29 CFR 1910.119(e)(5): The employer did not establish a system to promptly addre ss the team's findings and recommendations; assure that the recommendations are resolved in a timely manner and that the resolution is documented; document what actions are to be taken; complete actions as soon as possible; develop a writte n schedule of when these actions are to be completed; communicate the actions to operating, maintenance and other employees whose work assignments are in the pr ocess and who may be affected by the recommendations or actions. A.The employer does not consistently ensure that recommendations and/or corrective actions from PHAs are resolved. This violation was observed on or about March 3, 2010. It was observed that the response to the recommendation from Node 5 Quest ion 15 of the initial PHA stated that relief valves PSV 1911 and PSV 1912 in the Platformer Unit were removed during the 1995 turnaround. PSV 1911 appears on P& ID 19-E-54-3000 and PSV 1912 appears on P&ID 19-E-54-4000. Both P&IDs were field validated in March 17, 2009. PSV 1911 is still in service, but PSV 1912 has bee n removed. A failure to effectively document resolutions can result in fire and explosion hazards to employees.
