Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.307(a)(4): Division and zone classification. In Class I locations, an installation must be classified as using the division classification system meeting paragraphs (c), (d), (e), and (f) of this section or using the zone classification system meeting paragraph (g) of this section. In Class II and Class III locations, an installation must be classified using the division classification system meeting paragraphs (c), (d), (e), and (f) of this section. (a) On or about February 3, 2025, the employer did not correctly classify the work area known as the cladding room in the Cermet Department as a Class II work location due to the use of combustible aluminum powder which exposed employees to dust deflagration hazards while working near an indoor enclosureless dust collector used to collect fugitive dust emissions from screening and mixing equipment.
