Site Safety and Health Plan ±19.41 Acres Vacant Land ■ Manteca, California lrerracon June 12, 2017 ■ Terracon Project No. NB177049 If unauthorized personnel attempt to enter the exclusion zone, the SSO will verbally inform the individual(s) to leave the project site. If unauthorized individuals refuse to leave the exclusion zone or are considered in danger or pose danger to project personnel, the SSO will cease project activities (i.e., shut down drill rigs, excavation equipment, etc.)and notify the client representative or the local police of the situation. Site activities will not resume until unauthorized personnel have left the project site. 10.0 AIR MONITORING AND SITE ACTION LEVELS This air monitoring protocol is designed to prevent personnel exposure to airborne contaminants in excess of established permissible exposure limits. The results of field air monitoring will be used to determine the adequacy of initial personal protective equipment selection. Air monitoring equipment required for petroleum contaminated sites will include the following: Photoionization Detector Task Leader(s)will be knowledgeable in the operation of the photoionization detector. A manual on the operation of the PID and the appropriate calibration kit will be mobilized to the project site with the instrument. Photoionization detectors will be calibrated under field conditions each day prior to use. Task Leaders are instructed to consult the manufacturer's specifications for appropriate calibration gas and calibration techniques. A photoionization detector (PID) will be used to determine approximate hydrocarbon vapor concentrations in the BREATHING ZONE of site personnel. Continuous breathing zone air monitoring will be conducted during initial phases of intrusive activities (i.e., boring, excavation). If PID readings are less than 10 ppm, monitoring may be conducted at intervals of 10 minutes. If initial PID readings exceed 10 ppm, or if hydrocarbon odors become evident upon during auger advancement, continuous breathing zone air monitoring will be conducted. If sustained PID readings in the breathing zone exceed 25 ppm, personnel will upgrade to respiratory protection as outlined below. Personnel will remain in air purifying respirators until the photoionization detector readings in the breathing zone have fallen and stabilized below 25 ppm. 10.1 Site Action Levels Level D/D Modified Level C Site Evacuation < 25 ppm > 25 ppm > 300 ppm The Action Levels indicated above are for air in the breathing zone and NOT applicable to vapor above containerized soil samples. The Action Levels are established to prevent exposure to airborne petroleum hydrocarbon vapors in excess of established exposure limits. Although the 16
