(54c) Including Process Safety in Planning and Response Preparation for a High Water Event
This presentation presents the process used to incorporate Process Safety into an existing chemical plant's plan for response to high hazard weather events, specifically a high water event. The process is presented in the following steps:
- the identification and validation of existing threats and associated data
- the identification of vulnerable assets, processes and their associated failure consequences
- the identification of preventive and mitigative actions and their effective timing
- a hazard assessment of proposed preventive and mitigative actions
- the inclusion of proposed actions into existing response plans
