Establishments are matched across agencies using normalized employer name, state, and ZIP code. This establishment resolves to the parent rollup Austin Powder Company, which operates 22 establishments in our dataset.
OSHA citations typically appear 3–8 months after the inspection, so very recent enforcement actions may not yet be reflected.
