This has been happening for several years near me, so probably much longer in NY/SF type areas.

It looks a lot more dangerous than it really is.

vvv Well I guess I should never underestimate stupidity in this thread.

I need some advice regarding my current work situation. I work as a power equipment mechanic and we had a pallet of equipment collapse yesterday (in the area where a guy works, thankfully he went home early), which really shocked me into potentially reporting my business for unsafe practices. There's a laundry list of things I find completely wrong with the place: numerous electrical code violations, open 5 gallon buckets of gasoline in a storage shed behind our building, 2 stroke gas stored inside under the bench where we use the propane torch to melt the ends for starter rope, grinders without shields, leaks through the roof (one was through the ceiling fan in a back room), moving 20ft tall pallets of equipment with the forklift with others around. I'm sure I could come up with more if I thought about it, but that's just off the top of my head. We also wash off equipment with a pressure washer and have oil/fuel runoff that isn't contained.

My question is, what governing body would I be best with reporting anonymously to in California, CAL/OSHA or CARB? I'm not looking to bury the business, but to just reign in some of the lunacy we have going on, because the owner/manager doesn't seem to give a poo poo when I bring anything up to him.

you really should include Cal/OSHA among those you notify, since there are fairly clear current safety issues in addition to the past ones you've mentioned, and as someone else noted, you may save yourself or someone else an injury

not sure whether Cal/OSHA is an outlier but the typical OSH response is one or more citations for a few thousand dollars each, not facility shutdown

I thought air fines were serious business in California because smoggy LA is still in living memory. That is a violation could easily gut the working capital in a fly by night shop and at best your paychecks start coming in a month late.

Interned in paper manufacturing in California and the bit of hardware that adds lotion to tissues straight up had a hood for VOC recovery. Any failure to follow procedure around it was grounds for instant dismissal, which is unique in my experience for being the only no tolerance rule based on environmental issues instead of personal safety.

Yeah, California doesn't gently caress around with emissions. I had to go to a jobsite in California back in December to get a commercial burner in line before the whole boiler was marked unfit and had to be replaced entirely and this was a new installation. They also have their emissions measuring devices that they hit individual stacks with from the street, primarily concerned about NOx numbers.

So what happens with something like that, I mean, there's not much to recover I imagine. Does the insurance company just pay out and it lies there for whoever to do whatever with? Or is the owner responsible for removing it?

Whenever it gets stormy here (lol socal, so never) a few sailboats inevitably wash up on local beaches, then just sit there until the earth claims them again.

Insurance will pay for its removal. If no one did anything, the municipality would contract out removal and pursue the owner to recover costs in addition to fining the poo poo out of them.

Same thing happens when some idiot loses their truck through thin ice on a lake... insurance pays for removal or the DNR puts the owner in a world of poo poo.
