Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.22(a)(1): All places of employment, passageways, storerooms, service rooms, and walking-working surfaces were not kept in a clean, orderly, and sanitary condition. (a) On or about July 22, 2019, the sorting department was not clean, orderly or in a sanitary condition, in that waste gun powder was located under the trommel/tumbler when two maintenance employees attempted to install a guard on the trommel by drilling bolt holes through layers of steel with a DeWalt DCF885 Type V 1/4" cordless impact driver that generated sparks, which ignited the waste gun powder under the trommel and caused a fire/explosion that resulted in a fatality and serious injury to another employee.
