Site Health and Safety Plan <br /> California Tank Lines Facility <br /> Sierra-Pack Project No, 96-620.01 4 - <br /> f <br /> i <br /> I <br /> 9.2 Heat Stress <br /> Heat stress is associated with exposure to high temperatures, wearing protective clothing, and <br /> physical exertion. Temperatures at the site can reach 100'F or higher during summer months. <br /> Drinking water is planned to be available on-site and appropriate breaks shall be taken .if <br /> temperature and levels of personal protection so dictate . Work should be conducted under <br /> umbrellas to provide shade when appropriate . Site workers will be from outside the CCC area <br /> and are not expected to be acclimatized to the area. Symptoms and first-aid for heat stress are <br /> given in Section 6 .0. Based upon previous experience and the types of work to be performed <br /> at this site, it is anticipated that heat stress should be a major concern and precautions must be <br /> taken. Should weather become unseasonably warm, the SSO should measure the air <br /> temperatures and institute appropriate work-rest cycles. <br /> During the course of activities, the SSO may require on-site medical monitoring for heat-related <br /> disorders . This monitoring may include the following: <br /> • heart rate; <br /> • oral temperature; and <br /> • body water loss. <br /> 9.3 Noise <br /> Noise exposure is primarily associated with heavy equipment, induced draft fans, steam cleaning, <br /> and air compressors. Ear protection is provided for all field personnel and its use is encouraged <br /> when appropriate. No effects from noise on local communities which would exceed normal <br /> operating conditions at the site is expected. <br /> Sierra-Pacific Groundwater Consultants, Inc. 24 <br />
