CHEMICAL SAFETY AND HAZARD 

INVESTIGATION BOARD 

Draft Investigation Report—DuPont 

Belle; Public Comment Requested 

In connection with its investigation 

into three incidents that occurred at the 

DuPont plant in Belle, West Virginia, 

within a 48 hour period on January 22 

and 23, 2010, the U.S. Chemical Safety 

Board (CSB) announces that it is seeking 

public review and comment on its draft 

investigation report on these incidents. 

The draft report will be posted on the 

CSB Web site on July 7, 2011, and will 

be available for review and comment 

until 5 p.m. on August 22, 2011. 

Comments should preferably be sent by 

e-mail to dupontcomments@csb.gov 

following the directions for submitting 

comments provided on the CSB Web 

site (http://www.csb.gov.). Comments 

may also be sent to CSB Headquarters 

(see address and name below). All 

comments received are considered 

public documents and will be available 

for public review either at CSB 

Headquarters or by following directions 

posted on the CSB Web site. 

By Notation Item #862, the Board 

unanimously voted to: (a) Publish the 

draft report on the DuPont-Belle 

incidents on the CSB’s Web site (clearly 

marked as ‘‘Staff draft for public 

comment’’ and ‘‘Subject to change, 

approval, or disapproval by the Board’’) 

and publicize its availability; (b) 

provide a period of forty-five (45) 

calendar days to receive public 

comment in response to the draft 

investigation report; and (c) consider all 

comments received prior to approval 

and publication of the final 

investigation report on the DuPont-Belle 

incidents. 

The three separate incidents at the 

DuPont plant involved releases of 

methyl chloride, oleum, and phosgene, 

and all three triggered notification of 

outside emergency response agencies. 

The incident involving the release of 

phosgene gas led to the fatal exposure 

of a worker performing routine duties in 

an area where phosgene cylinders were 

stored and used. Key issues involved in 

the three investigations include safe 

process design, mechanical integrity, 

alarm management, operating

procedures, and company emergency 

response and notification procedures. 

Following the close of the public 

comment period, the draft report may be 

modified based on comments received 

and other staff investigative activities. A 

final report will then be presented to the 

Board for its consideration and final 

vote. Only after the report is approved 

by the Board will the investigation into 

the three incidents at the DuPont facility 

be considered closed.

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 Institute of 

Standards and Technology (NIST). 

Title: Usage of Elevators for Occupant 

Evacuation Questionnaire. 

OMB Control Number: None. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular submission 

(new information collection). 

Burden Hours: 375. 

Number of Respondents: 1,500. 

Average Hours per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Needs and Uses: NIST’s research on 

elevators has primarily focused on the 

technical aspects of ensuring safe and 

reliable evacuation for the occupants of 

tall buildings. In addition, the 

International Code Council and the 

National Fire Protection Association 

provide requirements for the use of 

elevators for both occupant evacuation 

and fire fighter access into the building. 

However, there still is little 

understanding of how occupants use 

elevator systems during fire 

emergencies. 

The main focus of this research effort 

is to gain an understanding of how 

elevators are currently used by 

occupants of existing multi-story 

buildings in the United States during 

fire emergencies. This research aims to 

summarize emergency plans and 

procedures from buildings that make 

use of one or multiple elevators from the 

existing elevator system (used for 

normal building traffic) for the 

evacuation of building occupants during 

fire emergencies. Building managers and 

designated safety personnel (familiar 

with or in charge of developing 

emergency procedures for multi-story 

buildings) from existing buildings in the 

United States, including federal 

buildings, will be contacted to fill out a 

questionnaire asking about how the 

buildings’ evacuation plans incorporate 

the use of the existing elevator system 

to evacuate occupants during fire 

emergencies, specifically individuals 

with disabilities, if at all. 

Affected Public: Federal government; 

Business or other for-profit 

organizations. 

Frequency: One-time. 

Respondent’s Obligation: None. 

OMB Desk Officer:. Jasmeet Seehra,

collection proposal can be obtained by

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent
