Health and Safety Plan <br /> Underground Tank Investigation <br /> INTRODUCTION <br /> PURPOSE AND SCOPE <br /> The Health and Safety Plan, for contaminated soil re-excavation resample <br /> provides for the protection of on-site personnel and the surrounding <br /> community during site characterization activities. The requirements, <br /> specifications and procedures presented with this plan will apply to all <br /> personnel on-site, including employees, sub-contractors, site visitors and <br /> regulatory agency personnel. <br /> iKEY PERSONNEL <br /> HAZARD ANALYSIS <br /> The most significant risk associated with petroleum contaminated soil is <br /> exposure to aromatic compounds. Skin contact will be eliminated by use of <br /> clothing, eye wear, and gloves and the inhalation hazard will be minimized <br /> using appropriate respiratory protective devices as determined by on-site <br /> air monitoring. The Safety Coordinator/Project Manager will establish an <br /> exclusion zone encompassing a 50 foot radius from the work area. Access <br /> within this zone will be limited to required personnel. Total organic <br /> vapors will be monitored within the exclusion zone using a photoionization <br /> detector (PID) calibrated for benzene the most toxic of the aromatic <br /> hydrocarbons. Current enforceable and recouunended exposure limitations <br /> for potential site contaminants are presented in Table 1 <br /> 1 <br />
