General
1. Have all assigned MOC steps
prior to PSSR on MOC/ Project
been addressed?

been checked to ensure that it is
consistent with the P&IDs and all
design specifications?
3. Was a Risk Review been
performed for new or significantly
modified facilities, using
appropriate methodology?
4. Has the Safety Case been
referenced versus the proposed
change to determine if the change
would inadvertently disable/d
defeat any existing safeguards?
5. Have all action items from the
Safety and Health Review, PHA
etc., been resolved?
6. Are utility systems isolated from
process systems? Are flanges or
blinds inserted, check valves
closed, circuit breakers open?
7. All mechanical tools/equipment
not required by the design or for
operations has been removed (i.e.
tarps, hoses, tools, welding
machines, etc.)
8. All combustible material
removed (i.e. scaffold boards,
tarps, plastic, trash, etc.)
9. QA/QC documentation reviewed
and complete.
