In this episode, Rob and Magi discuss the CSB's new safety study titled "Remote Isolation of Process Equipment" that includes recommendations to regulators and emphasizes the need for greater adoption of remote isolation equipment at chemical facilities across the country. Rob and Magi run through the list of recent CSB investigations that are specifically highlighted in the safety study, where the CSB determined that lack of effective remote isolation equipment significantly contributed to incident consequences, discuss the recommendations the CSB made in their study to API, EPA, and OSHA, and talk about actionable next steps for listeners at applicable facilities.
