Sep -02-99 01:03P Evan= 5rotthers Inc. 925 "43 0229 P.05 t;7 Gateway Project - Stockton. CA Evans Brothers Inc. 1. INTRODUCTION The project work to be done consists, in general, of demolition and disposal of a portion of Block 37, East of Center Street in Stockton, California. All asbestos and lead will be abated by others prior to demolition work. This Site Safety Plan is applicable to all locations of this Project. The starting and sequence of each location of work will depend on the needs of the project and the general contractor (Evans Brothers Inc.). 1.1 Background Evans Brothers Inc. (EBI) developed this Site Safety Plan (SSP) for the Building Demolition Project. The purpose of the SSP is to provide EBI field personnel and subcontractors with an understanding of the potential chemical/substance and physical haaardS that exist or may arise while the tasks of this project are perforated. This SSP describes the procedures to be followed to reduce employee and public exposure to potential health hazards that may be present on the project site. The emergency response procedures necessary to respond to such hazards are also described within this SSP. The SSP is primarily designed to guide project personnel on how to respond to normal or extreme conditions that may arise during the project execution. 1.2 Objective The primary objective is to ensure the well being of observers, field personnel and the public surrounding the subject property. To do this, project staff, client personnel and approved subcontractors shall acknowledge and adhere to the policies and procedures established herein. Accordingly, all personnel assigned to this project shall read this SSP and sign the Agreement and Acknowledgment Statement (Appendix A) to certify that they have read, understood and agree to abide by this SSP and its provisions, including the "Evans Brothers Inc. Injury and Illness Prevention Program'. Information contained in the SSP will be presented to personnel and visitors at a pre - entry safety briefing. Additional safety information which becomes pertinent over the course of the project, will be conveyed to EBI and subcontractor personnel through "tool -box safety meetings" (see EBI Injury and Illness Prevention Program) and, if necessary, addendum to the SSP will be transmitted to pertinent subcontractors. In addition, project personnel listed in Section 8 will continuously exercise supervision and control of site activities as a part of their everyday practice. Safety issues will be addressed immediately and discussed with involved EBI or subcontractor personnel on a one-to-one basis. EBI personnel have the authority to stop work activities and evacuate the area. The chart in Section 8 showing the "chain of command" shows who has the authority to stop work activities based on safety issues, beginning with the project manager. 1.3 Amendments Any changes in scope of work of this project and/or site conditions must be amended in writing on the Site Safety Plan Amendment Sheet (Appendix B) and approved by the Health and Safety Manager.
