    Purpose

    The purpose of this mechanical integrity program is to ensure that the handling and storage of
    regulated chemicals and associated safety systems are maintained properly. This program is
    geared towards preventing an accidental release of a chemical and minimizing the consequences
    if a release does occur. The emphasis of this program is on preventive and predictive
    maintenance rather than breakdown maintenance.

    This document summarizes how Inland Star Distribution Centers, Inc. complies with the mechanical
    integrity requirements for the storage of hazardous chemicals.

    Responsibilities

    The General Manager, Operations is responsible for the following activities:

    • Ensuring there are written procedures to maintain the equipment and associated safety
    systems.
    • Ensuring the routine maintenance inspections are completed.
    • Responding to all employee observations and notifications concerning faulty
    containers/storage in a timely manner.

    Components of the Mechanical Integrity Plan


    Scope
    Inland Star Distribution Centers, Inc. has established this mechanical integrity plan for all equipment
    and system components that contain a hazardous chemical, plus those key support or utility
    systems and equipment which are considered critical to the safe storage of hazardous chemicals.

    Training Program
    There is no maintenance required for the storage of hazardous chemical storage containers.
    However, Associates periodically evaluate all areas of the warehouse via walkthroughs noting
    any package/storage failures. Refer to the Training section of this PSM/CalARP Program for
    information on the training provided to the Associates.

    Written Inspection Procedures


    There are designated Associates for each area within the warehouse. It is the Associate’s
    responsibility to routinely walk their respective area noting any variances in chemical inventory,
    assess for damage, and inspection of overall cleanliness. In the event a discrepancy is found,
    immediate action is taken.

    Maintenance and Inspection Tasks


    There is no maintenance required on hazardous chemical storage containers, therefore,
    procedures are not applicable. However, Associates periodically evaluate all areas of the
    warehouse via walkthroughs noting any package/storage failures. In addition, a “RECEIVED
    Damage/WHSE Damage” form is completed either initially upon arriving at the facility or while in
    storage in the event damage is noted. See the facility “Receiving Process” and “Damaged
    Inventory Process” written policies.

    Procedures for Addressing Equipment Deficiencies


    In the event any deficiencies in the storage of hazardous chemicals are identified during system
    walkthroughs, during scheduled maintenance and inspection tasks, or during a review of the
    mechanical integrity program should be corrected before further use unless alternate safety
    measures are implemented before continued operation of the equipment in question.

    When a deficiency is discovered, a record describing the deficiency and the measures taken to
    correct the deficiency is documented on the “RECEIVED Damage/WHSE Damage” form.

    Quality Assurance Program


    See the corporate policy “Inventory Control Policy” which is maintained by the Director of EHS3.
