The inspection case was opened on 1996-06-20.

Cumulative penalties significantly exceed the national median for OSHA enforcement actions. The penalty amount suggests multiple high-gravity citations, indicating conditions that presented a substantial probability of death or serious physical harm to employees.

State Context: Within TX, this facility's penalty places it at the 100th percentile among 119,485 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $3,783.80.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 23 citations spanning 3 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 14 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 1 other-than-serious — The violation has a direct relationship to job safety and health but is unlikely to cause death or serious physical harm.

Enforcement Timeline: Citations were issued beginning April 18, 1995 with the latest abatement deadline set for June 30, 2008. Of the 23 total citations, 10 (43%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, which may indicate ongoing compliance gaps requiring further regulatory attention.

The per-citation average of $3,139.13 falls within the standard penalty range.
