Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 018 Hazard: REFINERY

29 CFR 1910.119(g)(1)(i): The employer does not initially train each employee, presently involved in operating a process, in an overview of the process and in the operating procedures as specified in 29 CFR 1910.119(f). (a) This violation occurred on or about January 27, 2009, and times prior thereto, where the employer did not initially train each employee presently involved in operating a process, in the operating procedures for the #2 Crude Unit pressure relief system which includes the pressure relief valves, the knockout pot and the flare. 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 written operating procedures are developed and implemented that detail how pressure relief valve discharge, knock out pot operation and flare operations will be handled at the #2 Crude Unit. In addition operators of the unit must review the operating procedures, be trained on the procedures and the employer must ascertain if each employee involved in operating the process has received and understood the training.d
