Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.119(i)(1): The employer did not perform a pre-startup safety review for new facilities and for modified facilities when the modification was significant enough to require a change in the process safety information. At the time of the inspection, the employer had not performed a complete pre-startup safety review to confirm that prior to the introduction of ammonia in the refrigeration equipment all process safety requirements were in effect. The pre-startup review checklist identified areas where safety requirements had not been met. Abatement certification and abatement documentation is required for this violation. The documentation should include written verification of abatement, applicable measurements or monitoring results, and photographs or videos which you believe will be helpful. The abatement certification sheet is enclosed with the citations.
