Site Health and Safety Plan <br />Countryside Market, Stockton, California March 21, 2014 <br />Be aware of the potential hazards of the contents of drums or containers before handling; <br />Inspect the integrity of the drum or container before moving. Any drum or container lacking <br />integrity shall be over-packed; <br />Consider any unlabeled drum or container containing hazardous substance and leave <br />alone until contents are properly identified and labeled; <br />Organize site operations to minimize the amount of drum or container movement; <br />Never stand on drums or containers; <br />Know the bulging drums or containers are an indication of pressure build-up. Contact the <br />Project Manager or Site Health and Safety Coordinator for guidance; <br />Utilize drum/container handling equipment whenever possible. The equipment utilized <br />should have a sufficiently rated load capacity, and should be able to operate smoothly on <br />the available surface; <br />Use proper lifting and moving techniques to prevent back injuries, if handling equipment is <br />not available; <br />Have a clear view of the available pathway when moving drums. If needed, an additional <br />person should be available to provide guidance; <br />Setup drum/container staging areas to safely identify and classify contents for proper <br />shipment. Staging areas shall be provided with adequate ingress and egress routes; and <br />Label and identify drums and containers as to their contents when moved to the staging <br />area. <br />At least one ABC-type dry-chemical fire extinguisher and a first aid kit will be available <br />onsite. <br />Designate at least one vehicle for emergency use. <br />9.8 Emergency Spill Response <br />If a spill should occur, immediate measures will be taken to control spill runoff. Measures that may <br />be taken include the use of absorbent pads or booms. <br />In the event of a release of hazardous materials, specific notification procedures should be <br />followed. The remainder of this section provides important definitions and describes the notification <br />procedures. <br />"Release" means any spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, <br />injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping, or disposing into the environment, unless permitted or <br />authorized by a regulatory agency. <br />HASP 21MAR2014 <br /> 9-4 <br /> APEX
