Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001A 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: Noise Monitoring was not conducted for employees with the following exposures: a) Building 122: A laborer operating the Ultra Span Hollowcore Extruder was exposed to continuous noise levels in excess of the allowable 8 hour time-weighted average sound level (PEL). The employee's dosimeter dBA level was 148% of the permissible level (90 dBA) and was equivalent to approximately 92.8 dBA. The sampling was performed for 410 minutes during one 8 hr. shift on 12/22/15. Zero exposure was assumed for the unsampled period of time.
