Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.101(b): "Compressed gases." The in-plant handling, storage, and utilization of all compressed gases in cylinders, portable tanks, rail tankcars, or motor vehicle cargo tanks were not in accordance with Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet P-1-1965, which is incorporated by reference as specified in Sec. 1910.6. The employer is failing to protect employees from fire and explosion hazards. This was most recently documented at the jobsite located at or near 3801 S Oliver St. in Wichita Kansas. Building 3-187S in the maintenance shop, the employer did not remove or separate compressed gas cylinders (3 pressurized cylinders, ranging from 14.1oz to 16oz) that were stored with highly flammable substances such as but not limited to flammable lubricants in a yellow cabinet, labeled FLAMMABLE.
