This taped 911 call is being provided for others to learn from. Many of us think that dialing 911 and effectively communicating with the emergency dispatcher needs no training.

Imagine that it is your loved one lying and waiting for help to arrive and this...

On average, we conduct around a dozen flammable liquid safety audits each year and I can not think of an audit where we were not asked about the ventilation requirements in 1910.106(e)(3)(v)(a) and/or NFPA 30, 17.11.1-10. Both of these standards require an area where a Class I Flammable Liquid is being transferred or dispensed be ventilated at a rate of not less than 1 cubic foot per...

Anyone involved with PSM/RMP knows about “facility siting” and all the attention it has gotten since the Texas City, TX incident in 2005. Many companies struggle with this type of analysis, so I am passing along some great data that could be used during an expansion project at an existing facility or for a new facility. PLEASE note that even if your process does NOT fall under...

Ordinary glass containers exposed to heat will fail at about 212F (100C) due to thermally induced stress. Storage cabinets are designed to offer protection from radiant heat, but only for a limited time of intense fire exposure. The user MUST recognize these limitations.

Shoot me and hate me forever, but I am having a week moment in the hopes that I bring a smile to your face. I am bit ashamed to be posting this, but since no one was physically harmed in the video I thought we could use a chuckle to start the week.

Over the past several years I have written many articles on the “safeguards” that get listed in Process Hazards Analysis. In this article I want to focus our attention on the flaws that so many facilities are making in their PHAs.
