All personnel should be aware of these symptoms and recognize them in themselves <br /> and fellow workers. Work schedules are to be modified as necessary to prevent Heat stress. <br />_ All personnel need to take into account the loss of body electrolytes by perspiration. The <br /> recommendation provided by the Company Physician regarding conservation and restoration of <br /> electrolytes includes drinking plenty of water and a normal diet. The use of salt tablets is not <br /> recommended if a normal diet is maintained. Gatorade serves little purpose except to add calories <br /> to the diet. <br /> Tl1e use of alcohol during off hours should be minimized due to the dehydrating effect of alcohol. <br /> Particulate masks shall be available and worn when wind conditions result in airborne particulates. <br /> In the event of accidental skin contact with the impacted waters or soils the contacted area is to <br /> be washed with clean water. Protective gloves should be used by those who make contact with <br /> the excavated soil. <br /> Personnel leaving the work area shall brush all soil off of their boots and clothing prior to moving <br /> out of the area. <br /> Soil clinging to the drill stem or other equipment is to be removed before leaving the work area. <br /> The decontamination procedures to be used during the course of work are limited due to the low <br /> potential exposure hazard presented by the material. <br /> Emergency decontamination of personnel follows the procedures described above where possible. <br /> This decontamination may require only the removal of personal protective equipment. <br /> A-10 N� <br /> �� CONDOR <br />
