29 CFR 1910.272(g)(1)(ii): Prior to entry, all mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic equipment which presented a danger to employees inside grain storage structures in the grain handling facility were not disconnected, locked out and tagged, blocked-off, or otherwise prevented from operating by other equally effective means or methods: On or about August 28, 2014 employees cleaning out bins #1 and #4 were exposed to amputation hazards. Locks or tags were not applied to the augers for bins #1 and #4 to prevent the unexpected start-up or energization resulting in the amputation of the toes of one of the employees.
