29 CFR 1910.22(a)(2): Drainage is not maintained where wet processes are in use: The employer does not ensure that walking/working surfaces around process equipment are kept drained. This violation was last observed on or about August 13, 2009, and at times prior thereto, at these locations: a) in the Hydrocracker Unit (HCU), at the third level work deck next to the K- 2300 compressor, where steam condensate was allowed to accumulate (form algae), creating a slip hazard. b) directly across the plant road from the HF Alky Unit operator shelter, beside the emergency mitigation water pump (G-7964) station in the diked area, where employees walk through for weekly inspection and servicing of the pump equipment, creating a slip hazard. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1903.19, within ten (10) calendar days of the date of this citation, the employer must submit documentation that it is in compliance with the standard, including ensuring that regular and spot walkaround visual inspections are performed to keep walking/working surfaces with process areas drained and free of standing water.
