Using OSHA/NIOSH/EPA Guidance Manual recommendations, the allowable exposure <br />limit in the worker breathing area for total organic vapor (using the OVA <br />meter as a measuring device) averaged over an eight-hour work period will be <br />5 parts per million above background levels. If this exposure level is <br />exceeded, the workers will be required to wear level C protective gear. <br />' When airborne dust is present in visible quantities, air purifying <br />respirators will be worn to eliminate possible exposure to lead. <br />6.5.5 Safetyeeq_uivment <br />• Monitoring; Instruments <br />TIP 1 photoionization detector (PID) <br />Thermoelectron model 580A organic vapor analyzer <br />• <br />Personal Protective EguiMment <br />' <br />Inner vinyl gloves <br />Outer neoprene or nitrile gloves <br />Safety glasses <br />Foam earplugs <br />Hardhats <br />Half -mask respirators <br />MSA GMC -H cartridges <br />Tyvek coveralls <br />Vinyl shoe covers <br />• Emergency Equipment <br />First aid kit <br />Eyewash kit <br />' Safety blanket <br />ABC fire extinguisher <br />Isopropanol <br />' 6.5.6 Heat stress monitoring <br />Special care will be taken when performing field work in warm climates <br />' (average temperature above 75°F).
