CHAMPLIN REFINING COMPANY: SAFETY PHILOSOPHY
The following items highlight the safety philosophy of Champlin Refining Company. These guidelines will show all the employees how Champlin intends to conduct its business. Safety is the No. 1 Priority and requires everyone's individual commitment.
1. Safety is a job requirement. Every employee is responsible for his/her work activities and is expected to follow established work procedures and exercise good safety judgement in performing his/her work.
2. Safety is as much a part of organization's responsibilities as production, costs, labor relations, or any other concern. We must make sure that each supervisor is regarded as the source of safety information for the people reporting to them.
3. Management has significant responsibility for preventing personal injuries. The manner in which employees carry out their safety responsibilities should be evaluated when reviewing their performance. The line organization is responsible for every work activity; therefore, each supervisor must accept his/her share of the responsibility for employee safety.
4. Injuries can be prevented by careful work activities and we must work to prevent all injuries. This is a realistic goal-not just a theoretical objective.
5. It is good business to prevent personal injuries on the job and off the job.
6. All personnel are responsible for conducting periodic safety inspections of their facilities. This prevents small problems from becoming bigger.
7. It is essential that all employees be trained to work safely and to understand that working safely is to the advantage of all employees.
8. Safety training for both new and experienced employees is a continuous function. Safety training must stress the reasons behind operating rules and procedures, since employees will reject seemingly arbitrary statements.
9. Management has established a Health and Safety Committee that meets every month to discuss safety related issues. This committee is made up of hourly, supervisory and safety personnel. This is a mechanism for employees to communicate safety concerns.
10. A Management Safety Committee consisting of the Refinery Manager and General Superintendents meets quarterly to review safety programs, safety procedures, and employee inputs from the Health and Safety Committee. It provides feedback to employees on safety issues and establishes new policies to help respond to the changing environments in our industry.

SAFETY ORGANIZATION FUNCTIONAL PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 35
I. PURPOSE
A safety movement within a refinery requires an organization comprised of the management and supervisory level. It is here where the decisions are made regarding the extensiveness of the safety activities and where safety policy is established.
U. SCOPE
The safety policy and compliance with effective safety activities must permeate the particular operation, department or manufacturing process. It includes each individual comprising a specific plant or refinery.
XL. SAFETY ACCOUNTABILITY
The Champlin Corpus Christi Refinery requires that the safety of its personnel be each manager's and supervisor's responsibility. It is imperative that safety be acted upon and maintained at the same level as the other components of a manager's and supervisor's position; such as, quality, production, service and cost. Safe work conditions are to be provided and each first line supervisor will require that safe procedures are followed. Accident prevention measures will be successful to the degree each member of the refinery organization accepts safety as an indi vidual concept.
IV. PRINCIPLES
The following principles have been developed to guide the Corpus Christi Refinery in a safety approach designed to control accidents and prevent injuries:
1. Safety is to be continuously stimulated through total staff and line support. 1.1 Tb furnish the initiative and incentives for progress, the department
managers will: - Maintain a consistent comprehensive safety program in their operations. - Tate the necessary action to control accidents by correcting unsafe
conditions and requiring safe practices. - Employ the use of personal protective equipment in preventing injuries. - Discuss with line supervisory personnel each week the plan for accident ^ reduction activities. - Maintain plantkeeping standards that promote safe work performance.
L-000217 -1-
SAFETY ORGANIZATION FUNCTIONAL PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 35
2. Provide consistent safety direction regularly.
2.1 The manager of a department, through line supervision with the guidance of the refinery safety department will administer adequate safety activities at all times:
- Inform and instruct those in each job assignment on safe work practices and accident control matters.
- Develop safe methods with workers, applying safe procedures and as these are formulated or improved, they shall be put down in written form to reflect the existing practices.
- Nfeintaln safe working conditions. The department; its property, machinery and equipment is to be safeguarded considering the safety and health of workers.
- The MANAGER of a department is held personally and directly accountable \ for the correction of unsafe conditions and any plantkeeping discrepan
cies existing in the department. This shall include whatever follow-up may be required. Ibis paramount safety responsibility cannot be delegated. - Investigate, report, and analyze all work inflicted injuries, no-injury accidents as well as the conditions and factors which brought them about. - Enforce the procedures for reporting all work injuries, however slight, iumediately by the injured employee. - Implement the most effective measures to prevent re-occurrence of any occupational case even those first aid case incidents. - Measure and evaluate injury experience and circulate pertinent data widely as a means of making safety guidance and education more meaningful.
3. Train all workers in safety techniques.
3.1 Line supervisors will give safety training to workers concerning their job, work assignment or task to be accomplished. A supervisor has the opportunity, the authority and therefore is accountable for full instructions to clarify the safe efficient conduct of the work assigned.:
- Safety instructions must be given, not only to new employees and to those transferred to unfamiliar exposures, but to all members of a group since safety measures, methods and practices continuously improve to meet new techniques and changing conditions.
- Each supervisor's leadership action must set an exanple to his people in the area of safety conduct and the use of personal protective equipment
\ in particular. - A supervisor must take iimediate action to correct unsafe practices, personal protective equipment violations and rectify improper house keeping. L-000218

SAFETY ORGANIZATION FUNCTIONAL PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 35
Supervisors will require the use of personal protective equipment and clothing prescribed. Accomplishing a state of recordable injury free performance within the refinery is also a function of operations which requires spontaneous cooperation from depart ment managers and line supervisors to ensure proper enforcement of safety activi ties, accident control measures and injury prevention requirements. Necessary action must be taken at management level to see that unsafe practices, unsafe conditions and inadequate housekeeping receives the department manager's consideration for a compatible solution. Ihe Safety Department cannot fulfull the total functions for the various and essential safety requirements without the full cooperation of all refinery personnel. Safety personnel serve in a liaison capacity in directing the safety approach by providing technical instructions and guidance. Department managers and supervisors must be held accountable for the safety of those in their res pective areas. This accountability is in direct proportion to the number of people they supervise.

SAFETY PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 41
I. THE BASIC SAFETY PLAN
In order to reach the goal of safe production, manpower, machinery and material must be dealt with effectively. This is the area in which occupational injuries are inflicted.
Industrial accidents are preventable since it is possible to control the causal
factors. An unplanned event was permitted to develop when an accident results from a method of operating. The accident is the acute symptom that something has gone wrong. Such symptoms have a basic cause which is either the unsafe practice, the unsafe condition or a combination of the two. Loss control studies made by safety practitioners have established that some 95f of all accidents are caused by unsafe practices. Only a very small per cent results from unsafe con ditions. However, the conditions aspect can become more prominent should inadequate attention be given to the control of physical hazards which are created and permitted to exist. One of these two factors is always basic vhile the remainder may or may not be contributing. Emphasis must be placed on safety violation before the accident is a fact and appropriate recognition should be given for safe practices.
II. POSITIVE ACCIDENT CONTROL METHODS
Supervision has many methods available for use in the constant movement to establish and maintain safe operations. Of these, there are four that are funda mental. In instances, these apply more to line supervisors and in others equally to all management levels.
1. Fhct Finding: The supervisor must know as much as possible about his equip- , ment, its use, the inherent hazards of his operation, the safe method in which the Job may be accomplished and consider the application of these under circumstances of practical human use.
2. Conimnlcations; Accident prevention will not succeed because a supervisor knows what respective safety measures, mechanical safeguards or personal pro tective equipment are essential. Proper safety instruction must be given with the Job assignment. In addition, it is not what the worker is told that counts because what is understood is what will be done.
3. Discipline: Safety in the final analysis must be a requirement of every task
undertaken. To attain individual safe performance to a state of practiced
accident control, all phases leading to discipline must be exercised -
leadership, training, compliance and progressive corrective action. Pro
gressive discipline is applicable among those who do not conform during the
three basic phases.

SAFETY PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 41
4. Action; Accidents will only be controlled when the entire organization acts for safety uniformly. There is no such state as neutrality - action for safety is either positive or negative. Safety must be developed through the acceptance and execution of safety responsibilities as they pertain to each supervisory level.
III. SAFETY RESPONSIBILITY
The Refinery ffenager is directly responsible for the safety of all personnel at the refinery operation's location. It is required that a refinery be operated in accordance with corporate policies of accident prevention. Enforcement must be consistent with the basic safety plan in compliance with Federal Safety and Health Regulations.
The Operations Ifenager is accountable for fostering those activities essential to an effective operating safety program. He must require that safety is maintained
in the proper perspective with the other components of the production requirements.
The Safety Department is responsible for the staff functions of directing the proper implementation of the refinery's safety approach, regulations, activities and standards. Steps must be taken to ensure that unsafe practices and unsafe condi tions receive attention by the department involved for correction. Safety engineers cannot successfully assume the total responsibility for the various and essential safety requirements and are in no position to go so far as to actually enforce safety in the jobs of workers. To do so detracts from the supervisor's authority, creates multiple supervision and weakens acceptance of safety by the workers. Line supervision's influence in requiring adherence to safety procedures and regulations on a daily basis is the most positive factor in attaining and maintaining safe production.
Department Manager The department manager is accountable for taking that action necessary to correct conditions determined to be detrimental to safety, safeguarding
hazards and establishing safety in his department. A manager is to direct the safety approach in his department requiring those who supervise to comply with and enforce all safety regulations. Praipt appropriate progressive corrective measures shall be imposed by the department manager upon recomnendation from the individual's
supervisor, subject to review by the Personnel Jfenager concerning safety infrac tions that warrant the final steps of the formal discipline procedures.
The Supervisor's influence must be such that safety is a part of every job. He is
\ directly and personally responsible to his department manager for the safety of
those he supervises. He must be fully conversant with the safety regulations and
set the example for all his people. He must make it clear to employees the require
ment that they work safely at all times and that safety violations may be the cause
for disciplinary action ranging from a censure to separation.

10. To contact each employee on his shift concerning safety no less than 1 time each week.
11. To observe the first aid case trend for the purpose of coaching those with repetitive visits to the refinery's medical facilities in the interest of preventing injuries.
12. To accept No unsafe practices and investigate no-injury incidents, report ing each with corrective measures taken.
Bnployee Employees are required to work safely. Each must develop the safe way to
do the Job and comply with the refinery's safety rules as well as with the depart
ment's safety measures. Qnployees are to assist fellow workers and contribute to
the safety of an operation. Refinery personnel are subject to disciplinary
measures for the violation of safe operating principles. Performance in the area
of individual safety accountability is among the factors to be considered in an
employee's progress evaluation.

AUTHORIZATION OF PORK LIFT TRUCK OPERATORS PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 50
PURPOSE
The chief objective of fork lift tiuck training is to develop the knowledge and skill of an operator essential for properly working this equipment without damage to property or inflicting accidents. This may be accomplished through a planned experience program coupled with formal instruction periods. Such a training course should be designed to embody operating techniques which include safety, maneuvering, driving, material handling, preventative maintenance and rules of the road.
SCOPE OF MOBILE EQUIPMENT OPERATOR QUALIFYING CRITERIA
The procedure for properly qualifying which permits the authorization of an employee to operate fork lift truck equipment consists of a number of considerations:
I. . Prospective employees for mobile equipment operator assignments should satisfactorily pass a comprehensive eye examination and the results of a hearing evaluation test should be recorded.
A. Eye test shall enccmpass visual acuity, depth perception, peripheral vision and color perception. Binocular vision is mandatory. Alterna ting vision must be corrected with side shield prescription safety glasses considering costs to an employee as stipulated in a plant's safety glasses program.
B. Hearing ability (threshold level) should be sensitive enough whereby the normal voice does not have to be raised to a shout at a distance of four (^) feet for the Individual to respond under general conditions. Deafness of one ear is a disqualifying factor.
C. New placements for fork lift equipment operators are to be scheduled for visual and hearing tests by the personnel supervisor.
D. The respective supervisor will arrange for the eye and hearing examina tions for active employees who are candidates for an authorized operator.
II. Fork lift equipment operators must be trained in their safety accountability, their job duties, the function of the equipment and must accept this responsibility in their daily performance applying all safety measures. The driver-operator is held directly and personally accountable for safety as it relates to safe practices in operating a fork lift.
A. ffenagers of the respective departments will request fork life equipment training for prospective operators by the warehouse supervisor who has been designated to conduct this training.
-1- L-000251
AUTHORIZATION OP PORK LEFT TRUCK OPERATORS PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE NO. 50
B. The employee's supervisor will certify that the trainee has been qualified and is aware of his safety accountability to the extent it is practiced as normal routine by forwarding the completed operator Evaluation Sheet after implementation to the Safety Office.
C. Ihe warehouse supervisor will forward the Fbrk Lift Truck Certification to the Safety Office together with the trainees quiz for recording and the file.
D. The Safety Office will then issue a certification card which signifies that the training is complete and authorization is condoned. A license as such is not essential to comply with OSHA.
III.
The fork lift equipment operators qualify for the authorization to operate by:
1. ffeking a satisfactory visual performance and hearing threshold score.
2. Completing the phases of the driver-operator instruction-demonstration course.
3. Inking a passing grade on the written test for fork lift truck operators and receiving approval of performance as required by the operator evaluation sheet.
4. Ffeintaining a valid State drivers license in the event public roads become involved.
5. Prior training in other employment may be accepted if the prospective operator provides such evidence in the form of a training certificate by submitting a copy for the record. However, the VISION and HEARING test, as well as the written EXAM must be satisfactorily passed and are mandatory.
IV. Authority to operate may be revoked for failure to comply with established safety regulations during the final stage of the progressive discipline procedure. Inability to practice safety on the part of the operator is cause for disqualification. Operators are charged with safe performance in
operating fork lift equipment to include the safety of pedestrians or employees in the area of any particular operation. Accidents involving fork lift trucks will be thoroughly investigated for personnel failure in safety compliance.

H.F. ACID SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS (Cont'd.) 4. H.F. Acid is a hazardous chemical with properties peculiar to itself which call
for specific handling and treatment. With improper handling, it can be extremely dangerous. Accordingly, it is essential that these safety considerations be thoroughly understood and strictly followed. Under these conditions, but only under these conditions, the use of H.F. Acid will be no more hazardous than that of common acids. Refer to the HF Acid MSDS for specific handling instructions. 5. Water reacts rapidly with HF, generating heat and creating elevated pressures. Equipment which has contained it and/or hydrocarbon acid mixtures must be emptied, purged, vented and drained before neutralizing with soda ash solution and/or water washing. 6. It is the responsibility of the Area Supervisor and the Unit Operator to ensure that all people entering the H.F. Alky area understand this procedure. 7. This procedure will be reviewed by the unit personnel periodically under the direction of the Shift Supervisor and the Unit Operator.

BENZENE SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURE
I. PURPOSE To establish procedures for the safe handling of benzene and to safeguard the health of personnel working in areas of the refinery where potential exposures exist.
II. SCOPE This procedure applies to all Champlin employees and contractors performing work within the Corpus Christi Refinery and associated facilities.
III. PROCEDURE A. Description: 1. Benzene (C5H5) is a colorless, volatile and flammable liquid with an
s
aromatic odor. It freezes at 43F and boils at 176F. Its flammable limits in air are 1.3 to 7.1 percent (voiume) and the autoignition temperature is 1044F. Benzene vapors are about 2.8 times heavier than air and will tend to settle in low areas. 2. Inhalation of benzene vapor may result in acute or chronic poisoning depending upon the concentration of the vapor and the length of exposure. The Threshold Limit Value (TLV) is 1 ppm and the Short Term Exposure Limit (STEL) is 5 ppm. 3. Skin contact with liquid benzene should be avoided, as it dissolves the natural oils of the skin, leaving it dry and possibly irritated.

BENZENE SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURE
III. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. Exposure Control: 2. Pump seal and line leakage shall be kept to a minimum. When preparing equipment for maintenance, benzene should be drained to a closed aromatic sewer with minimal spillage to the slab or ground. When pipelines containing benzene are disconnected, spill containment of the product is mandatory. Material must be returned to the aromatic sewer. 3. During sampling and gauging operations, employees should try to stand at tank hatches or sample points so that the wind is from their side in order to reduce exposure. In addition, full face dual cartridge air-purifying respirators must be wom during these operations. 4. Obtaining samples which contain benzene requires the use of chemical resistant gloves. 5. Where skin contact with liquid benzene is likely, chemical resistant clothing such as gloves, pants, jacket, and/or boots will be wom to eliminate exposure. 6. To reduce personal exposure, clothing which becomes contaminated with benzene should be removed and placed in a closed container. Cords used to hold benzene tank sample containers should be placed in a closed container or in the open portion of the sampler's truck in order to reduce the likelihood of employee exposure. D. Respiratory Protection: 1. Personnel who are required to wear negative pressure air-purifying respirators will receive a qualitative fit test utilizing irritant smoke when subject to working with benzene. The protocol for this procedure will be in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.1028 Appendix E.

SULFUR LOADING PROCEDURE FOR RAILROAD TANK CABS
PROCEDURE NO. 55
PURPOSE
Employees who load molten sulfur must be aware of the characteristics of the material as it relates to the conveying and transporting facilities. There are safety measures that must prevail to assure that the system and the methods are canpatible.
SCOPE
Tto maintain safe practices in loading molten sulfur, definite procedures nust be followed in proper sequence.
PROCEEURES
1. The temperature of molten sulfur must be in the 270F to 310F range to flow freely. At either lower or higher temperatures its viscosity is such that it becomes too dense to pump.
2. The operator of the sulfur plant is to be notified prior to starting the loading of cars.
3. The blue flag must be posted at the gate entrance to show that loading will be in progress.
fJ. A railroad tank car must be inspected by the terminal or operations employee to ensure it is in a condition for loading sulfur. The bottom valve must be closed, all open lines on the car must be plugged or blinded and both the belly cap and dome cap must be free including the bolts for securing them. The interior of a car is to be inspected from the dome opening for water and debris. Cars containing foreign material are not to be loaded. Water and molten sulfur in the 270 to 310 degree Fahrenheit range creates steam, therefore, the water must be drained from the car before loading.
5. Inquire about the temperature of the sulfur and make sure that there is enough in the pit to load the cars on the track. The Area 4, Block 50 sulfur recovery facility's pit dimensions are such that 1 foot of molten sulfur will load one 12,000 gallon tank car and the pit must NOT be pumped below 1 foot 6 inches. The sulfur recovery ccnplex in Area 5 can load one 12,000 gallon tank car per 21 inches in the pit and a minimum of 1 foot of sulfur must be retained at all times. These levels will ensure that the dip legs in the pit remain sealed.

SULFUR LOADING PROCEDURE FOR RAILROAD TANK CARS
PROCEDURE NO. 55
6. Make sure that the sulfur pump discharge line to sulfur storage tank nea" the dock and the railroad tank car rack line valves are both closed. The Stop-Start switch for the transfer pump must be locked in the stop position at both the tank car rack and at the pump location. This is necessary to
- prevent molten sulfur fran being pimped before loading is ready.
7. The tank car must have been properly spotted under the loading arm at this time. Tank car wheels must be chocked and the ground cable connected. Extend sulfur loading arm down spout at least 8 inches into the car's top hatch and secure it fran four sides to prevent surging.
8. Tank car is now ready to start loading. The sulfur unit operator must set the Stop-Start switch at the pump in the neutral position. Tank car rack line valve at the discharge of transfer pump must be opened. Use the StopStart switch at the tank car rack during loading. Load the tank car to
) approximately 10" outage. Extreme care must be exercised to make sure punping is stopped when the hose down spout is 1 to 2 inches above the"
t sulfur in the car. This level prevents overloading of the car and the air ' space permits the sulfur in the line to drain back to the pit.
9. After the line has been drained, the discharge valve at the sulfur pit pump is to be closed and the Stop-Start switch locked in the Stop position. This is necessary to prevent sulfur from being punped when the riser hose is being removed in preparation for closing the tank car.
10. After the car has been sealed, complete the Tank Car feck Loading Report in full. Molten sulfur placards must be placed in placard holders at both ends and on each side of the tank car.
11. Remove the chocks and disconnect the ground cable from the tank car loaded with sulfur. Both loaded and empty tank cars to be moved or spotted shall be relocated using suitable equipment. A tractor such as a trackmobile or other such powered equipment shall be attached to the R.R. cars by means of a draw bar. Cables are prohibited and equipment boons must not be used. Manually operated jack type rail car movers are also approved.
12. The Blue Flag is to be removed when the tank cars are ready for shipment by rail. This signals the switch engine crew that the cars can be safely pulled away.
13. The assignment to load sulfur requires that there be an experienced atten dant present at all times at the rail facility during the loading operation.

WORK PERMIT PROCEDURE
IV. DEFINITIONS (Cont'd) V. Work Permit - Posting - There are three copies of both Routine and Hazardous work permits. The first (original) copy must be posted in a plastic envelope by the craftsman at the job site. The second copy will be posted by the Area Operator on the status board in the appropriate Control Room or comfort station. The third copy will be retained in the permit book. Empty permit books will be returned to the Safety Department. W. Work Permit - A work permit is a formal safety checklist that must be completed before maintenance work can begin in the operating areas of the refinery. A separate work permit issued by Maintenance, Safety or Shift Supervisors may be required for work outside the operating areas. Different crafts each need separate work permits to perform their part of an approved work plan. One permit may cover more than one task per craft if it involves the same risk source. A Work Permit will also be issued to other contractors such as hydroblasters, leak repair services, and vacuum trucks before they perform any work in operating areas. An example of work that does not require a Work Permit is bulk chemical deliveries such as caustic, acid and process chemicals which are covered by Procedure 704.2 "Unloading Procedure for Bulk Commodity Chemicals". X. Work Plan - The description of work to be performed by Champlin employees and contractors. The work plan will be developed by the Champlin planning department through work requests submitted by all areas of the refinery. Y. Work Scope Changes - It is the responsibility of the craftsman to notify Operations if the work scope changes during the course of a job. Work permits (both hazardous and routine) are issued for specific work activities. If additional work not described on the permit becomes necessary, then a new permit must be issued.

WORK PERMIT PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE A. When the craftsman receives an approved work plan, he reports to the Area
Operator for a work permit. The proper safety precautions must be defined by the operator and verified by the maintenance craftsman or supervisor. Work cannot start until the job site has been thoroughly checked, the permit completed, signed and issued by the appropriate personnel as designated in Table I, II or III. B. Work permits for the Operating/Terminal/Lab areas are always initiated by personnel in those areas. Jobs in non-operating areas such as the maintenance shop, office buildings, etc. may require a separate permit to be issued by Maintenance or Safety. The Maintenance Supervisor must approve work without a permit in non-operating areas. In the Terminal department, routine work permits issued in outlying areas such as the 90/91, BTX Gauger areas, and all dock facilities can be issued and approved by the technician in charge of that facility through verbal permission from the Terminal Operator as outlined in Table III. C. The Area Operator must determine which permit must be filled out for each work activity. Some minor preparatory work such as covering drains or delivering tools can be done at the discretion of the Area Operator. No written permit will be needed for the preparatory work. The permit should be filled out according to the following procedure: 1. Record the work plan number on the work permit in the space provided.
This will help provide reference if needed at a later time. 2. Fill out the "issued to" spaces. Write the specific name of CRC
craftsman, or contract craftsman and company name.

WORK PERMIT PROCEDURE
V. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. 3. Note the date and time of expiration. Permits will be set to expire at the end of the maintenance shift. If a particular maintenance crew continues to work longer than originally quoted, the permit may then be extended by the Area Operator by changing expiration time and initialling. 4. Fill out equipment information, noting unit, equipment number, and name. Also, log the date the permit is being issued. 5. Fill out the 'job description/material involved' portion, in as much detail as possible after discussing the scope of the work with the Maintenance personnel. Be sure to specify the chemical which could be involved and discuss hazards - refer to MSDS if necessary. On multi-activity jobs, the craftsman will have to verbally indicate which part of the sequence (activity) he wants to do in order for the Area Operator to write it on the permit. Be specific. Define the limits of the work to be done so that the craftsman doesn't work on equipment which is not prepared. Work activity is limited to what is specifically defined ;n the permit. A separate work permit is normally required for each craft, but there will be instances where more than one craftsman will be able to work from the same permit. 6. A gas test will be performed by the operator if specified by the permit. Supervisors need not perform an independent gas test.

WORK PERMIT PROCEDURE
V. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. 7. The next section of the permit itemizes the precautions which must be taken as a condition of the permit. Ail precautions noted by the issuer must be observed. If a bold heading is not checked, it is to be marked not applicable (N/A). The Shift Supervisor or Maintenance Supervisor/Leaderman should be consulted prior to the preparation of the Work Permit if conditions are not straightforward. NOTE: Other precautions may be added under the comments section of the work permit. The Area Operator and Supervisor issuing the permit must first check the specific Champlin safety procedures corresponding to the type of work being performed. There may be several procedures applicable to a given permit. 8. When the permit is complete, the Area Operator will sign the "prepared by" space. By signing, the Area Operator insures that the following have been accomplished: a. The Area Operator has physically inspected the jobsite with the craftsman, checked equipment conditions, tagged and/or locked valves, and has completed all gas tests. Operations personnel must insure that all permit requirements are met prior to signing the permit. b. The Maintenance/Construction personnel have confirmed to the Area Operator the scope and limits of the work to be done. The Area Operator will show the Maintenance/Construction personnel how the equipment is isolated, the location of locks and tags, special precautions taken, and safety equipment required. c. Once all special precautions and conditions are met and all safety equipment required is on site, then the person required by Table I. II, or III must be called to check and approve the permit.

WORK PERMIT PROCEDURE
V. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. 9. When the work activity is complete, or the permit expires, whichever comes first, the craftsman .must return the original copy of the (Hazardous or Routine permit) permit to the Area Operator. a. The Area operator must inspect the job for completion before signing off, (Refer to Item IV. U. Turnover Responsibility for guidelines.) b. Both the Area operator and the craftsman will then sign the permit to verify that it is no longer active. c. For completed work activities the status board copy will be kept on the completed work status board. d. For incompleted work activities the status board copy will be kept on the incomplete work status board. 10. Only "active" permits should be on the status board. Note: It is the Area Operator's responsibility to keep the permit status board up-to-date. If a permit is in effect at the time of the Operations/Terminal/Lab shift change, the oncoming Area Operator must review the permit status board and initial these copies of the permit (board copies). For tasks involving Hazardous Work, the Area Operator will inspect the job sites, and verify compliance with existing permits without interrupting work. This should be done immediately after shift change. 11. When the Work Plan is signed off, the Area Operator shall assure that any outstanding work permits associated with the Work Plan are completed and removed from the Status Board.

ROUTINE WORK PERMIT SPECIFICS
APPENDIX A
Once the above information is completed then the "work to be performed" is checked on the permit. If none of the work categories apply, indicate the type of work in the "Job Description" or "Comments" section. The method of Isolation of Equipment and/or Energy Source is then to be specified and the appropriate tags (i.e. "Caution" or "Do Not Operate") and/or locks must be affixed to the equipment. The operator and each craft working on the job must attach their tag and lock. Refer to Safety Procedures #705.4, #706.5 and 706.7 for details. The appropriate Respiratory Equipment and Protective Clothing necessary must be specified if a hazardous chemical is involved. Remember to instruct the craftsman as to the hazards of the material and make reference to the MSDS where applicable. If work involving LPG Area Entry is to be performed then refer to Procedure #706. i 1 for details concerning special precautions to be taken to prevent contact with equipment. If the task involves Opening of Process Equipment/Valve Removal then the energy source must be isolated and the equipment drained and purged. Excavations less than five feet will require a Routine work permit whereas an excavation greater than that depth in most cases will require a Hazardous work permit. Attention should be directed to the depth of the excavation, presence of underground lines, shoring/sioping, and barricading of the area for personnel protection. Permits for Vehicle Entry/Vacuum Truck can be issued on either a Routine or Hazardous work permit. Vacuum truck work will require a Routine work permit when the material is picked up and another permit when it is received at its destination within the refinery. A separate permit for disposing of the material will not be necessary when it is delivered within the same operating area or it is delivered to an offsite disposal facility. It is extremely important to convey to the vacuum truck driver the hazards of the material that is being handled. For X-Ray of Equipment it is required that radiographers have posted barricades around the exposure area. In addition, they must post signs stating "Caution Radiation Area" on or near the barricades. The radiographer will in both cases determine where barricades and signs are placed. Any routine work which requires _> 15 Ton Crane Operation will need to be addressed on the permit. Particular attention must be directed to placement of outrigger pads, area of boom travel, and overhead electric or process lines. In addition, cranes which are either operating with a load or traveling where the vision is obstructed must have a lookout person accompany the crane to prevent contact with equipment. Finally, the lead craftsman, contract foreman or non-bulk chemical truck driver must always sign the permit. By signing the permit, the maintenance personnel acknowledge that they approve of how the equipment is prepared and isolated and
agree to comply with ail permit conditions. Additionally, he/she must insure that all techniques being used to perform the work demonstrate conservative safe practice and good judgment.
L-000314
HAZARDOUS WORK PERMIT SPECIFICS
APPENDIX B
1. The method of Isolation of Equipment and/or Energy Source should be specified and the appropriate tags (i.e. "Caution" or "Do Not Operate") and/or locks must be affixed to the equipment. The operator and each craft working on the job must attach their tag and lock. Refer to Safety Procedures #705.4, #706.5 and 706.7 for details. Blinds must be installed and marked according to the Blind List and identified with streamers.
2. If Hot Work/Vehicle Entry is to be performed then the appropriate means of draining, purging, and isolation of equipment must be accomplished. Other items which are applicable to the hot work being performed should be checked and verified by both the operations and maintenance representatives. Should entry of a vehicle into the operating area be necessary to perform the task described on the Hazardous work permit then all sewers should be covered and a gas test completed in and around the work area. Refer to Safety Procedure #705.3.
3. Tasks involving Hot Tap/Stopple must be accompanied by the "Authorization For Hot Tap/Stopple" form. The completed form must be presented to the operator prior to the issuance of the permit. The form will specify line thickness, service, operating conditions, flow or liquid head established, etc. all of which will-be necessary prior to starting work. Details concerning these requirements can be found in Safety Procedure #705.5. Following the verification of this information the provisions established in the Hot Work/Vehicle Entry section of the Hazardous work permit must be completed.
4. Work involving Confined Space Entry will require completion of the section entitled "Isolation of Equipment and/or Energy Source". The confined space entry requirements are then checked and must be in place before the permit is issued. When hot work is to be performed within the confined space it will be necessary to thoroughly examine the vessel to eliminate or otherwise separate residual oil or other combustible materials from the area of hot work. This could involve removal of the material or utilizing wet fire blankets to separate combustib<es from potential ignition sources.
5. Work on In-Service Pressure Relief Valves or the installation of battery limit flare line blinds will require close coordination with the affected operating area(s) to verify unit stability prior to starting work. This work will require personnel flash suits and air line respiratory equipment to reduce the potential for personal injury should an upset occur. Personnel removing relief valves which are isolated by a blind such as a battery limit flare line blind need only wear an air line respirator and are not required to wear a flash suit. Where the relief valve is isolated with a block valve it will be necessary to wear both the flash suit and air line respirator.
6. Any hazardous work which requires _> 15 Ton Crane Operation will need to be addressed on the permit. Particular attention must be directed to placement of outrigger pads, area of boom travel, overhead electric or process lines, and other equipment considerations. In addition, cranes which are either operating with a load or travelling where the vision is obstructed must have a lookout person accompany the crane to prevent contact with equipment.

APPENDIX B
7. Work Involving Hazardous Chemicals listed in the procedure will require special protective clothing considerations. Clothing should be selected based on the hazards of the material involved and can be referenced in the MSDS or "Chemical Safety Handbook". In addition, it will be necessary to properly depressure, de-inventory, and lock and tag the equipment prior to commencing work.
8. Tasks involving Critical Instrument Work as defined by the items listed on the permit must be properly coordinated to prevent malfunction or unit shutdown. The applicable items listed must be checked and comments noted and reviewed with operations and maintenance supervision.
9. Tasks involving High Voltage Electrical Work must also be coordinated with operations in order to insure proper communications take place, that tags and locks are in place, and what special equipment is necessary to perform the job safely.
10. Work Near Power Lines means any task which involves personnel or equipment coming within 10 feet of an overhead power transmission line. Examples could include scaffold construction, use of a crane to hoist personnel or equipment, use of a manlift, or any other task which can endanger personnel from contact with power lines. Many of the tasks performed may, in fact, be routine in nature; however become extremely hazardous when performed in close proximity to overhead lines. A spotter on the ground is required for these tasks. Before work begins,
' call the Electrical Department to see if the section of power line could be de-energized while the work is done.
11. The Champlin Operations/Terminal Supervisor or Superintendent noted on Table I must then go to the job site for Hazardous Permits. When he/she arrives at the site, the Supervisor must review the work plan and work permit. He must then require the Area Operator to give him an in-depth review, showing him or telling him about equipment conditions (valves, blinds, bleeders, as applicable). Then he will approve the permit by signing in the "Operations/Terminal Approved" space. The Supervisor will not normally perform gas tests. His main purpose is to double-check equipment preparation and safety conditions. The Safety Department will always make an independent review and co-approve initial confined space entry permits. The Safety Department will be available for consultation on specific jobs.
12. The lead craftsman, appropriate Maintenance/Construction Supervisor or Leaderman (per
Table I) must then sign the work permit. The craftsman will already be at the job site. The
Maintenance/Construction Leaderman or Maintenance/Construction Supervisor must also go to
the site to sign Hazardous permits. By signing the permit, the Maintenance/Construction
personnel acknowledge that they approve of how the equipment is prepared and isolated and
agree to comply with all permit conditions.
It is preferable that the
Maintenance/Construction/Supervisor/Leaderman report to the site at the same time as the
Operations/Terminal Supervisor. On larger jobs, this practice will help to ensure good
communications between supervisors.

CONFINED SPACE (VESSEL) ENTRY PROCEDURE
I. PURPOSE This procedure establishes guidelines which allow entry and performance of effective work in confined spaces.
II. SCOPE This procedure applies to all employees and contractors who perform work within the Corpus Christi Refinery and/or associated facilities.
III. DEFINITIONS A. Confined Space (Vessel) - Any enclosed space which has limited access or restricted entry or exit such as vessels, tanks, drums, pipelines, boilers, tank cars, reactors, receivers, furnaces, etc. Also included are pits, sewers, and cooling towers where employee egress is restricted. B. Oxygen Deficiency - Any atmosphere that has an oxygen concentration of less than 19.5%. C. Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) - This is a maximum gas concentration from which one could escape within 30 minutes without any symptoms that would impair their escape or cause irreversible health effects. D. Confined Space Entry - An entry which results from the head or body penetrating the opening of the confined space.
IV. PROCEDURE A. Operations will initiate a "Hazardous Work Permit" for any personnel who are required to perform work in a confined space.

CONFINED SPACE (VESSEL) ENTRY PROCEDURE
IV. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) B. Confined Space (Vessel) Preparations 1. It will be necessary to isolate, drain, and purge process equipment before entry. In most cases it 'will be necessary to steam out the vessel in order to remove all residual hydrocarbon. It will then be necessary to allow the vessel to cool while ventilating the confined space. At the time that the vessel is opened for ventilation a sign containing the following information will be placed on the manway until a confined space entry permit is issued.
danger; TOXIC GASES DO NOT BREATHE
2. ALL lines terminating at the vessel or space shall be blinded at the first flange closest to the vessel. Where this is not practical, blinding can be done at other locations with the approval of the Safety Department. In these cases it will be necessary to install a spacer on the vessel side of the blind in order for the line to free drain should it contain liquid. Double block valves with an intervening bleeder valve are not considered equivalent to a blind where personnel enter the vessel or confined space.
3. Furnace firebox tubes do not terminate at the furnace shell; therefore, for radiant or convection section entry it is not necessary to blind all the tubes where they enter or exit the furnace. If a leaking tube has been detected, then only the inlet and outlet of that tube pass needs to be blinded.

PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) B. 4. For entry into confined spaces such as vaults, API separators, sumps, pits.
sewers, etc. where blinding is not possible it will be necessary to take precautions to isolate these areas by other means such as the use of plumbers plugs, etc. When plumbers plugs are used it is necessary that special care be taken to relieve any upstream pressure build-up so that the plumbers plug cannot blow out. 5. Drain lines which penetrate sewers must be either plugged or have the flange/union spread apart and offset. 6. All power-driven equipment in the vessel shall be immobilized (i.e. agitators, mixers, heater draft fans, etc.). Electrical equipment shall be locked out in accordance with the "Lockout and Tagout Procedure", No. 705.4. The power supply to other fixed equipment inside the vessel driven by air, steam, or hydraulic fluid shall have control valves closed, chained, and locked or be blinded. 7. Vessels which employ the use of a radioactive device MUST HAVE the source shutter locked out and tagged by the Safety or Instrument Department prior to entry. The device will be placed back in service only after the vessel has been closed and secured. 8. Controls must be provided that will prevent contaminants from entering the confined space such as open-ended pipes, sewers, or other similar equipment. This can be accomplished by covering the vessel opening or sealing the source from which these materials can discharge. 9. All vessels and/or confined spaces entered will require exhaust ventilation prior to and during entry. It may be necessary to supply forced ventilation by the use of fans, blowers, etc. if natural ventilation is not sufficient. When forced ventilation is utilized the blower should be placed in such a way to pull clean air from the top of the vessel down.

PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) B. 10. The atmosphere inside the space to be entered shall be tested for
flammability, oxygen content, and other toxic materials. Acceptable test levels are:
a. Oxygen - Must be between 19.5% and 21.0%. b. Flammable gas content - Must be zero (0). c. H2S content - Must be zero (0). d. Carbon monoxide Maximum 50 ppm. e. Other toxic materials - No entry without respiratory protection
will be permitted unless test indicates exposure wilt be at or below the TLV. Lead in air analyses will be required for all storage tanks which have held leaded gasoline. f. Where inert gas entry is performed special procedures will apply. C. Permit Preparations 1. Confined space entry tasks will always require a "Hazardous Work Permit" to be issued by the operations personnel in the area where the work will be performed. The appropriate supervisory and operator approvals as indicated in the "Work Permit Procedure" Table I will be required prior to permit issuance. 2. Ail vessel preparations previously mentioned will be completed prior to the issuance of a confined space entry permit. In addition, each item listed on the "Hazardous Work Permit" pertaining to confined space entry must be checked during permit completion. It is required that these items be checked at the location where the work is to be performed.

CONFINED SPACE (VESSEL) ENTRY PROCEDURE
IV. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. 3. The INITIAL vessel entry permit on ALL confined spaces will be independently reviewed by the Safety Department and co*signed by one of its representatives. Entry permits which involve work within Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) atmospheres will be co-signed by the Safety Department at each maintenance shift change if work extends beyond the first shift. 4. Confined space entry permits are issued for the time period specified on the top of the permit and expire one hour after the time of issue if work has not commenced. Permits will normally cover the time period of the maintenance shift but will not exceed 12 hours. 5. Where the work extends beyond the operational shift change the new shift coming on will recheck the confined space and initial the permit without interrupting the work. 6. Permits must be posted at the entrance to the vessel/confined space to be entered in a location that is readily visible to personnel. D. Special Precautions 1. Only explosion proof low voltage (12 volts) lights, flashlights, and/or extension cords may be used for confined space entry. The use of ground fault interrupters (GF1) will permit the use of lighting with a higher voltage rating provided the lights are explosion proof. 2. The temperature inside the confined space shall not exceed 100F unless special precautions to prevent heat stress have been taken. 3. If the refinery emergency alarm sounds all permits are VOID and all personnel must exit entered vessels. All confined spaces in the area of the emergency must be rechecked before personnel are allowed to re-enter.

CONFINED SPACE (VESSEL) ENTRY PROCEDURE
IV. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) D. 4. If exhaust ventilation cannot be supplied and/or natural ventilation is not sufficient then breathing air equipment must be used in the enclosure. 5. The supervisor responsible for personnel entering the confined space will designate at least one person as a "safety watch" who will be positioned at the confined space/vessel entrance. On larger vessels it might be necessary to have more than one "safety watch" in order to adequately monitor the personnel inside. The "safety watch" responsibilities are: a) An accounting of all personnel working in the vessel. b) Visually observe and/or maintain a means or communication with personnel inside the vessel/space. c) The "safety watch" will be required to wear a red vest to so identify him/her as a manway attendant. d) Assure that conditions outside the vessel are not altered or tampered with such that conditions inside the vessel will be affected. e) Have all personnel leave from inside the vessel in case fire alarm sounds. f) The "safety watch" WILL NOT enter the vessel but instead summon assistance in the event of an emergency inside or outside the space. g) The safety watch must not leave the vessel at any time for any reason while personnel are inside the vessel. 6. In certain work situations, it may be necessary to enter vessels/confined spaces that contain an oxygen deficient atmosphere or is not completely purged of toxic materials. Personnel entry can be permitted provided that the appropriate precautionary measures are taken.

V. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) A. 7. The operations or maintenance personnel involved in each job may decide to install blinds, depending on the integrity of the block valves, the hazard of the process equipment and the time of exposure. It may also be necessary to blind the equipment in order to finish clearing it of process material. In this situation workers installing blinds may need to wear special protective clothing and be supplied with breathing air. 8. Operations must clear the equipment of any remaining process liquids or gases by purging with steam, nitrogen or water, whichever is appropriate. Level gauge glasses and instrument taps should also be purged. 9. Verily that all of the isolation procedures have been completed prior to issuing a work permit. 10. Verify the effectiveness of equipment isolation efforts by using the correct meter or device to test the air quality in and around the immediate work area. . 11. After a permit has been issued, no new hoses or tie-ins can be added to the isolated equipment unless a new work permit has been issued. 12. Operations' locks and tags will stay in place until alj work has been completed and all maintenance locks and lags have been removed. Operations will then remove their lock indicating that the equipment is ready for service. (NOTE: The Operations lock and tag is always the first on and the last removed.)

PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) A. 12. Remember - when blinding,
a. Keep personnel in the immediate area to an absolute minimum, b. Make sure those doing the blinding have a clear escape route, and c. If you encounter "surprise" releases, get away from the area, and get
operating personnel to specify a new procedure or protection to cope with the "surprise" release. 13. If the job will be completed by someone other than the craftsman who started the job: a. The first craftsmen will remove their identified locks and notify the operator that the work has not been completed. b. The new craftsmen will go to the unit operator and inform the operator that they are taking over the job and verify the location where their identified locks are to be installed. B. Confined Space Entry 1. Entry into confined spaces present special hazards (Refer to Procedure 705.2), therefore the following additional precautions are required: a. Equipment blinding is mandatory for work activities involving confined space entry. Isolation blinds are normally placed at the first flange from the vessel. Blinds should be installed with the proper gaskets on both sides. b. The Operations Department shall supply a "blind list" for the recording of all blinds.

PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) B. 1. c. Install all blinds with an obviously conspicuous plastic streamer
attached to the blind. During turnarounds, it will be- necessary to attach a numbered tag to the blind. The tag number must be recorded on the master blind list and the duplicate tag placed on the blind board. All blinds for a particular vessel are to be grouped together on the blind list in order to verify proper isolation. d. The Maintenance Craftsman and the Area Operator must initial the master blind list when blinds are installed. When all blinds on the list are installed, the Maintenance Leaderman or senior craftsman for each craft on the job and the Area Operator must sign at the bottom of the master blind list. By signing the blind list, both persons are confirming that blinding is complete per the list. e. When one blind is common to two different jobs, it must be on both blind lists. Each such "common" blind must be specially marked on both blind lists that it is also being used for another job. Obviously, common blinds cannot be removed until both jobs are complete. For blinds which serve two or more jobs, it may be helpful to install two or more streamers on the blind's tab to reduce the likelihood of its being pulled prematurely. f. If blinding is not feasible, a special procedure must be approved by Operations, Maintenance and Safety representatives. g. If a radioactive source is present on the equipment, contact the Instrument or Safety Department to lock out the source.

HOT TAP AND/OR STOPPLE PROCEDURE
I. PURPOSE To establish a procedure for planning and safely performing a Hot Tap and/or Stopple.
II. DEFINITIONS HOT TAP A method used to add piping connections to live pressurized equipment. This method includes the welding of a reinforced nozzle or weldolet to the equipment being tapped while the equipment is in service. STOPPLE A method which involves setting one or more temporary plugs in the piping by mechanical means through connections hot tapped onto the piping. These plugs are designed to retain pressure and temporarily stop flow.
III. SCOPE This procedure applies to all Champlin employees and contractors performing work within Champlin facilities. It should be used to tie into the equipment only when it is not feasible or not possible to remove the equipment from service. All hot taps/stopples must be approved by the appropriate Area Operations or Terminal Superintendent and the Maintenance Supervisor. In certain cases (defined herein) authorization is required from the Plant Manager. If vessels are to be hot tapped then the National Board Form R-l is required which is obtained from Operations Reliability.
IV. FEASIBILITY Prior to obtaining the required permit, the feasibility and HazOp of the proposed hot taps and stopples shall be reviewed by Engineering and Operations Reliability Department representatives. Consideration shall be given to the following:

HOT TAP AND/OR STOPPLE PROCEDURE
VI. PROCEDURE FOR STOPPLING (Cont'd.) F. After the hot tap is completed and the Hot Tap machine is removed, the Stoppling machine can be installed. The appropriate Operations Representative is to ascertain that, during installation of the plug, there is minimum flow in the line. G. With the plug in place, the isolated section of the pipe can be depressured and drained and the tightness of the plug verified. H. Work can now commence on the downstream side of the plug. This may involve cutting the line, welding on a flange and installing a new valve, or just replacing an existing valve. However, work shall proceed without any interruptions until the line is closed again and the stopple is ready for removal. I. In order to remove the stopple plug, the Maintenance Supervisor is to verify that all work is completed and the line is properly closed. The Operations Shift Supervisor is to verify that the pressure on both sides of the plug is 0 psig, making the plug ready for removal. The stopple plug can then be removed and a completion plug installed in the stopple fitting. When the completion plug is in place, the stoppling machine can be depressured and removed. A blind flange shall be installed over the completion plug.

PREPARATION TO CLEAN AND ENTER TANK FOR REPAIRS PROCEDURE NO. 30
I. PURPOSE
Ehtry and repairs within enclosures such as a tank or vessel must be coordinated
to ensure that adequate preparation has been made to control hazards as they relate to each other and the worker's safety.
H. SCOPE
This procedure is to be applied to all confined areas In the refinery, vessels and
tanks whether or not in active service. It shall be extended to any type of hot work performed under such circumstances.
III. GENERAL
Those who assign and supervise such work, whether contract or refinery personnel,
are accountable for the necessary safeguards while those who enter such enclosures ^ are responsible for following safe procedures.
IV. PROCEDURES
1. Safe work permits are required to cover the work to be accomplished. The hazards that are present and their degree of concentration must be deter mined. Safety precautions shall be consistent with the exposures that may b encountered. Generally, petroleum vapors are flamnable from 1% at the lower level (LEL) to 7% at the upper (UEL). An enclosed space is safe for entry and hot work without respiratory equipment under the following conditions:
a. Ventilation is adequate using explosive proof equipment and the lnterio is clean.
b. The ambient atmosphere has been vapor freed to less than 5% of the lowe explosive limit.
c. H2S concentration is found to be no more than 10 ppm.
d. Lead-in-air is found to be no more than 2 Ug/ft3 (0.075 mg/m3).
e. Oxygen content is at least 19.5%.
f. Blinding has been completed.
g. Any iron polusulfide deposits which are pyrophoric are kept wet down.
h. That the tank is effectively grounded.
v i. Added safety precautions for the particular work to be performed have ' been taken.
j. Assignments within an enclosure are limited to 8 hours a day.

PREPARATION TO CLEAN AND ENTER TANK FOR REPAIRS PROCEDURE NO. 30
2. Consideration shall be given to personal protective equipment and clothing relative- to the possible hazards that may exist in cotimencing and conpleting the work.
3. Blinding of a tank or vessel definitely requires caution in that gas fumes and product are always present. Be extronely cautious that you do not create a spark.
4. After tank is blinded, water wash all lines leading into tank. Steam the tank is steam is available. Initial cleaning is to be performed from outside a confined space.
5. Set stroke-type pump to strip all products from tank.
6. Dig hole approximately 8f x 8' at base of water draw. Remove water draw connection.
7. Fbr floating roof tanks, remove man-way plate on upwind side of tank and use 1-1/2" fire hose to wash excess product from the floor of the tank into the hole and pump to slop line or tank.
8. Remove opposite man-way and insert4a steam Jet to remove the fumes from the tank.
9. When all clear water comes through the water draw, check tank with explosive meter. When you have the tank clear of gas, you may enter the tank wearing fresh air breathing equipment, rain suit, boots, and gloves. Wash the floor of the tank. After the floor and sides of the tank are clean, the floor should be mopped to remove water from the floor.
10. The tank should be allowed to dry.- At least 60% of the floor must be dry and then a lead-in-air analysis must be taken. If results are within allowable limits the tank may then be entered without personal protective equipment.
11. A confined space may be entered for inspection with positive pressure air supplied respirator using dry-cell safety lamps for light; provided the space is drained to the lowest possible level, blinding has been accomplished and general ventilation is sufficient to maintain the vapor concentration below 20% of the lower explosive limit. No work shall be performed until the internal area is vapor free.
12. No artificial lights shall be used within a confined space until it is vapor free. Portable seal beam explosion proof lights with connectors or switches approved for hazardous locations may be used. Enclosed lights equipped with ground fault interrupters are permissible at the entrance to a confined space with the approval of the Operations and Maintenance superintendents. An electrician must confirm the proper operation of the ground fault interrupt* prior to use for each application.

PROCEDURE NO. 30
13- Check all piping as well as the entire tank for explosive atmosphere and follow hot work procedure. Tank must have a non-explosive atmosphere and proper forced air ventilation before starting to weld.
14. For welding on tank floor you must:
a. Build dike approximately 18" high around outside of tank and fill with water.
b. Inject water under tank floor with water connection near the center of the tank.
c. Have four vents equally spaced with vent lines running outside to atmosphere.
d. When water is present in all four vent holes you may proceed to" weld on floor.
e. The electric welding machine's ground lead affixed to the exterior must be securely clamped. Hooks create unnecessary arcing and this should
) be controlled to the minimum.
15. In case of lightning tank should NOT be opened. If you are working in a and lightning occurs, shut down welding and remove all personnel until lightning ceases.
16. It is preferable that tank cleaning operations be performed during the day light hours. Visibility presents problems at night which may prompt the creation of ignition sources of any vapors present.

INTERNAL FLOATING DECK UTILIZATION POLICY PROCEDURE NO. 52
PURPOSE
A definition of policy must be stated for the safe utilization of internal float ing deck tanks in service. Safety precautions for maintenance below the roof on floating decks buoyed by product are complex and more often than not impractical to adequately control the impending hazards.
SCOPE
Operating and maintenance functions are accountable for coordinating their activities involving maintenance, repair and adjustment of internal floating decks to ensure the safety of employees.
POLICY
\ 1. Thnk entry is only permissible for tanks that have been taken out of service, are free of gas, oxygen is adequate, the lead content is below the threshold limit value and exhaust ventilation has been provided.
2. Work will not be performed on a product floatation deck. Operations will give preference to transferring the product to another tank in all cases for deck repairs, leg adjustment, seal repairs, preventative maintenance and etc.
3. Inspection of a floating deck may be permitted by conplying with the tank entry procedure to ensure clean ambient air providing 3/4" x 2' plywood walking surface and utilizing a safety harness with line. In addition, two employees must tend the line constantly to ensure it is taut at all times and the employee performing the inspection shall wear a positive pressure air line respirator properly fitted.
4. In the event an emergency arises to the extent work on a floating deck becomes necessary, the matter will be subjected to the joint determina tion of the department heads from maintenance, operations, safety and the refinery manager. Safety precautions that must be exercised will be formulated accordingly at that time.

SAFETY PROCEDURE FOR MAINTENANCE WORK ORDER SYSTEM
No. 25
Issued June 15, 1976 Revised Oct. 26, 1979
I. Purpose
To provide a procedure to assure the safety of all personnel. The following procedure represents minimum requirements only. Any additional precautions deemed necessary, inconsistent with the pro cedure, should be used as directed by supervision. When in doubt, always consult your supervisor.
II. Scope
This procedure is applicable to all work being performed within the Refinery and Tank Farm as required by work orders issued during normal operations. Turnaround maintenance and construction is pre-planned taking into account safety considerations, therefore this system is not applied.
Ill. General
\ The revised maintenance work order form (copy attached) will also be used
to assure that safety precautionary measures are in order. All work to be performed within the Refinery will require a duly approved work order. The procedure for the work order system is as follows:
1. The Maintenance Craftsman, or the Contractor,that has been assigned the repair or construction work will receive the green copy of the maintenance work order form. The bottom section of the maintenance work order form serves as the safety audit for the job.
2. The Lead Craftsman (or representative for the Contractor) that is to perform the work and the Operator of the unit in which the work is to be performed, will both carefully review the work to be done at the work site and inspect the work site to assure that the work in question can be accomplished safely. If the work is in the Terminal area, the Terminal Operator for that area will be responsible for checking out the equipment and the site.
3. The Lead Craftsman (or contractor representative) and the Operator
will both sign the green copy of the work order form in the proper
space under "Work Permit" pertaining to safety considerations.
The date and hour portion should also be completed. The total work
order is now duly authorized. All work within the Refinery Units
or Tank Farm area must have a work order duly authorized prior to the
commencing of the work.
>
L-000356
4. The craft sequence on the work order provides for different types of
work to be performed with the same work order. For example, if a'
pump and motor driver are to be repaired, they can be done with
the same work order. The Electricians and Machinists would be the
Form 3FT-10 two crafts involved. In that the safety aspect is somewhat different.
m
e champlin
A Subsidiary of Union Pacific Corporation
MAINTENANCE WORK ORDER SYSTEM
craftsmen from both crafts (Electrical and Machinists) shall by their signature verify that the safety has been given consideration.
5. If the work Is not completed the same day and the equipment is not operable (but left in a safe condition), the green copy of the work order form must be left in the Control Room or a place that is highly visible (preferably on a clip board). The Operator on shift and the Craftsman must both check the appropriate block of the safety audit permit (including date and hour).
6. If the work is not completed the same day, but the equipment is left operable, the appropriate block should be checked on the green copy of the work order form (with the date and hour) and placed in a highly visible place in the Control Room. It is important that the Operator and the Craftsman both initial the proper block on the form stating the equipment is left operable.
7. When the work is completed, the bottom section of the green copy of the work order should be completed and signed by both the Operator and the Craftsman. This section certifies that the work . has been completed and the area cleaned up, and that the Operator has accepted the work and the clean up.
8. The green copy of the work order is then returned to the Craftsman's Supervisor to be filed by Planning.
Supervisors will review this procedure with all personnel at least annually.

PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) A. The review Initiator is the appropriate process, operations, project, or
reliability engineer that has primary responsibility for implementing the project/modifications. Usually the project engineer will be the Initiator for hardware-related reviews and the operations engineer will be the Initiator for procedure-related reviews. The Initiator's first responsibility is to assemble the required review information. This includes the following:
Preliminary P&ID(s) of the proposed modification(s), field checked for accuracy, or properly detailed sketches of proposed and existing hardware All applicable Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) information Basic process conditions applicable to the system being modified (e.g.. pressures, flows, temperatures, and stream compositions) Documentation of existing equipment limitations (e.g., relief valve capacities, equipment design limitations) Operating procedures applicable to the equipment under consideration. B. Once the information is assembled, the Initiator should decide whether the project meets any of the following criteria: 1) Involves handling or contacting material heated above the material's flash point 2) Involves handling or contacting material heated above the material's atmospheric boiling point 3) Involves handling or contacting toxic or reportable materials 4) Involves fired heaters 5) Involves any change in electrical classification for an area 6) Involves emergency shutdown systems, including shutdown alarm setpoints 7) Involves pressure/vacuum relief systems

HAZARD AND OPERABILITY REVIEW PROCEDURE
III. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) C. Regardless of project size, a copy of the review form and the project/modification shall be sent to a representative of all absent groups who would normally participate in a full review meeting. These representatives must approve the project/modification before it is released for construction: otherwise, these representatives must attend the pre-construction and/or pre commissioning review meetings. D. After the design drawings are complete, but before they are issued for construction, the Initiator shall reconvene all review team members who have not given final approval and shall lead the review. If the project/modification
I has been significantly changed since the initial review meeting, all affected review team members shall be recoilvened regardless of their prior approval. In no case shall fewer than three people constitute a review team, normally the project engineer, operations representative, and maintenance representative. The Initiator shall provide project documentation to all reviewers at least 3 days prior to the meeting and at least the operations representative shall check all proposed changes in the field.
E. After the completion of installation, but before commissioning, the Initiator shall reassemble all review team members who have not given final approval. If there were any significant field changes, all affected review team members shall be reconvened regardless of their prior approval. In no case shall fewer than three people constitute a review team, normally the project engineer, operations representative, and the reliability engineer. The Initiator shall lead the review.
F. Exceptions to this policy are permitted for emergency response situations or immediate needs during unit turnarounds. A three-step procedure is required in these cases:

HAZARD AND OPERABILITY REVIEW PROCEDURE
III. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) F. 1) The initiating operations representative shall attach the project authorization sheet to the Work Request indicating "Post Installation Review Required." 2) The appropriate operations representative shall approve the modification on the review form. 3) At the completion of the installation, but prior to the commissioning, the review team will meet in the field and sign off the modification on the review form. The operations representative will lead this review and determine which review team representatives shall be present. An example of the review form is attached. However, this checklist is not perfect and will not meet the needs of every situation. All review team members must look beyond the specific questions asked to ensure that other pertinent items are not overlooked. The objective of this procedure is to identify potential safety hazards or serious operability problems, not to mechanically complete forms.

PROCESS EQUIPMENT TRIP BYPASS PROCEDURE
I. PURPOSE To define the authority, circumstances, and documentation required for bypassing a process or equipment automatic shutdown (trip) device.
II. SCOPE This procedure applies to all equipment such as heaters, furnaces, boilers, compressors, steam turbines, pumps, and fuel gas/pilot gas-shutdown bypass block valves, protected by automatic safety devices.
III. GENERAL The bypassing of an automatic safety shutdown device is a serious matter and requires proper authorization and documentation. Action must be taken promptly to return the instrumentation to service once the problem or situation Fs overcome. A shutdown device should be bypassed only for the following reasons: Startup of equipment per design Routine trip testing of equipment Maintaining operation when there is potential for a false trip Malfunction of a trip device which jeopardizes plant integrity. Special operations, i.e. coke drum cutting, unit standby to conserve utilities. The Shift Supervisor and Unit Operator must think through and agree that each situation is protected prior to bypassing a trip to ensure that all necessary precautions are carried out. The keyed bypass will be wired into the computer alarm circuits where available. This will allow the alarms to appear on the computer alarm summary and printed out in the computer log.

BLOCKING IN OR REMOVAL OF IN-SERVICE RELIEF VALVES
I. PURPOSE To establish a safe procedure for blocking in or removing in-service relief valves. Provide a tracking system for subject relief valves in each operating area.
II. SCOPE This procedure applies to all employees and contractors involved in blocking in or removing in-service relief valves on Champlin equipment.
III. GENERAL When a relief valve is removed from service, a working pressure gauge will be attached to the vessel or line at the closest available point to the relief valve location. This gauge is to be closely monitored by operating personnel at that location. A plan to manually relieve the vessel is required if the pressure exceeds the Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) of the vessel being protected.
IV. PROCEDURE I. Preliminary Preparations and Precautions A. No safety relief valve may be blocked in while the equipment it is protecting is in operation unless one of the three following conditions is satisfied: 1. Approval is granted by the Area Operations Superintendent or his designee. This must be in writing; or 2. Another safety valve remains in parallel service that provides the same capacity; or 3. This safety valve is a small thermal relief type on piping and exchanger equipment.

IV. PROCEDURE (Cont'd.) 2. Removal of Valve and Substitute Over Pressure Protection A. When a safety valve is blocked in, leaving the equipment in operation unprotected from over-pressuring, all of the following conditions must be met: 1. A proven pressure gauge must be installed to the vessel or equipment at the nearest possible location to the relief valve installation. (Note: If the gauge is NOT at the same point as the relief valve, then consideration should be given to any hydraulics of the system to insure proper relief of the vessel is maintained.) 2. In the event of pressure build-up above the MAWP of the vessel, the bypass valve must be operated manually. If no PSV bypass valve exists. Operations must make adjustments to the affected system to keep the operating pressure below the MAWP. 3. If two or more employees are assigned to this operation, they must be in constant contact with each other. 4. Each employee assigned to the above operation must receive instructions in writing from an Area Supervisor before being given the assignment. 5. When process operations are normal, the control board operator and the outside operator shall monitor the affected vessel's internal pressure at least every thirty minutes. During upset conditions, this pressure must be checked more frequently. B. Once removed for repair, a relief valve should be worked on expeditiously and continuously until ready to be returned to service. For routine repair, a relief valve need not be removed from service for over twelve hours. If new relief valve internals are not in stock locally, a longer return to service time may be encountered.

REFINERY OPERATED VACUUM TRUCK SAFETY STANDARDS
PROCEDURE NO. 79
PURPOSE
A vacuum truck that services the refinery is required to have those features that make it intrinsically safe. Precautions must also be taken to ensure that operating practices conform to those requirements that control the inherent hazards of the circumstances surrounding the need for a vacuum truck.
SCOPE
Vacuum truck compliance with the safety requirements and DOT specifications is the responsibility of the respective organization that owns and operates this equipment. Champlin supervisors ordering a vacuum truck may decline acceptance of a vendor's services should the unit be considered lacking the essential safety features for the job.
SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1. The vacuum drive shall be powered by a separate diesel engine equipped with a high level control.
2. Engine exhaust stack should be equipped with a flame arrestor, but must be vertical in order not to exhaust under the truck.
3. Trucks should have no catalytic converter or other excessive hot spot.
4. A safety venturi should be Installed that will dissipate vapors discharged at a diluted (too lean to burn) rate for most of the loading operation above the tank and away from the exhaust at the flammable range. As an alternative, the discharge of the vacuum pump must be vented by hose or other means to a remote location. This will eliminate flammable vapors from accumulating under or near the truck at grade level while loading on a vacuum.
5. Flammable liquids are to be discharged through gravity flow or a regular pump rather than by air pressure. Less air will mix with the flammable vapors inside and not create a possible pressurized flammable mixture inside the vacuum tank. This would also prevent a possible pressurized tank with a flammable mixture being present and later being driven down the highway. OSHA has prohibited using air to discharge flammable or combustible liquids in plant systems. The use of air to discharge a flammable liquid has long been recognized as a poor safety practice.
6. Each vacuum truck shall have a small combustible gas indicator. Gas tests shall be taken on a calm or little wind day prior to picking up a flammable liquid spill or anytime it is necessary to position the truck downwind of a. pickup point.

7. 8.
9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14.
Operational check of safety valve is necessary on the regular preventa tive maintenance schedule of vehicle with an annual mechanics inspection and service of safety valve.
A bonding cable must be attached to the truck on a reel. Whenever loading or discharging a flammable liquid, the truck shall be bonded to the source and the source ground. The only occasion where bonding and ground ing may not be practical would be while picking up a remote flammable liquid spill.
Non-skid surface should be Installed on all -regular steps, walkways, etc. on the truck. Slipping and falling are some of the more common injuries around vacuum trucks.
A minimum of 30 to AO feet of hose for loading purposes is necessary in order for truck to be parked a safe distance away from flammable liquid spills.
Vacuum trucks that may be subject to hauling a toxic product, especially one containing hydrogen sulfide, shall be equipped with a self contained air escape pack.
Vacuum truck drivers shall have had training and be reinstructed annually. This training shall include an understanding of the safe rules and procedures in the operation of a vacuum truck and an awareness of potential fire hazards when handling flammable or combustible products.
Those who operate vacuum trucks shall be assigned to this equipment and must possess a valid Texas driver's licence suitable for transporting waste cargo over the highway.
The tank of the vacuum truck shall be designed to permit interior water washing and steam cleaning from the exterior.

VACUIM TRUCK OPERATION PROCEDURE NO. 57
PURPOSE
The operation of a vacuum truck must conform with those practices that ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.
SCOPE
Adequate controls are to be exercised in the onsite operation of a vacuum truck. While there are those responsibilities of the vacuum truck personnel, Champlin supervisors shall require that the proper safety precautions are followed:
1. The truck should be kept clean and free of residual materials. Normal stepping positions shall be painted with a non-skid grit surface. Slipping and falling are some of the more corrmon injuries around vacuum trucks.
2. Serious personnel hazards are practically non-existent around vacuum trucks while operating on vacuum. The operator should nevertheless stay within the area where the vacuum truck is in use.
3. There are several potential hazards associated in pressurizing the tank for unloading.
a. Remain clear of unloading line hook up. Liquid products, rocks, etc. can come out under considerable pressure. People have been knocked over and rolled along the ground which caused bad bruises under such circumstances.
b. The trucks should be operated within the operational pressure limits at all times. Top domes and tank domes have been blown off from over-pressurizing the tank.
c. Never pressurize a tank to unload a flammable product. This may create a flaimable vapor mixture under pressure.
d. Once the tank has been pressurized, it must be depressurized prior to driving it on any road or highway.
4. Balance the pressure within the tank to atmospheric pressure whenever going to pressure from a vacuum; or to a vacuum after being pressurized.
5. Never use any external pressure source (outside the truck) to pressurize the truck for unloading.
Form SFT-10 (8-77)

L-000418
VACUUM TRUCK OPERATION
PROCEDURE NO. 57
6. Chemicals, acids, etc., that are not compatible with water or hydrocarbons shall not be picked up with a vacuum truck. Such chemicals may produce toxic vapors, heat, or cause a fire or explosion.
7. Cleaning out the tank on a vacuum truck is performed in the same manner as cleaning any other tank. If flammables or toxic products have been hauled and if people are to enter these tanks, the same procedures must be followed that apply to cleaning any other small tank.
8. Most of the hazards around a vacuum truck occur when they are used for hauling a flammable or combustible product or products containing toxic vapors. Fhceshield, respirator, a chemical suit, gloves, boots and a fire extinguisher should be available on the vacuum truck for emergency use.
5. The vacuum truck should be positioned upwind preferably, otherwise cross wind, but never downwind of any pick up point unless combustible gas tests indicate no flarrmable vapors present and the layout is prohibitive for taking advantage of the wind.
10. Vacuum trucks shall not be used around process areas unless gas tests' indicate no flammable vapors.
11. When little or no wind is blowing, no pick up of flammable liquid spills shall be made unless gas tests indicate no flammable vapors. The truck is to be at least 30 to 40 feet away from the spill area.
12. The vacuum truck shall have at least 30 to 40 feet of suction hose (minimum) to permit locating the truck a reasonable distance from a spill area.
13. Bonding and grounding of vacuum trucks is essential. Treat all material as if it emits flammable vapors in order to protect against such possibilities. When loading or discharging a flammable liquid, the truck and source should be bonded and the source should be grounded. This is not very practical to do when picking up a remote flammable liquid spill, however, all other times it shall be dene.
'14. Set the portable fire extinguisher off the truck and upwind some 20 - 25 feet from the truck whenever loading or unloading flammable liquids. Unloading of a flammable product shall be through a pump and not discharged with air.
15. Since there is a potential fire hazard when loading or unloading a flammable product, or loading any product following the transport of a flammable product, no smoking shall be allowed.

16. Handling crude oil or other products containing hydrogen sulfide with a vacuum truck has the same HjS potential as found in other production operations where the H2S hazard is present. a. When operating in a closed system, there is no H2S hazard as long as there are no leaks. b. There may be a hazard when hooking up or disconnecting the vacuum truck's lines. This is especially true when disconnecting after a toxic product has been flowing through the lines. Precautions must be taken to control this - breathing equipment may be necessary. c. Whenever picking up a spill of any product containing H2S, always keep upwind; and if there is little or no wind, test atmosphere with an H2S level indicator to determine whether breathing equipment is needed.
17. Clean up any spilled product without delay. 18. Vacuum truck operations should not be done at night except under emergency
situations and only with the authority of the Area Superintendent or his designated representative.

FIREWATER SYSTEM USE FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN FIRE FIGHTING
PROCEDURE NO. 64
PURPOSE
Uncontrolled use of water from fire suppression systems has the potential of
rendering its integrity and capability insufficient in the event of fire. Indiscriminate use of water from this system therefore cannot be tolerated.
Limited use under controlled circumstances is permissible to keep the demand on fire water at the minimun and hold the system in reserve.
SCOPE
Use of fire water for an inminent emergency does not fall within this procedure.
) Activities which use water tint require taking it from fire hydrants, monitors or other connections to the fire control systems are covered by this procedure.
Use of Fire System for other than its Intended Purpose;
The job Supervisors (operations, maintenance or contract), area superintendent and operator must determine when any part of the fire water system is required for other uses. Should this be essential, prior arrangements must be made with the Safety department as outlined herein. A log of this activity will be maintained by the Safety secretary. Notification of discontinuance is mandatory.
1. Application of 1 1/2 inch rigid hose reels to wash down is permissible. Hose must be wound on reel after each use and nozzle must be on hose.
,2. ' Fire hoses must remain at unit stations in reserve for suppression of fire, control of spills and other emergencies having dangerous potential, ffeintenance hose shall be used for other water demanding activities including the fire watch.
3. Use of the fire water systems hydrants or plugs with maintenance hose for fire watches is permitted. Monitors must not be adapted for such use.
4. The tool roan will stock an adequate amount of 2 1/2 inch, 1 1/2 inch 300 psi hose with national standard thread in 50 foot lengths for mainten ance use. A supply of adaptors such as hexagon internal national standard thread to external international pipe thread, hexagon external I.P.T. to N.S.T., and etc., shall also be available for both hose sizes.
) 5. Temporary tight connections are to be made only on a fire hydrant and
approval by the Safety office is required. In such instances, the adaptor illustrated herein must be employed. Such tight connections must be removed at the adaptor when not in actual use.

FIREWATER SYSTEM USE FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN FIRE FIGHTING____
PROCEDURE NO. 64
6. The use of monitors or line hose reels in a manner that alters them or leaves them unattended is not allowed. For example, removal of a nozzle fran a monitor and installing a hose line to establish a water source is not an accepted practice, neither is removal of a nozzle fran any hose station for use with maintenance hose.
7. Use of firewater to fill or wash our process vessels or tanks without tight connections or washing down with monitors requires notification to the Safety office. The possibility of reverse flow or siphoning must be eliminated by installing a check valve in such a water supply line, whether made up of hose or pipe.
8. Operations shall monitor water usage to ensure that there is an ample supply in reserve to sustain the processes and as necessary to aunent the fire water system.

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM
I. PURPOSE This procedure defines guidelines applicable to respiratory protection where a known air contaminant does (or may) exist. It also identifies work practices, equipment and training requirements applicable to the use of respiratory protection. This procedure outlines information for personnel using respiratory protection per OSHA CFR 1910.134.
II. SCOPE Champlin Refining Company shall provide the type respirator that offers adequate protection against atmospheric contamination exposures and oxygen deficient atmospheres. Respiratory protective equipment must be specifically approved by NIOSH for a given application.
III. RESPIRATOR DESCRIPTION AND USE A. Air Supplying Respirators Air supplying respirators are those which provide breathable air to the user. They include the following: 1. Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) are devices that have a portable supply of breathable air. The air affords protection against the inhalation of toxic gases or a lack of adequate oxygen. Champlin utilizes the Scott brand of SCBA. Champlin has the 30 minute and 5 minute air paks in both low and Ugh pressure models (Scott II-A and Scott 4.5). The five minute paks are for escape purposes only and do not contain a warning sound indicating a low air supply. All air paks are strategically located throughout various process units, on the fire truck and at the safety office. Employees assigned to each operating area are responsible for knowing the location of their SCBA(s).

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION PROGRAM
III. RESPIRATOR DESCRIPTION AND USE (Cont'd.) A. 2. Air Supplied Escape Respirators Champlin utilizes the Scott Ska-Pak in the 50 Block for escape purposes only. This unit supplies 5 minutes of breathable air to the user should an emergency release occur. 3. Combination Self-Contained and Air-Supplying Respirators This type of apparatus receives breathing air through an air line hose. Air is supplied from a bank of large breathing air cylinders located remotely away from the user, or from an air cart. The respirator unit is sometimes combined with a 5 minute escape cylinder worn on the user's hip. The escape cylinder is designed to provide a limited amount of air if the regular air line supply is cut off. The 5-minute escape pak is mandatory in an IDLH (Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health) atmosphere. Hose line units, with spare masks and related equipment are available on air trailers and at the safety office. The breathing air trailers are to be checked for readiness by Safety and/or the maintenance supervisor prior to use. When air line respiratory equipment is used, it is mandatory that a person be stationed at the bottle rack or trailer to insure the proper operation of the units. Bottles must be switched when the pressure reaches 250 psig. B. Air Purifying Respirators An air purifying respirator is a device equipped with filter pads or cartridges designed to trap limited amounts of specified air contaminates. They are not suitable for use in oxygen deficient atmospheres. 1. This respirator removes gases and/or vapors by passing the contaminated air through cartridges containing charcoal or other special material which intercepts the contaminates. Cartridges are to be specifically approved to filter the contaminant it is used to protect against.

RADIATION SAFETY PROGRAM
I. PURPOSE Use of radioactive materials are to be controlled to ensure that employees are not exposed to harmful radiation, and that radioactive materials are not lost or released to the environment.
II. SCOPE This radiation safety program applies to the procurement of all radioactive materials, radiation devices and radiation services. It also applies to all areas in the refinery where radioactive materials or radiation devices are used, installed, or stored.
IH. PROCUREMENT OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS, RADIATION DEVICES AND SERVICES Before a purchase order is issued for procurement of any radioactive materials, radiation devices, or radiation services, the approval of the Safety Department Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) must be obtained. It is the duty of the RSO to obtain the necessary license or regulatory agency approval and to inform the buyer of any restrictions.
IV. INSTALLATION, RELOCATION, OR REMOVAL OF DEVICES CONTAINING RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS 1. Personnel who determine that any device containing radioactive material is to be installed, relocated or removed by either Champlin personnel or outside contractors must inform the Radiation Safety Officer. 2. If the work is to be performed by Champlin personnel, then it will be conducted by or under the direct supervision of an individual authorized on the Texas Radioactive Material License. If the work is to be performed by an outside contractor, the RSO will determine if they are properly licensed for such activities.

RADIATION SAFETY PROGRAM
IV. INSTALLATION, RELOCATION, OR REMOVAL OF DEVICES CONTAINING RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS (Cont'd.) 3. Upon receipt of a device containing radioactive material, the RSO will survey it to determine if it is properly shielded. 4. Prior to removal of a radioactive gauge from storage, the RSO will ascertain that the radioactive source is properly shielded, and secured or locked in that position. 5. After installation or relocation, the RSO will perform an initial radiation survey or obtain it from the outside contractor.
V. PERSONNEL MONITORING 1. Routine personnel monitoring is not required at the refinery during normal usage, installation, relocation or removal of a radioactive gauge. Since the Radiation levels are very low; no one is expected to receive a dose of 300 mrem in a calendar quarter. 2. If the RSO determines from a physical radiation and anticipated workload that an individual is likely to receive a dose of 300 mrem in that calendar quarter, then that individual will be provided a pocket dosimeter and a record of his dose maintained by the RSO.
VI. STORAGE OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS 1. Devices containing radioactive materials may be temporarily stored in any normally unoccupied and secure location within the refinery provided that the source is secured or locked within the device and that the device is appropriately labelled with a "Caution - Radioactive Material" sign. The area or room must be secured or locked to prevent unauthorized removal of the device. 2. The RSO must be informed when the device is placed into long term storage and will post the area with a "Caution - Radioactive Material" sign if necessary.

RADIATION SAFETY PROGRAM
VII. \
POSTING. LABELLING AND ENTRY PERMITS 1. Although Texas Regulations for Control of Radiation 21.204(a) excepts a room
or area from posting because of a sealed source whose radiation level does not exceed 5 mrem/hr at 12 inches from the surface of the source container or housing, it is the policy of Champlin to post such areas where practical so that personnel are aware of the presence of radioactive material. 2. Personnel must obtain an entry permit from the RSO before entering vessels or enclosures which contain radioactive devices. The RSO will return the radioactive source to its shielded position, secure the source and place a lock out tag on the device until the work inside is completed. 4. Each device containing a radioactive material shall be labelled with a "Caution - Radioactive Material" sign and a label which identifies the radioisotope and its activity including date of measurement or reference.
VIII.
EMERGENCIES If a radioactive device is involved in a fire or explosion, the Radiation Safety Officer shall be notified and personnel should not enter the area, except to save a life, until the RSO has conducted a survey.
