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employer broke any rule; any findings appear as the citations listed below, and citations can be contested, reduced, or withdrawn.

General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1910.147(d):Application of control. The established procedures for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) shall cover the following elements and actions and shall be done in accordance with the (d)(1) through (d)(6): On or about May 13, 2025, an employee was exposed to the moving blades of an airlock inside the load out of a silo while performing maintenance and servicing activities such as but not limited removing material that was blocking the load out. The employer failed to 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)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
