Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4)(ii): The energy control procedures did not clearly and specifically outline the scope, purpose, authorization, rules, and techniques to be utilized for the control of hazardous energy, including, but not limited to Items of this section: a) 30548 Thorogoods Road Dagsboro, DE: On or about February 1, 2023, the compliance officer observed the energy control procedures did not clearly and specifically outline the scope, purpose, authorization, rules, and techniques to be use for the control of hazardous energy while repairing on the wall within the sand bin or in the recognition of the applicable hazardous energy source beneath the sand [e.g. hatch of the bin]. NOTE: The procedure must contain information which authorized employees must know to safely control hazardous energy. Over generalization can result in a document which has little or no utility to the employee who must follow procedure. However, while the procedure is required to be written in detail, this does not mean that a separate procedure must be written for each and every machine or piece of equipment. Similar machines and/or equipment (those using the same type and magnitude energy) that has the same or similar types of controls can be covered with a single procedure.
