What controls are available to mitigate risk?
-
Following lock out/tag out procedures; isolate and/or depressurize equipment prior to beginning work
-
Use of blinds and skillets for isolation of pressure
-
Designing and installing facilities that allow isolation and depressurizing; use bleed valves and pressure relief valves
