Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedures for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the actions listed in and was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6) a. On or about October 13, 2017, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving and rotating parts when they engaged in servicing and maintenance activities on Mill #1, thereby exposing employees to fractures and amputation hazards. The machine was not shut down or turned off prior to engaging in these servicing and maintenance activity. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)]. lockout/tagout device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)(I)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards.
