Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 005 Hazard: REFINERY
29 CFR 1910.119(e)(3)(iv): The process hazard analysis did not address the consequences of failure of engineering and administrative controls: a) Sunoco, Inc. Marcus Hook Refinery, 10-4 FCCU - The employer did ensure that the 1996 process hazard analysis (PHA) addressed the consequences of closing a valve on a vent discharge of a relief device. This is evidenced by the fact that the PHA did not identify the potential for closed vent valves on balanced bellows relief valves, including SV5085 through SV 5088, located on the V-12 overhead receiver. Condition noted on or about February 18, 2009. b) Sunoco, Inc. Marcus Hook Refinery, 10-4 FCCU - The employer did ensure that the 2001 process hazard analysis (PHA) addressed the consequences of closing a valve on a vent discharge of a relief device. This is evidenced by the fact that the PHA did not identify the potential for closed vent valves on balanced bellows relief valves, including SV5085 through SV 5088, located on the V-12 overhead receiver. Condition noted on or about February 18, 2009. c) Sunoco, Inc. Marcus Hook Refinery, 10-4 FCCU - The employer did ensure that the 2006 process hazard analysis (PHA) addressed the consequences of closing a valve on a vent discharge of a relief device. This is evidenced by the fact that the PHA did not identify the potential for closed vent valves on balanced bellows relief valves, including SV5085 through SV 5088, located on the V-12 overhead receiver. Condition noted on or about February 18, 2009. NOTE: DOCUMENTATION OF ABATEMENT OF THIS CONDITION IS REQUIRED
