HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN AND SOIL MANAGEMENT PLAN GLEASON PARK APARTMENTS PROPERTY E. Church, S. Stanislaus, and S. American Streets Stockton, California INTRODUCTION The Gleason Park Apartments Property occupies about three acres within an older area of Stockton, California. Enviromnental investigations have revealed elevated concentrations of lead sporadically in site soils. The primary source of the lead in site soils is believed to be weathering of lead-based paints from residential structures that occupied the site for over 100 years. This Health and Safety Plan and Soil Management Plan (HMP/SMP) has been developed to present measures to limit exposure to residual lead in site soils, and to establish appropriate procedures for the handling and management of soils disturbed at the site during future activities, including procedures to be implemented for any future removal of soils from the property. It is recognized that site evaluation and human health risk assessment have demonstrated the residual lead in site soils does not represent an unacceptable health risk to site workers and residents given intended property usage (multi-family residential). The oversight regulatory agency (State of California Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Toxic Substances Control) has concurred with the findings of the site evaluation and risk assessment; however, it has been considered prudent to establish basic health, safety, and soil management procedures for future activities at the site that could include the disturbance of site soils. The scope of this document is limited to procedures and measures to reduce exposure to residual lead in site soils. All other health and safety measures, such as those to address common physical and construction hazards, are the responsibility of future contractors/workers and other site personnel and are not included in the scope of this plan.
