CHEMICAL SAFETY AND HAZARD 

INVESTIGATION BOARD 

Sunshine Act Meeting; Request for 

Comments on Draft Evaluation of 

Recommended Practice on Fatigue 

Risk Management Systems for 

Personnel in the Refining and 

Petrochemical Industries 

TIME AND DATE: April 24, 2013; 9:30 a.m. 

EDT. 

PLACE: Ronald Reagan Building and 

International Trade Center, Horizon 

Room, 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., 

Washington, DC 20004. 

STATUS: Open to the public. 

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: The 

Chemical Safety and Hazard 

Investigation Board (CSB) will convene 

a public meeting on Wednesday, April 

24, 2013, starting at 9:30 a.m. EDT at the 

Ronald Reagan Building and 

International Trade Center, Horizon 

Room, 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., 

Washington, DC 20004. At the meeting, 

CSB will consider and vote on the status 

of Recommendation No. 2005–04–I–TX– 

7 issued to the American Petroleum 

Institute (API) and the United 

Steelworkers International Union (USW) 

in March 2007. This recommendation 

urged API and USW to jointly lead the 

development of an ANSI consensus 

standard with guidelines for fatigue 

prevention. The CSB based this 

recommendation on its investigation of 

explosions and fires that occurred at 

BP’s Texas City Refinery on March 23, 

2005. 

In addition the Board intends to 

consider status designations for the 

following recommendations to the U.S. 

Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration: 2001–05–I–DE–1 

(Process Safety Management coverage of 

atmospheric storage tanks); 2005–04–I– 

TX–9 (Process Safety Management 

requirement for organizational 

management of change reviews); 2010– 

07–I–CT–1 (Regulations addressing fuel 

gas safety). Subject to the call of the 

chairperson, the Board may consider 

other recommendations-related items 

that have been calendared for 

consideration at a public meeting. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 

23, 2005, explosions and fires in an 

isomerization unit (ISOM) at BP’s Texas 

City Refinery caused 15 deaths, 180 

injuries, and significant economic 

losses. The CSB’s investigation found 

that the incident was caused by 

multiple technical, system, and 

organizational deficiencies. For detailed 

information on the incident and the 

CSB’s investigation, please refer to the 

CSB’s investigation report on the CSB’s 

Web site, www.csb.gov. 

Among its most important findings, 

the CSB concluded that the ISOM 

operators were likely fatigued from 

working 12-hour shifts, some working as 

many as 29 consecutive days during the 

turnaround of the unit prior to startup, 

and that, as a result, the operators’ 

judgment and problem-solving skills 

were likely degraded, hindering their 

ability to determine that a distillation 

tower in the ISOM unit was overfilling 

with hydrocarbons and to take prompt 

corrective steps. Accordingly, the CSB 

issued Recommendation No. 2005–04– 

I–TX–7 to API and the USW which 

reads in pertinent part as follows: 

[D]evelop fatigue prevention guidelines for 

the refining and petrochemical industries 

that, at a minimum, limit hours and days of 

work and address shift work. 

Both API and USW initially accepted 

the recommendation. The API, formed 

an ANSI committee that the USW 

joined. In August 2009, however, the 

USW withdrew from the committee in 

protest of what it perceived to be an 

imbalance in voting members 

(management vs. union and other 

representatives). The API proceeded 

with the committee’s work and issued 

an ANSI-approved Recommended 

Practice (RP 755) in April 2010. 

After review, the CSB staff found that 

RP 755 makes a contribution to 

chemical safety by explicitly stating that 

‘‘workplace fatigue is a risk to safe 

operations’’ and also by suggesting 

various measures to manage fatigue 

risks. However, the staff determined that 

RP 755 does not fully meet the intent of 

the CSB recommendation in multiple 

important respects, and therefore has 

urged the Board to vote designating the 

status of Recommendation No. 2005–4– 

I–TX–7 as ‘‘Open-Unacceptable 

Action.’’ 

At the meeting on April 24, 2013, the 

staff will present its analysis to the 

Board. Following the staff presentation, 

the Board will hear comments from the 

public. Following the conclusion of the 

public comment period, the Board will 

consider whether to approve the 

proposed evaluation and to change the 

status of Recommendation No. 2005– 

04–I–TX–7 to ‘‘Open-Unacceptable 

Action’’ or to some other status in 

accordance with Board Order 22. 

REQUEST FOR COMMENTS: The Board 

welcomes public comment on the staff 

evaluation and proposed disposition of 

Recommendation No. 2005–04–I–TX–7. 

The detailed draft evaluation will be 

posted on the CSB Web site by March 

11, 2013, and will be available for 

review and comment until 5 p.m. E.D.T.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit to the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) for clearance the 

following proposal for collection of 

information under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35). 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 

Title: Northeast Multispecies 

Amendment 16. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0605.

Burden Hours: 80,637. 

Needs and Uses: This request is for 

revision and extension of a current 

information collection. Under the 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act 

(Magnuson-Stevens Act), the Secretary 

of Commerce has the responsibility for 

the conservation and management of 

marine fishery resources. We, National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration’s (NOAA) National 

Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and 

the Regional Fishery Management 

Councils are delegated the majority of 

this responsibility. The New England 

Fishery Management Council (Council) 

develops management plans for fishery 

resources in New England. 

In 2010, we implemented a new suite 

of regulations for the Northeast (NE) 

multispecies fishery through 

Amendment 16 to the Multispecies 

Fishery Management Plan (Amendment 

16). This action updated status 

determination criteria for all regulated 

NE multispecies or ocean pout stocks; 

adopted rebuilding programs for NE 

multispecies stocks newly classified as 

being overfished and subject to 

overfishing; revised management 

measures, including significant 

revisions to the sector management 

measures, necessary to end overfishing, 

rebuild overfished regulated NE 

multispecies and ocean pout stocks, and 

mitigate the adverse economic impacts 

of increased effort controls. It also 

implemented new requirements under 

Amendment 16 for establishing 

acceptable biological catch (ABC), 

annual catch limits (ACLs), and 

accountability measures (AMs) for each 

stock managed under the FMP, pursuant 

to the Magnuson-Stevens Act. 

Revisions: The Restricted Gear 

Requirements have been removed from 

the regulations. Therefore the 

requirement to declare into these areas 

via VMS, or to receive an LOA are also 

removed from this information 

collection. 

Also, percentages of trip monitoring, 

planned to change after the first three 

years, are changed. 

In an attempt to consolidate reporting 

requirements that are mandated by the 

NE multispecies regulation, we propose 

moving some requirements out of OMB 

Control No. 0648–0202, Northeast 

Region Permit Family of Forms, and 

into this collection, including: The 

Days-at-Sea Transfer Program, 

Expedited Submission of Proposed 

Special Access Programs, and North 

Atlantic Fisheries Organization 

Reporting Requirements. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations. 

Frequency: Annually, weekly, on 

occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
