Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001E Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.62(f)(1)(iv): Respirators were not used during periods when respirators were required to provide interim protection for employees while they performed the operations specified in 29 CFR 1926.62(d)(2): PONEMAH MILL, 611 NORWICH AVENUE, TAFTVILLE, CT: On or about and at times prior to April 27, 2017, employees, including subcontractors, who were performing tasks that may have exposed them to lead based paint were not provided with or directed to use respiratory protection. The employer had not conducted an exposure assessment to determine whether employees would be exposed to lead at concentrations greater than the permissible exposure limit. The employer was the General Contractor for the site and had general supervisory authority over the worksite which was an old mill (circa 1860s). Paint that was peeling from the walls was analyzed at the Salt Lake Technical Center and was determined to be positive for lead.
