TL;DR: The procedures for safer plant operations and general safety is a continuing program, and must be reviewed and revised, when required, in order to enhance safer operations.
Abstract: There are two major requirements for safety in plant operations: 1) convince everyone that it is smart to be safe, and 2) make it easier to be safe than unsafe The most important method of instituting a workable and reliable safety program is that the general safety philosophy must be truly believed by management and promoted by them It is only in this atmosphere that plant personnel will be able to progress to an outstanding safety record The procedures for safer plant operations and general safety is a continuing program, and must be reviewed and revised, when required, in order to enhance safer operations

TL;DR: Geophysical activity by the petroleum industry in 1959 was reduced in all the major areas of the free world except in the Far East where a small over-all gain was reported as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Geophysical activity by the petroleum industry in 1959 was reduced in all the major areas of the free world except in the Far East where a small over-all gain was reported. An average of 957 geophysical crews of all types operated in world-wide exploration during the year. In 1956, a record high year, the world-wide average was 1,136 crews.

TL;DR: Paleocurrent data have been obtained from crossbeds and ripple marks found in the Lower Cambrian Chilhowee Group of eastern Tennessee as mentioned in this paper, which indicate that the major direction of clastic transport during Chilwayee time was toward the southeast.
Abstract: Paleocurrent data have been obtained from cross-beds and ripple marks found in the Lower Cambrian Chilhowee Group of eastern Tennessee. These indicate that the major direction of clastic transport during Chilhowee time was toward the southeast. In addition, the ripple-mark data suggest a shoreline oriented northeast-southwest. Evidently the Chilhowee currents moved primarily down the regional paleoslope to the southeast, perpendicular to the shoreline. Such a transport direction is in opposition to the prevailing current motion (predominantly east to west) inferred from Precambrian sediments below the Chilhowee and from most of the Paleozoic strata above. The reversals in Late Precambrian and Paleozoic current directions reflect changing source areas during the evolution of the southern Appalachian geosyncline.
