Project 112: Process Safety Incident Database (PSID)

To operate an easily accessible secure database for sharing incident information among members with a focus on the lessons learned from the incident. The PSID "Committee" is comprised of representatives from only paying member companies. Only manufacturing companies are eligible to join. A separate membership and set of obligations from regular CCPS membership is required because of the confidentiality of the data. Membership pricing is very reasonable and includes access for every employee of the company joining if approved by that company’s PSID Administrator.

Project 18: Process Equipment Reliability Database (PERD)

To develop and operate a pilot database of operating company reliability data to aid in process safety and maintenance evaluations. Once pilot database is proven, expand to a full database of maintenance and reliability data for equipment in the Chemical Processing Industry and Hydrocarbon Processing Industry.

Project 219: Process Safety Moments Presentations

Create a library of short (1 to 4 slide) PowerPoint files. This will allow for easy sharing and presentation. Other media such as video clips (embedded in PowerPoint presentations) or podcasts would be considered. Another potential idea is to have TSC members record the moments to provide a personalized, reality feel. The material topic and/or intended audience would influence the media selection: i.e. PowerPoint (printouts) for a toolbox meeting v. podcasts for a business leader focused Process Safety Moment.

Project 72: Safety and Chemical Engineering Education (SACHE)

SAChE is a standing CCPS subcommittee responsible for: Evaluating requests for CCPS to participate in other organizations’ events or projects, identifying how CCPS would participate, and recruiting volunteers or identifying staff to support these activities.

Project 248: Tools for Acute Risk Decisions, 2nd Edition

This project is concerned with risk decision making. It is possible that this will end up being a concept book. It should address risk decision making at all levels of the organization and describe methods and tools which can be applied to different types of risk information and risk studies, including considerations of uncertainty.

Project 246: Guidelines for Facility Siting and Layout, 2nd Edition

This project would revise and update the current CCPS publication “Guidelines for Facility Siting and Layout”, including information on occupied portable buildings, facility and plant layout. Reference documents would include but not limited to API 752 and 753 as well as OSHA/EPA interpretation letters and recently published CCPS books touching on this subject.
