Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003 Hazard: REFINERY

29 CFR 1910.119(d)(3)(i)(B): Process safety information pertaining to the equipment in the process did not include the piping and instrument diagrams (P&ID'S): At the facility, the employer had not verified that all P&ID's were up to date and accurate for use by Coffeyville Refinery employee(s) and contractors for line breaks, equipment/piping replacement repairs, etc. Five piping circuits were evaluated and the following was noted: (a) Drawing #35AA0033 (document #69, page 32 of 73), a 3/4" bleeder valve and a 3" gate valve on pipe line 2"-P1303-1513 were observed on the pipe line prior to entering the fractionator overhead receiver. The two valves were not drawn on the P&ID. (b) Drawing #35AA0015 (document #69, page 14 of 73), a 2" gate valve on pipe line 2"-P1508-1513-1 1/2" H exiting the high pressure separator was not observed during the walk around. The P&ID for this pipe line has a 2" gate valve drawn on the P&ID. (c) Drawing #35AA0015 (document #69, page 14 of 73), a 3/4" bleeder valve was observed after the control valve during the walk around on pipe line 2"-P1508-1513-1 1/2"H, this pipe line was exiting the high pressure separator. The 3/4" bleeder valve was not drawn on the P&ID. (d) Drawing #33AA0034 (document #69, page 43 of 103), during the walk around of pipe line 4"-P3402-3013 after pump [P0815(N)], a 3/4" bleeder valve and a 3" gate valve were not observed, but were drawn on the P&ID. (e) Drawing #33AA0034 (document #69, page 44 of 103), during the walk around of pipe line 6"-P3506-3013 before the pumps, a capped flange was observed on the pipe line exiting the depropanizer overhead receiver. The capped flange was not drawn on the P&ID. (f) Drawing #33AA0022a (document #69, page 24 of 103), a flange was observed before the 4" gate valve during the walk around of pipe line 4"-P2214-3012. The pipe line was exiting olefin surge drum. Two flanges were observed on the pipe line before the pumps (P0996 & P0748), and one flange after the pumps. The flanges were not drawn on the P&ID. (g) Drawing #35AA0031 (document #69, page 30 of 73), during the walk around of pipe line 35-14"-0-029-197-J148-3" -H, 2 - 6" to 4" reducers were not observed on the pipe line prior to entering the lco stripper tower. These 2 - 6" to 4" reducers were drawn in prior to a 4" gate valve on the P&ID. (h) Drawing #33AA0024 (document #69, page 23 of 73), during the walk around of pipe line 35-6"-0-024-191-J148, pressure gauges were observed on a 3/4" bleeder valve before pump (P3411) and after pump (P3410), these pressure gauges were not drawn on the P&ID. Employees were exposed to release of volatile organic compounds (VOC)s to atmosphere that have resulted in explosion and fire leading to death and injury to persons in or near the facility. 29 CFR 1903.19(d)(1) requires certification and documentation that the abatement of the above violation is completed.
