The Eagle-Tribune reports that: "A North Billerica company charged by a federal agency with safety violations at a local construction site is denying wrongdoing and appealing the $81,000 fine against it."

The company is Interstate Electrical Services Corp and OSHA cited them as a result of an arc flash on November 23, 2011. We [url='http://blog.labelprinters.org/2012/06/osha-cites-north-billerica-mass.html']reported on this OSHA citation[/url] earlier this month. OSHA's press release stated that, "OSHA's Andover Area Office determined that the energized electrical panel was not effectively guarded to prevent workers from coming in contact."
