To ensure proper drainage, inspection personnel must examine overhead piping for proper pitch. Sprinkler systems are designed to drain back to the sprinkler riser, where a 2 in (5.1 cm) valve drain outlet is provided. When this is not possible and some piping is trapped, supplementary low point drain valves should be provided. Low-point drains should be shown on the system drawings. 

STOP is used by Federal Meat inspection personnel in-plant to check tissues from slaughtered animals for antibiotic residues. 

Leaks occurring at several points in the three access ways were a continual annoyance to maintenance and inspection personnel. They were found mainly along construction joints in the concrete structure and to a lesser extent in honeycombed areas in the concrete. Water at 35°F flowed from these points in well-defined streams, in some cases at 2 to 3 gpm. 

The revised draft requirements for GMP are presented in three parts. Part One, "Quality management in the drug industry philosophy and essential elements", outlines the general concepts of quality assurance as well as the principal components or subsystems of GMP, which are joint responsibilities of the top management and of production and quality control management. These include hygiene, validation, self-inspection, personnel, premises, equipment, materials, and documentation. 

The main advantage of announced inspections is that the regulatory inspector is able to discuss plans and needs with the operator s personnel in advance in order to secure assurances that documentation will be available for inspection, personnel will be available for interview and activities can be inspected as scheduled. Hence, the announcement of inspections may enhance their effectiveness. The advantage of unannounced inspections is that the actual state of the facility and the way in which it is being operated can be observed. Inspections may be carried out at any time of the day or night so as to provide a more complete picture of the situation at the facility. 

The regulatory body should have the capability to undertake inspection activities at any time as necessitated by the normal operation of a facility or by any fault conditions or operator activities at a facility. For verification of the overall performance of the operator, inspections of adequate depth should be conducted in a wide range of subject areas and at appropriate intervals. Each planned inspection should have objectives which have previously been specified by the regulatory body to serve to the extent practicable as guidance for inspection personnel. 

Before an inspection is carried out, the inspection personnel should be thoroughly prepared for the task. The type of preparation will depend on the type and method of inspection. Preparation may include a review of the following ... 

A. 11. In the regulatory inspection programme, close attention should be paid to operator activities relating to the preparation for and actual introduction of fissile and radioactive material. Regulatory inspection personnel should be present at the facility site to observe some of these activities directly. 

A. 14. Regulatory inspection personnel shall examine and assess the safety aspects of a sample of the operator s procedures for conducting operational tests. In addition, as the tests are completed, a sample of the test documentation and the results of the inspection should be examined by regulatory personnel to verify that the tests have been completed in accordance with the test instructions and that the results are acceptable. Regulatory inspection should also include the monitoring and direct observation of several tests. 

A.26. Records of occupational radiation doses. Inspection personnel should selectively review records of individual occupational doses, including internal and external doses. Activities should be observed to ensure that procedural and management controls are effective. This includes controls for radiation areas and contamination areas as well as inspection of activities for internal and external dosimetry. Exposures of personnel that result in the operator s reference levels for effective doses or intakes being exceeded should be noted. Records of radiation protection training and retraining should be assessed. 

A.39. Inspection of the area of security should include a review of all activities relating to access control, the physical protection of equipment in safety related areas and fitness for duty programmes, as applicable. Inspection personnel shonld routinely monitor the controls on access to the facility. The effects of the hardware for physical protection on accessibility and the ability of the operator to operate the facility safely should be routinely assessed. Inspection personnel should also review the fitness for duty programme and assess its effectiveness. 

Regular testing and maintenance of aU pressure vessels and pipelines, fuel storages and gas pipes, electrical overhead travelling (EOT) cranes, hoists and chain pulley blocks, fire fighting equipments, provision of gas detectors for inflammable, and toxic gases are to be carried out as per instructions issued by statutory authorities and inspection personnel deputed by insurance companies. 

Effective training of machine operators, operator assistants, inspection personnel, and safety professionals is one of the keys to prevention of injury and death. It is often determined that injuries have resulted from the operators or associated personnel being unaware of the hazards associated with machine operations. Inexperienced, untrained workers have no way of knowing how to protect themselves with safeguarding methods and have no knowledge of how to deal with machine or cycle malfunctions. 

Visual inspection is a process that requires high concentration of the inspector. In hospital pharmacies the inspection period is limited, e.g. to 30 min followed by a minimum 15 min break between two periods. Inspection personnel should be appropriately trained and have their competency assessed. Candidates are given a set of characterised containers bearing container closure defects and particulate matter and must be able to identify the contaminated products.

Tank repair is a specialised activity, and should be performed only by those competent in tank design, reconstruction and repair works. Non-destructive testing should be carried out by personnel qualified to TWI s Certification Scheme for Welding and Inspection Personnel or Personnel Certificate of Non-Destructive Testing, or equivalent. 

The inspection team leader is responsible for the health and safety of inspection personnel while engaged in an inspection. The team leader shall be assisted and advised by appropriately qualified health and safety personnel, as required, to ensure that all OPCW Health and Safety Poliey and Regulations are properly implemented in the light of prevailing eonditions in order to minimise health and safety risks. All inspection team persoimel must be fuUy eonversant with aU OPCW health and safety requirements. The inspection teams will be provided with safety and medical staff as appropriate. 

The most widely used workmanship standard, IPC-A-610, has been rewritten to accommodate the inspection of Pb-free soldered assemblies. The changes were introduced with version D of that document. Inspection personnel require retraining to give proper attention to the... 

Consider rotating inspection personnel on a regular basis. Those who work in or supervise a particular area can start not seeing things that they get used to seeing every day. Remember, new eyes see different things. 

Issues such as reducing major disparities in the occupational doses received by workers of different types who work within the controlled area and avoiding arduous working conditions in radiation areas (social factors) should be taken into account in the design. The types of worker who could potentially receive the highest doses include maintenance and inspection personnel and health physics staff... 

The maintenance programme and operational tasks should be defined, preferably on the basis of well established concepts. The number of staff for each task should be based only on the operational requirements and should not be artificially increased to comply with the regulatory requirements or the dose constraints. For tasks for which doses are predicted to be relatively minor, the work can be expressed generically in terms of the number of person-hours that will be spent in each radiation zone. The type of worker who will perform each task is also identified. Types of worker include maintenance personnel, in-service inspection personnel, electrical staff, support staff (e.g. scaffolders), decontamination staff and health physics staff. 

Dollar values for each consequence were determined in agreement with operations, engineering, and inspection personnel based on costs of past failures and loss of production. The results of the risk assessment were then used to identify which equipment and piping were to be replaced during the next refinery FCCU turnaround. 

The score received under the CSMS will be issued based on the gravity of the offense, how long ago it occurred, and as compared to its peers. The scores are updated every 30 days. Safety history will be calculated into the formula for two years. The driver data will still be included in the carrier s history even if the driver is no longer employed with the motor carrier. This information is used in both the Safety Measurement System and Inspection Selection System (ISS). The ISS is used by roadside inspection personnel when making a determination on whether or not to inspect a motor carrier.
