Shaheerah,

The “SEE NOTE” language on this line is a vestige of a past version of the O&M manual and refers to a procedural

requirement that no longer exists. You may find a similar notation on L4‐T1 for the HOS‐4 compressor as well. It is also

obsolete.

Dwight,

Thanks again for your previous response.

I have another question. The Aerial C‐5 Level 4 Intermediate Intervention contains a statement that says “SEE NOTE”.

What does “SEE NOTE” refer to? Please clarify what “SEE NOTE” is referring to so I can include the appropriate

reference.

Subject: Question re MCU Lifecycle Maintenance Plan 

Dwight,

  

The following information was contained in the Lifecycle Maintenance Plan (attachment #1 of Appendix A) for

compressors HOS‐6, HOS‐4, and Aerial C‐5. However, it was removed from the most recent revised version you sent me.

Is this information needed from the proper operation of the compressors? Please verify whether or not it is still

applicable and needs to be in the Lifecycle Maintenance Plan. Thanks.  

  

LIFE CYCLE MAINTENANCE PLAN 

The following pages describe the Level 1 tasks performed by the plant operators during each shift.

Critical monitoring devices for pressure, temperature, level, and vibration are equipped with High and HighHigh alarms. 

High alarms warn operators of a process malfunction allowing operators to troubleshoot the process for 

operational or mechanical malfunctions. Operational problems are corrected by an operator allowing equipment 

to continue operating. Mechanical problems that can be easily repaired by the operator are 

repaired. Mechanical problems that cannot be repaired by the operator are communicated to the supervisor on 

duty and a decision is made to either shut down that piece of equipment or to continue running, depending on 

the criticality of the equipment and/or the severity of the malfunction, until repairs can be made. Monitoring 

frequency of the equipment will be increased, again depending on the criticality of the equipment or the severity 

of the malfunction until repairs can be made.

High-High alarms will automatically shut down equipment ensuring the safety of personnel, preventing damage 

to equipment, and minimizing impact on the environment. The supervisor on duty is notified of a shutdown and 

a decision is made whether to repair immediately, depending on day (weekend, weekday), time of day (night 

tour or day tour) availability of parts and personnel necessary to perform repairs, in order to minimize impact on 

the environment.
