This year @ Kansas City Jo Beth Cholmondeley of OSHA gave us the region update and an emphasis on RAGAGEP. RAGAGEP has been a large part of OSHA inspections the last two years. Click here to download the presentation
RAGAGEP in Process Safety Management Enforcement
This enforcement policy addresses the Process Safety Management (PSM) Standard’s recognized and generally accepted good engineering practices (RAGAGEP) requirements. Enforcement activity, including the Petroleum Refinery Process Safety Management National Emphasis Program (Refinery NEP), and requests for assistance from the field, revealed the need for this guidance. This memorandum rescinds and replaces the memorandum of the same title dated June 5, 2015. It is intended to be a clarification of the policy described in the earlier memorandum and does not reflect any substantive change in OSHA enforcement policy.
