Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.119(f)(3): The operating procedures were not reviewed as often as necessary to assure that they reflect current operating practice, including changes that result from changes in process chemicals, technology, and equipment, and changes to facilities. The employer shall certify annually that these operating procedures are current and accurate. This violation was most recently observed on or about July 21, 2015 and time thereafter, in the Magic Valley Frozen Ammonia Refrigeration Process, when the employer failed to ensure the Total System Shut Down Procedure (SOP) was current and accurate to reflect current operating practice, including changes that resulted from changes in process equipment.
