Recently the US 91成人短视频 Safety Board has been quite supportive of the concept of the 鈥淪afety Case鈥 system.  In a recent Regulatory Report, CSB went so far as to repeat a statement attributed to one international insurer that US-based refineries sustained financial losses from incidents three timesthat of industry counterparts within an 鈥淓U cluster鈥.  By implication, OSHA鈥檚 performance-based PSM Rule regulating US refineries is demonstrably inferior to the approach taken by 鈥淓U cluster鈥 countries, presumably under Safety Case systems.

This paper attempts to trace and examine specific data underlying this 鈥渢hree times better鈥 statement.  Then more generally, the author overviews process safety regulation including OSHA鈥檚 PSM, EPA鈥檚 RMP, UK鈥檚 Safety Case, along with other European, Asian and Middle Eastern approaches. 

In addition, the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission recently reviewed their own risk-informed, performance-based schemes and proposed a more comprehensive approach.  As it deals with fuel cycle materials and transportation, bearing many features in common with the process chemical industry, it will also be considered in the comparisons.

Finally, to the extent that credible industry-wide data on property damage and business interruption claims are available, the author will determine if any conclusions can actually be drawn about relative efficacies of regulatory regimes.
