Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 010C Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.146(c)(4): When the employer decided that its employees would enter permit spaces, the employer did not develop and implement a written permit space entry program that complied with 29 CFR 1910.146: Block Plant, Skip hoist pit: The employer had not developed and documented entry procedures into the pit for regular cleaning. Employees were required to enter the pit 1 to 2 two times per month and perform duties while working under the suspended skip hoist bucket. Abatement Note: The employer may be able to develop and follow procedures that will allow the space to be declassified as a non-permit space once entry procedures have been followed and the employer has documented that all hazards have been eliminated. Ref. 29 CFR 1910.146(c)(7).
