Maine Chemist -Ensures 4.5 Issuance of Certificates. .... a signature for receipt of the Certificate shall be obtained, signifying understanding of the conditions and limitations and the requirements for maintaining conditions under which it is issued.

  5. 2009 NFPA-306: 4.6.2(3)*Unless otherwise stated on the Certificate, all spaces including adjacent spaces documented on the Marine Chemist Certificate shall be reinspected daily, or more often as necessary, by the shipyard competent person in support of work prior to entry or recommencement of work. 2014 NFPA-306 4.6.2(3)* Unless otherwise stated on the Certificate, certified spaces including spaces adjacent to hot work, where work is being done shall be re-inspected daily, or more often as necessary, by the shipyard competent person, prior to entry or external hot work. 4.6.2 Maintaining the Certificate

  6. 2014 NFPA-306 Annex to 4.6.2(3) Spaces shall be inspected daily ... The intent of this wording is to clarify that spaces listed on the Marine Chemist Certificate do not need to be tested by the competent person unless work is being done on or in a space. For example, spaces on a certificate do not need to be tested and inspected on a weekend if no work or entry is taking place. However, nothing shall prevent a competent person from testing more frequently than the minimum...

  7. Small Print “Unless otherwise stated on the Certificate, all spaces and affected adjacent spaces are to be re-inspected daily or more often as necessary by the competent person … in support of work prior to entry or recommencement of work.” “In support of work” is the spin.

  8. NAVSEA 009-35 FY-13 CH-2 3.1.3.2 For those certified spaces which employees will enter, a Competent Person shall visually inspect, test and record each space certified as ENTER WITH RESTRICTIONS or SAFE FOR WORKERS as often as necessary, and as a minimum, prior to entry by employees on a daily basis. If a space is not to be entered on any given day, it is not required to be inspected and tested by a Competent Person. The initial MCC remains valid if conditions have not changed, unless noted on the MCC. 3.1.3.3 For those certified spaces affected by hot work, a Competent Person shall visually inspect, test, and record each space certified as SAFE FOR HOT WORK as often as necessary and, as a minimum, daily prior to commencement of hot work to ensure that conditions established by the certificate are maintained. When hot work is continuous, the affected spaces shall be visually inspected, tested, and recorded on a daily basis to maintain the SAFE FOR HOT WORK certification.

  9. USCG Safety & Environmental Health Manual CH-11 8. Vessels Afloat Entry/Repair C (3) If the Competent Person has not properly maintained the Marine Chemist Certificate, the Marine Chemist is required to reissue the certificate prior to reentry into the confined space.
