Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 007 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.178(c)(2)(iii): Power-operated industrial trucks other than those designated as EX were used in atmospheres containing any of the chemicals referenced in this section in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignitable mixtures and where such concentrations of these gases or vapors exist continuously, intermittently or periodically under normal operating conditions: The employer is failing to protect employees from fire and explosion hazards in that a propane fork lift used in the mixing room was not rated for the environment. This was most recently documented on or about November 22nd, 2016 at the facility located at 1206 Illinois in Neodesha, Kansas, where an employee was operating a propane-powered forklift in the area where this fire and explosion incident occurred.
