SUBJECT: TABLE TOP DRILLS
A series of table top drill discussions were held on shift. The discussions covered four specific emergency situations, 1) VCM Sphere leak at the outlet flange, 2) Propane tank farm disaster, 3) Tornado, and 4) VCM receiver sightglass failure. Lab, Vinyl, Yard, Safety, Compound and Maintenance participated. Vinyl and the Lab were at all discussions others attended as time permitted. There were many questions and suggestions from these discussions.
VCM Sphere
1) Who does the first aid if there are too many injured for the first lab crew?
2) Who directs the ambulance at night? 3) Are there enough SCOTT air packs in area for disaster? 4) More training needed on specific duties. 5) Work needs to be done on the GAITRONICS.
Propane
1) Are there enough SCOTT air packs in the propane area? 2) Mr. Walden, house east of tanks, must be notified immediately.
Tornado
1) Should there be a bad weather announcement? 2) Where do contractors, compound, etc. evacuate in a tornado? 3) Would like to see video tapes of tornado disasters? 4) Does the lab have enough SCOTT air packs? 5) Does compound need NOAH weather radio?
VCM Siahtolass
All questions were repeats from previous sessions.
These comments and questions were condensed eliminating repeats.
The one comment that all groups expressed concern over was the
GAITRONICS and paging system.
It is difficult to hear
announcements in many areas of the plant.

The safety department and drill team will answer these questions and include comments where necessary in the emergency handbook.
We appreciate your cooperation in these discussions and welcome any suggestions to improve our emergency drills.
