found in Section I. However, to facilitate the review process and enhance user accessibility, a table of contents should be provided and all pages should be numbered. The use of appendices to provide supplementary information is encouraged, but the site-specific information mast be contained in the main body of the SSP. For example, a contractor may wish to place a copy of the firm's heat stress prevention procedure in the SSP as an appendix for reference; this is fine, but the site-specific heat stress procedure mast be included in the body of the SSP. Note that information in the appendix is included to aid site personnel in the implementation of the SSP, not to provide additional review information for the TSCD industrial hygienist (see "Supplemental Review Information", below) . There is no set length for SSP's. A complex, large-scale remediation effort may require a job hazard analysis for each work category and other extensive plans; such a SSP could be over 100 pages long. Conversely, a SSP for a Site Investigation or Remedial Investigation at a simple site may take only 10 or 15 pages. Length, like most aspects of a SSP, is site-specific. Site-Specific SSP's While the SSP should be detailed yet concise, most importantly it must be site-specific. It should be noted that generic "boiler-plate" language is frequently rejected if it does not reflect conditions at the site. In particular, photocopied or verbatim EPA guidance material on topics such as levels of protection, decontamination protocol, or work zone criteria will not be accepted without information on how such items will be implemented for the project at hand. The project may be audited for compliance with the SSP by a TS® industrial hygienist; therefore, the site safety protocol should be accurately presented in the SSP. Sumlemental Review Information TSCD industrial hygienists frequently need additional information to properly evaluate an SSP. Some of this information may be found in documents that are not appropriate for inclusion in the SSP or its appendices, so they may be transmitted under sepa-rate cover. Examples include the firm's Health and Safety Progran/Policies arr d Procedures (for review of Medical Monitoring Program, Hazard Corumankation Respiratory Prottection Program, and Training Program) , rationale for P=E selection, and gsalifications of the Site Safety Officer. Contract-or/subcontract-or Issues In a situation where sena_rate SSP's are subritted for the subcontractors, these plans, as well as tyle SSP of the prime contactor, must state Who has the overall responsibi l_�' for site operations. For example, if contractor A uses subcon=-a=ors B and C on a project, the SSP's for B and C wi 11 typically state t:at r is responsible for ca rdi na`ting activities at the site. In many instances, eit'1e_r A. or one of the suns will be responsible for the decon area, air monitoring and Other se''Jices that are beneficial to everyone at the site (it would not be effective to have sepe-rate decon areas - 5 -
