Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4)(i): Procedures were not developed, documented and utilized for the control of potentially hazardous energy when employees were engaged in activities covered by this section: Production Floor, Machine 412: On, or about, January 10, 2023, the dryer and reel sections of the machine were not de-energized and locked out when tasks were being performed related to the replacement of carrier ropes. Portions of the machine were left running on idle speed which caused portions of the rope system to be in operation in close proximity to where employees had to access the damaged rope that required replacement.
