Turn 1018 January 2027Sending a message to Mykola Danylchenko with specifics: confirm December 21 (evening), propose a commission format (workshop + lawyer + trade union committee), demand that the plant provide a list of documents and a plan of technical control points by December 20. I also ask to coordinate the time and place by phone so we don't miss the window before the journalists on December 22. I am not spending money.accepted

Thoughts
I am called by the trade union about December 21-22: the checklist and criteria must be such that they cannot be "rewritten" at the last minute for journalists. I trust neither Lytvyn nor their trade union senior order: without clear control points, everything will become vague promises. I have to handle the moment: quickly coordinate the document structure (what exactly we are checking, where we record, how we confirm accepted/not accepted, what are the deadlines for elimination). My influence in the city is low, so I need to act quietly and with evidence - with letters, acts, protocols, without unnecessary drama.
Options
- Call Mykola Danylchenko now and firmly fix the date/composition of the commission and the requirement: an act-report with control points and accepted/not accepted thresholds, pl...
- Write Mykola a short cover letter: 2 pages of the structure of the future act (types of inspections, locations, calibration devices, deadlines for re-inspection). About the meeting...
- Prepare a draft "list of documents and inspection procedure" ourselves and invite a lawyer for a 30-minute consultation before the commission, so as not to waste time on December 21...
Choice. Option 1, because we need to quickly gather people and immediately set conditions for evidence and deadlines for signing on December 22.
Diary. Today I am urgently focusing on December 21-22: without evidence-based control points, the contract for the workshop will be empty. I have demanded that Mykola coordinate the time/composition and receive documents and inspection plans from the plant by December 20. The main thing is that the final act includes accepted/not accepted criteria and deadlines for elimination, reproducible on site.
Turn 829 December 2026Today I am contacting Mykola Danylchenko and confirming the format again: the commission works according to a checklist (document/point/threshold value/responsible person/accepted-rejected criterion), the protocol is signed by all present, photo documentation of work moments and seals/serial numbers on equipment, and in case of deviations, the deadline for elimination and re-control are immediately recorded. I am preparing a 1-page memo for myself: 6 questions for Rybak on-site (what kind of device, calibration/date, sampling point, methodology, maximum permissible concentration/established threshold, who approved the threshold) and I insist that journalists see not the process "in words", but the compliance of document points with actual measurements.accepted
Outcome. Trade union activist Holub demands a clear protocol for controlling measurements at the plant.

Thoughts
Tomorrow the commission is at "Lytvyn-Khim" – and this is exactly the moment where words must turn into an act. It is important for me that the measurements do not become a theater "for journalists", but have clear thresholds, documents, and a sequence of actions: what we check, what confirms it, who is responsible, and what "unacceptable" means. I will have to confront both the owner and those who try to smooth things over. I am going as the voice of the union, but without aggression: only specifics – checklist, protocol, photo documentation, signatures, and for the next step to depend on the result, not on mood.
Options
- I am going to the commission with Mykola, I insist on a protocol according to my checklist, I ask to supplement the act with a point on the criterion of unacceptability and the deadline for elimination in case of deviations...
- Before leaving, I will additionally clarify by phone with Mykola which specific points and indicators will be measured, and refine the wording of the checklist for technical terminology...
- In parallel, through Mykola, I will ask the chief doctor or the city environmental doctor to provide a short medical and technical report to the commission, so that any deviation is interpreted...
Choice. I choose option 1: tomorrow is a key day, and I must ensure the control mechanism in the protocol so that no "explanations" replace the criteria for rejection.
Statement: «The city needs not demonstrations of transparency, but checks with acceptance/rejection criteria and accountability. For the union, safety is measured by an act, a signature, and a deadline for elimination if there are deviations.»
Diary. 2026-12-19. I have set myself the main rule: tomorrow the protocol must be evidence-based. I work through the checklist so that journalists and people have a sense not of "process", but of the correspondence of facts to document points. I don't trust Lytvyn – so I demand in advance the device/calibration/point/threshold. I insist to Mykola: if there are deviations, a deadline for elimination and re-control...
Turn 69 December 2026I will call Mykola Danylchenko and set a short framework: 1) list of documents we request from "Lytvyn-Khim" before the inspection begins (instruction logs, technical inspection protocols, risk maps, sampling/control plans, work permits during modernization, deviation acts and their elimination); 2) three blocks of on-site inspection (actual condition of protections/fences; control of gases/vapors and ventilation; work order and permits); 3) rejection criteria - specific points by which the act immediately records "unacceptable" (lack of current permit, discrepancy in logs, absence/malfunction of control devices, absence of fences in the work area, lack of confirmation of calibration/verification of devices...accepted

I see that the city is actively playing with transparency: registers, zone map, projects. But for me, all this makes sense only when there is a safe procedure and rejection criteria in the workshop. Danylchenko wrote to me about the technical framework for November 20-21 - good: journalists need not conflicts, but factual control. In parallel, Lytvyn is building "modernization of treatment facilities," and even if there is progress, employee risks do not disappear from percentages in reports. Therefore, this turn I will fix the final structure of the technical framework: what exactly we check, what documents we request and how we draw up the acts, so as not to blur responsibilities and criteria.
Options
- Organize a technical framework with Danylchenko: finalize the act/checklist for the cameras and write down the rejection criteria and the inspection procedure.
- In writing, contact the chief architect and departments by linking to the coastal zone: request comprehensive data, as it affects engineering solutio...
- Meet with Valentyna Hrytsenko: agree on medical criteria for workshop risks (so that documents include not only technical but also medical guidelines).
Choice. Organize a technical framework with Danylchenko and approve the format of the acts and rejection criteria. This is the fastest way to turn control into a document, not a performance.
Diary. I set myself a task: the city's transparency should not replace real safety in the workshop. Today I decided to make the technical framework as "dry" as possible: document + inspection site + rejection criterion. I am sending the framework to Mykola so that the act is universal: journalists can see, the trade union committee has something to demand, and we have something to accept or stop. Lytvyn can increase its percentage...
Turn 419 November 2026I am preparing a checklist for tomorrow (1 page) in two parts: (1) technical safety in the workshop during work and during launch/testing: PPE, access control, ventilation/air in the work area, status of fixations/locks, instruction log; (2) environmental/sanitary criteria: water/waste disposal/sanitary protection zones within measurements, responsible control points. I am adding a "rejection criterion" block: if there is no document or the deadline/measurement point is not met – the act is not signed, remarks are entered with a reference to the document and checklist item. I am not spending anything today: only printing and sending through the trade union committee/internal channels. In parallel, I am checking to ensure there are no evaluative words in the text: only "presence/ab…accepted

Yesterday, we started the control packages: technical measurements, schedules, public protocols. But the main thing is how this will turn into acceptance/rejection when pressure starts on site and "half-words" replace paper. Tomorrow, Danylchenko's group will work with Rybak, and supervision will be with journalist Pylypenko and Sofia. It is important for me not to make noise, but to have fixed criteria: documents, verification points, responsible parties, and what will be considered non-compliance. I have low influence in the city, so I act through procedure: letters, checklists, demanding the presence of responsible parties for signature. Lytvyn and the trade union leadership can play "process," but I won't allow vagueness. I need to narrow down the checklist again today and check if we have medical and technical formulations that cannot be distorted.
Options
- Prepare a short checklist for tomorrow: 10 points of technical safety/PPE/air/water/disposal + a template for the "rejection" remark (document-deadline-responsible person-cr…
- Call Valentyna Hrytsenko and ask for one page: what medical accents should be in the workshop inspection reports to be legally "tied"? Then pe…
- Publicly respond in "Chronicle 2046" with a letter through the editor: demand that any modernization statements be accompanied by measurement protocols and criteria pr…
Choice. I choose the first option: I need an action that works on site tomorrow. Medical accents can be strengthened briefly, but without a checklist, we will lose time and the chance to fix unacceptability based on the facts.
Diary. Today I narrowed down the position for tomorrow's inspection: I created a checklist without evaluative words and with a clear rejection criterion. My goal is simple – for journalists and everyone else to have not "words about the process," but an act with points: document-deadline-point-responsible person. I am not against modernization; I am against it when it remains a beautiful statement without a mechanism of responsibility.
Turn 230 October 2026I am writing a message to Mykola Danylchenko with a clear list: 1) what to consider an acceptable result for safety (criteria), 2) minimal documents that must be available before the start of work/modernization (lists, logs, acts/instructions), 3) deadlines for control points (before/after stages), 4) who signs from the responsible parties. I ask for a response on whether the trade union can initiate the inclusion of these points in the position for city discussions by the end of the month. I am not spending anything at my own expense - I am only preparing materials and collecting a 1-page risk checklist from the workshop masters for the accuracy of the wording.accepted

I am Ivan Holub: a master at "Lytvyn-Khim", a trade union activist. Today I see the city's pace: programs are running, but it's more about trust and communication. For me, one thing is valuable – are there control points for safety and accountability in those programs? The tension with Lytvyn is not decreasing: the owner easily gives general words, but it doesn't work on the shop floor. I want to use my connection with Mykola Danylchenko so that he doesn't "scatter" the union's demands, but rather imbues them with specific deadlines and criteria. Also, we need to be careful: not to create a scandal, but to obtain documents and procedures so that the safety issue becomes a subject of verification, not discussion.
Options
- Prepare a short package for Mykola: what exactly should we demand from the city regarding safety (deadlines/criteria/responsible parties) and ask to bring it up at the next relevant committee meeting...
- Meet with Lytvyn during a workshop inspection and ask three specific questions about technical safety and control of execution, documenting the answers in writing.
- Contact the city level through relevant contacts: forward a draft of demands for the inspection/audit protocol of treatment facilities, but without direct reference to the plant, to reduce...
Choice. I choose option 1. It is important for me to first embed the demands into the process through the trade union structure, so as not to reduce everything to conversations with the owner or "good intentions".
Diary. 2026-10-20: I started with Mykola because the trade union mechanism can provide the city with demands with dates and criteria. I don't trust "audits in general" – I want any promises to become accepted/rejected through documents and control. In parallel, I contacted the chief physician so that our technical formulations have medical sense and are not detached from real risks.
