The receiving personnel should ensure that copies of all relevant paperwork, drawings and maintenance manuals, and the VALVE LOG sheet is attached to each valve before it leaves for installation. Depending on the construction timetable, the valve may remain in storage for some time. It is the responsibility of the shipper/receiver to store the valve together with all attached paperwork in a dry and safe location. When leaving the warehouse, it is the responsibility of the shipper/receiver to make sure that the valve identification is clearly shown on the outside of the shipping crate and/or shipping tag and that copies of all relevant documentation is firmly attached in a waterproof plastic bag. It is the responsibility of the shipper/receiver to ensure the truck delivering the valve to the site is properly loaded and all valves are properly tied down.
