Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.602(c)(1)(ii): No modifications or additions which affect the capacity or safe operation of the equipment shall be made without the manufacturer's written approval. If such modifications or changes are made, the capacity, operation, and maintenance instruction plates, tags, or decals shall be changed accordingly. In no case shall the original safety factor of the equipment be reduced. a. Located at the PDC Stiers Well Pad site in Salesville,Ohio, there were employees hoisting approximately 3,200 pound fracking tank walls by use of a forklift that had a lifting device attached to the forks that did not have an identification tag attached to indicate the lifting device's capacity nor did the employer have written approval from the manufacturer, thereby exposing the employees to a struck-by and/or caught-between hazard.
