KAJIMA-MARRA/MAJESTIC J.V.

According to U.S. Department of Labor enforcement records, KAJIMA-MARRA/MAJESTIC J.V. — a industry sector 00 facility located at 37 ATLAS STREET, TOWN BROOK ROCK TUNNEL, QUINCY, MA 02169 — was the subject of a formal OSHA inspection that resulted in 71 citation(s) and cumulative proposed penalties of $64,100.00. The inspection case was opened on 1995-02-08.

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 MA, this facility's penalty places it at the 100th percentile among 60,671 inspected facilities. The statewide average penalty is $2,824.83.

Citation Analysis: The inspection produced 71 citations spanning 9 distinct OSHA regulatory standards. The citation breakdown includes: 9 serious — A workplace hazard that could cause death or serious physical harm exists, and the employer knew or should have known about the condition. 6 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 January 25, 1995 with the latest abatement deadline set for May 5, 1995. Of the 71 total citations, 15 (21%) have been marked as abated in DOL records, which may indicate ongoing compliance gaps requiring further regulatory attention.

Penalty Assessment: The cumulative penalty of $64,100.00 reflects OSHA's gravity-based penalty calculation methodology, which considers the severity of potential injury, the probability of occurrence, the employer's size, good faith, and violation history. The per-citation average of $902.82 falls within the standard penalty range.

The enforcement profile for the Kajima-Marra/Majestic joint venture at the Town Brook Rock Tunnel reflects a systemic failure to manage the high-risk environmental hazards inherent to underground construction. With 71 total citations and an aggregate penalty exceeding $64,000—a substantial sum for the mid-1990s regulatory landscape—the inspection revealed a pervasive lack of oversight regarding life-safety fundamentals. The citation pattern indicates critical deficiencies in three primary areas: atmospheric protection, electrical integrity, and mechanical guarding.
