Geosynte& consultants If respirators are worn, workers must abide by the company's Respiratory Protection Program in accordance with company's Respiratory Protection Program (HS 112). 15. DECONTAMINATION The SHSO and Project Manager will determine the type and level of decontamination procedures for both personnel and equipment based on evaluation of specific work activities in the controlled work zones. Medical treatment will take precedence over decontamination in the event of a life threatening and/or serious injury/illness. Personnel will perform decontamination in designated and identified areas upon leaving"hot zones"where the potential exists for exposure to hazardous chemical, biological, or environmental conditions. Decontamination of personnel in Level D (modified) will consist of proper containerization and disposal of coveralls, disposable boots, and gloves (if applicable). Decontamination of personnel in Level C, if applicable, will consist, at a minimum, of: • Removal and cleaning/disposal of boot covers, coveralls, and outer gloves; • Removal, cleaning, and storage of respiratory protection; • Washing of non-disposable PPE suspected of being contaminated using a soap solution followed by a water rinse; and • Removal and disposal of inner gloves. Hand tools and sampling equipment shall be decontaminated as needed by washing in decontamination basins with appropriate solutions, or, if possible, by dry decontamination. Wash solutions and PPE may require disposal at a licensed waste facility. 16.
