Health and Safety Plan 455 E 11th St Tracy,California authority. Steel toed shoes or boots will be worn at all times when on the site.When possible, appropriate guards will be in place during equipment use. Field personnel should be careful to keep loose clothing, hands, and feet away from vacuum hose inlets. 3.3.4 Electrical Hazards In order to prevent accidents caused by electrical shock,field personnel will inspect electrical equipment being used (e.g. power tools, electrical cords) on a daily basis for evidence of frayed or loose connections. When necessary, electrical equipment is isolated in order to prevent the transmission or release of energy.This isolation for the control of hazardous energy is commonly called "Lockout/Tagout". If necessary, all provisions of the OSHA standard as stated in 29 CFR 1910.147 will be followed for controlling hazardous energy or locking out or tagging out electrical and utility hazards. 3.3.5 Lock-out/Tag-out Lock-out/Tag-out procedures should be used on any pieces of equipment being worked on by field personnel.The only exception to this is equipment with a plug, which can be unplugged and remain in control of the worker. Proper lock-out/tag-out includes the identification and isolation of hazardous energy.The energy sources must be locked out so that only the worker(s) has the key to release the isolation point. Stored energy(e.g. air or water pressure) must also be released prior to conducting work on the equipment. If necessary, all provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Agency(OSHA)standard as stated in 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 1910.147 will be followed for controlling hazardous energy or locking out or tagging out electrical and utility hazards. 3.3.6 Confined Spaces Confined space entry is not anticipated for this project.Terraphase field personnel will not enter any confined space without specific approval of the Project Manager.Subcontractors may need to conduct permit-required confined space entries. In the event that a subcontractor project manager determines a permit-required confined space entry is necessary,the Terraphase Project Leader should be notified. If confined space entries are conducted they will be in accordance with the subcontractor's confined space entry program. An attendant will be stationed above the confined space while the entrant(s) are in the confined space.A full-body harness with emergency retrieval equipment or another means of egress (e.g. ladder)shall be in use if necessary. Before conducting any work inside a confined space (e.g.tank),the personnel will conduct a visual inspection of the area from the opening to identify any hazards before proceeding.
