- Perceptible chemical odors or symptoms of exposure. <br /> - Change in on-site activity—one operation ends and another begins. <br /> - Handling leaking drums or containers. <br /> - Working with obvious liquid contamination(e.g., a spill or lagoon). <br /> - Conduct air monitoring when the possibility of volatilization exists (such as with new monitoring <br /> well or a well containing known product). <br /> 6.2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) <br /> The minimum level of PPE should be selected according to the hazards that may be encountered during <br /> site activities. Only PPE that meets the following American National Standards Institute (ANSI) or <br /> American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards are to be worn. At a minimum, all <br /> workers will wear the following protection while working on the site: <br /> • Eye protection-ANSI Z87.1-1989. <br /> • Head protection-ANSI Z89.1-1986. <br /> • Foot protection-ASTM F2412-05. <br /> • Traffic vest in high traffic areas and around heavy equipment. <br /> 6.2.1 Respiratory Protection <br /> Air purifying respiratory protection may be used for protection against dust and organic vapors during the <br /> course of the project. The need for respiratory protection will be determined by air monitoring results and <br /> site conditions. However, engineering controls and administrative controls must first be evaluated for use <br /> as the primary controls for protection against site respiratory hazards. In the event engineering controls <br /> and administrative controls are deemed to not be feasible,respiratory protection will be required. <br /> Site personnel must also understand the limitations of air purifying respirators and the End-of-Service <br /> Life cartridge change-out schedule for the particular type of respirator that will be used. Manufacturer's <br /> data has been evaluated for three types of respirators(Scott,MSA,and Survivair). <br /> Any site personnel requiring respiratory protection must also adhere to the site-specific respiratory <br /> protection program. Personnel using a respirator that is not listed above should contact their HSR to <br /> determine the change-out schedule for the particular respirator used. Any questions regarding the site- <br /> specific respiratory protection program must be directed to the HSM or PM. <br /> 6-2 <br />
