Procedures criteria

Accountability and transparency have several aspects reporting to and control by supervisory bodies clarity and openness of procedures criteria for decision-making and decisions made and existence of systems for complaint and appeal. Accountability and transparency can be evaluated by examining, in particular reporting requirements, external reviews of the authority s performance frequency of publications and content of website (and other means of communication between the DRA, the public and the regulated parties) bodies to which complaints are directed and appeals procedures. However, the individual details of these elements of regulation make quantitative comparison difficult. 

For confirmatory methods, the confirmatory procedure criteria described previously should be met. All negative control samples should fail to meet the confirmation standard established in the procedure. All samples fortified at or above the tolerance and all incurred residue samples at or above the tolerance should meet the confirmation standard (to confirm) described in the SOP. It has been argued that it is not necessary for incurred samples containing the marker residue at a concentration below the tolerance to meet established confirmatory criteria. However, failure to confirm the marker residue in these samples may indicate a lack of robusmess of the procedure. Any procedure that had this problem would be closely examined to ensure that the method would meet the needs of the Agency. 

Immersion Toxicity Assay Procedure, Criteria of Response and Data Analysis. The assay procedure was a modification of published methods (4, 5). Toxicity assays were conducted at 21 4 2°C in narrow-mouth, quart (0.95 L) glass jars containing conditioned Columbus tap water (pH 7.5 to 8.5, aged 24 hr). No food, substrate, or aeration were used during the test. Cannibalism did not occur with well-fed larvae and short term (24 hr) assays.

Chapter 5 provides a starting point for developing a Hst of elements for writing effective procedures to meet yom facUit/s needs. Due to your operations, maintenance, and regulatory concerns, you may want to add facihty-specific procedure criteria to this hst or delete criteria not applicable to your situation.

Procedures for performing valid fracture tests on polymers have been published [23] and besides containing details of specific fracture testing methods and procedures, criteria for the validity of the linear elastic assumption also are given. Some of the more common test geometries are shown in Figure 19.4. 

Similarity of cues. It relates to how similar the cues for carrying out the first action are to those for the second action if additional cues, such as new alarms or different procedural criteria are available, then the level of dependence between the two actions decreases. 

Procedures criteria Were the requirements and criteria for developing operating, maintenance, and other procedures clearly defined and adequate ... 

Many of the material specifications reference test methods. Rather than include the actual test method with the publication of the specification, the IPC posts them on its web site, where they can be easily accessed and kept current without extensive revision of the various reference standards. This prevents possible conflict with outdated procedures. Criteria for the acceptance levels, however, are provided by reference standards such as J-STD-001, J-STD-004, and so on. 

The H2S breakthrough should coincide with the completion of the tenperature wave front in the reactor. If abnormalities are observed, checks should be made to ascertain that the minimum flow rates to assure good distribution within the bed were in use during the presulfiding procedure. Criteria for these will be discussed below. 

Develop processes, procedures, criteria, requirements, and methods to attain the best possible management of the hazards and exposures that can cause injury to people and/or damage property or the environment.
