29 CFR 1910.95(i)(2)(i): The employer did not ensure that hearing protectors are worn by an employee who is required by 29 CFR 1910.95(b)(1) to wear personal protective equipment: On October 15, 2018, the blaster was exposed to continuous noise levels at 157.4% of the permissible daily exposure (8-hour, time-weighted average sound level of 90 dbA or equivalently, a dose of 100 percent), during the 145 minute sampling period. The employer did not provide and require hearing protection when required. Exposure calculations include a zero increment for the 335 minutes not sampled.
