Signatures of the PSSR Team above indicate acceptance that the equipment or project is safe and satisfactory to start-up with the exceptions note, after the Category A actions are completed.

Guidance :
These supplemental questions are provided to assist the PSSR team in ensuring that the objectives of the PSSR are met. Complete each applicable section by marking “Yes”, “No” or “N/A” to the questions in that section. If an entire section is non-
applicable, mark through the entire section with an “X”. If the answer to any question is “No”, start-up cannot proceed until the issue has been resolved.

When the answer is "NO", resolve the issue by assigning action. The category will be "A" for actions to be closed before the startup, and will be "B" for actions that can be closed after the startup.
