Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:

29 CFR 1926.1436(b)(3)(ii): For derricks that are not permanently installed, the load chart must be readily available at the job site to personnel responsible for the operation of the equipment: The employer is failing to provide an appropriate load chart to protect employees from falling or being crushed. This violation was most recently documented on March 25, 2014, when employees were preparing the gin pole to demolish a communication tower by lowering tower sections and components to the ground, but did not know the gin pole load rating nor have a load chart for the gin pole. This requirement is consistent with the industry standard located at ANSI/TIA-1019-A, section 3.5 for gin pole(s) being used at work sites.
