Grain Bin Entry
Entry will be made into a grain bin being reclassified as a non-permit confined space (NPCS) in accordance with Iowa State University’s Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Entry into Grain Bins. This does not constitute as an entry permit and cannot be used for entry into grain bins with moldy or bridging grain or hopper-bottom bins (procedures 5 and 6).
Please enter the grain bin location, date, name, and email in the fields below. By submitting this form, you are confirming that all hazards in the grain bin have been eliminated or controlled from the exterior of the space allowing it to be reclassified as a non-permit confined space, negating the requirement for an entry permit and a minimum of 2 people. Retain a copy of the confirmation email for 1 year to comply with OSHA's regulatory requirements (29 CFR 1910.146).
