CSB Pulp and Paper Industry investigations of failures

CSB Pulp and Paper Industry investigations of failures

Virtual
Thursday, November 19, 2026 to Thursday, November 19, 2026

In this exclusive webinar, representatives from the U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) will break down how federal investigators analyze major industry incidents, what triggers their involvement, and how the operational culture of pulp and paper mills differs from other sectors.

Thursday, November 19, 2026

1:00pm - 3:00pm ET

The pulp and paper sector operates some of the most complex, chemical-intensive asset networks in heavy industry, yet its safety profile often flies under the radar compared to other high-hazard fields. In this exclusive webinar, representatives from the U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) will break down how federal investigators analyze major industry incidents, what triggers their involvement, and how the operational culture of pulp and paper mills differs from other sectors.

  • The CSB Mandate: discuss thresholds which trigger a federal investigation.
  • Insight to industry case studies: An overview of Longview, DeRidder, and Baileyville failures
  • Risk vs. Calendar Inspections: Why calendar-based asset tracking fails, and how Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) optimizes safety and uptime.
  • The Culture Gap: A candid comparison of pulp and paper safety culture against the stringent regimes of the nuclear and oil and gas sectors
