Earplugs or earmuffs (while working on or around operating equipment) <br />Decontamination consists of contamination -reduction phases and personal hygiene for site <br />operations. The following decontamination procedures will be used: <br />Maximize the use of disposable clothing for personal protection (latex surgical <br />gloves, Tyvek coveralls and PVC booties). <br />Remove disposable PVC booties, Tyvek coveralls, outer gloves and inner gloves <br />and dispose of them in a clean unused garbage bag(s). <br />Remove respirator, remove cartridges and discard them. Return respirator to <br />storeroom at the end of the job. All respirators will be properly washed, sanitized, <br />tagged and stored. <br />The garbage bag(s) holding disposable items from the site operations will be <br />placed in securely covered, clearly marked 55 -gallon steel drums and placed in an <br />area of the site at the direction of the Site Engineer. Final disposition will be in <br />accordance with site remedial action. <br />Wash hands and face with soap immediately upon exiting the Exclusion Zone. <br />After departing the site, site operations personnel should shower as soon as <br />possible. <br />After departing the site, fabric work clothes and undergarments should be washed <br />as soon as possible using routine wash method. <br />Eachpiece of equipment (tools and all vehicles taken inside the exclusion zone) <br />must be decontaminated before it leaves the operation site. This must be done in <br />an area designated for equipment decontamination. Large items of equipment, <br />such as backhoes, vehicles and trucks, should be subjected to decontamination by <br />high pressure water washes or steam. A special solution, such as Liqui-Nox, a 1% <br />to 2% TSP solution, or Bola Degreaser, may have to be used on sampling <br />equipment or heavily soiled items. All wash and rinse water must be contained <br />(on Visqueen for large equipment, in 5 -gallon buckets for tools), collected, and <br />disposed of as required. <br />For decontamination of personnel involved in an accident, refer to the Emergency <br />!
