Procedures-writing team

If the procedures-writing team wishes to make a significant change to the way the project is being handled, such a change will have to be approved by the steering committee. 

F Operators are part of the procedure-writing team and all operators are fully trained with new procedures and given the opportunity to provide feedback on the procedures before they are approved and made formal It is recognized that operator involvement will increase ownership and reflect working practice. This will encourage active use and operator-generated updates ... 

Once the first edition of the operating manual has been published, the team that executed the project will probably be disbanded. Control of the manual passes from the writing team to the operations and maintenance departments. It is important to have a proper handover for two reasons. First, handover represents a formal and even legal transition—the writers are saying that the procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, accurate, and complete, and the operations department is saying that they are satisfied with the product that they have been given. 

Step 6 Write the Component Material Balances. The Phase II auditing steps define the pollutants and wastes that are among the team s focus. Its objective has always been to identify specific wastes or pollutants that the enterprise can reduce these are the components the team needs to assess in the material balances. It is important to note that once the material balance for each unit operation has been completed for raw-material inputs and waste outputs, it is necessary to repeat the procedure for each contaminant of concern. 

Preparation of Equipment for Maintenance The essential feature of this procedure is a permit-to-work system The operating team members prepare the equipment and write down on the permit the work to be done, the preparation carried out, the remaining hazards, and the precautions necessary. The permit is then accepted by the person or group who will carry out the work and is returned when the work is complete. The permit system will not make maintenance 100 percent safe, but it reduces the chance that hazards will be overlooked, lists ways of controlling them, and informs those doing the job what precautions they should take. The... 

Creativity and innovation carry with them the need for the individual to be able to communicate their new ideas to others. Presenting their ideas fluently, both verbally and/or in writing, to other members of project teams during the innovation process is essential if they are to be acted upon. Conversely the individual must be able to listen to other people, understanding and responding to their feelings, needs and concerns about new ideas and changes of procedures. 

The unit plan must be formal and in writing. Because the emergency procedures of each individual operating area or work unit form the foundation of the facility ERP, they should be reviewed by the Emergency Preparedness Team for completeness and consistency across the site before they are included in the facility ERP. 

Coordination procedure. This shows, in writing, the responsibilities and authorities of each of the integrated team members. A sample of one of these appears in Appendix C. 

The creation of the study protocol is a multidisciplinary and collaborative effort. Every aspect of the protocol impacts all other aspects. A medical procedure may impact the response of subjects to treatment, their compliance or other important aspect that ultimately will impact the data and the conclusions that can be drawn from them. For this reason, every member of the study design team must assume responsibility for the entire protocol. The statistician may be responsible directly for writing the statistical design considerations and the analysis plan, yet his or her involvement in all other aspects of the design that feed into it are equally important. 

Human resources. The people familiar with the day-to-day operation of the process are valuable sources of information. They can provide the operational or maintenance information that makes your procedures unique and accurate. Even if you are writing procedures for a brand-new process, you can build a team that can provide input from their e q>erience in working with similar processes. 

For example, they may ask an engineer or supervisor to work on the procedures in your spare time. Such an approach is virtually certain to fail. It is vital that the writing and maintenance of procedures be treated as a full-fledged project that is assigned a budget, a schedule, and a properly qualified team. 

Additionally process safety requires teams. Teams are often brought together to perform PHAs or hazard identifications, PSSRs, or to review MOC plans. Teams are sometimes used to write and/or review operating procedures. Teams facilitate bringing together the SMEs assigned to a task. Here SMEs can interact to be sure all aspects of the task are addressed. Further peer review teams may be used to ensure that nothing important is overlooked, misinterpreted, or miscalculated. These team activities are consistent with a matrix structure. 

The class lab experiment is the traditional lab assigned by faculty in which students collect and reduce data. They then write reports on the procedure. These labs are usually conducted in teams of two to four smdents and require bench set-ups or larger fixed installations. 

Those procedures for which all answers are no can be screened out of the review. However, these criteria will generally screen out only a limited number of procedures. If the remaining list of procedures is still beyond the capability of the review team during the available period, then an additional criterion is to look at similar procedures. It often happens that procedures or their selected parts are similar in their writing and content (sequences of identical steps) or strategy. An example is the back end of procedures dealing with plant cooldown and depressurization. For these, the review may look at one representative procedure or part of one to have a complete view. 

Process Technology 3—Operations—combines process systems into operational processes with emphasis on operations under various conditions. Topics include typical duties of an operator. Instruction focuses on the principles of modem manufacturing technology and process equipment. Emphasizes scale-up from laboratory bench to pilot unit. Describe unit operation concepts solve elementary chemical mass/energy balance problems interpret analytical data and apply distillation and fluid flow principles. The purpose of this class is to provide adult learners with the opportunity to work in a self-directed work team, operate a complex operational system, collect and analyze data, start and stop process equipment, follow and write operational procedures. The course is advanced and requires the learner to apply classroom skills to real-life operational activities. Students are required to qualify and operate a process unit. 

Requests from the inspection team for the inspected State Party during the inspection to provide equipment mentioned in paragraph 3 above, shall be made in writing by an authorised member of the inspection team using the form eontained in Attachment 5. The same procedure will also apply to other requests of the inspection team in accordance with paragraph 30 of Part II of the Verification Annex. 

The list of facility equipment to be provided as a matter of routine by the inspected State Party for use by the inspection team, or to be operated by the inspected State Party under the supervision of the inspection team is hsted in Part B of Attachment 7 to this Agreement, with notation of the nature of and procedures for its operation and necessary support. Prior to any use of such equipment the inspection team may confirm that the equipment meets the technical requirements necessary to support the inspection task intended to be accomplished. With respect to personal protective equipment, the requirements specified in the OPC W Health and Safety Policy and Regulations apply. With respect to the use of equipment available on-site other than the equipment listed in Part B of Attachment 7, requests made by the inspection team in accordance with paragraph 30 of Part II of the Verification Annex shall be made in writing.
