Posted By Alec Wood Hi Amy, looks like you're in the same boat as myself. I am concentrating my efforts in three main areas 1. Trying to keep the current procedures in force - the "it doesn't matter anymore" attitude is quite prevalent 2. Specific risk assessments for dismantling and decommisioning of equipment. These, and any other 'extraordinary works', need seperate risk assessment before commencement, safe systems of working etc etc. 3. What is going to be left behind? I am formulating advice to my company now about the requirements for the machinery and plant we will leave. Advice gained in my previous thread indicates we should consider ourselves as second-hand equipment suppliers to the people who will buy the site from us and deal with this equipment as if I was a second hand machinery dealer. As someone reminded me in my previous thread on this subject, don't forget the environmental impacts. Disclosure of contaminated land, residual chemical left in storage vessels etc. Good luck in your job hunt Alec Wood
