Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) did not cover the actions listed in and was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): On or about January 18, 2024, an employee was exposed to amputation hazards while working on Lower Conveyor #1 in the tunnel beneath the facility. The employer failed to implement energy control application steps. As a result, energy control elements, involving machine isolation [(d)(3)], LOTO device applications [(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [(d)(6)], were not implemented to protect employees from machine servicing hazards, at the Bethany, Illinois facility.
