Employee #1, a member of a tank cleaning crew, was entering ship spaces aboard the USS Kitty Hawk without first measuring the oxygen content.

The oxygen content of space 8-149-9V was 7 percent, as measured with Draeger tubes. The oxygen content of space 4-149-3V was 15 percent, as measured with a MSA Miniguard II Oxy-Comb meter. Employee #1 had not been provided with any training or personal protective equipment. His employer did not have an adequate training program, respirator program, confined space procedures, or other related employee safety programs.
