Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001B 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 August 24, 2022, at an establishment located at 605 Washington Street, in Manitowoc, Wisconsin; Malt House 6, employees were exposed to machine hazards associated with moving parts when they engaged in cleaning activities on the Germ Bed Compartment #2. The employer did not ensure that employees implemented energy control application steps or equivalent protective measures prior to allowing them to perform cleaning activities around the vertical helix augers and energized in-floor auger. The machine was not deenergized prior to the employee engaging in the servicing / maintenance activity. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lockout/tagout device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910(d)(5)(i)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] were not implemented to protect employees from machine hazards. The Briess Industries, Inc. was previously cited for a violation of this occupational safety and health standard, which was contained in OSHA inspection number 1388093, citation number 1 item number 1 and was affirmed as a final order on June 25, 2019, with respect to a workplace located at 625 South Irish Road in Chilton, Wisconsin.
