Introduction
The Board of Supervisors passed the Industrial Safety Ordinance because of concerns of
the accidents that have occurred at the oil refineries and chemical plants In Contra Costa
County. The effective date of the Industrial Safety Ordinance was January 15, 1999. The
ordinance applies to aril refineries or chemical plants with specified NAISC codes, that
were rewired to submit a Risk Management flan to the U.S. EPA and are a program
level 3 regulated stationary source as defined by the California. Accidental Release
Prevention (CalARP)Program. The ordinance specifies the following:
* Regulated stationary sources had one year to comply with the requirements of the
ordinance and submit a safety Plan to Contra Costa Health Services, except the
Human Factors,portion(January 15, 2000)
® Contra Costa Health Services develop a Human Factors guidance Document
* Regulated Stationary sources have one year to comply with the requirements of the
Human Factor guidance Document that was developed by Contra Costa Health
Services (January 15, 2001)
* For major chemical accidents or releases the regulated stationary sources are
required to perform a root cause analysis as part of their incident investigations
* Contra Costa Health Services may perform it's own incident investigation with a
root cause analysis
* All of the processes at the regulated stationary source would be covered as program
level 3 processes as defined by the California Accidental Release Prevention
Program
* The regulated stationary sources are required to consider Inherently safer Systems
for new processes or facilities or for mitigations resulting from a,process hazard
analysis
* Contra Costa Health Services will review all of the submitted Safety Plans and
auditdinspect all of the regulated stationary source's Safety Programs within one
year of the receipt of the Safety Purrs(January 15, 2001)
* Contra Costa Health Services will give an annual performance review and
evaluation report to the Board of Supervisors
Seven facilities that are covered by the Industrial Safety Ordinance are:

Effectiveness of Contra Costa Health Services' Implementation
of the Industrial Safety Ordinance
Health cervices has developed policies, procedures, protocols, and questionnaires to
implement both the California Accidental Release Prevention Program and the Industrial
Safety Ordinance. These policies, procedures, protocols, and questionnaires for these
programs are listed below:
® Audits/Inspections Policy
• Conducting the RMP/Safety Plan Completeness Review Protocol
• RMP Completeness Review(questionnaires
• Safety Placa Completeness Review Questionnaires
• Conducting Audits/Inspections Protocol
• Safe Work Practices Questionnaires
• Cal-ARP Program Audit Questionnaires
• Safety Program Audit Questionnaires
• Conducting Employee Interviews Protocol
• Employee Interview Questionnaires
• Public Participation Policy
® Dispute Resolution Policy
• Reclassification Policy
• Covered Process Modification Policy
• CaIARP Internal'Performance Audit Policy
• Conducting the Interval Performance Audit
• CalARP Internal Audit Performance Audit Submission
• Pee Policy
• Notification Policy
• Unannounced Inspection Policy
• Risk Management Plan.Public Review Policy
Health Services has developed the Contra Costa County CaL4RP Program Guidance
Document and the Contra Costa County Safety Program Guidance Document. These
documents give guidance on how the regulated stationary sources can comply with the
Industrial Safety Ordinance. The Safety Program Guidance Document Inherently safer
Systems section of the Process Hazard Analysis has been revised in 2002 to give better
guidance on what is required by the Industrial Safety Ordinances The guidance describes
what is to be stone for a new facility or process,existing process units, and for mitigations
items that are the :result of a Process Hazard Analysis. The policies, procedures,
protocols,questionnaires, and guidance documents are available through Health Services.
Health Services has also reviewed all of the regulated stationary sources' Safety Playas
and auditedlinspected all of the Safety Programs. Focused audits were performed from
Page 3 of 19
Industrial Safety Ordinance Annual Report
January 28,2003
November 2001 through April 2002 at each of the different stationary; sources. The
focused audits looked at the Human Factors Programs that were established at each of
these facilities and their Inherently Safer Systems Programs and practices. Two focused
audits were performed to review the strike contingency plans that were developed as part
of the stationary source's management of organizational changes when there is a change
that can affect the Operations or Health and Safety responsibilities of the stationary
source.
A public participation pilot project was contracted to Paper, Allied Chemical and Energy
International Union (PACE) for the communities of Rodeo and Crockett. FACE held two
workshops to describe the Industrial Safety Ordinance, the ConocoPhillips Rodeo
Refinery Safety Flan, and the Health Services Preliminary Audit Findings for this
refinery. The number of participants at the public meeting did not improve through this
pilau project. The Beard of Supervisors approved Health Services to hire an individual to
do public outreach for the Industrial Safety Ordinance. The person to do this work would
be hired under a six month contract and would be responsible for public ',outreach in the
communities of Martinez, North Concord, Pacheco, Clyde, and Bay Point and would
report to the Hazardous Materials Programs Ombudsman. The Notice of Deficiencies on
the Safety Plans and the completed Preliminary Audit Findings are available through
Health Services.
Effectiveness of the Procedures for Records Management
Health Services has setup hard copy and computer files for each of the regulated
stationary sources. The files include the fallowing folders:
Annual status reports
* Audits &Inspections
* Communications
* Completeness Review
* Emergency Response
* Incident Investigation
: Trade Secret Information
The paper files are kept in a central location and the information for each of the regulated
stationary sources is kept in this file. The Accidental Release Prevention Program has a
file setup on the Health Services Network where the files for each of the different
regulated stationary sources are found and that are accessible to each of,the Accidental
Release Prevention Program Engineers. The Accidental Release Prevention Program
files also contain regulations, policies, information from the EPA, OES, the Chemical
Safety and Hazards Investigation Board, and other information pertinent to the engineers.
The risk management and safety plans that Health Services receive are kept in a central
location that is accessible to the engineers.
Health Services revised the existing database that is used to track the status of each of the
stationary sources, including the status of each of their root cause analysis reports. This
revision allows for easier access for inputting and reading the data that exists in the
Page 4 of 19
Industrial Safety Ordinance Annual Deport
January 28, 2003
databases. Health Services :has also expanded the amount of data that is Dept through this
database.
Number and Type of Audits and Inspections Conducted
Health services was;required to audit and inspect all seven regulated stationary sources
that are required to comply with the Industrial Safety Ordinance within one year after the
initial submittal of their Safety dans. Health .Services reviewed all of the Safety Plans
and audited/inspected all of the stationary sources' Safety Programs within that year
(2000). The Industrial Safety Ordinance requires Health Services to auditlinspect each of
the different stationary sources at least once every three years. As mentioned above,
Health Services performed focused audits on the stationary sources for their Human
Factors Programs (this was not included in the original audit/inspection, since the
stationary sources were not required to have their Human Factor Program in place until
January 2001) and Inherently Safer Systems. .Additional focused audits were performed
to look at how two stationary sources would manage the organizationalchange in case
there was a strife and non-striking personnel were used instead of the striking personnel.
Health Services has scheduled the second round of complete audits for the Industrial
Safety Ordinance stationary sources for 2003.
When Health Services reviews a Safety Flan., a Notice of Deficiencies is produced that
documents what changes to their Safety Plan a regulated stationary source has to do for
Health Services determine that the ,Safety Plan is complete. The regulated stationary
source has sixty to ninety days to respond to the Notice of Deficiencies. When the
regulated stationary source has responded to this Notice of Deficiencies, Health Services
will review the response. Health Services will state that the Safety Flan is complete or
will work with the regulated stationary source, until the .Safety Plan is complete. When
the Safety flan is complete, Health Services will open a public comment period on the
Safety Plan and held a public meeting. Health Services will respond to all written
comments in writing and when appropriate use the comments in the audit/inspection of
the regulated stationary sources.
Health Services will issue Preliminary Audit Findings after an audit/inspection is
complete. The regulated stationary source will have ninety days to respond to these
findings. Health Services will review the response from the regulated stationary source
on the Preliminary .Audit Findings. When the regulated stationary source has developed
an action plan to came into compliance with the regulations, Health. Services will issue
the Preliminary .Audit Findings for public comment and will hold a public meeting.
Health Services will review the regulated stationary source's Safety Program after the
public comment period is complete and if necessary will revise the Preliminary Audit
Findings as appropriate. When this is complete Health Services will issue the Final Audit
Findings, Table I lists the status of Health Services review of the different regulated
stationary sources Safety flans and audit and inspections of their.Safety Programs,

Industrial Safety Ordinance Annual Report
January 28, 2003
Number of Root Cause Analyses andlor Incident Investigations
Conducted by Health Services
Health Services has not performed any incident investigations, including a root cause
analysis for the last year. Health Services has had meetings on the status and the progress
of the regulated stationary sources own incident investigations and root cause analyses
for Major Chemical'Accidents or Releases and has reviewed the reports submitted to
Health services.
Two public meetings were held after accidents that occurred at the then Equilon Martinez
Defining Company. The meetings included a panel of the Martinez City Council and
Contra Costa County representatives to the Bay Area Air Quality Management Board.
These meeting were very well attended and included presentations from Equilon and
Health Services, The City Council and the BAAQMD representative asked questions of
Health Services and Equilon. Then the public was given an opportunity to ask questions
and to give their comments. The questions and comments that were raised from the
public were captured and a response was prepared and distributed to all of the people
snaking the comments by Health Services.
Health Services Process for Public Participation
The public turnout for the public meetings that have been held to receive;input from the
community for the different Safety Plans has been low. The Board. of Supervisors hired
the Paper, Allied Chemical, and Energy International Union (PACE) to work with the
County on a pilot project to increase the attendance at a public sheeting for the review of
the ConocoPhillips Safety Plan and Health Services Preliminary Audit Findings for this
stationary source. PACE held two workshops to discuss the information that is included
in the Safety Plan and the Preliminary Audit Findings. A public meeting was held on
April 9, 2002 and the turnout was again low. The Board of Supervisors directed the
Hazardous Materials Ombudsman to hire someone on a six-month contract to work with
the communities of Martinez, Pacheco, Clyde, and Bay Point on educating them on the
information that can be found in the Safety Plans and in the Preliminary Audit Findings.
Bob I£atin has been Mired to fulfill this role and three public meeting will be held in May
2003 for the remaining six Industrial Safety Ordinance stationary sources.
Effectiveness of the Public Information Bank
Health Services has been directed by the Board of Supervisors to work with the
Hazardous Materials Commission on having the Public Information Bank up and
operational on June 1,2003.
Effectiveness of the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman
The Board of Supervisors created the Hazardous :materials Chnbudsperson position in
1997. This position was filled in April 1998. The Board believed that the ombudsperson
would be a conduit to the public to express their concerns about how Hazardous
Materials Programs personnel are performing their duties. Attachment A is a report from
the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman on the effectiveness of the position.
Page 7 of 19
Industrial Safety Ordinance Annual Report
January 28, 2003
Other Required Program Elements Necessary to Implement and
Manage the Industrial Safety Ordinance
The Board of Supervisor in Jane 2403 required Health Services to perform unannounced
inspections of the stationary sources that are regulated by the CalARP .and the federal
Risk Management Programs. The unannounced inspections would include an engineer
from the accidental release prevention programs and a Hazardous Materials Specialist to
be on the unannounced inspections team. Health Services completed the protocols for the
unannounced inspections. Trainings were completed that will assist ,the Hazardous
Materials Specialistto understand some of the CalARP Program and will assist the
accidental release prevention program engineers auditing techniques that will be
beneficial for unannounced inspections and for the scheduled audits/inspections.
Health Services have been performing Unannounced inspections, since February 2001.

Staters of the Incident Investigations, Including the Boat Cause
Analyses Conducted by the Regulated Stationary Sources
The Industrial Safety Ordinance requires the regulated stationary sources to do an
incident investigation with a root cause analysis for each of the major chemical accidents
or releases as defined by the following: "Major Chemical Accident or Release means an
incident that meets the definition of as Level 3 or Level 2 incident in the Community
Warning Systema incident level classification system defined in the September 27, 1997
Contra Costa County guideline for the Community Warning System as determined by
Contra Costa .health Services; or results in the release including, but not limited to, air,
water, or snail of as regulated substance and meets one or more of f the following criteria;
1. Results in one or more fatalities
2. Results in greater than 24 hours of hospital treatment of three or more persons

3, Causes on andlor of,-site property damage (including clean-up and restoration
activities) initially estimated at $500,000 or more. On-site estimates shall be
performed by the regulated stationary source. Off-site estimates shall be
performed by appropriate agencies and compiled by Health.Services
4. Results in a flammable vapor cloud of more than 5,000 pounds"
The regulated stationary source is required to submit a report to Health 'Services thirty
days after the root cause analysis is complete. The record of the major chemical
accidents or releases that have occurred within the last year and the status of each of these
incidents investigations are included in Table IV.
Legal Enforcement Actions Initiated by Health Services
As part of the enforcement of the Industrial Safety Ordinance and the CalARP Program,
Health Services issues Notice of Deficiencies on the Safety and Disk Management Plans
and issues Audit Findings on drat a regulatory stationary source is required to change to
come into compliance with the regulations. Fable I shows the action that has been taker
by Health Services. Health Services has not taken any action through the District
Attorney's Office for noncompliance with the requirements of the Industrial Safety
Ordinance.
Penalties Assesse as a Result of Enforcement
;o penalties have been assessed this year for noncompliance with the Industrial Safety
Ordinance.

'fetal Personnel and Personnel Years Utilized by Health Services to
Implement the Industrial Safety Ordinance
It has taken approximately 650 hours for the accidental release prevention programs engineers to
perform the focused audits to review the Human Factor Programs and the Strike Contingency Plans.
This includes the onsite audit, writing the audit findings report, and following up with the regulated
stationary sources. It has taken approximately 250 hours working with the Hazardous Materials
Commission and preparing reports to the Board of Supervisor on proposed amendments to the
Industrial Safety Ordinance. It has taken another approximately 250 hours revising the Guidance
Document on the Safety Program for Inherently Safer Systems. It has taken approximately 1.50
hours working on public participation of the Industrial Safety Ordinance that includes working with.
PACE, a public meeting for the ConocoPhillips Rodeo Refinery, addressing comments to the
ConocoPhillips report, and interviewing and working for the person to do the public outreach for the
Industrial Safety Ordinance. This gives a total of 1300 hours for the Accidental Release Prevention
Programs Engineers.
This is not including the ombudsman time spent helping prepare for the public meetings, facilitating
the public meetings, and answering questions from the public on the Industrial Safety Ordinance.
Comments From Interested Parties Regarding the Effectiveness of the
Industrial Safety Ordinance
Public comments on a regulated stationary source as part of the Industrial 'Safety Ordinance that
have been received have been on the Safety Flann for the Phillips San Francisco Area Refinery at
Rodeo. The comments were basest on the Accident History that was documented in the Safety Plan.
Health Services is with ConocoPhillips on revising their Safety Plan to address the comments
received on their Safety Flan.
The Impact of the Industrial Safety Ordinance on Improving
Industrial Safety
Four programs are in place to reduce the potential of an accidental release from a regulated
stationary source that could impact the surrounding community. The four programs are the Process
Safety Management Program administered by Cal/OSHA, the federal Accidental Release Prevention
Program administered by the EPA, the California Accidental Release Prevention Program
administered by Health Services, and the Industrial Safety Ordinance administered by health
Services. Each of the programs is very similar with differences in each of thein. The prevention
elements of the program level 3 regulated stationary sources under the federal Accidental Release
Prevention Program is identical to the Process Safety Management Program. I The main differences
between the federal Accidental Release Prevention and the CalARP Programs are the number of
chemicals regulated, the threshold quantity of these chemicals, an external events.analysis, including
seismic analysis, is required, the amount of detail in the Risk. Management Flan, the auditing and
inspecting of the regulated stationary sources by Health Services, and the interaction required
between the regulated stationary source and Health Services. The differences between the CaIARP
and Safety Programs are that for a major chemical accident or release the regulated stationary
sources are required to include a root cause analysis with the incident investigations, consider

inherently safer practices, all of the process at the regulated stationary source are covered under the
Industrial safety Ordinance, and the implementation of a Hunan Factors Programs.
The implementation of the additional safety programs required by the Industrial Safety Ordinance
has reduced the probability of an accident occurring at these stationary sources. The Hunan Factors
Program requires the facilities to review their facility for latent conditions that may exist as part of
their Process Hazard Analysis. This review will take approximately five years to complete. All of
these requirements will and have made a change in the probability of an accident occurring. The
revised Guidance Document for Inherently Safer Systems will reduce the overall hazards at the
stationary sources and again will reduce the probability of having a Major Chemical Accident or
Release.
City of Richmond Industrial Safety Ordinance
The City of Richmond passed their version of the Industrial Safety Ordinance on December 18, 2001'
that became effective on January 17, 2002. Richmond's Industrial Safety Ordinance mirrors the
County's Industrial Safety Ordinance. Richmond's Industrial Safety Ordinance covers two
stationary sources: Chevron and General Chemical Richmond Works. These facilities are required:
to submit their Safety Plans to Health Services by January 17, 2003. The Richmond Industrial
Safety Ordinance requires the City to have a contract with Health Services to administer their
Industrial Safety Ordinance. This would make it consistent with the rest of the county that is subject
to the County's Industrial Safety Ordinance. The City of Richmond and the County is in the process
of finalizing this contract.
Health Services has been working with Chevron and General Chemical on developing their Safety
Plans and the additional programs that are required under the Industrial Safety Ordinance. Health'
Services have been working with both facilities on their root cause analysis after a major chemical'
accident or release occurs at these stationary sources. Health Services will review Chevron and
General Chemical's Safety Plans and audit both stationary sources to ensure compliance with
Richmond's Industrial Safety Ordinance by January 17, 2004.
General Chemical Richmond Works Safety Evaluation
The City of Richmond, Health Services, and the Board of Supervisors were concerned about the
overall safety of the General Chemical Richmond Works facility and asked for a third-party safety'
evaluation of this site. General Chemical agreed to the safety evaluation. An oversight committee'
was formed consisting of General Ohecal management, General Chemical employee union, the
City of Richmond,Health Services, the Hazardous Materials Commission, and a representative from
the community. The oversight committee developed the scope of work and a request for proposal'
and selected a third-party to perform the evaluation. NIRS Environmental was hired as the thirst
party consultants to perform the safety evaluation.
IMRS conducted a Safety Climate Survey that was developed by the Health and Safety Executive
from the United Kingdom. They did an onsite evaluation, held two public meetings to receive
comments and questions from the community, submitted a draft report and a final report, and made`
oral presentation to the Board of Supervisors and the Richmond City Council. General Chemical has>'
developed an action plan to address all of the recommendations and findings from the safety',

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
OMBUDSMAN REPORT
Hazardous Materials Ombudsman Evaluation for the Year 2002
In Introduction
On July 15, 1997 the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors authorized creation of
an Ombudsman position for the County's Hazardous Materials Programs.The first
Hazardous Materials Ombudsman began work on May 1, 1995. The Contra Costa County
Board of,Supervisors adopted an Industrial Safety Ordinance on December 15, 1998.
Section 450-5.022 of the Industrial Safety Ordinance requires the Health Services
Department to continue to employ an Ombudsman for the Hazardous Materials
Programs. Section 4513-8.030(B)(vii)of the Industrial Safety Ordinance requires an
annual evaluation of the effectiveness of the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman, with the
first evaluation to be completed on or before October 31, 2000.
The goals of section 45€3-8.022 of the Industrial Safety Ordinance for the Hazardous
Materials Ombudsman are:
1) To serve as a single point of contact for people who live or work in Contra Costa
County regarding environmental health concerns,questions and complaints about
the Hazardous Materials Programs.
2) To investigate concerns and complaints,facilitate their resolution,and assist
people in gathering information about programs,procedures, or issues.
3) To provide technical assistance to the public,
The Hazardous Materials Ombudsman currently accomplishes these goals by:
l) Continuing an outreach strategy so that the people who live and work in Contra
Costa County can know about and utilize the program..
2) Investigating and responding to questions and complaints, and assisting people in
gathering information about programs,procedures, or issues.
3) Participating in a network of environmental projects for the purpose of providing
technical assistance.
This evaluation covers the year 2002 for the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman program.
The effectiveness of the program shall be demonstrated by describing that the activities
of the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman meet the goals established in the Industrial
Safety Ordinance.
IIo Program Elements
Ie Continuing the Outreach Strategy
This year,efforts were focused on continuing a maintenance-level of outreach. A new
edition of the Ombudsman brochure was published in June, and copies were distributed
to the public at meetings, presentations, public events, and through the mail. in addition
to explaining the services provided by the position, the brochure also provides the phone
numbers of several other related County and State programs.The web page was
maintained for the program as part of Contra Costa:health Services web site. This page
contains information about the program,links to other related web sites, and information
about upcor-ing meetings and events, Pour invited presentations were made to
community groups about the ombudsman program. A toll-free phone number is still
published in all three Contra Costa County phone books in than Government section.
2m Investigating and Responding to Questions and Complaints,and Assisting in
Information Gathering
A. Responding to Questions and Complaints
This year, the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman received 1.53 requests for,assistance
from the general public. Over 98 percent of these requests occurred via the telephone,and
have been requests for information about environmental issues. Most of these requests
concern problems around the home such as asbestos removal,household hazardous waste
disposal, pesticide misuse, and lead contamination.The number of calls received this
year were down 40%from the number of calls.received last year because almost all calls
regarding.mold are now referred to Environmental Health. Last year, 59 calls mold-
related calls were received.
Information requests,about environmental issues received via the telephone were
generally responded to within one business clay of being received. Many of the
information requests were answered daring the initial call. Some requests required the
collection of information or written materials which often took several days to compile.
Telephone requests were responded to by telephone unless written materials needed to be
sent as part of the response.
Complaints about the Hazardous Materials Programs have beer,received via telephone
and in writing. Persons that have made complaints via telephone have been: also asked to
provide those complaints in writing. This year, the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman
received 4 complaints about activities or actions of the Hazardous Materials Programs.
Two of these complaints were resolved by having the Director of the Hazardous
Materials Programs provide additional information or services. One of these concerned a
report of illegal stornwater dumping. The other concerned the public health risk from a
chemical release. The other two complaints resulted in the Ombudsman providing written
analyses and recommendations to the Director of Contra Costa health Services and the
Director of the Hazardous Materials Programs. One report was an analysis of the use of
the telephone ring-down systemm during a Level Three incident. The other report was an
analysis and resulting recommendations concerning the accident:history provisions of the
Industrial Safety Ordinance.
B. Assisting in Information Gathering
Many of the environmental pollution issues that Contra Costa residents are concerned
about are on-going regulatory programs or industrial activities. Helping people to
participate in these regulatory activities or to effectively advocate their interests about an
industrial activity usually means providing them with more information or advice than
can be done with a single phone call. Often these issues are complex and can tale Months
to resolve. Some of this is done through technical assistance, which will be covered in the
next section.
Another way of helping the public to gather information is to ensure the public has the
opportunity to be informed about, and participate in, important decisions related to
environmental protection.The Hazardous Materials Ombudsman has done this by
organizing, promoting and facilitating public involvement in important hazardous
materials issues. These are as follows:
ffi Industrial Safety Ordinance Public Participation—The Ordinance requires that
public meetings be held at various stages of the process.The hazardous Materials
Ombudsman worked closely with the Hazardous Materials Programs staff and the
Board of Supervisors to develop an intensive public outreach strategy for the
Industrial Safety Ordinance,This effort was implemented in response to a community
group's concern that there was not enough public involvement in the process.During
2001, a process was developed to create the type of public involvement desired and to
Dire an outside organization to conduct a pilot project in the communities surrounding
the Philips refinery in Rodeo. This organization started the outreach program in
November of 2001. This pilot program was completed in March of 2002. Based on
the results of this pilot program, the Board of Supervisors directed the Hazardous
Materials Ombudsman to hire and supervise an Industrial Safety Ordinance Public
Participation facilitator to conduct outreach for six months to the remaining six
facilities subject to the ISO. This position began work in December of 2002 and will
continue to May of 2003.
Past-Incident Survey---As a result of discussions held at a Protecting the Public
conference in 1999, the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman took the lead in developing
a telephone survey that would be administered to people in the area affected by a
chemical accident.During 2001, funding was secured to develop the survey,a
consultant was hired to create the surveys and the first survey was initiated after an
incident at a refinery in October, 2001. In 2002,four additional surveys were
conducted after level 2 and 3 incidents at facilities. The results of the surrey are being
used to Della.review the community outreach program for the Community Warning
System.The Hazardous Materials Ombudsman also led the effort to develop a base-
line survey that will be administered county-wide in 2003 to evaluate residents
knowledge of the Community Warning System..
Laotian Telephone Ring-down Project-As a result of a major fire at a refinery in
Richmond in 1999, the Laotian community in the Richmond area was concerned
about the lack of understanding of many Laotians about the Community Warning
System and what to do in the event of a release. They requested the County to
develop a way to send the automated telephone ring-drawn: system message, which is
part of the Community Warning System, to Laotian households in four Laotian
languages.The Hazardous Materials Ombudsman worked with the Director of the
Hazardous Materials Programs and the Laotian Organizing Project to develop this
program.In 2001, $140,000 of funding was secure to implement the project and a
project coordinator was fired. In 2002 the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman hired 4
outreach staff and supervised all 5 staff people to implement this program.The
project is scheduled to be completed in Spring of 2003.
* Laotian Health access TaskForce-As a result of trying to secure funding for the
Laotian telephone ring-down project,the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman
coordinated an effort to work with the entire Laotian community to identify and make
recommendations about the most important health access concerns of the Laotian
community. This effort began in the pall of 2000 and continued throughout 2001 with
a series of meetings. In the end, a matrix of issues,resources,needs and proposals
was developed.The work of the task farce was presented to elected officials and
County Health Services officials in March. 2002.
Chemical Incident Co unity Meetings—.after two chemical incidents, the
Ombudsman coordinated community meetings to enable the community to learn
about the incidents,to ask questions and state their concerns. He also reviewed the
responses prepared by the Hazardous Materials programs staff to ensure they were
complete and understandable. Also, as a result of a series of chemical incidents,one
facility was ordered to conduct an auditof thein safety culture. The Ombudsman
facilitated public meetings held to discuss this audit and reviewed the responses to
questions prepared by Hazardous Materials programs staff.
Bay Area Air Quality Management District Workshop®The Ombudsman
participated in a workshop presented by the fir District to Spanish-speaking residents
of Martinez.This workshop was designed to answer their general questions about air
quality and industrial safety. In 2003,the Ombudsman will participate in follow-up
meetings to further address the community's concerns.
Sierra-Crete—In May, 2002 the Dupont Company notified the County that a product
they manufactured at their Oakely facility,sold as road bedding, and used uncles 36
miles of roads in east Centra.Costa County,contained.dioxins.Further, the roads
where Sierra-Crete was used have extensively cracked and surface staining indicated
that dioxins may have migrated to the road surfaces. From May to December, the
Ombudsman assisted the Public Health Director in staffing a task force of
government entities and members of the public to collect samples and conduct a risk
assessment. In early 2003,the Ombudsman will coordinate four public meetings to
discuss the results of the rash assessment and take public comment.
. Participating in a Network of Environmental Projects for the Purpose of
Providing Technical assistance.
Technical assistance means helping the public understand the regulatory, scientific,
political,and legal aspects of issues. It also means helping them understand how to
effectively communicate their concerns within these different arenas. This year,the
Ombudsman continued to staff a number of County projects, as well as participate in
others to be able to provide technical assistance to the participants and the public.
• The Hazardous Materials Interagency Taskforce—'Phis group of local,state and
federal agency representatives meets monthly to share information and discuss issues
of local importance concerning hazardous materials. This year the Hazardous
Materials Ombudsman was the chairperson for this taskforce.
• CAE (Community Awareness and Emergency Response) -This non-profit
organization addresses industrial accident prevention,response and communication.
The Ombudsman participated in the Community Outreach and Emergency
Notification sub-committees of CAER. The Ombudsman developed and facilitated a
CCTV calf hour presentation on the use of National Weather Service radios as part of
the Community Warning System.
• Hazardous Materials Commission—In 2001, the Ombudsman took over as staff for
the commission. In 2002, the commission focused its efforts on 3 issues, a
comprehensive review of the Industrial Safety Ordinance (ISO), the development of a
drug lab cleanup policy,and further development of the County's Environmental
Justice policy. As staff to the commission, the Ombudsman conducted research,
prepared reports and board orders, and presented the Commission's recommendations
to the Board of Supervisors for the ISO and drug lab issues.The Ombudsman hired
and supervised an Environmental Justice analyst who began in March, 2002. She is
assisting County Departments in their efforts to implement the County's
Environmental Justice Policy. This effort will be done in sprang of 2003.
• Public and Environmental Health advisory Board—As staff to the Environmental
Health subcommittee of PEHAB, the Ombudsman completed a report on pest
management issues in the County in larch, 2001. In response to this report,the
Board of Supervisors asked Health Services and the County Agricultural
Commissioner to convene a work group to develop an Integrated Pest Management
Policy for the County. The Ombudsman represented Health Services as co-chair of
this work group. The final proposal was completed in April, 2002 and adopted by the
Board of Supervisors in November of 2002. In addition to working on the pesticide
issue,the Ombudsman tracked the development of several other issues for PB AB.
These issues were the Association of Bay Area Governments' efforts to develop
dioxin reduction guidelines for Bay area cities, and the State Department of Health
Services' efforts to coordinate educational efforts about consumption of contaminated
fish.
• Asthma Management Team—The Ombudsman participated in the Public Health
Department's asthma management team as a resource on environmental health issues.
The Ombudsman also conducted one training to 20 community advocates,one
training to g Public Health nurses, and was invited to conduct two workshops on
environmental pollution at a Center for Health Care Strategies Asthma conference in
Atlanta.
• Partnership for the Public's Health®The Ombudsman served in a technical
assistance capacity in 2002 for implementing the workplan for this Public Health
Department Program. The Ombudsman helped develop and present four town hall
meetings on environmental issues.
The Hazardous Materials Ombudsman also attended workshops, presentations,meetings
and trainings on a variety of environmental issues to be better able to provide technical
assistance to the public. These were sponsored the Federal Environmental Protection
Agency, the State Department of health Services, the Bay Area Air Quality Management
District, and the Association of Bay Area Governments.
III. Program management
The Hazardous Material Ombudsman continued to report to the Public Health Director on
a day-to-day basis in 2002,while still handling complaints and recommendations about
the Hazardous Materials Programs through the Health Services Director. The duties of
the Hazardous Materials Ombudsman were expanded this year to include direct
supervision of three contract employees and indirect supervision of four others--the
Laotian telephone ring-down project coordinator(who supervises four outreach workers),
the Environmental Justice Analyst, and the Industrial Safety Ordinance Public
Participation Facilitator. In addition,the Ombudsman is stili managing the contract for
the Industrial Safety Ordinance Post-Incident surveys, which began in 2001.In October,
in response to these additional duties, the Ombudsman took the 40 hour Leadership for
Results and Managerial Assessment of Proficiency course offered by the Contra Costa
Training Institute.

Rodeo, CA 94572
2. Contact name and telephone number(should CCHS have questions):
John Driscoll at(510)245-4466 or Chris Bowman at(510)245-4669
3. Summarize the status of the Stationary Source's Safety Flan and Program(450-8.03€1(13)(2)(i)):
The Safety Plan for this facility was updated on Marcia 1:8, 2002 with the Human Factor
section included within the Plan instead of beim attached as an ad end€ent It was
submitted to the County for review and comment at that time. The County opened a public
comment rat period which ran. from April 15, 2002 to May 29, 2002 to solicit comments from
the public on our plan. The County hired a consultant to establish an outreach program to
work with the community to explain our plana and to assist community members in preparing
comments about our plana The consulting group held a train-the-trainer class for interested
community members and then provided a class for interested community members on the
plan and solicitating of comments. In addition a CCS required public meeting was held by
the County on May 9 at the Rodeo Senior Center to discuss our Safety Plan, the Preliminary
Audit findings and the RMP. Only two community members attended that meeting. On
6124102 the County'forwarded comments, made by the public, to our plata. These comments
are presently under review.
4. Sun :arize Safety Plan updates(i.e.,brief explanation of update and corresponding date)(450-8.030(13)(2)(ii)):
The original Safety Plan for this facility was filed with Contra Costa Health Services on
January 14, 2000. A revised plan was filed on April 7, 2000 with the updated
recommendations requested by CC S. A Human Factors Amendment was submitted on
January 15, 2001. In conjunction with CCHSs required. 2`1 public meeting on our plan and
audit findings we revised our Safety Plan on March 18, 2002 to reflect the change in
ownership of our facility and to update accordingly. We took this opportunity to include
Human Factors within the plan instead of having it as an amendment. The Safety Plan for
this facility will be updated whenever a new covered process is added or on a 3 years cycle
from: the Last update(March 18, 2002). In addition,the accident history of this facility will be
updated every year after the orginal submittal. This submittal serves as the 2002 update.

On 5131/02 between. 5:00 Alm and 7:00 AM a process upset occurred at the .hydrogen
Purification section of the Unicracker Unit 240. A spray of liquid catacarb solution
(spproximately 388 lbs) was released in the form of aerosol droplets. to the atmosphere
from the B-401 stag. Wind direction was SSW at 7-15 MPH. Solution was detected
within the refinery and trace amounts were found on vegetation in the area immediately
north of the refinery. CCHS and Phillips H/S staff found no evidence to indicate any
health or significant off-site impact. 'There were no injuries reported. The 72 hour report
and 30 day report has been submitted. The Root Cause Analysis and final investigation
report are pending. As such this incident will be discussed in our next accident history
report.
On 7110/02 at approximately 3:36 PM The A turbine located at the Steam Pourer Plant
unexpectedly shutdown, This was followed by an unexpected shutdown of the C Turbine.
The refinery's other Turbine £3 had shutdown unexpectly earlier in the morning and was
being prepared for restart. The refinery's other source of steam., the B-1 Boiler, had
previously been taken out of service to complete lox Reduction project work. The
outage of all 3 turbines in this situation resulted in a refinery-gide loss of steam
production. When this occurred., a plant wide shut down of all operating units was

Update from the 20411 report on the root cause for the 6127/01 incident. On 6/27/01 a
small amount of gasoline (1.2 bbls) from line 101 was released to the Pay at our Marine
Terminal. kine 1,41 was Ding used at the time of the incident to load a tamer. The leak
location was at the lowest section of the line.Root Causes of the incident were.
• Line 1411 leaked due to locaized external pitting corrosion from salt water contact.
The leak was underside. To minimize the possibility of similar future incidents the
entire low lying section of line 101 has been replaced.
• Line 101 corrosion occurred due to failure or the coating/wrapping. ,It appears
probable that some localized corrosion damage on line 101 was not detected during
the 1998 reparirs and Densyl wrapping work on this line. A piping coating inspetion
and repair program is in place.
• The historical inspection methods (i.e. hydrotests, spot ultrasonics'and visual)used on
line 101 did not detect the corrosion that lead to the leak.A inspection prioritization
was completed. All lower bent Piping was re-inspected using glomal 'inspection
techniques. Remaining non-lower bent piping is on a inspection schedule to he
done the summer of 2002 using global techniques in addition`to the visual and
ultrasonic inspections.

Chapter 450-8 improves industrial safety at our facility by expanding the number of covered:
processes. All process units at this facility conte under the provisions of a program level 3.
Since the timeframe to implement recommendations generated via the RHA program is
shorter there is faster implementation of the recomrmY edation_
Chapter 450-8 includes requirements for inherently safer systems as part of implementing
PISA recommendations. SFR continues to have a aggressive approach to irn lernenting
inherently safer systems.
Chapter 450-8 has requirements to perform root cause ananyses on major chemical accidents
or rebases ( CSR). SFR has been applying REASON RCA methodology to any MCARs
that have occurred.
Chapter 450-8 requires a human factors program. SFR has developed and implemented a
program. All employees have received training on human factors. Latent condition checklists
have been incorporated into incident investigation, procedure writing, management of
orgizational change,field surveys and enhancement of the previous PITA checklist.
16. hist examples of changes made at your stationary source due to implementation of the Industrial safety
Ordinance (e.g., recommendations from PHA's, Compliance Audits, and Incident Investigations in units not
subject to CalAI2P regulations. recommendations from RCA's) that significantly decrease the severity or
likelihood of accidental release
Units not covered by RMP, CalARP and PSIS are subject to the same programs. They
have PHAs performed on them under the same timeframes outlined in the ISO and use
the sante timeframes for recommendation resolution.
Root Cause Analysis in being conducted utilizing the REASON methodology and has
been used on MCARs as listed in the response under question 7. When the RCAs and the
final reports for MCARs found in Item 5 are finalized they will be forward to CCHS,
A CCHS focused (MOOC, training, Emergency Response) audit was performed in
February 2002 with no findings reported. The Human FactorAnherently Systems audit
which was conducted in November 2001 has just been finalized. Action plans for the
findings are on a schedule for completion.
A list of inherently safer systems for passive and inherent strategies as required by the
ISO for PHA. recommendations and new process/facilities is attached. Of note is the
replacement of anhydrous ammonia with aqueous ammonia and the reduction in Stretford

event of a loss of stem were immediately initiated. Initial response involved mobilizing
operations department and technical support supervisors to assist unit operators and activate
the"Refinery's Emergency Operations Center(.ECSC). Additionally, a community Monitoring
team was immediately established to collect air samples in the neighboring communities.
Additional support was provided by holding-over the day shift personnel, initiating a pager
call out of off-shift supervisors and placing early arriving night crew operators directly on the
process emits. Agencies were notified through the EOC and those responding included CCC,
Rodeo/Hercules Eire Department, CCC Sheriff, State ECSC, and BAAQMD. A;C` S2 had
been initiated and Phillips requested an upgraded to a CWS3 precautionary shelter-in-Place
for the Crockett area only due to the direction of smoke travel from the flare. No injuries
were reported within 72 hours of the flaring incident.
