Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard: UNAPEQUIP

Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The employer did not furnish employment and a place of employment which was free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in that employees were exposed to the hazard of a vehicle without a seat belt for the driver: (a)U.S. Interstate 90 in the vicinity of mile marker # 46: On or about May 24, 2004, and at times prior thereto, operator and/or employees were exposed to the hazard of not having a seat belt for the driver on the Kenworth water truck (vin # 2576393/Montana License # S10960). Among other methods, one feasible and acceptable abatement method to correct this hazard is to follow the US Department of Transportation regulations promulgated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in 49 CFR Part 393.93 requiring every truck and truck tractor manufactured on or after July 1, 1971 to have appropriate seat belt assemblies which conform to the requirements specified in the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 208 (571.208). Notes: (1)Abatement certification and supporting documentation are required for this item. (2)Abatement certification for this item will require an inspection of all trucks and equipment with similar hazards and the taking of corrective action if necessary.
