3.0  Scope

               The  scope  of  this  document  is  to  identify,  analyse  and  compile  all  reasonably
               foreseeable  hazards  which  might  impact  on  the  use  of  these  rigs  in  their  stated
               design function of driver escape training.

               The rigs are also used in the training of rescue divers who can train in extracting
               "drivers" from the cell and in the procedure and methodology of so doing. They learn
               how  to  open  the  canopy,  remove  the  steering  wheel and  undo  a  harness  prior to
               extracting  the  driver  in  a  safe  manner.  They  usually  commence  their  training  by
               observing experienced rescue divers perform the extraction using a "Osprey" diver
               as the disabled driver in the cell and then proceed with more experience to carrying
               out extractions themselves until deemed SQEP.

               When operated by the Osprey Rescue Team Ltd. it is assumed that ALL personnel
               are  Suitably  Qualified  Experienced  Personnel  (SQEP)  and  have  received  the
               appropriate training for the role(s) that they perform on the rig and are of satisfactory
               fitness to do so.

               The  hazard  risk  assessment,  hazard  analysis  and  proposed  mitigations  are
               contained within the hazard log and are detailed and explained in Chapter 5 of this
               document.  In  order  to  achieve  the  criterion  for  European  Law  that  the  risks  have
               been reduced "So Far As is Reasonably Practicable" (SFARP), the risks were further
               re-assessed  to  ensure  that  the  cost  benefit  analysis  applied  to  each  hazard  was
               such that it can be stated that each hazard risk has been mitigated to "As Low As
               Reasonably Practicable" (ALARP) in line with current safety practice.


               Any  hazard  risk  that  does  not  meet  that  criterion  must  be  highlighted  and  further
               attempts  at  reducing  it  to  ALARP  must  be  carried  out  continually.  This  does  not
               mean that the rigs cannot operate with a higher risk level, only that the risk must be
               considered at all times when the rigs are operated.
