out prior to employees performing set-up activities, clearing jams, and cleaning under the equipment, where powered rollers are energized.   This violation most recently occurred on April 29, 2023 when the employer did not implement energy control application steps as the machine was not shut down or turned off to perform the servicing work [per the 1910.147(d)(2) requirements].  As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device application [(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
