29 CFR 1910.147(d)(5)(i): All potentially hazardous stored or residual energy was not relieved, disconnected, restrained or otherwise rendered safe after the application of lockout or tagout devices to energy isolating devices: (a) On or about October 11, 2018, employees were not able to determine that the organic trap holding tank in the CN/DN area was empty on the water side of the Weir panel when they locked it out for maintenance, which caused a spill of waste water and hazardous chemicals, such as but not limited to acrylonitrile and styrene, when an employee attempted to open the manway on the water side and was splashed with the contents from the top of the water side of the tank. In accordance with 29 CFR 1903.19(d), abatement certification is required for this violation (using the CERTIFICATION OF CORRECTIVE ACTION WORKSHEET), and in addition, documentation demonstrating that abatement is complete must be included with your certification. This documentation may include, but is not limited to, evidence of the purchase or repair of the equipment, photographic or video evidence, or written records.
