sb 6.0 Monitoring Program 6.1 Purpose The purpose of the monitoring program at the Tracy Tire Fire Site is to identify, evaluate and control chemical hazards during remedial actions. Specifically the program should be able to: I] Identify the materials of concern ]chemical hazardsj; 21 Provide proper health and safety eQuipment as needed to protect against chemical exposures; 31 Provide information to operations for administrative or engineering controls and/or changes, if feasible; 41 Submit data to regulatory agencies for compliance purposes. Monitoring of chemical agents, which may pose a threat to the health and safety of the workers at the site, will be achieved by utilizing SB Environmental Services, LLC ]SBES] in the role of Project Industrial Hygienist/Consultant. The LFR Project Manager in conjunction with the Project Industrial Hygienist will evaluate all operations as the project develops. As the project proceeds, materials are used, and potential new hazards identified, the air monitoring program may need to be updated to determine potential exposure to other substances and provide adeQuate protection to the workers as needed. The proposed project is not expected to create objectionable odors that could potentially affect a substantial number of people. Construction workers and personnel on directly adjacent sites may notice the odors during the construction period. However, the potential impact due to objectionable odors released by excavation activities will be temporary and limited in areal extent. In addition, in accordance with the Hazard Communication standard, material safety data sheets (MSDSs) will be maintained on site for chemical products used by personnel at the Site. In addition, containers will be clearly labeled in English to indicate their contents and appropriate hazard warnings. 6.2 Occupational Chemical Hazard Sampling Strategy and Methodologies Exposure pathways of concern for chemical compounds that may be present at the Site are inhalation of airborne contaminants, direct skin contact with contaminated materials, and incidental ingestion. Wearing protective eQuipment and following decontamination procedures can minimize dermal contact and incidental ingestion. To minimize inhalation hazards, dust or vapor control measures will be implemented, where necessary, and action levels will be observed during scheduled activities. Descriptions of the chemicals of concern, including health effects and exposure limits, are located in Section 2.0 of this HSP.
