Chevron Refinery in Richmond the largest oil refinery in Northern California. This is an overview of refinery fire in 2012, including event timeline leading to disaster and the aftermath.
Read the incident scenario, and write a response that is at least th.docxniraj57
Read the incident scenario, and write a response that is at least three pages in length. Your response must include answers to the questions being asked. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced. Paraphrased and/or quoted materials must have accompanying in-text and reference citations in APA format.
Scenario:
You are the Refinery Emergency Response Coordinator for an incident at the SJV Refinery which has been in operation since 1966. The refinery processes 120,000 bbls of crude oil per day, which has a sulfur content of 2.5 percent. The refinery converts crude oil to naptha, light oil, and heavy oils using the Atmospheric/Vacuum Distillation Unit with key equipment such as the following:
•
naptha, kerosene, gasoline, and diesel hydrotreaters;
•
isomerization unit;
•
naptha reformer;
•
fluid catalytic cracker;
•
coker;
•
hydrocracker;
•
polymerization unit (petrochemical section of the refinery polymerizing olefin gases to produce polyethylene);
•
sulfur recovery Claus plant (catalytic reactors); and
•
distillate/gasoline blending tanks.
The refinery was initiating work on a major plant turnaround at the time of the incident to complete required maintenance repairs, mechanical integrity inspections, and modifications to existing equipment. Twenty contractor companies (approximately 150 employees) have been contracted to perform this work under the direction of refinery staff. All of the contractor workers completed the refinery orientation training.
Work for the contractor crews is assigned/scheduled each morning. On the day of the incident, the day-shift (6 am to 6 pm) crew had been tasked with isolating the acid gas feed stream for the Claus unit. Due to other work priorities, the crew did not isolate the line as planned. A shift turnover for the night contractor crew did not happen due to mandatory safety training that delayed their arrival at the worksite. Upon their arrival at the work site, the night crew held a job safety analysis (JSA) review of the scheduled task (line breaking of the acid gas feed line to replace a segment) to be performed and the hazards present. No pressure gauges or monitoring was present to indicate that the acid gas feed line was operational. The crew initiated the line breaking activity (open the line to the atmosphere) at approximately 7:45 pm under self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), which almost immediately resulted in the uncontrolled release of acid gas. A nearby ignition source from a welding operation ignited the flammable gas. The following actions were initially taken:
•
The evacuation alarm was sounded and the refinery emergency response team (ERT) was activated.
•
The plant manager and the local fire department were notified of the incident.
•
The incident command was established at the refinery office near the main refinery access gate to the south (this is the furthest distance within the refinery boundary from the incident location).
•
The refin ...
When an accident occurs, investigators must determine if a third party, such as a product designer or contractor, may be held liable due to a safety related oversight. This slideshow gives an overview of several real-world investigations and helps viewers evaluate the case for subrogation in each incident.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

• According to OSHA records, it was
first shift workers acting under
supervision, who loaded the fateful
batch of carbon and graphite parts,
coated in a highly flammable
alcohol and iodine solution.

57. Propane Storage
• NFPA 58
• The storage of propane in buildings
is limited:
• Buildings frequented by the public
are limited to cylinders with a
propane capacity of 1 pound.
• The total quantity stored is limited
to 200 pounds of propane.
• Buildings not frequented by the
public are limited to a maximum
quantity of 300 pounds of
propane.
• The cylinder size is not restricted.
59. Paint Spray Booths
• A spray application
is also particularly
hazardous because
it creates fine
droplets of the
fluid, making the
fluid more ignitable
than when it is
applied with a
brush.
60. Effect of Lighting………
• Proper lighting (bright &
fluorescent) along with
light color painted walls
in the Spray Paint room
so that
workers/students can
see better when spray
painting.
61. Selection of Respirators
Employer must select and provide an
appropriate respirator based on the respiratory
hazards to which the worker is exposed and the
factors that affect respirator performance and
reliability.
62. A pressure gauge that indicates airflow outside the booth
will make it easier for instructors to determine when to
replace the booths air filters.
63. CLEAN FILTERS
• Replacing clogged air filters
keeps the paint booth’s
ventilation system working
efficiently to remove paint and
solvent mists, protecting the
painter and others from
overexposure to potentially
hazardous substances and
decreasing the risk of fire due to
flammable vapors.
64. FOLLOW GOOD HOUSEKEEPING
• Combustible
cardboard boxes
should not be
stored in the
booth and filters
are not stored
properly.
65. STORED CHEMICALS
• Store only the required
amount(s) of flammable liquid
for one classes usage at the
spraying area.
67. CHECK POINTS
• Are fire extinguishers installed near
all spraying areas? Ref:
1910.107(f)(4)
68. CHECK POINTS
• Are No smoking signs
conspicuously posted. Ref:
1910.107(g)(7)
69. CHECK POINTS
• Is all residue, scrapings, and debris
contaminated with residue
immediately removed from the
premises and properly disposed of?
Ref:1910.107(g)(3)
70. CHECK POINTS
• Are automatic sprinkler heads
located so as to provide water
distribution throughout the spray
booth? Ref: 1910.107(f)(1)
71. CHECK POINTS
• Is the electrical equipment in an
electrostatic hand spraying area
interlocked with the ventilation
system so that it cannot be turned
on unless the ventilation fans are
operating? Ref: 1910.107(I)(8)
72. CHECK POINTS
• Are approved metal waste cans
provided whenever rags or waste
are impregnated with finishing
material and are rags and waste
deposit in them immediately after
use? Ref:1910.107(g)(3)
73. CHECK POINTS
• Does the quantity of flammable or
combustible liquids that are kept in
the vicinity of spraying operations
exceed a supply needed for one
shift? Ref: 1910.107(e)(2)
74. CHECK POINTS
• Is a visible gauge, audible alarm, or
pressure-activated device installed
to ensure that the required air
velocity is maintained?
Ref:1910.107(b)(5)(i)
75. CHECK POINTS
• Are only fixed lighting units used as
a source of illumination? Ref:
1910.107(b)(10)
76. AVOIDANCE OF AIRBORNE
CONTAMINENTS
A properly working
ventilation system will
allow the avoidance of
time it takes to put on the
full body protection &
respirators. Ventilation
will prevent skin
absorption of hazardous
substances and inhalation
of fumes, mists or vapors
from paints or solvents.
81. Detached Unprotected Buildings
• 1000 ft. separation
from most
occupancies. (Except
business, industrial,
mercantile, and
storage.)
• Want to avoid
assembly and health
care being too close.
82. Outdoor Storage
• Kept free of weeds,
debris and other
combustible material
within 10 feet
