Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 003E Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.147(f)(3)(ii): Group lockout or tagout devices were not used in accordance with procedures required by 29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4): (a) DCP Services LLC, at Highway 392 and Weld County Road 71, N 0.9, W 0.2, Briggsdale, CO: On 11/16/17, group lockout or tagout devices were not used in accordance with procedures required by 29 CFR 1910.147(c)(4). Employees of DCP Services LLC and Complete Energy Services Inc. were involved in the removal of a hydrate blockage within a DCP Services LLC pipeline. DCP Services LLC directed the operation. The DCP Services LLC pipeline transported approximately 350 psi natural gas and other products of crude oil and gas extraction. The high pressure natural gas was both a pneumatic energy source and a thermal energy source. An employee of DCP Services LLC closed pipeline valves, vented a compressor, and shut off a starter. DCP Services LLC did not ensure that all authorized employees affixed a personal lockout device to a group lockout device before beginning the blow down. This condition exposed an employee of DCP Services LLC and employees of Complete Energy Services Inc. to uncontrolled energy hazards.
