APP/SSHP Soil Excavation at California National Guard Armory Lodi, California 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PURPOSE This Site Safety and Health Plan (SSHP) describes the procedures to be followed in order to reduce employee exposure to potential health and safety hazards that may be present at the project site. The emergency response procedures necessary to respond to such hazards are also described within this SSHP. The purpose of this SSHP, working in conjunction with the project APP, is to provide Oneida Total Integrated Enterprises, LLC (OTIE) field personnel, subcontractors, and other visitors with an understanding of the potential chemical, biological, and physical hazards that exist or may arise while the tasks of this project are being performed. The primary objective is to ensure the well being of all field personnel, the community, and the environment surrounding the site. OTIE personnel have the authority to stop work performed by our personnel or our subcontractors at this site if work is not performed in accordance with the requirements of the site APP/SSHP/AHAs. All OTIE employees and subcontractors who perform fieldwork during the project will be required to read this APP/SSHP and acknowledge receipt and understanding of this SSHP by signing the APP/SSHP Compliance Agreement (Appendix E) and submitting it to the OTIE Project Manager(PM) before performing any field activities. The SSHP will be periodically reviewed and modified throughout the duration of the project to ensure flexibility and adaptability as changes occur and new situations develop. Modifications to the SSHP must be approved by the OTIE PM, the Field Team Leader (FTL), the Site Safety and Health Officer(SSHO) and the Safety and Health Manager(SHM). Any changes will be attached at the end of the APP/SSHP, in Appendix J. 1.2 SCOPE OF THE SSHP The SSHP addresses all phases of field operations at the site, including: • Site characterization, including the history of the site; • Responsibilities of key site safety and health personnel; • Work practices and standard operating procedures (SOPs); • Hazard identification and assessment, including chemical, physical, biological, and radiation hazards; • Identification of personal protective equipment (PPE); • Exposure monitoring/air sampling procedures; • Heat stress monitoring; • Response procedures for accidents and emergencies; • Emergency contacts and phone numbers; • Medical surveillance; • Training requirements for workers and on-site training; and • Record-keeping requirements.
