The SHAC chairman explained the enhancement to STOP where we all can see a surmary of all the observations for Identifying trends.

Old Business People not leaving keys In cars parked In the plant was discussed. The PMSB has come up with the answer to the problem by allowing keys to be removed from vehicles In the plant only where the are parked in des ignated parking spaces. The key point to remember Is whether or not the vehicle might need to be moved If an emergency occurrs.

This will be referred to Materials Handling and Maintenance for an answer. Follow-up is required to make sure a solution Is found. A hose on the docks was tested 1/17/84. It was understood that a 30 minute test was adequate. The next day the hose was used and It leaked. How long must a test be held to get an accurate test? Plant Engineering Technical Services Investigated this problem and agrees that a thirty minute test Is enough for any hose forty feet or less. More follow-up Is required for finding out the details on the case in question. New Business Several places In the plant were observed by members of the Hourly Safety Committee that an emergency alarm cannot be heard. The Hourly Safety Committee Representatives need to meet with the Unit/Craft Safety Representatives and have them check for these areas in their work areas. It was stated by the chairman of the Hourly Safety Committee that all of the Hourly Safety Committee Representatives should contact the safety representatIves of the areas that they represent after our monthly meeting.
