   PER CURIAM.

In this appeal, the petitioner, Randalls Food & Drugs, Inc. (Randalls), asks this court to review and set aside the administrative law judge’s (ALJ) order affirming two citations issued by the appellee, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA cited Randalls for violating section 1910.119 of OSHA’s Process Safety Management Standard because its written operating procedures do not address the conditions for emergency shutdown of Randalls’s refrigeration system or the steps necessary to correct or avoid operating deviations. The ALJ determined that Randalls’s operating procedures were deficient because the procedures do not clearly assign the duty of shutting down the refrigeration system, do not address the conditions for shutting down the system, and do not address the steps required to correct or avoid operating deviations.

This court reviews the ALJ’s findings of fact under a substantial evidence standard, affording deference to the ALJ’s determination upon hearing the evidence. This court is “bound by the ALJ’s findings of fact, including his judgments of credibility supporting those facts, if they are supported by substantial evidence on the record considered as a whole.” The court can overturn the ALJ’s conclusions of law only if those conclusions are “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with the law.”

Randalls challenges the ALJ’s finding that its operating procedures do not assign the duty of pressing the manual shutdown button. The operating procedures provide substantial evidence to support this finding. Nothing in the shutdown procedures specifically assigns the responsibility for shutting down the system. Even if any one of Randalls’s employees is permitted to shut the system down, the shutdown procedures simply do not indicate that fact.

Randalls also challenges the ALJ’s finding that the operating procedures do not address the conditions indicating when the refrigeration system must be shut down. The operating procedures provide substantial evidence to support this finding. The procedures do not explain the conditions under which shutdown is required. Although the procedures suggest that a major leak, extremely high discharge pressure, and no running water may warrant an emergency shutdown, the procedures do not explain what constitutes a major leak or extremely high discharge pressure. Even if Randalls’s automated control system will shut the refrigeration system down under conditions specified in the technical operating procedures for the control system, the shutdown procedures do not include this explanation. Because the shutdown procedures do not address the conditions under which emergency shutdown is required and do not assign shutdown responsibility to qualified operators, the ALJ’s conclusion that Randalls’s operating procedures are deficient is not “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with the law.”

Randalls similarly challenges the ALJ’s finding that its written procedures do not address the steps required to correct or avoid operating deviations. Randalls’s written procedures provide substantial evidence to support this finding. The procedures simply omit any discussion about operating limits. Although Randalls insists that no reason exists to reduce its operating standards to writing because its personnel are trained to operate the refrigeration system, section 1910.119 nevertheless requires Randalls to write down the steps required to correct or avoid deviations. • Randalls has not done that. Because Randalls’s procedures do not address the steps required to correct or avoid deviations, the ALJ’s conclusion that Randalls’s operating procedures are deficient is not “arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with the law.” Consequently, the court DENIES the petition for review.
