47 Process Safety Management (PSM)

48 Confidential © Ferrellgas, L.P. What is PSM? Developed by the chemical and petroleum industries to bring together traditional system safety concepts and management of operations to ensure that the safety programs for highly hazardous materials take into account: What can go wrong? What can we do to minimize the likelihood of a release? What can we do to maximize the defenses, if a release does occur? Other state regulations may also apply Federal OSHA standard 29 CFR Part “Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals”

49 Elements of the Regulation The PSM Regulation is divided into the following elements: Employee Participation Process Safety Information (PSI) Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s) Training Contractors Pre Startup Safety Review (PSSR) Mechanical Integrity (MI) Hot Work Permits Management of Change (MOC) Incident Investigations Emergency Action Plan (EAP Program Compliance Audits Confidential © Ferrellgas, L.P.

50 Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's) A set of written operating procedures have been developed to provide clear instructions on how to conduct various tasks involving the propane – and other – systems. These procedures cover normal operation, emergency or temporary operation, shutdown, operating limits, consequences of deviation, hazards, and safety measures. Operating Procedures are stored in PSM Binder 2 (and posted at workstations) and are separated into these categories: ADM – Administrative POL – Policy OPR – Operating MNT – Maintenance ISU – Initial Start Up You will be mostly involved with the Operating Procedures for the jobs that you perform here at the plant.
