Department of Labor?s Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Case Farms Processing Inc, which operates Case Farms Chicken in Winesburg, for 61 safety and health violations. Violations related to process safety management standards allegedly resulted in an ammonia release 'at the facility on June 30. Proposed tines total $288,000. ?Case Farms Chicken has a legal responsibility to follow established process safety management standards to ensure its Workers are properly protected from known workplace safety and health hazards,? said Deb Zubaty, area director in Columbus. ?Failing to ensure protection through appropriate equipment maintenance, training and adherence to OSHA regulations demonstrates a lack of regard for employees? well~being. OSHA is committed to protecting workers, especially when employers fail to do so.? safety and health inspections were initiated under the agency?s Site-Specific Targeting Program, which focuses enforcement efforts on work sites where the highest rate of injuries and illnesses occur. Of 26 serious health violations, i9 relate to process safety management standards designed to reduce workers? exposure to hazardous chemicals. Areas of deficiency include process safety information, process hazard analysis, operating procedures, employee training, mechaniCal integrity, management of change, incident investigation and response to compliance audits. standards contain specific requirements for the management of hazards associated with processes using dangerous chemicals. Additional information is available online at I The process safety management citations along with those for failing to implement appropriate emergency operations are in reference to Case Farms? inadequate response to an ammonia leak, which coincidentally occurred on the morning OSHA, opened its routine inspection. No injuries or illnesses have yet been reported as a result of the ammonia leak. Of 30 serious safety violations, seven involve failing to provide machine guarding and '16 involve electrical safety standards incltiding unsafe electrical practices that could have resulted in fire, electric shock or arc flash. I The remainder involve failing to previde personal protective equipment to guard workers from falls and electrical hazards, allowing workers to walk on working surfaces without proper protection, and failing to implement and train workers in the use of lockout/tagout procedures to control hazardous energy sources. A serious violation occurs when there is substantial probability that death or serious physiCal harm could result from a hazard about which the employer knew or should have known. more US DEPARTMENT OF LABOR NEWS RELEASE PAGE 2 Five other?than?serious health and safety citations address an additional lockout/tagout de?ciency, as well as a failure to document process safety required tests and incident investigations, record respirator fit tests and provide refresher training to designated first aid providers.

Comments: There was not a photo taken of the opening because the CSHO did not want to be exposed to a hazard.

There was a mid rail but the fall hazard would be into 400 degree water which is Used to take the feathers off the chickens. Instance b: On top of the deboner core line, an employee was observed standing on the top of the conveyor line cleaning and sanitizeing the machines without fail protection thereby exposing employees to a 4'5" fail hazard. The equipment was very wet from the spray of the hot water and soap and not a very stable surface to work on. c. On or about July 7, 2011, the walkway beside the ammonia tank where employees walk from the Supervisors work shop to the-piant was not provided with a fail protection system such as, but not limited to, guardrails thereby exposing employees to a 7 foot fail hazard. This walk from the supervisors office to the plant is made by employees several times a day. ihe employees receive direction trom the supervisor berore going to the plant to complete the work. b) Equipment: Fail protection systems such as, but not limited to, guardrails. c) Location: Instance a: Upper platform in the feather room. Instance b: On top of the deboner core line.

Instance b: 4'5" fall hazard. Instance c: 7 foot fall hazard. 23. Employer Knowledge: Instance a:Yes, the maintenance superVisor knew the employees worked in this area daily when they had to keep the feather chute clear of being ciogged by the feathers coming from the scalder. The hazard was located in'the main walkway between departments and the Electrical supervisor was working within 24' inches of the missing guardraii. The employer made no attempt to correct the problem. Instance b: Yes, the supervisors were interviewed and indicated they knew the employees were on this platform to perform cleaning and sanitation.
