Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 006 Hazard:

29 CFR 1910.119(f)(3): The operating procedures were not reviewed as often as necessary to assure that they reflect current operating practice, including changes that result from changes in process chemicals, technology, and equipment, and changes to facilities. The employer did not annually certify that operating procedures were current and accurate. On or about November 16, 2017, at the Double R Brand Foods facility located in Lufkin Texas, the employer did not annually certify operating procedures to ensure that they are current and accurate. The following inaccuracies were noted: a) SOP-11-Line Opening/Oil Draining, Revision #0 (5/30/14). The procedure was not annually certified from 2016 through 2017 and was found to be inaccurate, in that the Reference Documents section listed Piping and Instrument Diagrams (P&ID) from 01 through 08, when there are only 3 P&ID (PID 101-103). The Assemble Equipment section did not include used oil drum. It further stated that a Full face type Air Purifying Respirator (APR) with Ammonia Cartridges installed must be donned above 35ppm, when there is no indicator to detect ammonia release at 35 ppm. The Oil Pot Training Procedures did not include steps to drain oil from the Pump-out Accumulator V-07 directly to a used oil drum. b) SOP-02-Compressor Operation, Revision #0 (5/30/14). The procedure was not annually certified from 2016 through 2017 and was found to be inaccurate. The procedure indicated compressor numbers from #1 through #10 instead of LS1-LS4 and HS1-HS6.
