What action must be taken if an unsafe condition is identified during testing?

When an unsafe condition is identified during testing, the appropriate action is to immediately remove the unit from CNG service. This is essential to ensure the safety of personnel, the integrity of the equipment, and the prevention of potential hazards associated with compressed natural gas. Operating a unit that has been determined to have safety concerns puts drivers and the public at risk, as well as increasing the likelihood of equipment failure or accidents.

Prioritizing safety in these situations means that any unit exhibiting unsafe conditions must be taken out of service without delay. It allows for a thorough inspection and necessary repairs to be undertaken, ensuring that all safety standards are established before the unit is allowed to operate again. This action prevents further complications and promotes a culture of safety within CNG operations.
