Steps
Fetch 29 CFR 1926.1412 text, focusing on the 'equipment not in regular use' and severe-service provisions
Confirm equipment idle for 3 months or more must be inspected by a qualified person per the monthly-inspection requirements before it is returned to initial use
Confirm severe-service triggers (e.g., loading that may have exceeded rated capacity, shock loading, prolonged exposure to a corrosive atmosphere) require the employer to stop use and have a qualified person inspect for structural damage before the equipment resumes operation
Confirm the qualified person determines which specific items/conditions need inspection given the use/condition, and that deficiencies found trigger the same disposition requirements as a routine inspection
Distinguish this qualified-person-triggered inspection from a routine annual inspection when documenting scope and billing for the inspection company's client
Known gotchas
This trigger is event-based (idle period elapsed, or a severe-service event occurred) rather than calendar-based — do not fold it into the routine monthly/annual inspection schedule as if timing alone satisfies it
The regulation does not enumerate a fixed checklist for 'severe weather' by name — it describes severe-service conditions generally (overload, shock load, corrosive exposure); avoid asserting a specific wind-speed or storm-category trigger not present in the CFR text itself
