SAFETY REPORT SINCLAIR REFINING COMPANY. Parc o , Wyoming ' 11/4/36 Parties contacted -j Mr. L. I.U Johnston, Superintendent Mr. C. F. Briggs, Blending Plant foreman. See inspection report dated November 4, 1936, Mr. Johnston Tas familiar with our instructions for tank cleaning and stated that they would be followed to the letter If they had to clean a leaded gasoline tank. They have not cleaned a tank to date at Parco and doiibt if they will for some time. Tanks are all reported^ to be in good condition at the present. Due to lack of experience Mr. Johnston had to assume hovf some of the points In question would be handled. Mr. Johnston did not know of any inslruction from their home office on tank cleaning. In cheeking over their files we found that booklet titled, "Rules and Instruction For Guidance of Employees", covers tanking cleaning to some extent from view point of fire hazord mostly. The refinery complies 'with safety instructions of Safety Engineer, Mr. Joe Berad, of "heir East Chicago office. He visits refinery about every three months and conducts safety meetings. In his absence Mr. Joe Johnston, crude still foreman, checks on regultion. national Safety Council Bulletins are posted about plant. In view of regulations set up by other refining companies covering covering tank cleaning operations in general I would say that Sinclair do not have ample printed instructions. B. G. Oran KE 0022949
