Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002C Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(h)(1): The employer did not ensure that all authorized entrants knew the hazards that could be faced during entry, including information on the mode, sign or symptoms, and consequences of the exposure: (a) Clear Creek Skiing Corporation located at 3877 US 6, Georgetown, CO 80444: On and preceding December 28, 2017, the employer did not ensure that all authorized entrants knew the hazards that could be faced during entry. Lift maintenance personnel entered the space adjacent to the Mini Carpet Lift to remove snow and ice and to inspect the rollers with the lift running. The space adjacent to the Mini Carpet Lift consisted of a tunnel approximately 75 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 3 feet high, with only one entrance/exit at the top of the tunnel. The Mini Carpet Lift included a moving conveyor belt and rollers operating through the length of the tunnel, and powered rollers and belt tensioners at one end of the tunnel. The employer did not ensure that all authorized entrants knew the hazards that could be faced during entry, including information on the recognized serious safety hazards. This condition exposed employees to the hazard of getting caught in the rollers and moving parts.
