HAZARDOUS ENERGY CONTROL PROGRAM FOR HYDROPOWER FACILITIES

Supplementation of this regulation is prohibited.

1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE. This regulation is supplemental to ER 385-1-31. It establishes consistent procedures and criteria for the safe and reliable control of hazardous energy at USACE operated facilities. These procedures are established to prevent injury to personnel, damage to equipment or the unauthorized removal from or return to service of equipment, which would expose personnel, or equipment to injury or damage. For the purpose of this regulation, Hydropower Facilities includes all powerhouses, associated pumping stations and transmission facilities.

2. APPLICABILITY. This regulation applies to all Hydropower Facilities operated by South Atlantic Division (SAD) Districts.

3. REFERENCES.

a. 29 CFR 1910.147, 1910.269, 1910.333.

b. ER 385-1-31, The Control of Hazardous Energy, 1 November 2009.

c. OSHA Directive #CPL:02-00-147.

Regulation No. PDO-6 30 Sep 2011

4. EMERGENCIES.

a. In an emergency (i.e., imminent threat to life or limb), the Responsible Official may modify or suspend any of these requirements temporarily as may be considered necessary to permit proper handling of the specific emergency.

b. In handling such emergencies, safety of personnel and members of the public shall be given predominant consideration.

c. If emergency switching is required and Authorized Individuals are not available, other personnel may perform switching if deemed qualified by the Responsible Official.

d. All emergency actions and decisions shall be recorded in the Station Log.

5. RESPONSIBILITIES.

a. The SAD Hydropower Program Manager is responsible for the overall implementation, management and oversight of the Hazardous Energy Control (HEC) program.

b. The District Chief, Operations Division is responsible for implementation of the

HEC program within their District.

c. The Responsible Official at each Hydropower facility shall be the Power Project

Manager. The Responsible Official has overall responsibility for their Project’s Program (and associated HEC procedures) and ensures that the requirements of this regulation are properly applied and adhered to. Responsible Officials shall:

(1) Implement the HEC program and procedures applicable to the facilities under their control. Complete the necessary supplemental information in Appendix D and assure that the supplemental information is reviewed and revised as necessary and updated at least annually. A copy of the supplemental information shall be submitted to the District Hydropower Business Line Manager with each update.

(2) Authorize, in writing on the HEC Program Authorization Form, individuals who are qualified to be Issuing or Authorized Individuals.

(3) Authorize, in writing on the Equipment Authorization Form, equipment that can be removed from service without a clearance. Complete associated switching permit and Activity Hazard Analysis documentation.

(4) Authorize all safe clearances that require equipment outages that affect the mission of the plant. For this regulation, the mission of the plant is defined as the outage of any equipment that affects the generation or transmission capacity or capability.

(5) Assure periodic inspections of their facilities’ hazardous energy control program and procedures are performed.

(6) Assure that manuals and drawings which may be required for the application of lockout or tagout devices are available to all persons involved in safe clearances.

(7) Assure that initial and annual training on the HEC program and procedures are provided to all employees.

(8) Assure that appropriate investigation and action is taken subsequent to violations of the HEC program and procedures.

(9) Designate a representative to serve as Responsible Official in their absence.

This designation must be in writing and must have specific dates for the designation.

Each absence must have a new designation. This designation shall be recorded in the Station Log in red ink identifying the temporary Responsible Official, start date and end date.

d. The Issuing Individual maintains control over supervised equipment and systems.

Upon issuance of a safe clearance the Issuing Individual temporarily relinquishes control of equipment to Authorized Individuals for the accomplishment of servicing/maintenance work. The Issuing Individual shall:

(1) Review requests for safe clearance; upon verifying that the proposed HEC procedures meet the requirements of the HEC program, and that the procedures are adequate for the work to be performed, the Issuing Individual may approve the Safe Clearance Request form.

(2) Authorize all safe clearances that do not require equipment outages that affect the mission of the plant.

(3) Provide the Principal Authorized Individual receiving the clearance with a copy of the Safe Clearance Order form (ENG Form 1927) for procedure verification.

(4) Follow SAD policy/regulation for interruption of services.

(5) Develop a switching order for removal from service and restore to service, if applicable. Perform the positioning of all energy isolation devices as listed in the switching order. (NOTE: The positioning of all energy isolation devices as listed in the switching order may be performed by a Designated Representative.)

(6) Perform the positioning of all energy isolation devices as listed on the Safe Clearance Order form and tag all points accordingly; place locking devices and tags, affixing in a manner that will hold the energy isolating devices in a “safe” position;

assure that tags are fastened at the same point at which the lockout device is attached.

(NOTE: All the above may be performed by a Designated Representative of the Issuing Individual.)

(7) Maintain awareness of equipment condition and status during the safe clearance.

(8) Remove tags and locking devices and perform switching necessary to assure equipment is ready for service after work has been completed and all Authorized Individuals have released the safe clearance before returning equipment to service.

(NOTE: This may be performed by a Designated Representative of the Issuing Individual.)

(9) Record the request, issue, release and other required safe clearance information in the station log.

e. The Principal Authorized Individual (PAI) requests the safe clearance, holds the clearance and manages the safe clearance such that work performed by Affected Persons working under their clearance and/or group lockout/tagout is as detailed in this HEC program. The PAI shall:

(1) Ascertain the exposure status of individual group members (during group lockout/tagout) with regard to the lockout or tagout of the system.

(2) Have overall job-associated lockout or tagout control responsibility to coordinate affected work force and ensure continuity of protection when more than one crew, craft, department, etc., are involved.

(3) Make request for safe clearance by using the Safe Clearance Request form

(NOTE: Requests for safe clearances may be made verbally.)

(4) Check the HEC procedures to assure that the protection to be provided is adequate for the work to be performed.

(5) Assure the correct positioning (energized/de-energized) of all energy isolation devices and tags.

(6) Make appropriate tests to verify isolation of the system; if there is a possibility of reaccumulation of stored energy to a hazardous level, verification of isolation shall be continued.

(7) Affix an isolation lock on each lockable energy isolation device, place the key or keys into a group lock box, and secure the lock box with a personal lock prior to beginning work.
