Combustible Dust Audit Checklist for Sawmills
by Wes Peterson, from the Community
This combustible dust audit template guides daily inspections across sawmill and planer mill areas, including tilt hoists, infeed and outfeed, sorter, stacker, planers, chipper rooms, filter island, sawmill lines, basements, PDC rooms, filing room, compressors, energy plant, hog building, and kilns. It verifies primary and secondary dust levels against the 1/8 inch over 5 percent threshold, checks housekeeping and divisional clean-up schedules, and assesses risks from ignition sources and upset conditions. The checklist also reinforces safe practices for compressed air use and includes worker knowledge checks on dust hazards, controls, and responsibilities to maintain compliance and safety.
