Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 015 Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.147(d): The established procedure for the application of energy control (the lockout or tagout procedures) was not done in sequence as required by 29 CFR 1910.147(d)(1)-(6): a) Line C- The employer does not ensure that all the steps outlined in 29 CFR 1910.147(d), required for the control of the hazardous energy sources, are performed. Employees do not de-energize and lockout mechanical hazardous energy sources of the Quantum Sauce Depositor E10061 (Model C1203225, Serial C12008400301), located on Line C, prior to conducting cleaning activities. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lock-out/tag-out device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] are not implemented to protect employees from mechanical hazards while employees are conducting cleaning activities on the Quantum Sauce Depositor. Employees are exposed to mechanical hazards. The violation occurred on or about December 16, 2022. b) Line C- The employer does not ensure that all the steps outlined in 29 CFR 1910.147(d), required for the control of the hazardous energy sources, are performed. Employees do not de-energize and lockout mechanical hazardous energy sources of the Quantum Sauce Depositor E10061 (Model C1203225, Serial C12008400301), located on Line C, prior to conducting maintenance activities. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lock-out/tag-out device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] are not implemented to protect employees from mechanical hazards while employees are conducting maintenance activities on the Quantum Sauce Depositor located on Line C. Employees are exposed to mechanical hazards. The violation occurred on or about December 20, 2022. c) Line C- The employer does not ensure that all the steps outlined in 29 CFR 1910.147(d), required for the control of the hazardous energy sources, are performed. Employees do not de-energize and lockout mechanical hazardous energy sources of the Quantum Sauce Depositor E10061 (Model C1203225, Serial C12008400301), located on Line C, prior to conducting quality assurance inspection activities. As a result, the remaining applicable energy control elements, involving machine isolation [1910.147(d)(3)], lock-out/tag-out device application [1910.147(d)(4)], dissipation of residual energy [1910.147(d)(5)], and verification of isolation [1910.147(d)(6)] are not implemented to protect employees from mechanical hazards while employees are conducting inspection activities on the Quantum Sauce Depositor. Employees are exposed to mechanical hazards. The violation occurred on or about December 21, 2022.
