Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.272(g)(1)(iii): The atmosphere within a bin, silo, or tank in the grain handling facility was not tested for the presence of combustible gases, vapors, and toxic agents prior to employee entry: The employer is failing to ensure employees are protected from the hazard of asphyxiation and/or toxic substances during grain storage bin entry operations. This was most recently documented at 857th Rd and 514th Ave, Clearwater, Nebraska on or about July 5, 2018 and on July 9, 2018 when the employer had employees perform grain bin entries in the North and South bins without testing the atmosphere prior to entry.
