0 <br />HAZARD CRITERIA <br />Hazard Evaluation <br />0 <br />* As air, water, soil and chemical substance monitoring data <br />become available for all site work, the information will <br />be evaluated by the Site Safety Officer. Appropriate <br />action in the Health and Safety Modifications will be <br />initiated by the Safety Officer if necessary. <br />The anticipated activities of this project include: <br />* Drilling\Excavation and sampling of borings or <br />excavations, <br />* Collection of soil samples, <br />* Monitoring of ambient hydrocarbon concentrations during <br />project activities. <br />The general types of hazards associated with this project are: <br />* Mechanical hazards: swinging objects, machinery, etc., <br />* Electrical hazards: buried cables, overhead power lines, <br />* Chemical hazards: gasoline, diesel, waste oil, <br />* Fire hazards: natural gas and product lines, flammable <br />petroleum hydrocarbons, and motor driven equipment, <br />* Thermal hazards: heat stress, <br />* Acoustical hazards: excessive noise created by machinery. <br />Job hazard analyses associated with each major work activity are <br />presented in the following sections. <br />Hazard Evaluation: Soil Borings <br />Drilling soil borings and installing groundwater <br />monitoring wells in contaminated soil will potentially <br />expose field personnel to the following known hazards: <br />Chemical hazards: <br />Exposure to various chemical substances, including but <br />not limited to, petroleum hydrocarbon liquids and vapors <br />from gasoline and diesel fuel, waste petroleum oil and <br />grease. <br />W-3 <br />
