29 CFR 1910.119(m)(2): Incident investigations were not initiated as promptly as possible, but not later than 48 hours following the incident: (a)Suncor Energy (U.S.A.), Inc., 5801 Brighton Blvd., Commerce City, Colorado: A release to atmosphere involving D-73 and W-36 in the #1 Crude unit occurred on or about December 16, 2008 and was not assigned to a person for investigation until December 19, 2008 and was not assigned to a team for investigation until on or about January 8, 2009.

(b)Investigation of an overpressure of TK400 which occurred on or about August 1, 2008, did not begin until August 15, 2008. Delay of investigation increases employee exposure to the hazards of hydrogen sulfide, fire, and explosion due to loss of containment.
