29 CFR 1910.1027(d)(3)(ii): When the initial monitoring or periodic monitoring indicated that employee exposures were below the action level, the employer did not confirm that result by the results of another monitoring taken at least seven days later: (a)Hill Air Force Base, at 7290 Weiner Street, Hill Air Force Base, UT: On and preceding 3/2/11, when the initial monitoring or periodic monitoring indicated that employee exposures were below the action level, Hill Air Force Base did not confirm that result by the results of another monitoring taken at least seven days later. Employees abrasively blasted aircraft parts in Building 220. The metal treatment contained cadmium. This process generated cadmium dust. The employer had performed monitoring on 4/10/08 and determined employee exposure to be below the Action Level. The employer did not perform additional monitoring to confirm the sampling result of 4/10/08. The employer has not sampled for cadmium at this operation since 4/10/08. This condition potentially exposed employees to a cadmium hazard.
