Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.119(d)(3)(i)(B): The employer's piping and instrument diagrams were not accurate and did not represent equipment that was existing and was part of the process: a) P&ID R1.1 indicated a t-section junction with the 12 inch LSS pipe line, containing valve LTRP-01 and connecting to the Low Temp Accumulator, that joins the 12 inch LSS pipe line between the 5 inch LSS pipe line connecting to the "Removed From Service" Swing Compressor SW-1 t-section junction and the 4 inch LSS pipe line connecting to the Booster Compressor B-1 t-section junction. The 12 inch LSS pipe line, containing valve LTRP-01 and connecting to the Low Temp Accumulator, actually joins the 12 inch LSS pipe line between the 5 inch LSS pipe line connecting to the Removed From Service Swing Compressor SW-1 t-section junction and the 5 inch LSS pipe line connecting to the Booster Compressor B-2 t-section junction. b) P&ID R1.1 was missing a HPL pipe section that connected the HPL pipe section containing valve MTRP-1 101 and HPL pipe section containing valve MTRP-01 100. The missing HPL pipe section joins the first pipe section between valve MTRP-1 101 and the 2 inch HPL t-section junction. The missing HPL pipe section joins the second pipe section between valve MTRP-1 100 and the 2 inch HPL t-section junction. c) P&ID R1.1 indicated a t-section junction with the 1.5 inch EQ pipe line, containing valve HPR-01 300, that joins with the 4 inch CD pipe line between valve HPR-1 104 and the t-section junction 1.5 inch HGD which contains valve AUX 305. The 1.5 inch EQ pipe line, containing valve HPR-01 300, actually joins the 1.5 HGD pipe line, containing valve AUX 305, between the t-section junction with the 4 inch CD pipe line and valve AUX 305. d) P&ID R1.1 has two valves labeled LTRP-01 129. One valve labeled LTRP-01 129 is part of the LTRL piping for ammonia pump AP01 and the other valve is part of the LTRL piping for ammonia pump AP02. e) P&ID R1.2 indicated a capped pipe section containing valve CE-01 600 joining the 0.75 inch HTRL pipe line between valves CE-01 100 and CE-01 101 within the piping associated with evaporator CE 01. The capped pipe section containing valve CE-01 600 was not physically present. f) P&ID R1.2 indicated a capped pipe section containing valve CE-03 600 joining the 0.75 inch HTRL pipe line between valves CE-03 100 and CE-03 101 within the piping associated with evaporator CE 03. The capped pipe section containing valve CE-03 600 was not physically present. g) P&ID R1.2 indicated a capped pipe section containing valve FE-01 600 joining the 0.75 inch LTRL pipe line between valve FE-01 102 and a t-section junction with the 0.75 inch HTRL pipe line containing valve FE-01 101within the piping associated with evaporator CE 01. The capped pipe section containing valve FE-01 600 was not physically present. h) P&ID R1.2 indicated a capped pipe section containing valve DE-04 600 joining the 0.75 inch HTRL pipe line between valves DE-04 100 and DE-04 101 within the piping associated with evaporator DE 04. The capped pipe section containing valve DE-04 600 was not physically present. i) P&ID R1.3 indicated a capped pipe section containing valve FE-04 600 joining the 0.75 inch LTRL pipe line between valves FE-04 100 and FE-04 101 within the piping associated with evaporator FE 04. The capped pipe section containing valve FE-04 600 was not physically present. j) P&ID R1.1 indicated the 4 inch CD pipe section containing valve EC-01 101, the 4inch CD pipe section containing EC-01 100, the 4 inch CD pipe section containing valve EC-02 101, and the 4 inch CD pipe section containing valve EC-02 100 all join the 4 inch CD pipe line containing the Tie-In For Future EC-3 through T-section junctions. The 4 inch CD pipe line containing the Tie-In For Future EC-3 actually joins a forked pipe section containing valves EC-01 100 and EC-01 101 for Evaporative Condenser EC-01, and a forked pipe section containing valves EC-102 100 and EC-02 101 for Evaporative Condenser EC-02.
