1.0 HEALTH AND SAFETY PROGRAM <br /> Geological Technics has incorporated the following health and safety precautions while working on <br /> sites containing unidentified hazardous waste. Once the nature and extent of contamination has been <br /> determined,additional work on site will be met with the proper precautions. <br /> 1.1 Workers Health and Safety <br /> 1.1.1 Work Space Safety <br /> The perimeter of the workspace should, if;possible,be 20 feet from the drilling rig or excavation site. <br /> Brightly colored delineators will mark the working perimeter. All unauthorized personnel will not be <br /> allowed access into the workspace. <br /> The project supervisor will coordinate all field activities and maintain the safest possible working <br /> environment at all times. If an emergency occurs,the supervisor will immediately contact the proper <br /> authorities. <br /> 1.1.2 Skin and Head Protection <br /> Disposable suits, boots, and gloves will be worn when the working conditions require such <br /> precautions. <br /> Disposable plastic gloves will be worn at all times during soil and groundwater sampling. The <br /> gloves will be changed after each sample has been collected. <br /> Used disposable clothing-will be properly discarded at the end of each working day. <br /> Hard hats will be worn during drilling, excavation, and other activities in which potentially <br /> dangerous equipment is being operated within the workspace. <br /> 1.1.3 Face and Respiratory Protection <br /> During drilling and excavation activities, the working air space will be periodically monitored with <br /> either a Photo Ionization -Detector (PID) for gas and vapor content. The PID measures the total <br /> organic compounds (VOC) vapor concentration. Monitoring of the working air. space shall be <br /> concentrated around the drilling rig and in the down wind direction. <br /> If working air space concentrations exceed the Permissible Exposure Limits, the workers will wear <br /> respirators with organic vapor cartridges. If working air space at the perimeter of the working space <br /> has levels that exceed the Permissible Exposure Limits for more then 15 minutes, then the drilling or <br /> excavation activity will halt until the concentrations can be maintained below the Permissible <br /> Exposure Limits. <br /> 1.2 Health and Safety Agencies - <br /> 1.
