Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(d)(5)(i):Test conditions in the permit space to determine if acceptable entry conditions exist before entry is authorized to begin, except that, if isolation of the space is infeasible because the space is large or is part of a continuous system (such as a sewer), pre-entry testing shall be performed to the extent feasible before entry is authorized and, if entry is authorized, entry conditions shall be continuously monitored in the areas where authorized entrants are working; On or about June 7, 2021, employees were exposed to atmospheric hazards while entering sewer manholes due to the fact the Employer failed to ensure pre-entry testing.
