At the facility located on 4500 Carmichael Ave., Sarasota, FL, the fabricator involved in the daily activities of cutting, grinding and buffing granite material on 12/04/2013 was exposed to respirable dust containing 12% crystalline silica (quartz) at a TWA level of 1.85 mg/m3, approximately 2.6 times the OSHA-PEL of 0.714 mg/m3; this limit is established to prevent silicosis. The fabricator was using portable air-operated equipment during a full day shift. The exposure level is derived from a sample collected during a 445 minute period. ABATEMENT NOTES: General methods of control applicable in these circumstances include, but may not be limited to, the following: 1. The use of wet methods and/or tools equipped with water spraying system. 2. Increasing the air flow throughout the work area. 3. Redesign bench layout to maximize dust capture and/or removal relative to workers position. 4. Utilize a local exhaust system equipped with HEPA filters to capture dust particles MULTI-STEP ABATEMENT PROCEDURES: STEP 1: Due (30 days from issue) Effective respiratory protection shall be provided to and used by exposed employees as an interim protective measure until feasible engineering and / or administrative controls can be implemented or whenever such controls fail to reduce employee exposure to within permissible exposure limits. STEP 2: Due (60 days from issue) A written detailed plan of abatement shall be submitted to the Area Director outlining a schedule for the implementation of engineering and / or administrative measures to control employee exposures to hazardous substances as referenced in this citation. The plan shall include, at a minimum, target dates for the following actions which must be consistent with the dates required by this citation: 1. Evaluation of engineering / administrative control options; 2. Selection of optimum control methods and completion design; 3. Procurement, installation and operation of selected control measures; 4. Testing and acceptance or modifications / redesign of controls. All control measures shall be evaluated for each particular use by a competent industrial hygienist or other technically qualified person. 90-days progress reports are required during the abatement period. STEP 3: Due (120 days from issue) Abatement shall have been deemed completed by the implementation of feasible engineering and / or administrative controls with verification/followup personal sampling. |
