Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001C Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1200(h)(3)(iii): Employee training did not include the measures employees can take to protect themselves from chemical hazards, including specific procedures the employer had implemented to protect employees from exposure to hazardous chemicals, such as appropriate work practices, emergency procedures, and personal protective equipment to be used: a) Element Services, LLC at Khaki Campbell East, Hwy 14 and WCR 85, Briggsdale, CO 80611: On and before October 27, 2018, employee training did not include the measures employees can take to protect themselves from the hazards associated with hydrocarbons in tanks. The employer moved two 500 barrel tanks containing residual hydrocarbons onto the site for use in a new tank battery. Employees were involved with setting up and connecting pipes to the tanks, and replacing gaskets on lower access panels. The employer did not train employees on safe work practices when working on the tanks. This condition exposed employees to atmospheric, fire, and explosion hazards. Abatement note: 29 CFR 1926.59 provides that the requirements applicable to construction work are identical to those set forth at 1910.1200 of this chapter. Abatement note: Feasible and effective safe work practices include, but are not limited to, venting the tanks, testing the air in the tanks, and eliminating ignitions sources prior to working on the tanks.
