The field team shdrrld remove their personal �Y tective clothing in <br /> the following sequence: <br /> Step 1 : Move out of the exclusion zone and into the decontamination <br /> zone. -Do not remove personal protective equipment. <br /> Step 2 : Obtain decontamination solutions and decontaminate the <br /> spades, shovels and other equipment by brushing them under a water <br /> rinse . A high-pressure steam cleaner may also be used for <br /> decontamination. All wastes and spent decontamination liquids will <br /> be properly contained. <br /> Step 3 : Remove outer gloves and coveralls and place them inside a <br /> garbage bag. Keep the air purifying respirator on. <br /> Step 4 : Move to the support zone and remove the respirator. <br /> Monitoring Program <br /> Personal exposure to ambient airborne hazards will be monitored to <br /> assure that personnel exposures do not exceed acceptable limits and <br /> that appropriate selection of protective equipment items is made. <br /> Airborne hydrocarbon vapor concentrations will be measured primarily <br /> by the use of a hydrocarbon vapor meter. If concentrations approach <br /> criteria levels, all personnel will be notified of possible site <br /> safety changers . Audits will be conducted by the Safety Officer to <br /> insure compliance with the Safety Plan and to provide additional <br /> support as required. <br /> i <br /> Ambient Vapor Reading <br /> A hydrocarbon vapor detector will be used during drilling and E <br /> excavation activities . This instrument will be used to measure both <br /> excavation and breathing zone concentration of hydrocarbon vapors. <br /> The instrument will be calibrated on a regular schedule using known # <br /> calibrated gases . <br /> Readings will be taken in the area where the field team members are <br /> working and surrounding down-wind areas . Measurements will be taken <br /> every 30 minutes where hydrocarbon vapors indicate levels above 30 <br /> ppmv. All readings will be recorded in a field notebook. <br /> Emergency Procedures listed in this plan are designed to give the <br /> field team instruction on how to handle medical emergencies and fires <br /> and explosions . The emergency procedures will, be carefully reviewed <br /> with the field team during the health and safety training session. <br /> SSP-9 <br />
