Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report Page II-19 Forward Inc.

Such controls might include wind screens near unloading areas or the use of dust suppressants. • if the above controls cannot reduce employee dust exposure below acceptable levels as determined by Forward Landfill (considering factors including irritation and annoyance to employees), site personnel at risk would be supplied with gloves, coveralls, eye protection and respirators, with associated training in their use. • Wastes must not leave the landfill on workers' clothing. Workers who have had direct contact with waste, or who have performed operations that may involve direct contact with wastes (such as equipment maintenance or asbestos handling), would wear disposable clothing or change clothing before leaving the site. The potentially contaminated clothing will be cleaned or disposed as appropriate. • To avoid cross-contamination from contaminated to non-contaminated sites, the applicant would install a pressurized water distribution system to service a decontamination facility for personnel and equipment.
