Any operational procedures that
are incapable of yielding positive measurement control must be reviewed
and alternative procedures must be investigated.
On multi-grade vessels, it may
be necessary to discharge the vessel in a certain order to avoid
contamination of certain grades. This situation should be
discussed and the order (sequence with quantities) of discharge by
grade an/of product should be agreed upon prior to discharge.
If any question arises in the
relation to compatibility or contamination, all interested parties
should be notified and the question should be resolved before discharge
begins.
The suggested Inspection
Checklist or a similar document should be used and submitted along with
the completed inspection report.
