Dear Marc: 
via email: mmiles@glendaleaz.com 
At your request, Safety & Risk Management Group, LLC (SRM Group) is providing this project 
authorization to conduct process safety management (PSM) and risk management program (RMP) 
compliance audits of the covered process ( chlorine disinfection system) for the City of Glendale, Arizona 
(City) at the Cholla Water Treatment Plant (CWTP) and Pyramid Peak Water Treatment Plant {PPWTP). 
Scope of Work 
Triennial PSMIRMP Compliance Audit 
SRM Group will conduct triennial PSM/RMP compliance audits at the CWTP and PPWTP to evaluate the 
PSM/RMP program relative to the 14 elements of the OSHA PSM standard pursuant to 29 CFR 
1910.119( o) and the EPA RMP regulation { 40 CFR 68. 70). The audit will consist of the following activities: 
A kick-off meeting with key facility personnel. This meeting will review the objectives of the audit, 
the audit process, and confirm a rough audit schedule and staff availability. 
A field review of the applicable process for observations. 
A review of required documents and recordkeeping. This will include a qualitative review of process 
hazard analyses (PHA), management of change {MOC) documents, pre-startup safety reviews 
(PSSR), and mechanical integrity testing and inspection records for the applicable process rather 
than an in-depth audit and review of recordkeeping and documentation compliance. This will 
include visual verifications and a qualitative review of process safety information (PSI}. 
•
Interviews with individuals involved with development of PSM-required elements where employee
participation is required {engineering, maintenance & operations).
•
A closing meeting with key personnel. At this time, the auditor will discuss observations, findings
and recommended corrective actions.
SRM Group will provide draft summary tables of the observations, findings, and recommended corrective 
actions at the closing meeting.

Limitations 
SRM Group will conduct this audit in a reasonable and prudent manner in accordance with the customary

audit, this project will capture a moment in time, documenting the facility's operations during a limited 
period of time during the site visit. All possible operating scenarios may not be observed during the limited 
timeframe the Audit Team is on site. The audit will be based on information provided by the following: 
•
Facility information provided by the City.
•
Other documents provided by the City.
•
Records contained in files at the water treatment plants.
•
Direct observation of the operations, equipment, and procedures at the water treatment plants.
•
Direct verbal communication with City employees.
Information obtained from these sources will be assumed to be correct and complete. SRM Group cannot 
assume any responsibility for findings or lack of findings based on misrepresentation of information 
presented to the SRM Group audit team or for items/issues that are not visible, accessible, or present at 
the site at the time of the audit. 
This proposal and its contents shall not be duplicated, used or disclosed - in whole or in part - for any purpose other than to evaluate the 
proposal.
