Designated storage areas

Storage within a specially designed building or in a specially designed storage area within a building... 

The standard requires the supplier to use designated storage areas or stock rooms to prevent damage or deterioration of product, pending use or delivery. 

The standard requires you to designate storage areas. This means that any area where product is stored should have been designated for that purpose in order that the necessary controls can be employed. If you store product in undesignated areas then there is a chance that the necessary controls will not be applied. 

The purchase price of some instruments may include set-up and check-out by a manufacturer s representative. In such cases, the laboratory operator should only check for physical condition of a shipment and call the representative about its arrival. Other equipment will generally be set up at its permanent location as soon as it is unpacked and checked. Supplies will be taken to their designated storage areas. The accompanying warranty cards should be filled out and mailed as soon as possible. 

After each lab session, return reagents and equipment to the designated storage areas. 

The released material then to be stored in its designated storage area. 

Potentially hazardous wastes remaining after treatment (i.e. contaminated electrodes) must be labeled as hazardous waste and must be stored in containers that are in good condition. Containers should be stored in a designated storage area. Storage should not exceed 90 days unless a permit is obtained. 

Other robots are used to store or retrieve materials and parts from designated storage areas (Figure 17-15). Racks or shelves can store hundreds or thousands of bins that can be stacked several stories high. Each bin is numbered, and its location is programmed into a robot s memory. When orders to place or retrieve parts are received, the robot can quickly find the right bin. 

Have only books and other materials that are needed to conduct the activity in the lab. Keep backpacks, purses, and other items in your desk, locker, or other designated storage areas. 

Store materials in workrooms or designated storage areas only. Do not use hallways, fan lofts, or boiler and equipment rooms as storage areas. 

Empty cylinders must to be treated as full, except in designated storage areas where they should be segregated. Storage areas must be marked with appropriate safety signs and warnings. Direct heat must not be applied to cylinders. 

According to a recent report [11], the nuclear power plant was the focus of the designers attention the standards used for the nuclear power plant were more stringent than those for the rest of the submarine. In the process industries utilities, storage areas and offplots often get less attention than the main units and are involved in disproportionately more incidents. 

Rational design must include the arrangement of processing areas, storage areas, and handling areas with regard to such factors as... 

Determine and designate an appropriate storage area for every material and every piece of equipment... 

Designate protected raw material and hazardous waste storage areas with spill containment. Keep the areas clean and organized and give one person the responsibility for maintaining the areas. 

Personnel areas Group units Locate personnel areas away from hazardous process and storage areas. Group units in rows. Design for safe operation and maintenance. Create islands of risk by concentrating hazardous process units in one area. Space units so hot work can be performed on one group while another is operating. 

The primary design consideration at any oil, gas or related facility should be the protection of employees and the general public from the effects of an explosion or fire. In all cases highly populated occupancies should be located as far as practical upwind of the process or storage areas. Where this cannot be practically... 

Most hydrocarbon facility process areas and high volume storage areas have standardized on a minimum supply or availability of four hours of firewater for the WCCE. The performance of risk analysis may reveal the level of fire water protection may be more or less than this requirement. Once a detailed design is completed on a facility or if a verification of existing water demands is needed, a simple tabular calculation of firewater requirements can be made. This table can be used to document spray density requirements, duration levels, code requirements and other features. Table 23 provides and example of arrangement to document such information.
