Propane Peak Shaving: An Overview

11 Security, Training & Documentation
Security

A well-documented design and as-built construction record can help ensure long-term success in operating and maintaining a peak shaving plant. Operating, maintenance and emergency procedure manuals need to be prepared and updated as required.

Formal, written security procedures should be developed for a facility. Basic security measures should include physical barriers such as perimeter fencing and/or locked enclosures. Access to a facility should normally be limited to trained personnel.

Documentation
System operators need to understand the basic properties and hazards of gaseous fuels as well as operating and maintenance requirements of a specific system. Frequent refresher training covering safety, operations, maintenance and emergency procedures should be documented.
