Missouri Capitol stone restoration company cited for workplace health violations
The contractor overseeing stone restoration of the Missouri state Capitol has been fined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration for serious alleged violations, though the contractor is appealing OSHA's findings.
Chicago-based Bulley & Andrews Masonry Restoration LLC is overseeing the $28.69 million restoration of much of the Capitol's exterior stone work.
The stone restoration work began in spring 2018 and is planned to be finished by December 2020, in time for the January 2021 Inaugural Ceremonies traditionally held on the Capitol's South Lawn.
OSHA opened its file about Bulley & Andrews' work at the Capitol on Jan. 29, 2019, and unannounced inspection of the work site followed a complaint, according to details available online through OSHA.
