Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(c)(2): If the workplace contains permit spaces, the employer shall inform exposed employees, by posting danger signs or by any other equally effective means, of the existence and location of and the danger posed by the permit spaces. (a)Anderson Tank & Trailer Service, Inc., @ 6087 East 52nd. Ave., Commerce City, CO 80022: On and before January 15th, 2015, the employer did not ensure that each employee was informed, by posting danger signs or by any other equally effective means, of the existence and location of and the danger posed by the permit confined spaces when employees were required to perform activities such as, but not limited to: tank cleaning; tank inspections; welding; and grinding operations. This condition exposed the employees to welding fume and oxygen deficient atmospheres while working inside the compartmented cargo tanks. Abatement Note: A sign reading "DANGER-PERMIT-REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE, DO NOT ENTER" or using other similar language would satisfy the requirement for a sign.
