Apab Subject August 14, 1984 South Charleston Plant Winterization During the 1983 Christmas Holidays we were hit with severe winter weather that cost the plant several hundred thousand dollars. Several units Incurred less damage than others due to winterization of facilities before the cold weather. I suggest that each of you review your area of responsibility and make sure that you are adequately protected this year. This Is normally one of our "long suits" and we were caught by particularly severe weather last year. However, we do have room for Improvement in some areas and I expect you will take appropriate action for correction. You may want to talk to some of your peers that had good success last year.

Rossi Polyols Technical Staff FROM: D. H. Ott SUBJECT: Winterization Planning and Maintenance Work Just as a follow-up to our discussions last week: 1. Work scope/job lists are fairly well defined. Phase IV area is more straightforward than the Bldg. 103 area. 2. Priority of work should be done in a way to give us an : equipment system one at a time. The following basic guideline should be used. Phase IV Bldg. 103 1st SS/EB's 1 St SS/EB's 2nd Utility Supplies 2nd Utility Supplies 3rd #7 Rx, IX 3rd #3 Polymer 4th Isop Recovery 4th #1 Flex and #5 IX 5th #8 Rx, IX 5th #2 Polymer 6th #9 Rx, IX 6th #3 Flex and #1 IX 7th n Flex and #2 IX 8th Butyl Chloride 3. Insulation work appears to be a critical. Job vs. manpower must be addressed by Maintenance management. UCC 003192 2- - September 24, 1984 4. I am looking for a weekly update of progress against total planned work. This needs to be quantified well enough to be able to judge if resources will meet need. 5. Be sure that SO's are written to be able to collect up the costs associated with winterization. 6. I want to approve overtime associated with winterization preventative work. DHO/cgb D. H.

W. Phair Mr. R. P. Fulknier Mr, W. A. Garrett Data October 23, 1980 Originating Dept- RECEIVED n *r* - IS80 Si jUfCinc RP^^ - Project Insulation Crew * s " " ?'iKnier The work of the Project Insulation Crew on the plant's main steam headers will be completed within the next 2-3 weeks. We need to set direction for future utilization of these people. Experience at other UCC locations, discussions with you and members of the Maintenance Management Team, plus input from Operating Department Heads and C. E. Fry, all suggest that we should consider retention of this insulation crew to upgrade insulation within our operating units. This conclusion is supported strongly by members of the present crew. All respondents feel that the plant's present insulation needs can most effectively be addressed by a combina tion of project crew and our regular area insulators. The project crew is to concentrate on preplanned "blocks" of upgrading, with the area insulators attend ing to miscellaneous insulation work associated with day-to-day unit repairs or alterations. We propose to form a standing Project Insulation Crew of 10 people, plus its own supervisor. Past efforts to effectively use such a crew under the direction of the insulator supervisor in the particular area where work was being carried out have not proved to be successful on a continuing basis. They did not receive sufficient supervisory attention, and there was a tendency for their efforts to be dissipated on day-to-day miscellaneous stripping and repair work. The proposed crew would be used solely for upgrading work, planned in advance in conjunction with the operating department receiving the service. The Area Maintenance organization would neither borrow crew personnel, nor be associ ated with their supervision. To help assure this separation, it is proposed that the crew's second-level of supervision be provided by E. 0. (Dick) Harrah, whose qualifications include a past assignment as head of our old Area 6. We are now in the process of identifying "blocks" of insulation upgrading work within each operating department in the plant. A block of such work is roughly defined as any combination of line, vessel, or equipment insulation within a department that meets the following criteria: 1) A minimum of one week and a maximum of 2-3 weeks of work for the proposed crew, and 2) Is con fined to a small enough geographical area of the particular unit to permit effective hour-to-hour supervision. The concensus is that scattered work, or longer intervals of concentration, would promote lower productivity. UCC 003202 Mr. L. W. Phair -2- October 23, 1980 When identified, blocks of upgrading work would be scheduled on a plant-wide priority basis, considering input from both the involved departments and C. E. Fry. Prior U/A would be secured with the owning Department Head as to the scope of each block, the duration of work, and the probable cost. Re quired materials for each job would be on site before work started, and would be secured before the preceding job was completed. Progress reports on each block of work would be prepared as the job moved toward completion to assure that commitments were met, or deviations were understood and accepted. Crewrelated costs will be assigned to a new account, 327440, so they can be separated from area insulation work both on a departmental and a plant-wide basis. The present steam-line crew would serve as the nucleus for formation of the new crew, with some limited personnel changes. Such changes would provide an appropriate craftsman-apprentice balance, and assure that all members of the new crew were assigned at their election. Future crew assignments would be made as necessary to maintain these conditions, where possible. We suggest that the new crew be housed in Bldg. 428, using existing crew facilities, and that we continue our present practice of providing transportation to the current job site. ` If this approach to plant insulation receives your endorsement, we would intend to sustain it as long as meaningful crew-type work was available, and our clients agreed that the approach was cost-effective. A failure to meet either of these necessary conditions would initiate an immediate review of our approach, to alter or eliminate the special crew. As expressed earlier, there is a broad concensus in support of this proposal. Your endorsement, and that of the other managers is solicited. Also solicited is approval to recognize the contributions of the present crew's up graded supervisor, Mr. W. 8. (Bill) Spurlock. We reconmend that he be promoted to Maintenance Supervisor and be assigned responsibility for the new crew, reporting to Dick Harrah. He has demonstrated an ability to get the work done, not only on the steam headers but on the recent EO line repair job which called for the insulation of 2500 feet of 2-inch line on a crash basis. He has the support of the present crew, as well as the Maintenance Management Team. We have reviewed the potential to promote a female, minority, or younger craftsman, and conclude that this opening does not represent a viable opportunity for such a promotion. This promotion will not detract from our ability to meet the 1981 exempt head count limit in Maintenance. Please advise as to how we should proceed. JSC:mb UCC 003203 Profo-Bag I CUSTODIAL/MAINTENANCE WORKERS' ASBESTOS SAFETY BAG Asbestos-covered pipes pose serious potential problems for the owners and operators of private buildings and industrial facilities. Contamina tion can be released into the air by deterioration as well as by removal, emergency repairs and routine main tenance work on joints, valves, fittings and hangers. Because custodial and mainte nance personnel can be particularly vulnerable to the long-term effects of this contamination, government authorities now require strict pro cedures for all asbestos-related work. The Profo-Bag- is a portable, sealed workspace which holds in air borne contamination created by work on a pipe. Properly used, the ProfoBag- can reduce the exposures of your personnel at the same time it reduces the costs associated with such work. For instance, federal as bestos guidelines require that a building space be enveloped, or "contained," in an airtight seal of polyethylene before work begins. Profo-Bag offers quick, efficient method for performing work or, and around asbestos-covered pipes. ~ However, by using a Profo-Bag' for work on small runs of pipe, the need for costly containment tents and decontamination chambers is eliminated. In 1983, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency completed its analysis of the new Profo-Bag, or "glove bag," technique and recom mended its use in the new federal asbestos guideiines. At the same time, in its recent feasibility study, the U.S. Navy reported Profo-Bag technology to be "a workable solu tion" which takes "about one-fifth the man-hours required for a standard containment tent." The 7-mil, 50" X 64" Profo-Bag is a sealed work space accessible by poly-coated Tyvek sleeves. This sleeve coating prevents microscopic contamination from escaping through the porous Tyvek fabric. Sleeves are heat-sealed to the main body of the bag to guarantee the maximum in air-tightness and seam strength. When full, the bag serves as its own asbestos disposal container, complete with required warnings. ACTI also offers a worker's manual and video tape explaining exactly how to plan and execute a Profo-Bagproject. Asbestos Control Technology, Inc. P.O. Box 183, Maple Shade.

Southard DATE: September 25, 1986 SUBJECT: New Asbestos Construction Standard Attached for your information is a summary of the Asbestos Construction Industry Standard. This standard establishes a permissible exposure level of 0.2 fibers per cubic centimeter which represents an order of magnitude reduction in comparison with the prior limit of 2 fibers per cubic centimeter. If you have any questions, please contact me at your convenience. WJV/yc 1692A Attachment UCC 003210 SUMMARY OF THE CONSTRUCTION STANDARD The construction standard has nine (9) appendices. Appendices A, C, D, and E are mandatory. The other five (5) B, F, G, H, and J, are non-mandatory. KEY POINTS P. E. L. (Permissible Exposure Limit) = 0. 2 - Fibers per cubic centimeter of air determined as an 8-hour time - weighted average airborne concentration. Triggers restricted areas, respiratory protection, protective clothing, and other requirement. fction Level = 0.1 f/cc as an 8-hour TWA. Triggers exposure monitoring, worker training, medical monitoring. No Ceiling Limit Separate Standards - Apply to general industry and to construction, because of differences in work forces and work sites. (Industry's fixed site manufacturing workplace, long term employees versus construction's short-term projects, temporary work sites, highly mobile work force, and unique characteristics of some operations.) Both standards provide requirements for methods of compliance, personal protective equipment, employee monitoring, medical surveillance, communication of hazards to employees, regulated areas, housekeeping procedures, and record keeping. UCC 003211 2- - Scope and Application of the Construction Standard The construction standard is geared to apply increasingly stringent requirements to the highest potential exposures. Six key construction activities that are associated with asbestos are listed; demol ition/salvage; removal/encapsulation; construction/al teration/repair/maintenance/renovating; installation; spill/emergency cleanup, and transportation/disposal/containment on site. Startup Dates For the construction standard, (effective July 21 , 1986) all requirements must be complied no later than January 16, 1987. Comnunication Among Employees This requirement provides for the safety and health of other workers on mul ti -employer work sites. Construction employees directly involved in asbestos related activities must inform other employers working nearby of the existence of asbestos, hazard levels, regulated areas, and rules. Exposure Monitoring The new asbestos standards cover specific provisions for monitoring, including methods, frequency, initial monitoring, and employee notification, because of the differences in work sites, the general industry and the construction standards differ in some monitoring practices (i.e. frequency). However required monitoring methods and equipment for sampling are identical. The construction standard calls for daily monitoring of employees unless all employees are equipped with positive pressure supplied air respirators. The standard also allows for discontinuation of monitoring if employee exposures can be statistically shown to be below the action level (0.1 f/cc). In addition, the standard does require initial monitoring to determine the effectiveness of engineering controls. UCC 003212 -3Respiratory Protection The standard stipulates rules for respirator selection, program of proper use, and facepiece fit. The standard stipulates that the employer must provide respirators appropriate for an employee exposure. To help assure that respirators provide employee with the necessary protection, the standard requires employers to periodically perform either qualitative (QLFT) or quantitative (QNFT) fit test on all users of half mask negative pressure respirators. If negative pressures are used, high efficiency filters are mandatory. Protective Clothing and Equipment The new standard stipulates that protective clothing is to be supplied to all employees exposed above the PEL of 0.2 flee {a regulated area). An additional stipulation in the construction standard is that a "competent person" at the asbestos removal demolition site must periodically examine clothing {worn by employees within negative pressure enclosures) for rips and tears, and mend/replace that clothing. A competent person is defined as an authority on site who identifies existing asbestos hazards and has authority to reduce/eliminate them, is trained formally in all aspects of abatement and removal procedures, supervises employee monitoring, personal protection, and understands and carries out provisions of the standard.
