7.0 WORK ZONE AND DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES <br />A site must be controlled to reduce the possibility of exposure to any contaminants present and <br />to limit their transport from the site by personnel or equipment. <br />7.1 Control <br />A control system is required to ensure that personnel and equipment working on <br />hazardous waste sites are subjected to appropriate health and safety surveillance and site <br />access control. <br />The possibility of exposure of translocation of contaminants can be reduced or <br />eliminated in a number of ways of ways, including <br />Setting security or physical barriers at control points to regulate access to and or exclude <br />unnecessary personnel from the general area <br />Minimizing the number of personnel and equipment on site consistent with effective <br />operations <br />Establishing work zones within the site. <br />Conducting operations in a manner which will reduce the exposure of personnel and <br />equipment. <br />Minimizing the airborne dispersion of contaminants (utilizing dust control procedures). <br />Implementing appropriate decontamination procedures for both equipment and <br />personnel. <br />7.2 Field Operations Work Areas <br />Work areas (zones) will be established based on anticipated contamination. Within <br />these zones, prescribed operations will occur utilizing appropriate personal protective <br />equipment (PPE). Movement between areas will be controlled at checkpoints. The <br />planned zones are: <br />Exclusion (contaminated). <br />Contamination Reduction. <br />Support (non -contaminated). <br />
