Safety Officer February 19, 2012 The CSB Video presentation and technical information on chemical incident reports and live models are highly informative, competent and latest in its origins. Appreciate CSB management core efforts in developing the safety videos and for pure enhancements across the globe its educational, enforcements and engineering concepts are remarkble and thought provoking. Thanks to everyone and specailly for providing free SafetyVideos for learning and sharing.
Risk Analyst February 03, 2012 CSB videos are invaluable to me. I use CSB videos in both training at my facility and in teaching at a community college. I find the video production values to be excellent, and the messages in the videos to be clear, concise and on target.
Operations Manager January 30, 2012 It's unfortunate it takes accidents and catastrophies to establish improved safety measures and preventions. Thanks to CSB and their investigations we're able to improve our overall safety awareness and accident prevention.
CompEx Framework manager September 23, 2011 CompEx is the global solution for verifying compentence in installing, inspecting & maintaining Ex equipment in Explosive Atmospheres and we fully intregrate the CSB videos in the training.
Arun Kumar Joshi September 22, 2011 CSB videos are very informative and gives indepth knowledge of process safety requirements.
April 13, 2011 I must say this is a very well made safety tool that many people can learn from so these things will hopefully not happen again. Thanks for not letting these instances just fade and keeping them here for thousands of people to learn from.
Safety Rep April 05, 2011 I recently used your video on the Dangers of Hot Work in a new hire training class. It was some of the best feedback from a video I've ever had. I think it's one of the few videos that makes the reality of the Hot Work hazard personal. Thank you
Mechanical Technologist March 24, 2011 One of the best presentations I've seen in my 30 years in the Oil and Gas industry. Having personally 25+ years of operating experience as Unit Operator, Control Room Operator and Shiftleader, I can certainly relate to the safety and business impacts that a disfunctional culture can create. Now having 4 years of technical experience has shown me how important original design and it's suitability to present operating conditions is to process safety.
Senior Compliance Specialist March 17, 2011 CSB case study videos are a regular staple during HAZMAT response and safety training to convey the consequences of improper action or inaction. We find these videos to be informative and an invaluable resource.
Production Foreman January 26, 2011 Thank you for the informative information. These incidents and the results of your investigatons I share with my employees as safety topics.

February 09, 2010 I am a volunteer Safety Coordinator at a NASA facility that makes the External Tank for the Space Shuttle. It is also the very same plant the mighty Saturn rockets of the Apollo program were made. These videos are widely used in our weekly and executive meetings and a couple have actually caused processes to be updated in this thousand acre property. As the program winds down, workers can take the lessons learned with them to future career fields.
OSH Student January 31, 2010 These videos have enhanced my classroom learning experience. The computer generated reinactments help to better understand the complexity and the chain of events leading up to these catastophic events.
Assistant Manager Safety, Health and Environment January 12, 2010 This website has had a great great impact on me. I am Head of the HSE Dept, it gives me great information in learning from the incidents occuring and communicating with my staff and peers on these informations.
Haz-Mat-Trainer.com January 10, 2010 These are the very best safety videos I have seen in my career of over 25 years training responders. I recommend them very highly to anyone who works in an industrial environment. Real-Life situations are a great learning tool.

Safety Rep November 26, 2009 All the videos are very informative. They allow you to see the things we don't think about because we covered all the normal things on that particular job assignment not thinking about if the operators of that certain tank dotted all of his I's and crossed all of his T's.
hse November 22, 2009 I'm using your videoa to teach students in the second year in the HSE university of Colmar, for more than two years now. Those are the best information I've found in the past years to bring the students up to the best level in risk assessment. Thanks a lot for your valuable support
Professor October 06, 2009 Your videos are a tremendous teaching aid for our Chemical Engineering program. They clearly illustrate the connections between design, operations, and management. Students can readily learn how a chain of small decisions and events can lead to serious consequences if everyone is not thinking about risk and mitigation.

High School Chemistry Teacher September 06, 2009 Your videos are incredibly useful in my high school chemistry classroom. Students love to watch and learn about real investigations of real industrial accidents. In addition to opening their minds to the wide range of chemistry-related careers, your work demonstrates how safety is more than just "rules" -- students understand that safety is serious business and developing safe habits is key to their future careers.
Senior Engineer July 14, 2009 The CSB videos help us a lot on our daily work doing the design of Refineries, flowlines, chemical plants and other Oil & Gas Facilities that we built here is USA and overseas. We can show to our folks that the accidents are real and looking the video we can find very good lessons learned. Thank you.
Operations Training Superintendent July 14, 2009 I saw portions of the CSB videos during a training session related to industrial operator skills and knowledge, they provided valuable insight as to "why" some of the fundamental skills for an industrial operator are so important and are not to be taken for granted.
Division Chief Traning/Safety June 30, 2009 Thank you this will be a great training aid for our entired department/Hazardous Material team, also shows the need for LEPC and the assistance they give to our community
HSSE specialist June 24, 2009 The CSB videos are the hallmark of my training courses. CSB videos have phenomenally magnified the very idea of hazard communication by creating videos that contribute enormously to pedagogy.
Fire Chief June 22, 2009 These videos are an awesome training tool for the community and has revamped some of our training with regards to potential hazards we encounter. I am joining our Local LEPC so that we can find out what we have coming through our area. With a major highway and train rails coming through our rural area I am sure that we have more potential than ever thought of locally for a serious incident. Thanks CSB
chief June 18, 2009 Great video. We used it as part of our emergency response training. The city of jacksonville has several factories and this video shows that small things can turn into big problems.
EHS Supervisor June 11, 2009 These videos seem ideal for getting across real world practical information to those who have 'seen it all' before.
Programs Manager June 11, 2009 I manage a training center in Michigan that delivers training to over 3000 students annually for various response disciplines. We deliver haz-mat, terrorism, technical rescue and command and management training. The video(s) will be used to share information to all disciplines of the importance of training, preapredness, planning and coordinating together regardless of which agency you perform for. Valuable lessons can be identified in your reports.
