Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 024 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.119(e)(3)(iv): Process hazard analysis. The process hazard analysis shall address: Consequences of failure of engineering and administrative controls: The consequences of engineering and administrative control failure were not addressed during process hazard analysis, such as but not limited to: a. Phosphites and chlorination PHA revalidation: the PHA team(s) failed to identify consequences of failure of engineering and administrative controls by using the engineering control as the safeguard to remedy the same failed control. When temperature control failure was considered, the safeguard mentioned was the temperature control itself. b. Phosphites and chlorination PHA revalidation: the PHA team(s) failed to identify consequences of failure of engineering and administrative controls by stating that pressure events, high temperature events and safety device releases were of operational concern or environmental consequence only. c. Phosphites and chlorination PHA revalidation: the PHA team(s) failed to identify consequences of failure of engineering and administrative controls by stating that preventive or predictive maintenance programs for assuring integrity of process equipment and safety systems were production and product quality concerns.
