Process Safety Management Progress Report
VIS1A
The following is a summary of progress that has been made toward the compliance of OSHA 29 CFR 1910.119.
EMPLOYEE PARTICIPATION:^-------
To date, approximately 58 employees of the Aberdeen
Plant has been directly involved in the implication of
PSM.
Both hourly and salary employees have worked
together in the planning and execution of the Aberdeen
PSM policy.
PROCESS SAFETY INFORMATION:
Chemical Hazards:
Information pertaining to chemical hazards is available in Material Safety Data Sheets. MSDSs for each area of the plant are maintained by the safety department.
, Vl , 'fit - i
Process Flow Diagrams:
Process flow diagrams have been completed for the VCM tank farm. CAD files have been created for most of the diagrams of the Old Module. The remaining areas of the plant have not been assigned.
'.vlAc
Process Chemistry:
Process chemistry for the identified areas are completed
except for the mechanisms of hydroquinone. R and D is
currently evaluating possible mechanisms.
Chemistry
information is not necessary for the VCM tank farm,
dryers, utilities, and SA module. Water Plant chemistry
has not been completed.
Maximum Intended Inventory: Safe Upper/Lower Limits: Consequences of Deviation:
All of these areas are included in Operating Procedures.
ABDOO109268
Material of Construction:
Material of construction information are included on
P&IDs. All of the equipment for the VCM Tank Farm and
Old Module is completed. The majority of equipment in
the remaining areas is completed. However, there is
still some items that remain to be checked. Updating
the equipment specifications for the New Module and SA
Module is assigned to BKB.
^(pJr yjujpf
l
P&IDs:
P&IDs are completed for all areas of the plant. A system is also in place for the maintenance of these diagrams.
Electrical Classification:
Write ups for existing classified areas are being finalized. Currently, information is being gathered to support the reclassification of P-1. Remaining work has been assigned to WCE and TRM.
Relief Documentation:
Relief Documentation is completed for the VCM Tank Farm and the Old Module. Documentation for the SA Module and New Module is assigned to BKB. The remaining areas have not been assigned.
Material and Energy Balances:
Material and energy balances are only required for the
water plant and the new boiler. The balances have nofe^
been completed on either of these projects.
'r
Safety Systems:
Safety systems for the vinyl area are maintenance in the DCS. '
PROCESS HAZARD ANALYSIS:
PHAs have been completed for the vinyl tank farm and the
Old Module. However results have not been communicated,
potential hazards have'"'"K^t been addressed, and a sighting study has no be conducted. The PHA process
for the New Module, SA^ModuTe, and the catalyst freezeKS
is currently being initiated.
But process safety
information need$ to be completed in these areas before
progress can be made. The remaining areas have not been
..signed,

ABDOO109269
OPERATING PROCEDURES:
Operation procedures are completed for the Old Module
and the Vinyl Tank Farm. Procedures for the Water Plant
are written and awaiting approval.
The writing of
procedures for the New Module and SA Module will be
complete by July 94. The remaining vinyl procedures ^i-s'
scheduled to be completed by December '94. Typing and
approval are still bottle necks in the
?
TRAINING:
,
JDO is handling this. CONTRACTORS: < i- ll /
Amount of progress is uncertain. 4,'jj. f fj' .Vj ` A V > C' /'.J '>
PSSR:
Procedures for Pre-start up Safety Review is currently in place for all area.
MECHANICAL INTEGRITY: Amount of^progress is micertadn^ However responsibility policy is currently^awal'fiYig^Approval.
HOT WORK PERMIT:
Hot work permit program is in place and used throughout the plant.
MOCA:
Management of change procedures are currently being used with all process changes in the plant.
INCIDENT INVESTIGATION:
, 'A
Procedures for the conduct of an incident investigation
is maintained by all areas of the plant.
^
EMERGENCY PLANNING AND RESPONSE:
The plant's emergency response has recently been reviewed and is up to date.
AUDIT:
DCS is coordinating audits on a company wide basis.
