Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970: The
employer did not furnish
employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized
hazards that were
causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees in
that employees were
exposed to the hazard of falling into a tank containing crude oil:
a)On January 2, 2002, an employee was in the process of retrieving a
vacuum hose
from a hole in the top of a skimmer tank and he sat down on top of the
tank to
perform this task.  Suddenly, the tank's roof (top) collapsed under him
and he fell
into the oil and water mixture that was inside the tank.
Among others, one feasible and acceptable method to correct this hazard is
to inspect the
tank in accordance with American Petroleum Institute Standard 653, 1992
edition,
Section 4, Paragraph 4.1, which states, "Tanks shall be inspected by a
qualified
inspector" and Section 4, Paragraph 4.3.1.2 which states, "This routine
in-service
inspection will include a visual inspection of the tank's exterior surface
checking for:
leaks; shell distortions; signs of settlement; corrosion; and the
condition of the
foundation."
