err <br /> �r <br /> TABLE 3 <br /> General Physical Hazards and Controls <br /> f..i Physical Hazard Engineering or Administrative Controls <br /> fr:+ <br /> Moving vehicles Be aware of any vehicular traffic. Personnel will wear orange safety <br /> vests when working along active areas and roadways and will use <br /> fir appropriate traffic safety control measures (i.e., cones, signs) <br /> Buried pipelines and utilities Call Underground Services Alert (USA) at 800.227.2600. Contract a <br /> private underground utility locator service. Locate and mark buried <br /> tanks, utilities and pipelines prior to drilling. Hand auger the first 5 <br /> feet if the exact location of buried pipeline is unknown. Follow <br /> setback requirements specified by utility companies. <br /> Excavation Be aware of identified buried utilities. Maintain constant eye contact <br /> �qr with excavator or back hoe operator during operation (watch <br /> excavator swing). Identify and avoid pinch points, do not walk behind <br /> excavator. Maintain a 5 feet clearance from the edge of the <br /> excavation while walking. Observe all barricades. Report any surface <br /> cracks outside the limits of the excavation to the excavator operator. <br /> Overhead electrical wires Be aware of overhead electrical wires and height of rig tower (if <br /> applicable). Drill rig to remain at least 15 feet from overhead <br /> powerlines of 50kV or less. <br /> Build-up of explosive gases/fire Provide A, B, C fire extinguisher in the event a spark from vehicle <br /> creates fire hazard; especially during the dry season. No spark <br /> ,. sources such as lighters, matches, or unapproved equipment can be <br /> used in the work area. Intrinsically safe equipment must be used. <br /> Flying debris/objects Wear protective eye wear (safety glasses) steel toed boots and <br /> �► hardhat <br /> Noise > 85 dBA Personnel will wear hearing protection in the vicinity of the drill rig if <br /> conversations have to be shouted at a distance of 3 feet. <br /> Back Injury Use proper lifting techniques. Use 'buddy system" when lifting <br /> objects over 75 pounds. <br /> Protruding objects Flag protruding objects <br /> Drilling/probe equipment The subcontractors are responsible for providing drilling safety <br /> procedures prior to conducting the work. Verify operation of drill rig <br /> "kill switch". Identify and avoid pinch points. Wear hardhat, hearing <br /> protection (ear plug, minimum), protective eye wear (safety glasses) <br /> and steel toed boots. <br /> Insect bites Be aware of flying or biting insects, especially when working in grassy <br /> areas. If bitten, disinfect area and dress. Seek medical attention if a <br /> reaction or infection occurs. <br /> f� <br /> V <br /> `r <br />
