Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.95(d)(1): When information indicated that any employee's exposure equaled or exceed the 8-hour time-weighted average of 85 decibels, the employer did not develop and implement a monitoring program: a) Build Room: A Builder was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level. The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 253.2% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 96.7 dBA. The sampling was performed for 463 minutes during one shift on 5/3/2023. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time. b) Build Room: A Builder was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level. The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 316.5% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 98.3 dBA. The sampling was performed for 343 minutes during one shift on 5/3/2023. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time. c) Build Room: A Builder was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level. The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 139.1% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 92.4 dBA. The sampling was performed for 396 minutes during one shift on 5/3/2023. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time. d) Saw Room: A Dismantler was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level (Action Level). The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 259.8% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 96.9 dBA. The sampling was performed for 464 minutes during one shift on 5/3/2023. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time. e) Saw Room: A Dismantler was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8-hour time-weighted average sound level. The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 225.9% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 97.3 dBA. The sampling was performed for 395 minutes during one shift on 5/3/2023. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time.
