Do you have any comments on the availability of the data we are requesting, the frequency of collection, the clarity of instructions and record­keeping, the reporting format, or on the data elements that are reported to BSEE?

  • In “Production Safety System” questions, it should be 842(c )instead of (b) for hazard review.

  • In “Production Safety System” questions, in 842(d), it references PE stamps for as-builts which is no longer required.
