Reporting Unsafe Working Conditions
The SEMS program should include procedures for all personnel to report unsafe working conditions. These procedures should also take into account applicable USCG reporting requirements for unsafe working conditions in accordance with 30 CFR 250.193.
Under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, any person may report to BSEE any hazardous or unsafe working condition on any facility engaged in OCS activities, and any possible violation or failure to comply with:
- Any provision of the Act,
- Any provision of a lease, approved plan, or permit issued under the Act,
- Any provision of any regulation or order issued under the Act, or
- Any other Federal law relating to safety of offshore oil and gas operations.
When BSEE receives a report of a possible violation, or when a BSEE employee detects a possible violation, BSEE will investigate according to BSEE procedures and notify any other Federal agency(ies) for further investigation, as appropriate.
When a possible violation is reported, BSEE will protect a person's identity to the extent authorized by law.
