29 CFR 1910.119(e)(3)(vii) The process hazard analysis does not include a qualitative evaluation of a range of the possible safety and health effects of failure of controls on employees in the workplace: This violation occurred on or about January 27, 2009, and times prior thereto, where the employer's process hazard analysis (1995, 1997, 2001 and 2006) conducted for the #2 Crude Unit did not address a qualitative evaluation of the possible safety and health effects of failure of controls on employees in the workplace. This condition exposed employees to a fire and explosion hazard. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1903.19(d), within 10 calendar days of the date of this citation, the employer must submit documentation showing that it is in compliance with the standard, including describing the steps it is taking to ensure that control failure has adequately been addressed and will be incorporated into the process hazard analysis.
