Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard: REFINERY
29 CFR 1910.146(c)(8)(iv): When an employer arranged to have employees of another employer (contractor) perform work that involved permit space entry, the host employer did not coordinate entry operations with the contractor, when both host employer personnel and contractor personnel would be working in or near permit spaces as required by 29 CFR 1910.146(d)(11): Employees entered tank 242 under a confined space permit to perform maintenance and cleaning. Entry of the contractor employees was not coordinated with Marathon in that no provisions were made on the permit so that they could be kept in communication while they were out of view in the space working above the floating roof repairing seals.
