Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.652(b)(2): Option (2) - Determination of slopes and configurations using Appendices A and B. Maximum allowable slopes, and allowable configurations for sloping and benching systems, shall be determined in accordance with the conditions and requirements set forth in appendices A and B to this subpart. The employer is failing to protect employees from cave-in hazards associated with trenching and excavation work. This was most recently documented at Hwy 35 and Pasewalk Rd, Norfolk, Nebraska on October 30, 2019, when employees were working in an excavation that was 12 feet deep and loose soil rolled off the face of the excavation resulting in injuries to 1 employee.
