General-duty citation text
Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to: a) Employees were exposed to electrical burns or serious injury from electrical power lines in that on or about September 3, 1985, employees were working in close proximity of a 7500 volt single phase electrical power line along County Road 20-1/2 and Weld County Road 7 in Weld County, Colorado. A feasible and useful method to correct the hazard is to insure that the electical power lines are de-energized and visibly grounded and that training rechniques should be devised to insure that safe procedures will be followed when employees are working around electric power lines.
