EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Accidental Release Prevention and Emergency Response Policies
'Pillsbury Bakeries and Fo°dservice (Pillsbury) utilizes anhydrous ammonia in the
refrigeration system at their Bakersfield production facility. It is Pillsbury's policy
to comply With all. applicable'governmental regulations. Further, it is Pillsbury's
objective .to be a responsible citizen of the community in all of its business
activities.'
Pillsbury emphasizes safe and environmentally sound operating practices and
· procedures through their employee training programs. In addition to job. specific
training, operators and maintenance personnel receive training in accident
prevention, safety, and first aid. Additionally, an emergency action plan has been
prepared for Pillsbury and a chain of command to respond to emergencies has
been established.
Pillsbury has developed a detailed Compliance Audit Checklist which is used to
evaluate compliance with the Process Safety Management (PSM) and 40 CFR
Part 68 (RMP regulations). At least every three years, Pillsbury will audit these
programs and any findings of noncompliance will be documented and responded
to and the deficiencies will be corrected.
Description of the Stationary Source and Regulated Substances
Pillsbury owns and operates a bakery products production facility located at 6800
McDivitt Drive in Bakersfield, California. The plant began operation in July, 1991.
The refrigeration system was upgraded in 1992.
The ammonia based refrigeratiOn system at Pillsbury provides cooling for the
process equipment and finished product storage and handling areas. The major
components Of the refrigeration system are the booster compressors, intercooler,
high stage compressors, evaporative condensers, thermosyphon receiver,
controlled pressure receiver, glycol chiller, process water chiller, evaporators,
and a suction accumulator. The system is also equipped.with an air purger, oil
drain pot, emergency ventilation system, and an emergency refrigeration control
box which discharges to a scrubber tank.
During normal operation, the anhydrous ammonia is distributed throughout the
refrigeration system. However, during major maintenance activities, the entire
refrigeration system can be "pumped down" to evacuate the ammonia from the
system and store it in the controlled pressure receiver. The maximum quantity of
ammonia that can be stored in the controlled pressure receiver is approximately
17,700 Pounds.
For purposes of the offsite consequence analyses, the RMP regulations define
the toxic endpoint for anhydrous ammonia as 0.14 mg/I (200'ppm). This
concentration has been established by the 'American Industrial Hygiene
Association as the Emergency Response Planning Guideline Level'2 (ERPG-2).
ERPG-2 is the maximum airborne concentration below which it is believed that
nearly all individuals' could be exposed for up to one hour without experienCing or
developing irreversible or other serious 'health effects or symptoms which could
impair an individual's.ability to take protective action.
Worst-Case Release Scenario'and Alternative Release Scenario
Offsite consequence'analyses are used as tools to assist in emergency response
planning. The RMP regulations require the owner or operator of a stationary
source to analyze the offsite impacts due to an accidental release of a regulated
substance. The offsite consequence analysis for a Program 3 process must
analyze' the worst-case release scenario and an alternative release scenario.
Since Pillsbury's ammonia-based refrigeration system is considered a Program 3
process, both release scenarios were evaluated in the offsite consequence
a~nalysis..
The offsite consequence analysiS must include an estimate of the residential
population within an area potentially affected by the accidental release scenario.
'This area is defined as a circle with a radius equivalent to the distanCe the
release would travel with concentrations at or ab°ve the endpoint. The circle
also defines the area in which potential environmental receptors must be
identified.
The worst case release is defined by the U.S. EPA as the total release of the'
contents of the single largest vessel or pipe within 10 minutes. For liquefied
gases stored under pressure, the entire contents of the vessel or pipe are
assumed to be released as a.vapor. A total vapor release is highly unlikely.
However, this standardized worst case scenario was ~ developed for.emergency
response agencies to use for planning purposes.
An alternative release scenario, is a release that is more likely to occur than the
worst-case release scenario. For Pillsbury, the alternative release scenario was
selected based on the results of the Process Hazard Analyses (PHAs) for the
ammonia-based refrigeration system. A credible release event with a high
discharge rate would potentially have the greatest offsite impact. A leak from a
valve packing was identified in the PHAs as having a medium probability of
occurrence with a.discharge rate high enough.to cause an offsite impact, and
therefore, was chosen as the alternative release scenario. ~
PillSbury has analyzed the offsite consequences of the worst-case and
alternative release scenarios. For the worst-case release scenario, the release
of approximately 17,700 lbs. of ammonia over a 10 minute perlod within the
engine room, the plume would travel 1.2 miles at concentrations at or above the
endpoint. Sensitive receptor information is provided in the RMP*Submit. Using
1990 Census data, the population pOtentially affected within the worst-case
release scenario circle is 13,000 people. There are no environmental reCeptors
within the worst case release scenario circle.
In-the alternative release scenario, a packing leak from an isolation valve located
Outdoors on the roof was modeled as a release of liquefied ammonia stored
under pressure. For a release of 22 Ib/min of anhydrous ammonia,, the model
calculated that the plume would travel' less than 0.1 mile at concentrations at or
above the endpoint. The alternative release scenario circle includes the nearby
industrial facilities and roadways.
No residences are located within the 0.1 mile radius of the location of the
alternative release at the Pillsbury faCility. As such, there would be no population
impacts from the alternatiVe release scenario. There were also no sensitive
receptors or environmental receptors within the alternative release scenario
circle. ~..
The ammonia refrigeration equipment is located within buildings except for a few
pipelines and isolation valveslocated on the roof. Even without consideration of
the emergency ventilation and scrubbing systems, the potential impact from a
release within a building would be greatly reduced according to EPA's Offsite
Consequence Analysis Guidance. If a release were to occur in the engine room,
the emergency ventilation and scrubbing systems would further reduce any
potential offsite impacts. The modeling performed for the worst-case release
scenario includes a mitigation factor'which assumes that the release is within an
enclosed space, in direct contact with the outside air.
General Accidental Release Prevention Program and Chemical-Specific
Prevention Steps -~
A PSM program, which meets the requirements of the general accidental release
prevention program, has been develOped at Pi!lsbury~to address the anhydrous
ammonia system. The PSM program includes the following chemical-specific
prevention steps:
Written process safety information, including information pertaining to the.
hazards of ammonia; the technology of the process, and the equipment in
the process has been compiled. ,
An initial Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) Was performed and will be
updated and revalidated at least every five years.
Written operating procedures have been developed and implemented,.and
are reviewed at least annually.
Safe work practices, Such as Iockout/tagout, confined space entry,
opening process equipment or piping, and control over entrance into the
facility have been developed and implemented.
Each employee involved in operating the ammonia.system has received
initial training and refresher training at least every three years.
Written mechanical integrity procedures have been established 'and
implemented.
A Management of Change (MOC) program has been developed and
implemented to address all proposed changes to the ammonia system.
Pre-startup safety reviews are performed when a modification is made to
the ammonia system that is significant enough to require a change in the
process safety infOrmation. ..
Audits are conducted at least every three years to evaluate compliance
with the PSM and RMP regulations.
InCident investigation procedures have been established.
A written plan of action regarding the implementation of employee
participation has been developed and implemented.
Hot work permits are issued for all hot work operations conducted on or
near the ammonia system.
Contractor Safety Policy has been developed and implemented.
T° ensure that the general accidental release prevention program and the
chemical-specific prevention steps are implemented, Pillsbury has assigned
overall responsibility for the RMP elements to the Plant Manager. The Plant
Manager has the overall responsibility for the development, implementation, and
integration of the RMP elements.
Five-Year Accident History
Pillsbury has not had any accidental releases from the ammonia-based
refrigeration system that have resulted in deaths, injuries, or significant property
damage on site, or known offsite deaths,'injuries,~.evacuations, sheltering in
place, property damage, or environmental' damage in the last five years.
Emergency Response Program
Pillsbury has established an emergency action plan and a chain of command to
respond to emergencies and to notify emergency responders when thera is a
need for a responSe. However, an emergency response.program does not need
to be developed for the facility since Pillsbury employees will not respond to
accidental releases of ammonia, the facility is included' in the community
emergency response plan, and appropriate mechanisms are in place to notify
emergency responders.
Planned Changes To Improve Safety
Based on the PHA revalidation performed in June, 1999, no changes were
recommended.
Through the accidental release prevention program, Pillsbury regularly evaluates
the need for any changes to improve Safety. Currently, Pillsbury does not have
any additional changes Planned to improve safety.

REQUEST FOR CITY ATTORNEY OPINION RE: RMP NOTICE'
Having reviewed your memorandum of February 2, 1999, and the statutory and
regulatory provisions attached thereto, I am of the opinion that your use of the phrase.
"probable candidate to be subject to the new California Accidental Release Program
(CalARP)" does not invalidate the intent to provide notice to the subject facility of the
requirement to prepare an RMP. Having reviewed both the Health and Safety Code
provisions involved and the California Code of Regulations provisions, it is apparent to me
that the subject notice is more than adequate and that compliance can be expected from
the subject entity.

Refrigeration Flow CYcle
Ammonia· gas: from the low'suCtion, accumulator (LSA-1)enters the boostercompressors (BC-1 &2).
where the refrigerant is drawn axially; compressed,and goes tot he oil separator as a mixture of gas and
oil The oil seParator entrains.the oil and discharge gas leaves the oil separator and goes to the intercooler
(IC: 1). where the refrigerant is desuperheated and cooled to ,el 0 DF. ·
An intermediate press. Corresponding to 10 DF in the intercooier (IC-1) is a mixture of liquid and
ammonia gas. Liquid'level is Controlled by a level switch that energizes a solenoid valve and allowing the
refrigerant to flow from the thermosyphon receiver (TSR-1), (Operating levels will be discussed more
under control strategy). Desuperheated gas from the top of the intercooler (IC-1) tra{,els to the high stage
compressors (HS-i & 2)to be comPressed to the condenser pressure. Refrigerant is then cooled to a
saturated liquid and drains back to the thermosyphon receiver (TSR-1).
The thermosyphon receiver (TSR 1) acts as a supply tank of liquid refrigerant for the compressor oil
coolers to maintain operating oil' temperature. In addition, thermosYPhon receiver insures liquid supply.to
the plate heat exchanger (I-IX-2), glycol heat exchanger (HX-1), make-uP liquid to the intercooler (IC-1)
and controlled pressure receiver (CPR-1).. Flow to the controlled pressure receiver (CPR'I) will.only be
allowed if the level inside the thermosyphon receiver (TSR-!) raises beyond 6" which will open a pilot
operated valve, (PRV-5) controlled by a pilot float valve. The liquid which flows to the controlled
pressure receiver has its pressure reduced to a pressure equal to +17 DF. The liquid that is flashed flows
through a pressure regulator (PRV-3) will pressurize the controlled pressure receiVer to maintain
recompressed by the high stage compressors (HS-1 & 2). The subcooled liquid is then drawn to the
storage freezer coils and the spiral freezer coils at a 1 V,: 1 liquid overfeed ratio.
Refrigerant suction. (LTRS) from the storage freezer and spiral freezer enters the suction accumulator
(LSA:I) as a liquid and gas mixture. Refrigerant gas at -40 DF goes to the booster cOmpressor
(BC:I & 2) for compression; while liquid refrigerant flows by gravity to the dump trap (DT-1) located
below the suction accumulator (LSA-1).
The dump trap (DT-1) isa transfer tank that collects the liquid which settles at the bottom of the suction
accumulator (LSA-1). After the liquid in the dUmp trap (DT-1).raises by' more than two-thirds, a level
sWitch is energized, which energizes thethree-way.solenoid:. The three-way solenoid which acts normally ....
as an equalizing line to the Suction accumulator .(LSA-!) becomes the hot gas' line Pressurize the dump
trap(T-1). Once the pressure of the dump trap builds up above the controlled pressure receiver (CPR-1),
the liquid'will transfer to the controlled pressure receiver. A field set timer will then shut off'the three-
way solenoid and liquid will once again drain to the dump trap (D. T2I) frOm the suction accumulator
(LSA-1)

Section 1 - Alarms
Refrigeration control Strategy
A. Low Suction Accumulator High Level
If the liquid level in the low suction accumulator reaches the high level float switch (LSHH-3) it sends a
signal to the controller. After a 10 second delay the booster'compressors will Shut down and will not
restart without manually resetting each booster compressor. After the float· Switch opens, the reset button.
at the main control panel Will clear the alarm horn and pilot light: Once the alarm has been cleared the
booster compressors may be manually reset at the compressor control panels. 'There will be n° indication
at 'the compressor control· Panel to show high level shut down as this is indicated by the pilot' light at the.
main control Panel..
B. Intercooler High Level ...
If the liquid level in the intercooler reaches the high level float switch (LSHH-1) it sends a signal to the
· cOntroller. This immediately shuts down the high stage compressors which will nOt restart until they have
been manually reset. After the high level float sWitch opens, the reset button at the main control panel
· will clear the alarm horn and pilot light. Once the alarm has·been cleared the high stage compressors may
be reset at the compressor control panels. It should be noted that if the booster compressors are running in
the remote mode'while an intercooier high level shut down occurs they will shut off until the high stage
compressors restart. The booster Compressors will restart automatically· after the high stage compressors
have run for at least 1 minute. When a high intercooler level shut down occurs, there will be no indication
at the c°mpressor panels as this is. indicated by a pilot light at the main control panel.
C. · Intercooler Low Level ·
If the liquidlevel in the intercooler drops below the lOw level flOat switch (LSLL-1) it sends a signal to
the controller. At' this time the alarm horn and the low level pilot light are energized. When the liquid
level rises above the float sWitch, the alarm may be cleared .bY pressing the alarm reset button at the main
control panel
D. Interc0oler Transfer
If the liquid level in the intercooler reaches the transfer float switch (LSH-1) it sends a Signal to the
controller. At this time the transfer sOlenOid valve opens, and returns liquid to the accumulator (LSA-1)
until the float switch opens. When the float sWitch opens the solenoid closes but the transfer' pilot stays
on until the alarm reset button on the main control'panel is.pressed.
E.' . Compressor Failure Alarms
If any compressor shuts down due to a safety failure it will indicate by energizing the proper pilot light at
the main control panel as well. as the alarm horn. The compressor failure switches must be in the normal
(on) position at all times. If the switches 'are turned off it will disable all compressor alarm functions
including by-passing high leyel safety shut down. In addition to disabling the alarm functions leaving the
switches in the off position can cause the sygtem to defrost or.feed liqfiid to the evaporators even after a -
compressor failure. The failure by-pass switches are °nly used for intentional, shut down of the .'
compressors.
F. Horn Switch and Alarm Reset ' '
When an alarm occurs the'horn Switch ma7 be turned to "silence" until.the alarm Can be cleared. If the
alarm switch is left in the "Silence'' pOsition after an alarm'is cleared, the horn will sound again unti! the
Switch is retUrned to the "horn" position. UPon Power failure to the control system, it may be necessary
to reset the alarm system. It may' also be necessary to reset each of the compressors if the compressor
Control power is also lost. After any Power failure it should be noted that. the compressors. . may_., not
sequence back on properly and Th'Corn shoUld be notified-immediately.
Section 2 - Spiral Blast Freezer sYStem
A... Cooling Mode. '::
To activate the refrigeratiOn to either of the spiral freezers requires that the fan switch adjacent tot each
~;piral is turned On. If the fans start, the fan pilot light will energize. With the fans running and the
thermostat calling for cooling,' the liquid solenoids will energize along with the "Refrigeration'"pilot light.
The liquid solenoids will.shut off it the thermostat Satisfies or if the fans .go off during this time. If both"
of the high stage compressors should shut down during the cooling mode it will causethe liquid solenoids
t° close along with the "Refrigeration"-pilot light to go out.
Bi Defrost Mode
To initiate a defrost, the manual defrost push button must be activated. At this time if a defrost is ·
possible, the defrost pilot light will come on. If the pilot light does not come on, it means that a defrost is
not possible at this time due to another zOne already being in defrosL During the first part of the defrost
(approx.' 6 minutes) the fan switch must be 6n and the fans allowed to run. When the fan pilot light goes
off then the fan switch may~be turned 0ffifyou do not'wish for the spiral to return to the cooling mode :at'
the end of the defrost. At the end of the fan delay period,' the hot gaS solenoid for the first halfofthe coil
will energize along with the pilot suction stop solenoid. The hot gas will remain on to the first half of the
coil for the length of time set on the hot gas timer located in the main control panel in the compressor
room. At the end of this Period the timer resets and starts again for the same period. This causes the hot
gas solenoid for the second half of the coil to open and the hot. ga.s solenoid for the first half to close.
At the end of the time period, the secOnd hot gas solenoid closes and 'the suction Stop valves 'reopen to
equalize the coil pressure with the plant suction pressure for approximately 3 minutes. When the pressure
equalization period is over, the liquid solenoids open 10 seconds prior to the fans restaxt, ing if the fan
switch is left on. During the defrost cycle on either spiral freezer the liquid solenoids for all 3 evaporators
in the storage freezer are forced on even if' the storage freezer thermostat is satisfied. This provides
enoUgh' load for the hot gas required {o defrost the spiral coils. If either spiral freezer.is in the defrost
mode it will not allow any other zone to defrost at the same time. This means that if a defrost is
scheduled by the controller for one of the.evaporators in the storage .freezer at this time it will be skipped.
Care should be taken t° prevent defrosting a spiral coil during the time when a scheduled defrost is to take
place in the storage freezer. Tri-Com will provide a schedule of the automatic defrost times for the
storage freezer.
C. Spiral Shut Down Procedure
Prior to shutting offthe refrigeration at the end of the production, the spiral freezer should be defrosted.
If possible leave the storage freezer in Cooling while the other is in defi'ost to provide additional load and
prevent autOmatic shut down of the booster compressor sequencer. If the spiral freezer fan switches
remain off for more than 15 minutes, the booster sequencer system shuts off the large booster compressOr
and allows the small booster to run on local Control. This provides for low I°ad conditions and weekend
operation at a higher suction pressure for increased efficiency. After the spiral is shut off, the'evaporator
cgil should be inspected'to insure that it is completely defrosted. If necessary the hot gas timer'may be
adjusted for a longer time to allow total removal of frost. '
Section'3 - Storage Freezer Refrigeration System
A." CoolingMode · · .
Each of the 3 evaporators in the storage freezer (AU-:~, 3 & 4) have control switches at the main control
panel. The sWitches provide for the 'shUt down, aut° defrost, or manual defrost of each evaporator
. individually: By placing the control ' switch in the "auto" position, the evaporator will remain in the
cooling mode and the fans will mn continuouSly until a defrost cycle is initiated bYthe controller. During
the Cooling cycle the liqUid' solenoids are controlled by the freezer thermostat. If the thermostat satisfies
the liquid solenoids will close unless the spiral or any one of the ·3 evaporators in the freezer starts a
defrost cycle. If any zone starts a defrost cycle it will override the thermostat and force open theliquid
· "solenoids to the remaini.ng evaporat'ors in the freezer.to provide additional load.
B.· Defrost Mode
Defrosting of the freezer evaporators can Occur manually or automatically via the controller. The
controller uses an internal clock function to time between defrost intervals. The time of day and the
number of defrosts per day can be adjusted to suit the needs of each evaporator. If any zone is already in
defrost, no other 'zone can be defrosted at the same time~ This means that if a spiral or storage freezer
zone is manually defrosted during the time that the controller calls for an automatic defrost the auto
defrost will be skipped. When a defrost is initiated, the defrost pilot light will come On and the liquid
solenoid for the proper zone will close. At this time the refi'igeration pilot will go out and the fans will
Continue to nm for approximately 4 minutes. The fans will now shut offalong with the fan pilot light. At
this time the hot gas solenoid will energize and the Suction pressure 'regulator solenoid Will turn off
allowing the regulator t° raise to the defrosf pressure setting..The hot gas.solenoid will 'stay energized for
the length of time set on the hot gas timer located in the main control panel. At the end of the hot gas
time, the suction' pressure regulator Will open and equalize the pressure for 10 seconds. Following ·
pressure equalization, the.liquid Solenoid will reopen and precool.the coil for approximately 2 minutes.
At the end of the precool, period, the fans will restart if the switch is in the "auto mode.
It should be noted that if any zone Starts a defrost cycle.and the high stage compressors are in the remote
run mode but the sequencer has cycled them off, compressor # 1 will be forced to nm to provide hot gas
for defrosting. "
Section 4- High Stage Compressor Sequencer .~
The intermediate suction pressure is controlled by a floating point p,ressure sWitch (PS-2) located adjacent
to thc main. contrOl panel. The pressure switch sends a load signal to the controller.if the suction pressure
is above set point. If the suction pressure remains in thc "dead.band" no signal is sent to thc controller. If
'the Suction pressure falls b'elOw the set polnt~ the pressure switch sends an unload signal~to the controller.
Upon receiving a load signal from the pressure switch, the controller initiates a 30 second delay timer. If
the load signal remains constant beyond the 30 second delay, it pulses an internal counter and sends a start
signal ~to # 1 high stage compressor if a "compressor ready" signal is sent from the compressor to the
controller: Thc compressor ready signal is only outputted from the compressor if the compressor if the
compressor control circuit is reset, it is in the remote, rUn mode, and the anti-recycle timer is reset. If the
Compressor'ready signal and the load signal.remain constant, the sequencer continues to Pulse the internal
coUriter'and begins to send. 5 second load pulses tO the compressor and causes the electric valVe actuator
to move thc slide valve and load uP the machine. The sequencer will send a 5 second pulse every 30
'seconds until there is no longer a load signal or the counter'reaches a value that allows the # 1 compressor
to beat maximum load. If the sequencer continues to receive a 10ad signal, it will start # 2 high stage
comPressor after approximately a 3 minute delay and only if a "ready signal" is sent to the controller, from
# ~2 compressor. Thc'# 2 high stage compressor will continue to 10ad every' 30 seconds for a period of 5
seconds if thc load signal remains'on. If at any time.dUring this cycle the suction pressure drops.below
the load Set Point, the counter will stop and hold the present value. If the load signal is.again' sent to the
.controller, it will wait throi~gh another 30 second delay period to loading the compressors.
The Compressors unload in the same manner as abOve when a signal to Unload remains constant for more
· than the 30 Second delay~ If # 1 and # 2 high stage compressors arc both rUnning, the sequencer will
c0mplctelY unload # 2 compressor and thenturn it off prior to a 3 minute delay before it starts to unload
the'# 1 compressor.' The unload signal pulses down the counter as well as unloading the compressors
until the counter reaches a minimum value which shuts off the #' 1 compressor. If at any time during the
unioad.cycle the suction pressure raises aboVe the unload set point and then thcunload signal is again sent
to thc Controller, it will wait through a 30 second delay before unloading.
All internal timers are adjustable for the delaY'time as well as the load pulse and interval time. If the
# 2 high compressor is not in the remote mode the# 1 compressor will still function normally in thc
remote sequence mode. If the # 1 compressor is not in the remote mode °r fails alter having been started
in thc remote mode, then # 2 may rUn in the remote mode but 0nly after waiting through thc' normal time
to' load# 1 compressor to' 100%. The sequence counter will reset any time after a failure or if thc remote
switch is Placed back in the remote mode on compressor # 1~. This means that if compressor # 2 is
rx~nning and' comPressor # 1 is reset with the selector switch in the remOte mode, then #2'compressor will
turn off until it is called for by the sequencer alter # 1 compressor reaches 100% loaded.
To restart the system alter a compressor failure, push the stop button on compressor # 2 and then reset
-~ # 1 compi'essor with the selector switch in the remote mode. If the pressure switch is calling fora load'·
signal then the. time delay will activate and'restart compressor # 1. After # 1 compressor is reset in the
remote mode then # 2 may be reset and placed in thc remote mode. The compressors may.be switched to
local control at any time if necessary but should not be put back into'remote Without following the
procedure outlined above.
Section 5 'Booster CompressorSequencer
The' low temperature suction pressure 'is controlled by a floating point pressure switch (PS-1) located
adjacent tO the main control panel. This pressure switch functions in the main control panel. This
pressure swiich, functions in the Same manner 'as the PS-2 pressUre switch above. The. booster .
compressors are controlled in the same way as the high stage compressorS: All'features of the booster
sequencer apply as in the description 'of the high stage compressor sequencer with the exception of the
load pulse time. The load'pulse time is set at 3 seconds on and30 seconds between l°ad pulses. This
allows more time for the high' stage comPressors to load up and keep the intermediate, suction pressure.
stable:
During the time that the spiral-freezer is being used, the sequencer functions by starting and loading
# 1 .booster compressor first. If additional capacity is required, the #. 2. booster starts and loads ac-cording
to the same strategy as used in the high 'stage sequencer.
If the spiral fi-eezer is turned off for more than 15 minutes, the sequencer is overridden and # 1 b6oster
shuts off. At the time that # 1 .booster shuts off, booster # 2 changes back to local control even with the
selector switch in the remote position. This alloxvs booster # 2 to stop and start via the "HSP' and "LIP"
· switches located at the Sullair panel. 'This'allows the suction pressure to be maintained at ~20 DF (sSt)
during low. l°ad conditions which' will bemore energy efficient than the - 40DF (sst) required when the
Spiral freezer 'is in use.
10
Section 6 - Transfer System~ .Condenser and Purger Controls
'A. 'Phillips Transfer. SyStem :- ..
The Phillips Transfer System utilizes: gas, pressure to return liquid to the Controlled pressure receiver
(CPR-1) from the low suction accumulator (LSA-1). The gaS pressure differential must. be maintained by
running a high stage compressor. If a high stage compressor is not running the. transfer system is locked
out. During the time the that a high stage compressor is not running it is possible for a booster
compressor to run if it is'in the local mode. The boo'stet, compressor running will allow liquid to be pulled '
back from the system and fill the loW suction accumulator. If the transfer system is lockedout during this
time, it may cause a high level in the accumulator. If the system is allowed to run in the local mode, the
booster compressor should be shut .off when the high stage compressors are not running..
B. Condenser Controls
The Condenser pump is controlled by a "Hand-Off-Auto'' switch located in the main control panel. In the
'hand position the pump.will run continuously. If the switch is in the auto position, the pump will stop and
start with any of the compressors:
The condenser fan is controlled by a "Hand-Off.Auto'' switch located in the main control panel, in the
hand position the fan will nm. continuously in either high or low speed depending on the selector switch
setting df the "High-Low"'switch located on the door of the fan starter. If the fan is placed in the auto
position, it may only start if the'condenser Pump is ming. If the pump is running.and t. he fan control is'
in the auto position then a dual set point pressure switch (PS~3) located adjacent to the main 'control panel
.wil1 cycle the fan. The low speed fan will Start at approximately 155 psig discharge pressure. The low
.speed fan will continue to nm. until'the'discharge pressure'reaches approximately 175 psig. At 175 psig,
the high speed fan will start and nm until the pressure drops back to 1.70 psig.' At this point the high speed
fan will-turn offand a 6 second timer w~il start.. When 6 seconds'haVe elapsed the Iow speed fan will start
· and continue to run until the pressure drops below 150 psig. The 6 second delay timer is in effect
whenever the low speed fan starts.' There are pilot lights to indicate high and low speed fans aS well as the
condenser pump running.. ~
C. Purger "
The Hansen Automatic Purger requires high pressure.liquid to be Supplied to its coOling circuit.to oPerate.
The liquid feed solenoid is locked out if at least one high stage compressor is not running. This is to
insure a constant suppiy of liquid to the purger as well as insure gas flow through the condenser where the'
noncondensible gasses are remoVed:
11
SectiOn 7 - Miscellaneous
· The liquid feed solenoid On the intercooler requires that one of the.high stage compressors be running -
befOre it may energize. If the 0perating level float switch calls forAiquid, and a high stage compressor is'
running then the' feed solenoid may open.
A.circuit breaker panel in the motor control center provides ~ontrol power to the programmable Controller
as well as the compressors. ['here' are separate control transformers located in each starter cabinet fOr the.

Mitigation/Prevent/Abatemt
Release Prevention
An ammonia emergency control box is located northeast of the engine room. The thermosyphon receiver, low
suction accumulator, intercooler, and the controlled pressure receiver all have pressure lines which, are
connected to the control box. Inside the control box; valves connect each of these pressure lines to each other.
In the event of an overpressure situation in one of the systems, these valves can be operated to relieve the
pressure from the overpressured system and distribute it to one or more of the othei' systems. This balancing of
the pressures can be done without releasing ammonia to the atmosphere. Under an extreme overpressure
sitUation, such as a major fire, there is also an emergency dump valve that Will discharge the ammonia vapors to
~the scrubber tank. The pressure relief valves will also discharge ammonia into the scrubber tank automatically
if the system fails.
Release Containment
The engine room is equipped wlth an ambient ammonia sensor. If the ambient ammonia concentration in the' ·
engine room reaches 200 parts per million (ppm), the ammonia sensor will automatically start up the emergency
ventilation 'fan. The emergency ventilation fan will discharge the ammonia laden air from the engine room into
the evaporative condenser where the ammonia will be absorbed into the water at the same time the emergency
fan is activated, a three way valve will direct the blow down water from the evaporative condenser to a scrubber
tank filled with water. A circulation pump on the scrubber tank will also start and circulate water from the tank
'to the eVaPorative condenser. The emergency ventilation system can also be activated manually from outside
the engine room. A co,mpressor shut down switch, fan switch, and scrubber pump switch are located next to the
Scrubber tank inside th~ Control box.
Clean Up
If Pillsbury Bakeries & Foodservice has an ammonia release that activated the emergency ventilation system,
ammonium hydroxide will be formed as the evaporative condenser water cOntacts the anhydrous ammonia. The
ammonium hydroxide will be drained into the scrubber and will be contained on site and disposed of in
accordance with all local, state and federal requirements.

NOTICE OF RMP
AUDIT REQUIREMENT
UNDER CalARP REGULATIONS
Dear Mr. Rangaswamy:
As the operator of a facility subject to the California Accidental Release
Program (CalARP), you are being notified that, within the next 12 months,
this office will conduct an audit of the Risk Management Plan (RMP)
which your facility submitted in accordance with CalARP regulations.
The RMP audit will involve the following actiVities:
1. A pre-audit coordination meeting at the facility which will include a
review of supporting documentation related to the RMP, as well as
photographs to be taken by this office to document safety practices
and accidental release mitigation systems on site.
Pre-planning facility tours involving all three shifts of fire
department personnel likely to respond to any chemical emergency
at the site. One of these tours will necessarily involve a routine '
compliance inspection for all aspects related to the Unified Program
for hazardous materials and hazardous wastes, not just the RMP.
3. A written "Preliminary Determination" issued to the facility by this
office documenting the results of the RMP audit, including any
necessary revisions to the RMP to ensure compliance with CaIARP
regulations. The Preliminary Determination will include an
explanation of the basis for the revisions, if any, including a
timetable for their implementation.
An Audit Checklist is enclosed for your benefit. CaIARP regulatiOns
require that the facility itself perform its own audit at least once every three
years. By conducting and documenting your own RMP audit, you will
have satisfied not only a required RMP element, but will also have
adequately prepared for the forthcoming regulatory RMP audit to be
conducted by this office pursuant to this notice.
Please use this advance opportunity to help make the City of Bakersfield a
cleaner and Safer place in which to work and live.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARy
Accidental Release Prevention and Emergency Response Policies
Pillsbury Bakeries and Foodservice (Pillsbury) utilizes anhydrous ammonia' in the
refrigeration system at their Bakersfield production facility. It is Pillsbury's policy
to comply with all applicable governmental regulations. Further, it is Pillsbury's
objective to be a responsible citizen of the community in all of its business
activities.
Pillsbury emphasizes safe and environmentally sound operating practices and
procedures through their employee training programs. In addition to job specific
training, operators and maintenance personnel receive training in accident
prevention, safety, and first aid. Additionally, an emergency action Plan has been
prepared for Pillsbury and a chain of command to respond to emergencies has
been established.
Pillsbury has developed a detailed Compliance Audit Checklist which is used to
evaluate compliance with the Process Safety Management (PSM) and 40 CFR
Part 68 (RMP regulations). At least every three years, Pillsbury will audit these
programs and any findings of noncOmplianCe will be documented and responded
to and the~ deficiencies will be corrected.
Description of the Stationary Source and Regulated Substances
Pillsbury owns and operates a bakery products production facility located at 6800
McDivitt Drive in Bakersfieldl California. The plant began operation in July, 1991.
The refrigeration system was upgraded in 1992.
The ammonia based refrigeration system at Pillsbury provides cooling for the
process equipment and finished product storage and handling areas. The major
components of the refrigeration system are the booster compressors, intercooler,
high stage compressors, evaporative condensers,' thermosyphon receiver,
controlled pressure receiver, glycol chiller, process water chiller, evaporators,
and a suction accumulator. The system is also equipped with an air purger, oil
drain pot, emergency ventilation system, and an emergency refrigeratiOn control
box which discharges to a scrubber tank.
During normal operation, the anhydrous ammonia is distributed throughout the
refrigeration system. However, during major maintenance activities, the entire
refrigeration system can be "pumped down" to evacuate the ammonia from the
system and store it in the controlled pressure receiver. The maximum quantity of
'ammonia that can be stored in the controlled pressure receiver is approximately
17,700 pounds..
For purposes of the offsite consequence analyses, the RMP regulations define
.the toxic endpoint for anhydrous ammonia' as 0.14 mg/I (200 ppm). This
concentration has been established by the American Industrial Hygiene
Association as the Emergency Response Planning Guideline Level 2 (ERPG-2).
ERPG-2 is the maximum airborne concentration below which it is believed that
nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to one hour without experiencing or
developing irreversible or other serious health effects or symptoms which could
impair an individual's ability to take protective action.
Worst-Case Release Scenario and Alternative Release Scenario
Offsite consequence analyses are used as tools to assist in emergency response
planning. The RMP regulations require the owner or operator of a stationary
source to analyze the offsite impacts due to an accidental release of a regulated
substance. The offsite consequence analysis for a Program 3 process must
analyze the worst-case release scenario and an alternative release scenario.
Since Pillsbury's ammonia-based-refrigeration system is considered a Program 3
process, both release scenarios were evaluated in the offsite consequence
analysis. .
The offsite consequence analysis must include an estimate of the residential
population within an area potentially affected by the accidental release scenario.
This area is defined as a circle with a radius equivalent to the distance the
release would travel with concentrations at or above the endpoint. The circle
also defines the area in which potential environmental receptors must be
identified.
The worst case release is defined by the U.S. EPA as the total release of the
contents of the single largest vessel or pipe within 10 minutes. For liquefied
gases stored under pressure, the entire contents of the vessel or pipe are
assumed to be released as a vapor. A total vapor release is highly unlikely.
However, this standardized worst case scenario was developed for emergency
response agencies to use for planning purposes.
An alternative release scenario is a release that is more likely to occur than the
worst-case release scenario. For Pillsbury, the alternative release scenario was
selected based on the results of the Process Hazard Analyses (PHAs) for the
ammonia-based refrigeration system. A credible release event with a high
discharge rate would potentially have the greatest offsite impact. A leak from a
valve packing was identified in the PHAs as having a medium probability of
occurrence with a discharge rate high enough to cause an offsite impact, and
therefore, was chosen as the alternative release scenario.
Pillsbury has analyzed the offsite consequences of the worst-Case and
alternative release scenarios. For the worst-case release scenario, the release
of approximately 17,700 lbs. of ammonia Over a 10 minute period within the
engine room, the plume would travel 1.2 miles at concentrations at or above the
endpoint. Sensitive receptor information is provided in the RMP'Submit. Using
1990 Census data, the population potentially affected within the worst-case
release scenario circle is 13,000 people. There are no environmental receptors
within the worst case release scenario circle.
Ir~ the alternative release scenario, a packing leak from an isolation valve located
outdoors on the roof was modeled as a release of liquefied ammonia stored
under pressure. For a release of 22 Ib/min of anhydrous ammonia, the model
'calculated that the plume would travel less than 0.1 mile at concentrations at or
above the endpoint. The alternative release scenario circle includes the nearby
industrial facilities and roadways.
No residences are located within the 0.1 mile radius of the location of the
alternative release at the Pillsbury facility. As such, there would be no population
impacts from the alternative release scenario. There were also no sensitive
receptors -or environmental receptors within the alternative release scenario
circle.
The ammonia refrigeration equipment is located within buildings except for a few
pipelines and isolation valves located on the roof. Even without consideration of
the emergency ventilation and scrubbing systems, the potential impact from a
release within a building would be greatly reduced according to EPA's Offsite
Consequence Analysis Guidance. If a release were to occur in the engine room,
the emergency ventilation, and scrubbing systems would further reduce any
potential offsite impacts. The modeling performed for the worst-case release
scenario includes a mitigation factor'which assumes that the release is within an
enclosed space, in direct contact with the outside air.
General Accidental Release Prevention Program and Chemical-Specific
Prevention Steps
A PSM program, which meets the requirements of the general accidental release
prevention program, has been developed at Pillsbury to address the anhydrous
ammonia system. The PSM program includes the following chemical-specific
prevention steps:
Written process safety information, including information pertaining to the
hazards of ammonia, the technology of the process, and the equipment in
the process has been compiled.
An initial Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) was performed and will be
· updated and revalidated at least every five years.
Written operating procedures have been developed and implemented, and
are reviewed at least annually.
Safe work practices, such as lockout/ragout, confined space entry,
opening process equipment or piping, and control over entrance into the
facility have been developed and implemented.
Each employee involved in operating the ammonia system has received
initial training and refresher training at least every three years.
Written mechanical integrity procedures have been establiShed and
implemented.
A Management of Change (MOC) program has been developed and
implemented to address all proposed changes to the ammonia system.
Pre~startup safety reviews are performed when a modification is made to
the ammonia system that is significant enough to require a change in the
process safety information.
Audits are conducted at least every three years to evaluate compliance
with the PSM and RMP regulations.
Incident investigation procedures, have been established.
A written plan of action regarding the implementation of employee
participation has been developed and implemented.
Hot work permits are issued for all hot work operations conducted on or
near the ammonia system.
A Contractor Safety Policy has been developed and implemented.
To ensure that the general accidental release prevention program and the
chemical-specific prevention steps are implemented, Pillsbury has assigned
overall responsibility for the RMP elements to the Plant Manager. The Plant
Manager has. the overall responsibility for the development, implementation, and
integration of the RMP elements.
Five-Year Accident History
Pillsbury has not had any. accidental releases from the ammonia-based
refrigeration system that have resulted in deaths, injuries, or significant property
damage' on site, or known offsite deaths, injuries, evacuations, sheltering in
place, property damage, or environmental damage in the last five years.
Emergency, Response Program
Pillsbury has established an emergency action plan and a chain of command to
respond to emergencies and to notify emergency responders when there is a
need for a response. However, an emergency response program does not need
to be developed for'the facility since Pillsbury employees will not respond to
accidental releases of ammonia, the facility is included in the community
emergency response plan, and appropriate mechanisms are in place to notify
emergency responders.
Planned Changes To Improve Safety
Based on the PHA revalidation performed in June, 1999, no changes were
recommended.
Through the accidental release prevention program, Pillsbury regularly evaluates
the need for any changes to improve safety. Currently, Pillsbury does not have
any additional changes planned to improve safety.

Dear Ms. Kenfield:
I have reviewed your January 22, 1999 telephone conversation
with Mr. Howard Wines, concerning our "Notice of Risk Management
Plan Required by June 21, 1999." sent to Heinz Bakery Products, 6800
McDivitt Drive On June 17, 1998. I do understand your concern that this
notice is not valid because we identified your facility as a "probable"
candidate to be subject to the California Accidental Release Program
(CalARP). However, the City Attorney's Office finds, and I agree, that the
notice is valid. As required by California Regulations, the notice clearly
identifies your facility as a facility that is a probable candidate. Final
determination is based upon the quantity of a regulated substance that is
processed by a single stationary source at your site.
Howard Wines will continue to work with you and/or any local
staff representatives to assist you in meeting the June 21, 1999 deadline.
As I'm sure you kno~v, this June 21st deadline includes submission of your
R.M.P. information to U.S.E.P.A. As the local administering agency, a
copy of this information must also be submitted to this office by that date.
If I can be of any further assistance to you, please feel free to call
me or Mr. Wines at 661-326-3979.
Sincerely,
Office of Environmental Services

MEMORANDUM
DATE:
January 22, 1999
TO:
Ralph E. Huey, Director, Office of Environmental Services
FROM:
Howard H. Wines, IH, Hazardous Materials Specialist
SUBJECT: Request for City Attorney Opinion Regarding RMP NotiCe
Attached is a copy of the Certified letter which was mailed to Heinz Bakery. Heinz has been
subsequently purchased by Pilsbury. On January 19, 1999, I received a phone call from Carol
Kenfield of Pilsbury's Minneapolis, MN office, essentially contesting the validity of the notice.
Whether the phras,e,: _'probable candidate to be'subject to the new California Accidental Release':' :]:]: ]ii)~i~i:Qi:i?:]'
Program (CalARP) in any way invalidates the intent to provide notice to the facility of ' -. :";? ??~!:~i!!i:
requirements and deadlines contained therein (emphasis on orobablc added, as being'thc Crux: 6f::::~:?!!:.!:::(!i~!51ii!i-;:.
Ms. Kenfield's contention). " ' "':' ':':-'"' :"~':'""'"' :"
Section 25534 of the California Health and Safety COde States under subpart (a): .
For any stationary source with one or more covered processes, the administering
agency shall make a preliminary determination as to whether there is a significant
likelihoOd that the use:of regulated substances by a stationery source may pose a
regulated substances a'6cident risk.
California Code of Regulations (CCR), under Title 19 (TI9) which implement the Health and
Safety Code supra, are as follows: ,
Section 2735.4(a) AgglJ.c, lt.hil~
(2) If a stationary source has a process with more than a threshold quantity of a
regulated substance as listed in Table 3 of Section 2770.5, and the AA makes a
determination pursuant to Section 25534 of riSC that an RMP is required, the
owner or operator shall comply with the appropriate provisions of this chapter
pursuant to the time frame identified in Section 2745. l(d) or (e); or,
(3) Ifa stationary source has a process with more than a threshold quantity cfa
regulated substance as listed in Tables 1 or 2 and Table 3 of Section 2770.5, the
owner or operator shall comply with the provision of this chapter pursuant to the
time frames identified in Section 2745. l(b).

Three years after the date on which a regulated substance is first listed
under Section 68.130, Part 68, Title 40 of CFR; or,
The date on which a regulated substance is first present in a process, above
the threshold quantity, as listed on Section 2770.5 Table 1 or 2.
(c) The owner or operator of a stationary source shall submit a copy of the
USEPA required information according to the time frame set forth in (b) of this
section to the AA.
(d) If a determination is made pursuant to section 2735.4(a)(2) that an existing
stationary source must comply with this chapter, the owner or operator shall
submit an RMP to the AA after the owner or operator has received a notice from
the AA requesting submission of an RMP. The AA shall, in consultation with the
owner or operator of a stationary source, establish an RMP submittal date. The
AA shall not require submission of the RMP earlier than 12 months or later than 3
years after the notice has been issued to the owner or operator (emphasis added).
FACTS
The Pilsbury (fka Heinz) Bakery in Bakersfield stores anhydrous ammonia, a regulated substance
in quantities (10,000 lbs, as listed in the hazardous materials inventory) subject to the Table 1
(federal) threshold of 10,000 lbs, as well as the Table 3 (California) default threshold of 500 lbs.
A determination of applicability was made by this office pursuant to Section 25534 (HSC), and
Section 2735.4(a)(2) through (a)(3).
A certified letter titled, "NOTICE OF RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN (RMP) REQUIRED
BY JUNE 21, 1999" was sent to the facility on June 17, 1998, 12 months prior to either
applicable due date, in accordance with 2745.1 (b) through (d).
DISCUSSION
The term probable candidate was used in the text of the notice to provide the necessary flexibility
to allow a facility to not otherwise be regulated, if during the term of the notice, conditions
changed either through reductions or elimination of regulated substances at the facility, or else
through regulatory changes. To date, there have been no changes in either of these conditions.

NOTICE OF RISK MANAGEMENT.PLAN (RMP)
REQUIRED BY JUNE 21, 1999
Dear Mr. Rangaswamy:
Your facility has been identified by this office as a probable candidate to be subject to the
new California Accidental Release Program (CalARP), which will involve among many other
requirements, the submission of a Risk Management Plan to this office, and also to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in many cases, on or before June 21, 1999.
The CalARP regulations are a merging of the federal and state risk management
prevention programs for accidental release prevention of several hundred listed flammable or
toxic substances (e.g.: ammonia, chlorine, propane, etc.) which pose the greatest risk of causing
death, injury, or seriously affecting human health or the environment if accidentally released.
The rule requires certain facilities to develop and implement an integrated system to
identify hazards and manage risks associated with these regulated substances. Since your facility
appears to be subject to this rule, you will be required to analyze worst-case releases, document a
five-year history of serious accidents, coordinate with local emergency responders, develop and
implement a prevention program that includes, among other steps, identification of hazards,
written operating procedures, training~ maintenance, and accident investigation. If your
employees also respond to accidental releases, you must implement an integrated local emergency
response program.
An informative digest is enclosed for your reference. The text of the regulations,
technical assistance, and other information is available from our office by calling me directly at
(805) 326-3979.
Sincerely,
Howard H. Wines, III

MEMORANDUM
January 22, 1999
Ralph E. Huey, Director, Office of Environmental Services
FROM:
Howard H. Wines, III, Hazardous Materials Specialist
SUBJECT: Request for City Attorney Opinion Regarding RMP NotiCe
Attached is a copy of the Certified letter which was mailed to Hein~ Bakery. Heinz has been
Subsequently purchased by Pilsbury. On janUary 19, 1999, I received a phone call from Carol
Kenfield of Pilsbury's Minneapolis, MN office, essentially contesting the validity of the notice'.
Whether the phrase ;'probable eandidate to be' subject to the new California Accidental Release
Program (CalARP)' in any way invalidates the intent to provide notice to the facility Of '~ .:
requirements and deadlines contained therein (emphasis on probable added, as being the.crux
Ms. Kenfield's contention). '
LAW
Section 25534 of the California Health and Safety COde states under subpart (a):
For any stationary source with one or more covered processes, the administering
agency shall make a preliminary determination as to whether there is a significant
likelihood that the usp. of regulated substances by a stationery source may pose a
regulated substances a'eeident risk.
California Code of Regulations (CCR), under Title 19 (T19) which implement the Health and
Safety Code supra, are as follows:
Section 2735.4(a) Applicabili .ty
(2) If a stationary some has a process with more than a threshold quantity of a
regulated substance as listed in Table 3 of Section 2770.5, and the AA makes a
determination pursuant to Section 25534 of HSC that an RMP is required, the
owner or operator shall comply with the appropriate provisions of this chapter
pursuant to the time frame identified in Section 2745.1 (d) or (e); or,
(3) If a stationary source has a process with more than a threshold'quantity of a
regulated substance as listed in Tables 1 or 2 and Table 3 of Section 2770.5, the
owner or operator shall comply with the provision of this chapter pursuant to the
time frames identified in Section 2745.1 (b).
Section 2745.1 Submission
(b) The RMP information required by USEPA shall be submitted to USEPA no
later than the latest of the following dates:
(1) June 21, 1999 (emphasis added)
(2) Three years after the date on which ~a regulated substance is first listed
under Section 68.130, Part 68, Title 40 of CFR; or,
(3) The date on which a regulated substance is first present in a process, above
the threshold quantity, as listed on Section 2770.5 Table 1 or 2.
(c) The owner or operator of a stationary source shall submit a copy of the
USEPA required information according to the time frame set forth in (b) of this
section to the AA.
(d) If a determination is made pursuant to section 2735.4(a)(2) that an existing
stationary source must comply with this chapter, the owner or operator shall
submit an RMP to the AA after the owner or operator has received a notice from
the AA requesting submission of an R_M?. The AA shall, in consultation with the
owner or operator of a stationary source, establish an RMP submittal date. The
AA shall not require submission of the RMP earlier than 12 months or later than 3
years after the notice has been issued to the owner or operator (emphasis added).
FACTS
The Pilsbury (fka Heinz) Bakery in Bakersfield stores anhydrous ammonia, a regulated substance
in quantities (10,000 lbs, as listed in the hazardous materials inventory) subject to the Table 1
(federal) threshold of 10,000 lbs, as well as the Table 3 (California) default threshold of 500 lbs.
/
A determination of applicability was made by this office pursuant to Section 25534 (I-ISC), and
Section 2735.4(a)(2) through .(a)(3).
A certified letter titled, "NOTICE OF RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN (RMP) REQUIRED
BY JUNE-21, 1999" was sent to the facility on June 17, 1998, 12 months prior to either
applicable due date, in accordance with 2745. l(b) through (d).
DISCUSSION
The term probable candidate was used in the text of the notice to provide the necessary flexibility
to allow a facility to not otherwise be regulated, if during the term of the notice, conditions
changed either through reductions or elimination of regulated substances at the facility, or else
through regulatory changes. To date, there have been no changes in either of these conditions.

CERTIFIED MAIL
NoTIcE OF RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN (RMP)
REQUIRED BY JUNE 21, 1999
Dear Mr. Rangaswamy:
Your facility has been identified by this office as a probable candidate to be subject to the
new California Accidental Release Program (CalARP), which will involve among many other
requirements, the submission of a Risk Management Plan to this office, and also to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in many cases, on or before June 21, 1999.
The CalARP regulations are a merging of the federal and state risk management
prevention programs for accidental release prevention of several hundred listed flammable or
toxic substances (e.g.: ammonia, chlorine, propane, etc.) which pose the greatest risk of causing
death, injury, or seriously affecting human health or the environment if accidentally released.
The rule requires certain facilities to develop and implement an integrated system to
identify hazards and manage risks associated with these regulated substances. Since your facility
appears to be subject to this rule, you will be required to analyze worst-case releases, document a
five-year history of serious accidents, coordinate with local emergency responders, develop and
implement a prevention program that includes, among other steps, identification of hazards,
written operating procedures, training, maintenance, and accident investigation. If your
employees also respond to accidental releases, you must implement an integrated local emergency
response program.
An informative digest is enclosed for your reference. The text of the regulations,
technical assistance, and other information is available from our office by calling me directly at
(805) 326-3979.
Sincerely,
Howard H. Wines, III

RE: Certification Training in Ammonia Refrigeration
Dear Mr. Ridley:
The Kern Chapter of the Refrigerating Engineers and Technicians
Association (RETA), in cooperation with San Joaquin Valley College, is offering
certification in industrial refrigeration as an added benefit of RETA membership.
Classes are held just one night a month (generally the 4th Tuesday at 7:00 PM),
throughout the next two years, at the San Joaquin Valley College campus, located
at 201 New Stine Road in Bakersfield.
The new California Accidental Release Program regulations, modeled
after the federal Risk Management Program, will by June 21, 1999, require
additional levels of employee training and competency in processes involving
ammonia. Training under industry-specific standards may be used to demonstrate
compliance with these new regulations. (Reference: § 2755.4, Title 19, California
Code of Regulations). I will be participating in these classes as well.
The classes will begin on Tuesday, November 25, 1997, at 7:00 PM.

RE: Ammonia Refrigeration Class
Dear Mr. Ridley:
On behalf of the Bakersfield Fire Department, and the members of our
Hazardous Materials Response Team which participated in your facility's
Ammonia Refrigeration Class, we thank you very much for extending the invitation
to us.
I have personally been able to obtain feedback from the firefighters who
attended the class. There was a full and favorable report regarding course content
and Mr. Goldings knowledge and teaching style. Of particular interest was the
demonstration whereby a dollar bill could be shrunk to almost half of its regular
size from anhydrous ammonia removing the ambient moisture of its fiber content.
That was a very impressive learning principle.
The only other comment applied to the Heinz facility itself. Several
firefighters noted that the instructions for the ammonia diffusion system activation
at Heinz were considerably more complicated than systems at other facilities in
Bakersfield. You and Raj or Start may want to review those instructions to see if
they could be simplified, printed in larger type, etc.
If this office can be of assistance, please feel free to call me at 326-3979.

OIn accordance with Section 25534 (c)(2), the RMPP must include "{a} report specifying the nature, age, and
condition of the equipment used to handle acutely hazardous materials at the business or facility and any
schedules for testing and maintenance." This section provides a description of the facility and equipment which
handles AHMs.
ae
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The HBP refrigeration system will utilize a vapor compression cycle with flooded type evaporators
to provide cooling for the holding freezer, process water cooler, glycol chiller, and the blast freezer. The
chilled glycol (glycol and water) circulation system is used for refrigerating the dough mixer, yeast cooler,
dock area, and production area.
DESCRIPTION OF AHM PROCESS AND EQUIPMENT
The major components of the HBP refrigeration system are: compressors, evaporative condenser,
emergency ventilation system with an emergency refrigeration control box, ammonia receivers, a shell and
tube heat exchanger with suction trap for the glycol system, a plate and frame heat exchanger for the
process water cooling system, flooded evaporators, intercooler, low suction accumulator with dump
traps, an air-purger, and an oil pot. In addition to the refrigeration hardware, there is also an emergency
ventilation system and a pressure relief header system with a water tank. A description of the major
pieces of refrigeration equipment that handle ammonia is provided below.
Compressors
There are two levels of compression at this facility. The two booster compressors 'receive ammonia
vapors at approximately 8.7 inches of mercury and increase the pressure to approximately 23.8 pounds
per square inch guage (psig). the ammonia is discharged through an intercooler and then sent tot he high
stage compressors. The two high stage compressors increase the pressure of the ammonia vapor to
approximately 180 psig before the vapor flows into the evaporative condenser.
Each compressor is equipped with the respective manufacturer's recommended control package, the
compressor equipment control functions include monitoring of the ammonia discharge temperature and
pressure and the compressor oil temperature and pressure.
Evaporative Condenser
HBP has two evaporative condenser located on the roof of the facility, the evaporative condenser
removes heat associated with compressing the ammonia gas. After sufficient heat is transferred out of the
ammonia gas, the gaseous ammonia condenses to the liquid state. The liquid ammonia then gravity flows
into the thermosyphon receiver tank. The evaporative condenser has a secondary function in that is also
serves as an ammonia scrubbing system for ammonia leaks that occur within the machine room.
Emergency Ventilation System
The engine room is equipped with an ambient ammonia sensor. If the ambient ammonia concentration in
the engine room reaches 200 parts per million (ppm), the ammonia sensor will automatically start up the
· emergency ventilation fan. the emergency ventilation fan will discharge the ammonia laden air from the
engine room into the evaporative condenser where the ammonia will be absorbed into the water. At the
same time the emergency fan is activated, a three way valve will direct the blow down water from the
evaporative condenser where the ammonia will be absorbed into the water. At the same time-the
emergency fan is activated, a three way valve will direct the blow' down water from the evaporative
condenser. The emergency ventilation system can also be activated manually from outside the engine
room. a compressor shut down switch, fan switch, and scrubber pump switch are located next tot he
emergency refrigeration control box.
In the emergency control box, lines from all of the major'ammonia vessels are connected to each other.
In the event of an overpressure situation in one of the vessels, the emergency control box valves can be
operated to relieve the pressure from the overpressured system and distribute it to one or more of the
other systems, this balancing of the pressures can be done without releasing ammonia ,~o the
atmosphere. Under an extreme overpressure situation, such as a major fire, there is ~ an emergency
dump valve that can be manually opened to discharge the ammonia vapors tot he scrubber tank.
Ammonia Receiver Tanks
The refrigeration system is equipped with two ammonia receiver tanks. The thermosyphon receiver tank
receives liquid ammonia from the evaporative condenser at approximately 180 psig. the thermosyphon
receiver supplies liquid ammonia to the glycol cooling system, the process water cooling system, and the
controlled pressure receiver.
The controlled pressure receiver received liquid ammonia from the thermosyphon receiver at
approximately 30 psig via a pressure reducing valve, the controlled pressure receiver supplies liquid
ammonia, through a piping distribution system, to the flooded evaporators in the blast freezer and the
holding freezer
Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (Glycol)
The shell and tube heat exchanger consists of a series of thin-walled tubes encapsulated by an outer shell.
as the glycol passes through the inside of the tubes, liquid ammonia is allowed to flow around the outside
Of the tubes. Heat is transferred out of the glycol and into the liquid ammonia, the heat transfer into the
ammonia causes it to boil to a vapor state. The cold glycol is then pumped to .the dock area; yeast cooler,
dough mixer, and production area to absorb more heat, while the ammonia is sent to the suction trap on
its way to the intercooler.
The suction trap, located above the shell and tube heat exchanger, removes liquid ammonia that is
entrained in the ammonia vapor as it returns from the shell and tube heat exchanger. The suction trap and
shell and tube heat exchanger assembly is equipped with a high and low liquid level control system that
maintains the proper amount of liquid ammonia in the heat~exchanger. This system utilizes a solenoid
valve that is opened by a low liquid level switch and is closed by a high liquid level switch.
2
Glycol is circulated, at a temperature of approximately 25°F, to the production area via centrifugal
pumps. The cold glycol absorbs heat (utilizing evaporator coils) from the dock area, yeast cooler, dough
mixer, and production area. the glycol is returned to the shell 'and tube heat exchanger to reject the heat
it had absorbed.
Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger (Process Water)
Process water entering the production area is cooled in a plate and frame heat exchanger before entering
into the dough mixer, the process water boils the liquid ammonia in the plate and frame heat exchanger,
in a similar manner to the shell and tube heat exchanger. The ammonia vapors from the plate and frame
heat exchanger are combined with the ammonia from the shell and tube heat exchanger prior to entering
the intercooler.
Flooded Evaporators
Flooded evaporators operate on the principle that liquid ammonia has a higher heat transfer rate than
ammonia vapor. The liquid ammonia is allowed to fill the evaporator to absorb the heat from the
circulated along the exterior of the evaporator by electrically driven fans. As the liquid ammonia absorbs
the heat from the cold storage room air, the liquid ammonia boils to a vapor phase. This ammonia vapor
is returned to the Iow suctiOn accumulator to remove any ammonia liquid entrained in the vapor stream.
Intercooler
The intercooler has two primary functions. First, it removes the heat of compression from the ammonia
being discharged from the booster compressors. This is accomplished by bubbling the hot gas through a
bath of liquid ammonia. As the liquid ammonia absorbs the heat from the gas, the liquid ammonia flashes
to a vapor.
The intercooler also functions as a suction scrubber for the high stage compressors by removing the
entrained ammonia liquid from several gas streams. The intercooler removes entrained liquids from the
saturated gas streams from the booster compressor discharge (including the gas from the boiling of the
intercooler liquid ammonia), the process water cooler, glycol chiller, and the controlled pressure receiver.
Depending on the plant's refrigeration requirements, liquid ammonia may accumulate in the intercooler.
This fluid is discharged to the low suction accumulator.
Low Suction Accumulator
The low suction accumulator serves two purposes. First, it removes liquid ammonia entrained in the
vapor line returning to the compressors from the evaporators. Ammonia vapors are returned to the
compressor from the top of the accumulator. Second, it acts as a reservoir for liquid ammonia returning
in the vapor stream from the evaporators in the blast freezer and the holding freezer, the low suction
accumulator also receives liquid from the intercooler. As the liquid ammonia accumulates in the vessel,
gravity flows through a check valve and into the dump trap.
Dump Trap
The dump trap collects liquid ammonia that settles in the bottom of the low suction accumulator..Once
the liquid in the dump trap reaches a preset level, a solenoid valve opens and allows high pressure
ammonia gas to push the liquid ammonia out of the controlled pressure receiver. When the level in the
dump trap drops low enough to reset the float switch, the solenoi ve closes and stops the flow,of high
pressure gas.
Air-Purger
Minute leaks in the valve packing located in the low pressure ammonia lines (compressor suction lines)
allow air to be drawn into the system. The air, along with other non-condensable gases, degrades the
performance of the system. To remove non-condensable gases, degrades the performance of the system.
To remove non-condensable gases from the ammonia system, the ammonia is fed from the thermosyphon
receiver into an air-purger. The air-purger removes air from the ammonia by cooling the ammonia/air
mixture until the ammonia condenses. The air that remains is fed into a water bubbler where the small
amount of residual ammonia is absorbed. This slightly ammonia laden water is then discharged into the
sewer.
Oil Pot
The oil pot provides a method for removing compressor oil from the ammonia refrigeration system.
When the compressor oil is to be drained, liquid ammonia with the compressor oil will be drained from
the low suction accumulator into the'he, oil pot. An electric heater is then activated to boil the ammonia
out of the ammonia/oil mixture. The ammonia vapors then flow to the Iow suction accumulator. After
the ammonia is boiled off, the oil is drained manually from the oil pot.
V. DESIGN, OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE SAFETY SYSTEMS
~Se.c.tio.n 25534 (c)(3) requires that'the RMPP address design, operating, and maintenance controls which
~minimize the risk of an accident involving acutely hazardous materials. This section of the RMPP discusses these
controlsl It also addresses the design safety of new equipment, standard operating procedures, and preventive
maintenance programs, as required by Section 25532 (g); and operating and maintenance programs, as required
by Section 25534 (k).
A. GENERAL
The HBP facility was designed in accordance with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations, standards,
and good engineering practices. Uniform Building Code requirements for Seismic Zone 4, which address
earthquake protection, were applied to the plant.
The refrigeration system is protected by numerous instrumentation circuits and safety devices which
utilize the latest control technology available. These instrumentation systems allow for the safe operation
of the facility and routine monitoring of the system performance. Several safety circuits are designed into
the system to automatically shut down the ammonia refrigeration system in the event of equipment
malfunction or failure. Additionally, there are pressure relief valves throughout the ammonia refrigeration
system to prevent overpressUring the equipment.
CONTROL SYSTEMS
1. High Compressor Discharge Pressure
Each compressor is eqUipped With a high discharge pressure switch which shuts down the
appropriate compressor(s) in the system. High discharge pressures could be caused by a
e
&
condenser malfu~'~ion, noncondensable gases entrained in'l~e system, or a closed valve in the
compressor discharge line. If a high compressor discharge shut down in initiated, the system will
remain down until the problem that generated the shut down is corrected and the switch is
manually reset.
High Compressor Discharge Temperature
A high discharge temperature switch is installed on the compressor discharge line to shut the unit
down if the discharge temperature of the gas is too high. This system protects the compressor if
the cooling system is lost, the condenser malfunctions and the system pressure increases, or there
is an internal problem (friction) with the compressor. The reset on the switch is manual.
High Liquid LeVel in Compressor Suction Scrubber
The compressor(s) will be shut down if the liquid level in the low suction accumulator or the
intercooler rises above the high liquid level set points. A high level set point could be reached if
the liquid dump systems do not function properly on their respective vessels. These shut down
systems prevent damage to the compressors that would occur if liquid ammonia reached the
operating compressors.
Liquid Level Controls in Accumulator, Intercooler
Solenoid valves controlled by float switches maintain the appropriate liquid level in the Iow
suction accumulator and the intercooler. In the intercooler, the low level float switch opens the
solenoid valve on the liquid ammonia line to establish flow into the he intercooler, when the
liquid ammonia level in the intercooler reaches the designed capacity, a high liquid level float
switch de-energizes the solenoid valve which stops the ammonia flow. The intercooler is also
equipped with a liquid level high-high switch that activates an emergency shut down on the
compressors. If this switch operates, the compressors can be restarted after the liquid level is
reduced to normal operating level and the emergency shut down switch is manually reset.
The low suction accumulator is equipped with a similar liquid level high-high switch that also
operates the emergency shut down on the booster compressors. This shut down system is also
manually reset after normal operating parameters are reestablished. The low liquid level (normal
operating level) in the low suction accumulator is controlled by the dump traps. The dump traps
discharge the excess liquid ammonia to the controlled pressure receiver.
Brine System Suction Trap
In the brine system, the liquid ammonia level in the shell and tube heat exchanger is also
controlled by fluid level switches, this liquid level control system works the same as the one
installed on the intercooler.
Thermosyphon Receiver/Controlled Pressure Receiver
The liquid ammonia level in'the thermosyphon receiver is controlled by a level' control valve on
the controlled pressure receiver. A pilot sensor from the level control valve is mounted on the
thermosyphon receiver. When the liquid.level in the thermosyphon receiver covers the pilot
sensor, the level control valve open and gravity drains the liquid from the thermoSyphon receiver
to the controlled pressure receiver.

Compressor Contro s
In addition to the system control stated previously, the compressors are equipped with many
functions as follows:
* Suction pressure switch
* Discharge pressure switch
* Compressor oil temperature switch
* Electric motor overload relay
SAFETY EQUIPMENT
1. Pressure Relief Valves
All of the compressors and each pressure vessel are equipped with pressure relief valves. Within
the facility there are three pressure relief settings, two high pressure settings and a low pressure
setting. The high pressure systems have spring loaded pressure relief valves set at 250 and 300
psig. The Iow pressure system has spring loaded pressure relief valves set at 150 psig.
All pressure relief valves discharge into a dedicated pressure relief header. This header directs the
ammonia flow into a scrubber tank where the ammonia vapors released from the pressure relief
valves will be absorbed in the water. An ammonia sensor is located in the pressure relief header
to monitor for the presence of ammonia. This sensor will alarm if there is 200 ppm of ammonia in
the line and notify the operators that a pressure relief valve has operated (or is leaking).
2. Ammonia Emergency COntrol Box
An ammonia emergency control box is located northeast of the engine room. The thermosyphon
receiver, low suction accumulator, intercooler, and the controlled pressure receiver all have
pressure lines which are connected to the control box. Inside the control box, valves connect
each of these pressure lines to each other. In the event of an overpressure situation in one of the
systems, these valves can be operated to relieve the pressure fi.om the overpressured system and
distribute it to one or more of the other systems. This balancing of the pressures can be done
without releasing ammonia to the atmosphere. Under an extreme overpressure situation, such as
a major fire, there is also an emergency dump valve this will discharge th~ammonia vapors to the
scrubber tank. The pressure relief valves will also discharge ammonia into the scrubber tank
automatically if the system pressure reaches the relief valve set points.
3. Respiratory Protection
Personnel responsible for emergency response will be trained in the use of self contained breathing
apparatuses (SCBA). At least two SCBAs will be on site for response to emergency situations.
FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM
6
Ee
Portable fire extinguishers are available through OUt the plant, management personnel are trained in
the use of hand held fire extinguishers. The inside of the facility is also blanketed by a sprinkler system
which meets or exceeds the requirements imposed by the Bakersfield City Fire Department.
EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN SYSTEMS
The emergency shutdown switch for the compressors is located outside the building, and is labeled "S 1."
This manually operated remote switch shuts down all power to the compressors.
All pressure relief valves vent to a header which discharges to a water tank located northeast of the
engine room. When the pressure relief valves release ammonia into the header, the ammonia breaks
through a foil rupture diaphragm and flows into the water tank where it will be absorbed. An ammonia
sensor is located inside the header to detect releases from the pressure relief valves. This sensor is
connected to a control panel where both audio and visual alarms will be set off.
An ambient ammonia sensor monitors the inside of the building. If the concentration of ammonia reaches
200 ppm, an alarm will sound and an emergency fan will be automatically started to direct air out of the
building and into an evaporative condenser where the ammonia will be absorbed in the water. A control
switch for manual operation of this fan is located on the outside of the building adjacent to the
compressor emergency kill switch and is labeled "S2" There is also a control switch for manual
operation of the scrubber pump located adjacent to the compressor emergency kill Switch, which is
labeled "S3".
STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES
An operating manual that covers the basic operations of the HBP ammonia refrigeration system was
supplied by the refrigeration contractor. In addition to the basic operation of the system, the manual
includes a description of normal start up, emergency shut downs, and the control system alarm set points.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
Scheduled and preventative maintenance will be performed on all equipment in accordance with the
equipment manufacturer's recommendatiOns, as described in the operations manual supplied by the
refrigeration contraCtor. Additional maintenance will be performed on an as needed basis.
OTltER OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAMS
In addition to the standard operating and maintenance procedures, "tailboard briefings" or "job
procedure discussions" will be conducted prior to commencing non-routine tasks. This procedure
ensures that the operation and maintenance personnel understand the job specific potential hazards and
how to react if a hazard develops.
VI. DETECTIO ONITORING AND CONTR SAFETY SYSTEMS
Detection, monitoring, or automatic control systems to minimize potential acutely hazardous materials accident
~risks are discussed in this section, as required by Section 25534 (c)(4) of Chapter 6.95. Pursuant to Section
25535 (k), monitoring programs are also addressed.
AUTOMATED MONITORING
1. Pressure
Each compressor is equipped with a pressure activated shut-off switch that monitors the vapor
discharge pressure: If the vapor discharge pressure becomes too great, the switch activates to '
shut off'the compressor. The switch must be manually reset to restart the compressor.
The compressor discharge header also contains a pressure activated switch that controls the
evaporative condenser fans. At 155 psig discharge pressure, the switch turns on the low speed
condenser fan. If ambient temperatures are low enough or it refrigeration demand is low, the Iow
speed fan will Shut off at 150 psig. When refrigeration demand or ambient temperatures are high,
a high speed condenser fan will start up at 170 psig discharge pressure.
Oil pressure for each compressor is also monitored. If the oil pressure falls below a pre-
designated setting, the compressor will be shut down automatically according to the
manufacturer's procedure. The oil pressure shut-offmust be manually reset to restart the
compressor.
All ammonia vessels including receiver tanks, accumulators, suction traps, oil pots, and dump
traps are equipped with automatic pressure relief valves. The valves activate when the pressure
exceeds 150 to 300 psig depending on the vessel. If the pressure relief valves operate, the
ammonia is released into a header pipe and sent to an ammonia scrubber tank system.
If ammonia is released into the pressure relief header, an ammonia sensor (set at 200 ppm) will
activate audio and visual alarms. These alarms will notify operations personnel that the pressure
relief valve has operated.
2. Temperature Monitoring
EaCh compressor is equipped with a temperature activated shut-off switch that monitors the
temperature &the discharge vapor. If the temperature in the compressor discharge line exceeds a
~reset value, the switch activates to shut down the compressor. The temperature switch must be
manually reset to restart the compressor..
Compressor oil temperature is also monitored. If the compressor overheats during operation, the
switch activates to shut offthe compressor. The switch must be manually reset to restart the
compressor.
3. Interlocks
WAITING FOR REFRIGERATION OPERATING MANUAL.
e
Ambient Ammonia Sensing
The engine room that contains the bulk of the ammonia refrigeration system is monitored by an
ambient ammonia sensor. If the ammonia level in the room reaches 200 ppm for any reason, an'
emergency ventilation system will be activated. This system may also be manually activated from
the remote emergency switches located outside of the building.
The emergency ventilation system consists of a high flow rate fan (19,150 cubic feet'per minute)
that discharges into the evaporative condenser. Once the system is activated (either automatically
or manually), the fan pulls air out of the engine room and blows it into the evaporative condenser
which circulates 1000 gallons per minute of water. At the same time, the evaporative condetiser
drain line is directed away from the sewer and into the ammonia scrubber tank located outside.
The water in the evaporative condenser absorbs the ammonia vapor and is returned tot he
scrubber tank. A water pump on the tank is also started at this time to circulate water fi.om the
scrubber tank to the evaporative condenser. This water pump may also be started manually with
switch S3 located next to SI and S2 on the outside of the building.
B. MANUAL MONITORING
The ammonia system will be monitored on a routine basis. Plant operations personnel will physically
inspect the system on a daily basis during the operation of the plant to verify the proper function and
integrity of equipment. Records of the inspections will be kept for a minimum of five years.
In addition to the routine daily inspections, the physical condition of the ammonia equipment will be
monitored during scheduled plant shutdowns. When there is a scheduled shutdown of the plant, the
ammonia system may also undergo inspection and maintenance during the plant shutdown.
All records of maintenance, both preventative and response, on the ammonia system will be recorded for
future reference, these maintenance records will be kept for a minimum of five years.
VII. AUDITING AND INSPECTION PROGRAMS
In accordance with Section 25534 (c)(6), this section describes the auditing and inspection programs designed to
allow the handler to confirm that the RMPP is effectively carried out. Also discussed are the internal and
external audit procedures, pursuant to Section 25532 (g), and equipment inspection programs and auditing
programs, per Section 25534 (k).
A. INITIAL AUDIT AND INSPECTION
Major pieces of equipment are subjected to material and shop tests by the contractors constructing the
facility. Once the equipment is installed at the site, all systems are subjected to performance tests to
ensure that all equipment and processes operate properly and in accordance with all specifications and
code requirements. The performance tests are witnessed by HBP personnel. These tests combine the
mechanical operation of the equipment with the electronic control systems. They cover the starting
sequence, normal operation and emergency shutdown of the appropriate systems, all monitoring,
detection, alarm and automatic shutdown systems are also tested.
Be

AN AMMONIA EMERGENCY CONTROL BOX IS LOCATED NORTHEAST OF THE ENGINE ROOM.
THE TI~RMOSYPHON RECEIVER, LOW SUCTION ACCUMULATOR, INTERCOOLER, AND THE
· CONTROLLED PRESSURE RECEIVER ALL HAVE PRESSURE LINES WHICH ARE CONNECTED TOT
HE CONTROL BOX. INSIDE THE CONTROL BOX, VALVES CONNECT EACH OF THESE PRESSURE
LINES TO EACH OTHER. IN THE EVENT OF AN OVERPRESSURE SITUATION IN ONE OF THESE
SYSTEMS, THESE VALVES CAN BE OPERATED TO RELIEVE THE PRESSURE FROM THE
OVERPRESSURED SYSTEM AND DISTRIBUTE IT TO ONE OR MORE OF THE OTHER SYSTEMS.
THIS BALANCING OF THE PRESSURES CAN BE DONE WITHOUT RELEASING AMMONIA TO THE
ATMOSPHERE. UNDER AN EXTREME OVERPRESSURE SITUATION, SUCH AS A MAJOR FIRE,
THERE IS ALSO AN EMERGENCY DUMP VALVE THAT WILL DISCHARGE THE AMMONIA
VAPORS TO THE SCRUBBER TANK. THE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES WILL ALSO DISCHARGE
AMMONIA INTO THE SCRUBBER TANK AUTOMATICALLY IF THE SYSTEMPRESSURE REACHES
THE RELIEF VALVE SET POINTS.

THE ENGINE ROOM IS EQUIPPED WITH AN AMBIENT SENSOR. IF THE AMBIENT SENSOR. IF
THE AMMONIA CONCENTRATION IN THE ENGINE ROOM REACHES 200 PARTS PER MILLION
(PPM), THE AMMONIA SENSOR WILL AUTOMATICALLY START UP THE EMERGENCY
VENTILATION FAN. THE EMERGENCY VENTILATION FAN WILL DISCHARGE THE AMMONIA
LADEN AIR FROM THE ENGINE ROOM INTO THE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER WHERE THE
AMMONIA WILL BE ABSORBED INTO THE WATER. AT THE SAME TIME THE EMERGENCY FAN
IS ACTIVATED, A THREE WAY VALVE WILL DIRECT THE BLOW DOWN WATER FROM THE
EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER TO A SCRUBBER TANK FILLED WITH WATER. A CIRCULATION
PUMP ON THE SCRUBBER TANK WILL ALSO START AND CIRCULATE WATER FROM THE TANK
TO THE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER. THE EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM CAN ALSO BE
ACTIVATED MANUALLY FROM OUTSIDE THE ENGINE ROOM. A COMPRESSOR SHUT DOWN
SWITCH, FAN SWITCH, AND SCRUBBER PUMP SWITCH ARE LOCATED NEXT TO THE
EMERGENCY REFRIGERATION CONTROL BOX.

AN AMMONIA EMERGENCY CONTROL BOX IS LOCATED NORTHEAST OF THE ENGINE ROOM.
THE THERMOSYPHON RECEIVER, LOW SUCTION ACCUMULATOR, INTERCOOLER, AND THE
CONTROLLED PRESSURE RECEIVER ALL HAVE PRESSURE LINES WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO
THE CONTROL BOX. INSIDE THE CONTROL BOX, VALVES CONNECT EACH OF THESE
PRESSURE LINES TO EACH OTHER. IN THE EVENT OF AN OVERPRESSURE SITUATION IN
ONE OF THE SYSTEMS, THESE VALVES CAN BE OPERATED TO RELIEVE THE PRESSURE
FROM THE OVERPRESSURED SYSTEM AND DISTRIBUTE IT TO ONE OR MORE OF THE OTHER
SYSTEMS. THIS BALANCING OF THE PRESSURES CAN BE DONE WITHOUT RELEASING
AMMONIA TO THE ATMOSPHERE. UNDER AN EXTREME OVERPRESSURE SITUATION, SUCH AS
A MAJOR FIRE, THERE IS ALSO AN EMERGENCY DUMP VALVE THAT WILL DISCHARGE THE
AMMONIA VAPORS TO THE SCRUBBER TANK. THE PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES WILL ALSO
DISCHARGE AMMONIA INTO THE SCRUBBER TANK AUTOMATICALLY IF THE SYSTEM
PRESSURE REACHES THE RELIEF VALVE SET POINTS.
<2> Release Containment
THE ENGINE ROOM IS EQUIPPED WITH AN AMBIENT AMMONIA SENSOR. IF THE AMBIENT
AMMONIA CONCENTRATION IN THE ENGINE ROOM REACHES 200 PARTS PER MILLION
(PPM), THE AMMONIA SENSOR WILL AUTOMATICALLY START UP THE EMERGENCY
VENTILATION FAN. THE EMERGENCY VENTILATION FAN WILL DISCHARGE THE AMMONIA
LADEN AIR FROM THE ENGINE ROOM INTO THE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER WHERE THE
AMMONIA WILL BE ABSORBED INTO THE WATER. AT THE SAME TIME THE EMERGENCY FAN
IS ACTIVATED, A THREE WAY VALVE WILL DIRECT THE BLOW DOWN WATER FROM THE
EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER TO A SCRUBBER TANK FILLED WITH WATER. A CIRCULATION
PUMP ON THE SCRUBBER TANK WILL ALSO START AND CIRCULATE WATER FROM THE TANK
TO THE VAPORATIVE CONDENSER. THE EMERGENCY VENTILATION SYSTEM CAN ALSO BE
ACTIVATED MANUALLY FROM OUTSIDE THE ENGINE ROOM. A COMPRESSOR SHUT DOWN
SWITCH, FAN SWITCH, AND SCRUBBER PUMP SWITCH ARE LOCATED NEXT TO THE
EMERGENCY REFRIGERATION CONTROL BOX.
<3> Clean Up
IF'PFI HAS AN AMMONIA RELEASE THAT ACTIVATED THE EMERGENCY VENTILATION
SYSTEM, AMMONIUM HYDROXIDE WILL BE FORMED AS THE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER WATER
CONTACTS THE ANHYDROUS AMMONIA. THE AMMONIUM HYDROXIDE WILL BE DRAINED INTO
THE SCRUBBER TANK AND WILL BE CONTAINED ON SITE AND DISPOSED OF IN
ACCORDANCE WITH ALL LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS.

<1> Release Containment
1) AUTOMATED SCRUBBER SYSTEM WILL ABSORB AMMONIA RELEASES FROM THE ENGINE
ROOM. AMMONIA CONCENTRATIONS OF 200 PPM ACTIVATE THE SYSTEM WHICH EXHAUSTS
AIR FROM THE ENGINE ROOM INTO THE EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER. WATER FROM THE
EVAPORATIVE CONDENSER IS THEN CIRCULATED WITH THAT IN THE AMMONIA DIFFUSION
SYSTEM WATER STORAGE TANK. MANUAL OVERRIDE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW IN SECTION 4.
2) AMMONIA DIFFUSION SYSTEM MAY BE USED TO BALANCE PRESSURE BETWEEN THE
HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE SIDES OF THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM. ENTIRE AMMONIA
CHARGE MAY BE DIFFUSED INTO WATER STORAGE TANK. SEE OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTION
BELOW IN SECTION 4.
3) KING VALVE IS LOCATED IN THE ENGINE ROOM ON THE AMMONIA LIQUID LINE OUT
OF CONTROL PRESSURE RECEIVER. CLOSURE OF THE KING VALVE WITH COMPRESSORS
RUNNING WILL PUMP AMMONIA INTO RECEIVERS. COMPRESSORS WILL SHUT DOWN
AUTOMATICALLY IF HIGH TEMPERATURES OR PRESSURES ARE EXPERIENCED.
4). AMMONIA PIPING THROUGH POPULATED AREAS OF THE PLANT INTERIOR IS MINIMAL.
SOLENOID VALVES ARE DESIGNED TO CLOSE UPON SYSTEM SHUTDOWN ISOLATING LINES
THAT ENTER THE.PLANT. AMMONIA RELEASES WITHIN THE BUILDING ARE EXPECTED TO
BE MINIMAL FOLLOWING SHUTDOWN OF THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM.
5) PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES ARE VENTED INTO THE AMMONIA DIFFUSION WATER TANK.
6). MANUAL ISOLATION VALVES ON THE ROOF FOR EVAPORATORS AND CONDENSER.
