General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1926.651(k)(1): Daily inspections of excavations, the adjacent areas, and protective systems were not made by a competent person for evidence of a situation that could result in possible cave-ins, indications of failure of protective systems, hazardous atmospheres, or other hazardous conditions: a) On or about May 27, 2025, and at times prior, the employer did not ensure that the competent person conducted an adequate inspection of the excavations, surrounding areas and protective systems prior to permitting employees to work in the excavation... Employees were working on an excavation that was in excess of 5 feet in depth without an adequate protective system in place. There was a spoil pile that was stacked on the south side of the trench within 2 feet of the vertical side wall and the competent person did not properly classify the soil at the site. This condition exposed employees to a crushing hazard by trench wall cave-in.

General-duty citation text
29 CFR 1926.652(a)(1): Each employee in an excavation was not protected from cave-ins by an adequate protective system designed in accordance with paragraph (b) or (c) of this section: a) On or about May 27, 2025, and at times prior, the employer did not ensure that each employee working in a trench in excess of 5 feet in depth was adequately protected by a protective system. This condition exposed employees to a crushing hazard by excavation wall cave-in. b) On or about May 27, 2025, and at times prior, the employer did not ensure that employees accessing the site were protected from vertical walls greater than 6 foot. The project access was down the driveway that was cut through a small dirt hill. This created high walls on both west and east sides greater than 6 foot in height. This exposed the employees to crushing hazards and cave-in hazards.
