l Describe the roles and responsibilities of personnel involved in the immediate on site response to the Emergency e.g. Site evacuation, Search and Rescue, Fire Fighting and Spill Response. The function of the Phase 1 response is to bring the Emergency under control as quickly as possible thereby preventing any escalation of the situation.

Site personnel are notified of an Emergency situation by the activation of the evacuation alarm, which is recognised as a loud continuous siren. The alarm can be raised automatically by Fire Detection Systems or manually through the activation of a break glass unit. Once an alarm is activated, all personnel must make there work areas safe and move directly to their nominated Assembly Points. Those personnel with specific duties in the Phase I response must move directly to their nominated positions as defined within the Emergency Plan. The details of specific personnel actions are outlined below:

Note 1: In the event of a Major Emergency situation in Bay 130 the Emergency Services

should be immediately called out as the ERT does not have capabilities to respond to an

Emergency situation in Bay 130. The on duty Incident Controller should Liase with the

Emergency Services and initiate a Phase II response if required.

4.2 Environmental Monitoring

Safeguarding the Environment is second only to Safety of Personnel in the event of an emergency situation. Environmental monitoring during an emergency situation will be necessary, both on- and off site, to determine the extent and possible consequences of emissions to Health & Safety and the Environment. Environmental monitoring which will be required for emergency situations include:

o Contaminated firewater from fire fighting and vessel cooling to prevent surface ground and soil contamination.

l Surface water if necessary to prevent contamination of surface water drains and culvert. l Ground water if necessary. l Air Monitoring of vessel releases (gases & vapours), reactor contents from fire or explosion, or side products’fi-om combustion of construction materials

3. Seek advice where necessary on the selection of the PPE and extreme caution at all times when monitoring hazardous emissions under emergency conditions.

4. Depending on the nature of the release and the receiving media be it Air, Water or Soil. set up the necessary monitoring to assess the quantities and extent of the emissions as outlined below:

4.2.1.1 AIR MONITORING

1. Establish the Wind Speed and Direction and any other relevant weather conditions.

2. Obtain such weather data from weather station, wind sock or Me? Eireann website or by telephone.

3.

9.

Immediately set up sampling points downwind of the release source in order to accurately assess the situation.

Continuously monitor the Wind speed and direction in case of change and adjust the number and location of sampling points as necessary.

For odour monitoring the sense of smell is the best available indicator, while for air monitoring a list of the specific equipment exists. (See 4.2.1.5)

Consult available Consequence Models as necessary to assess the potential effects of specific incidents. (See Attachment III of the Emergency Manual)

Carry out Air Monitoring in accordance with the standard methods in use. Specific information relating to the nature of the release should be obtained from either the Plant Incident Controller, BPC Personnel, or other relevant personnel.

Monitor air in suitable locations, around the release and at the perimeter of the facility. Exercise due caution when monitoring any releases or spills.

Monitor air off-site if necessary. The off-site monitoring locations will vary to take into account the direction and speed of the prevailing wind at the time of the release.

10. Air monitoring shall be completed to ensure the area has been made safe to work in before personnel can re-enter the building or the area around the release.

2. If the WWTP cannot cope with the volumes of Firewater being generated Shannon Development should be contacted regarding the release of excess volume to sewer.

3. If a volume of Chemicals have been lost to drain the lift pumps in the Old WWTP should be switched off to retain the material in the tank. The effluent should be sampled to assess its components and subsequent action regarding its transfer should be agreed.

4.2.1.3 SURFACE WATER MONITORING.

1. Carry out surface water monitoring to check for contamination at the relevant surface water drains in the event of a liquid spill/release. Use spill control equipment where appropriate if it is available.

4.2.1.4 GROUND WATER MONITORING

. jrf there is potential for Groundwater contamination it will be necessary to sample ground water points to assess the level contamination. This is not an immediate priority in an emergency situation.

4.2.1.5 MONITORING EQUIPMENT.

1. An emergency stock of air sampling equipment will be kept in the ERT Station, and the relevant tubes for the specific release should be used. Regular checks are carried out to ensure that all monitoring equipment is calibrated and recharged if necessary.

2.2.3 Details of ERT Membership and leadership may be found on the N Drive under Safety System / ERT/ Membership and Leadership.

2.2.4 Given the cross-departmental nature of the ERT there are no specific teams and in the event of an emergency teams are composed of the members on site at that time.

2.3 ERT Membership Duties

It is the duty each ERT members to 0 Ensure his/her attendance of scheduled training. . Ensure that the Safety & Environment Officer (Systems) is notified if they are

unable to attend training due to unforeseen circumstances. . Ensure completion of all ERT Training requirements as required. . Ensure the completion of training forms where necessary. 0 Ensure that his/her gear is maintained in a state of preparedness. . Ensure immediate response to all emergency calls.

. l Follow instructions as given to him/her by the ERT Leader. . Submit overtime forms where necessary. . Submit expense forms where necessary. . Ensure the collection and wearing of the available pagers on arrival on site

and the immediate response to their activation should the need arise. The duties and competencies of all ERT Members are outlined in Attachment I.

2.4 ERT Leader Duties

Excluding the normal ERT member duties it is the ERT Leaders duty, and in his absence the Deputy ERT Leaders duty to ensure that:

I l The ERT are effectively co-ordinated during an Emergency Response. l Emergency situations are carefully evaluated before actions are taken and

personnel are not put into situations of unnecessary risk. l The emergency services are called outside normal working hours if it is considered that

scale of the incident and the number of ERT personnel available is insufficient to allow a safe and appropriate response.

2.2 SAFETY REGULATIONS

2.2.1 Eating and Drinking. This is pennitted only in the canteen.

2.2.2 Smoking Smoking is permitted only in the canteen. Smoking is strictly forbidden in all outdoor areas. Smoking material must be extinguished before coming on site.

2.2.3 Hot Work Permits Work is any work that may produce heat or a source of ignition (sparks) e.g. drilling, grinding, welding, soldering etc.

Hot Work Permit is required for any hot work to be done outside the engineering building, canteen and office building.

A Hot Work Permit is a form which is completed by the Facilitator of an area in order to lay down the conditions necessary for safe working in an area of fire risk. It consists of a series of checks which must be signed by the Supervisor. Such checks include for example ensuring movable containers of flammable materials are 1 Om away, fixed storage tanks are under vacuum or sealed, checking the area with a solvent meter and having a fire extinguisher present.

Confined Entry Permits:

A confined space is any vessel, reactor, drier, container, tank, manhole etc., where there is partial natural ventilation. Again, this permit is issued by the facilitator.

TITLE: RESPONSE TO TOC ALARM ACTIVATION

SOP . 602.077

’ Effective Date: Revision No: 1 Prev Rev No: 0

Date: 14.01.02 Dated: 14.07.99

1.0 PURPOSE To define the method by which a response is made to the activation of the T.0.C alarm.

2.0 PROCEDURE NOTE : The T.O.C. unit measures the Total Organic Carbon content of nonprocess water before going off site to the culvert. The instrument in located at the Surface Water drain SW-07 (see Attachment I drawing). The purpose of the instrument is to monitor the T.O.C. levels and activate an alarm system if agreed levels are exceeded

i.1 Alarm settings.

2.1.1 The alarm will only activate when the T.O.C. rises to a level of I30 ppm or greater (Warning Level) and will switch off once readings return below this value.

2.1.2 If the T.O.C. levels rise to 160 ppm (Action Level) the audible alarm continues to ring and a second non audible alarm activates a diversion valve which diverts the Surface Water to a process line which enters the effluent at ES0 1 (see Attachment II drawing M 10-004- 061/2). This will continue to happen until T.O.C. readings drop below 160 ppm whereby the Surface Water will be re-diverted to the culvert.

2.2 Alarm Activation. 2.2.1 Work Hours Response

2.2.1.1 Upon T.O.C. alarm activation, the Team Leader, Technical Operator or designate should contact an Environmental Technologist or member of the environmental department if on-site to investigate the cause or if not should investigate the cause of the alann themselves. The alarm can be silenced temporarily while the incident is being investigated by depressing the alarm reset button inside the T.0.c’. hut. It this hut is locked a key may be obtained from Security.

2.2.1.2 The investigation should consist of checks on areas where containers are stored and being filled and emptied in the first instance.

2.2.1.3 Sampling and inspection of Surface Water monitoring points should take place according to monitoring points listed in Attachment I or any updated subsequent version.

2.2.1.4 If a source for the alarm activation is found then this source must be immediately confined and a clean up commenced.

2.2.1.5 Details of the incident must be recorded on an Accident / Incident record sheet and sent to the Safety & Environment Manager for fixther investigation.

2.2.2 After Work Hours Response.

2.2.2.1 Following alarm’activation, a BPC Operator should source the cause of the Surface Water contamination. The alarm can be siIenced temporarily while the incident is being investigated by pressing the alann reset button inside the T.O.C. hut. If this hut is locked a key may be obtained from Security.

2.2.2.2 Areas where contaminants could enter the surface water drains should be inspected e.g. the hard stand area at BPC, leaks fi-om containers beside drains, cleaning of used production equipment. The drains should be inspected for odours or visible contamination. Should contamination be found, the drain should be sampled and held for assessment by the Environmental Technologist.

2.2.2.3 On finding the source of the alarm, the leak, if any, should be stopped and the ground washed thoroughly. The contaminants should be flushed through the drains as quickly as possible using water. The alarm should deactivate once the contaminant levels in the surface water drop below 130ppm. This reading can be obtained fi-om the LCD panel inside the TOC hut.

2.2.2.4 Should the alarm remain activated continuously fqr longer than 30 minutes after flushing is complete, an Environmental Technologist or member of the S & E Department should be contacted. It may be necessary to inspect the TOC system for possible system problems and to continue assessment of contaminant entry into the drain systems. The numbers can be obtained from the Emergency Contact Telephone Numbers list (Q/S&E/SOPS/FORMS/60 1.002-AK1 emergency contact telephone numbers.doc).

Revision No: 1 Date: 14.01.02 Prev Rev No: 0 Da ted: 1407.99

2.2.1.5 Details of the incident must be recorded on an Accident / Incident record sheet and sent to the Safety & Environment Manager for further investigation.

2.3 Valve Controls.

In response to a T.O.C. value of 160 ppm or greater being reached, the surface water will be diverted from the culvert drain to the effluent drain. This is achieved through a series of valves which respond to a signal from the C.P.U. In order to ensure that the valves are working correctly the valve system should be checked twice a year. This should be conducted by holding down the alarm reset/ spike test button on the main control unit in the T.O.C. hut which will trigger the valve system into a non-audible alarm. This will close the valve to the culvert drain and open the valve on a process line diverting the surface water to the effluent. After the valve on the culvert drain has fLllly closed, the button should be released to ensure that the valves revert to normal. Details of this check should be kept with the Laboratory Equipment record.

PURPOSE:

To outline the procedures necessary for effective isolation of equipment.

PROCEDURE

2.1

2.2

2.3

2.4

2.5

2.6

Isolation is achieved by switching off / disconnecting the motive force (electricity compressed air, hydraulic fluid, etc.)

Each craftsperson has his own lock, to which there is only one key.

At the point of isolation, a padlock is to be fitted by each craftsperson performing work.

Most isolators have facility ‘for locking by 3 padlocks. Otherwise, a %ulticlasp” must be used to enable multiple padlocks to be fitted.

A tag indicating the name of craftsperson working on the equipment must also be attached. Where more than one trade is involved additional tags must be attached.

Removal of tags / padlocks may only be authorised by the person who originally attached them. Any other person removing safety isolation devices without authorisation, will be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal.

2.2.1 The evaluation of Process Hazards is concerned with identifying the Process Safety hazards associated with the storage, manufacture and handling of raw materials, intermediates and waste streams on site. The components elements of a Process Hazard Evaluation are outlined in Figure 2 and the detail of each element is outlined in the associated SOPs.(See Note 1 above)

2.2.1 The evaluation of any process is initiated through the Change Control Process and it is the responsibility of the Safety and Environment Manager to ensure that the necessary studies are completed in order to fully assess the implications of a change from a Process Safety viewpoint, thereby ensuring that in as much as is practicable that the introduction or modification of a process does not compromise the safety of the facility.

2.2.2 The methodology as outlined in Figure 2 is systematic in nature however some iteration does exist between stages.
