Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.119(d)(3)(ii): The employer shall document that equipment complies with recognized and generally accepted good engineering practices: At the facility located at 1330 Lime Kiln Road, Green Bay, WI 54311; the employer did not document that equipment complied with recognized and generally accepted good engineering practices (RAGAGEP): b) The ammonia detection systems in the Old Engine Room and New Engine Room would not automatically de-energize any equipment at any concentration of ammonia. The employer implemented IIAR 2-2014 for design of the ammonia detectors which required the automatic de-energization of refrigerant compressors, refrigerant pumps and normally closed automatic refrigerant valves that were not part of an emergency control system if ammonia concentrations equaled or exceeded the upper detection limits of the sensors or a concentration of 40,000 ppm (25% LFL).
