Project 282: Project 282: Guidelines for Investigating Chemical Process Incidents, 3rd Ed.

This project will be the 3rd edition of the Guidelines for Investigating Chemical Process Incidents book and updated the previous 2003 edition. This book will focus on investigating process-related incidents with real or potential catastrophic consequences.

Issues related to preservation and control of an accident scene, collecting and documenting evidence, and maintaining a chain of custody will be addressed in this edition. Identifying root causes, working with multiple regulatory agencies (CSP, OSHA, EPA, BATF, etc.), dealing with the 24/7 news cycle, and providing litigation support will also be discussed in the updated book.
