The persoimel at an industrial plant who me trained in tlie operation of die facility arc critical to proper emergency response. They must be taught to recognize abnormalities in operations mid to report tliem immediately. Plant operators should be taught how to respond to various types of accidents. Internal emergency squads also can be trained to contain the emergency until outside help arrives, or, if possible, to tenninate tlie emergency. It is especially important to train plant persomiel in shutdown and evacuation procedures.

Where PSM is being extended to cover additional functions at a plant with installed PSM systems, the extension can be done at minimum cost. In such cases several staff-months of effort should suffice. If you apply PSM to an activity or location without existing PSM programs, the effort is greater. For example, installation of PSM at a terminal operation would require adaptation of existing systems to the nature and scope of the terminal operation, training of personnel, and roll-out of programs. The effort per employee involved in this will be similar to the effort involved in each plant s PSM roll-out.

First, handling of highly concentrated acids, including hydrofluoric acid, especially at elevated temperatures, is very dangerous and requires use of special equipment and appropriate training of personnel. Second, the required amount of fluorine (or HF) is well above the amount needed based on the interaction stoichiometry. This results in large amounts of liquid waste, the treatment of which is very expensive. 

History. The US Army organization that formerly, for over 100 years, had responsibility for the design, manufacture and procurement from private industry of weapons, ammunition and vehicles, for the training of personnel in their use, and for their storage, issue and maintenance. The Ordnance Department also served both the Navy and Air Force as directed by higher authority...

Distributed data collection is very challenging. First, the appropriate hardware and software must be acquired by the central location. Separate licenses for required software are needed for each participating site. Each computer must be configured and tested. The system must be loaded on each computer before the initial training of personnel doing the data collection. Finally, the computer must be shipped to the participating sites. 

To simplify the training of personnel and the stocking of spare parts at each facility, extinguishers should be made by the same manufacturer. Recommended extinguisher types and sizes and their minimum UL classifications are given in Table 7-14, along with the five most common extinguisher types and sizes. 

Assurance could not be given for the scientific qualifications and adequate training of personnel involved in the research study. 

The GLP standards require that an adequate number of trained personnel are available for the study. T3q)ical anal5di-cal laboratories keep minimal records on the training of personnel, assuming that the quality control results in the individual tests speak for the capability of the analyst. Under GLP standards additional records must be kept and be available for audit. This includes at a minimum...

The process for setting up access to applications must be defined and executed by the appropriate, application specific, security administration personnel. The technical preparation, education and training for personnel performing administration tasks is fundamental. The determination of what is required and the documented evidence of the technical preparation, education and training of personnel is a key regulatory requirement (Part 11.10(i)).
