Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.147(c)(6)(i)(B): The periodic inspection of the energy control procedure was not conducted to correct any deviations or inadequacies: a. The annual inspection did not correct numerous deficiencies with the written lockout procedures, such as not including all energy sources on the procedures such as gravity, energy sources not identified with the machines de-energized, incorrect information about "main" energy sources, no specificity for how to test for energy isolation, not identifying all energy sources on the written procedures, incorrect energy isolation equipment listed (such as handles existing instead of knobs, or quick disconnects instead of handles), not identifying equipment as missing devices so that lockout could be made, such as pneumatic handles that could not accept a lock to prevent re-energization, and mislabeling of energy sources. Abatement certification and abatement documentation is required for this violation. The documentation should include written verification of abatement, applicable measurements or monitoring results, and photographs or videos which you believe will be helpful. The abatement certification sheet is enclosed with the citation(s).
