29 CFR 1910.1025(e)(1)(i): For any employees exposed to lead above the permissible exposure limit for more than 30 days per year the employer did not implement engineering and work practice controls (including administrative controls) were not implemented to reduce and maintain employee exposure to lead : (a) In the Plant facility pouring deck operations, on or about March 29, 2016, the employer did not implement engineering and work practice controls (including administrative controls) for an employee who was operating the furnace deck, was exposed to 0.238 mg/m3 of inorganic lead, which is approximately 4.7 times the Permissible Exposure Limit for inorganic lead of 0.05 mg/m3. The exposure level is derived from a sample collected over a 440 minute sampling period; the calculations include a zero value for the 40 minutes not sampled. (b) In the Plant facility pouring deck operations, on or about March 29, 2016, the employer did not implement engineering and work practice controls (including administrative controls) for an employee who was engaged in pouring operations, was exposed to 0. 0728 mg/m3 of inorganic lead, which is approximately 1.5 times the Permissible Exposure Limit for inorganic lead of 0.05 mg/m3. The exposure level is derived from a sample collected over a 106 minute sampling period; the calculations include a zero value for the 374 minutes not sampled.
