Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4)(ii)(B): The energy control procedures did not clearly and specifically outline procedural steps for shutting down, isolating, blocking and securing machines or equipment to control hazardous energy: On or before 8/10/2011, the procedure for locking out the Harris (HSC) shear for servicing did not include specific and updated information on the equipment and locations to block the clamp and shear crosshead. a.) The procedure references "pins" for the crosshead without identifying the change in blocking device and a specific location when an I-beam was placed on either side of that component. b.) The procedure references pins for the clamp, without identifying the sequence to check that they were properly installed. c.) The procedure does not identify the process or requirement for an orderly check that all lockout elements had been implemented correctly during a group lockout process.
