(102F). Observe the victim and obtain medical help. Do not give the victim <br />tea, coffee, or alcoholic beverages. <br />Control (General): In hot conditions (generally >70°F), more frequent rest <br />and fluid -intake is required. Wear a hat, use sun block lotion, provide shade, <br />when possible, and institute a work/rest program. <br />4. 6.2 Fires and Explosions <br />Hazard: A spark generated by static electricity or other ignition source can <br />have sufficient energy to ignite flammable or explosive gases, vapors, or <br />dusts. Static electricity can be generated by the contact and separation of <br />dissimilar material and can occur between two charged bodies even if there is <br />no good electrical conductive path between them. The obvious hazards of <br />fires and explosions are contact and/or inhalation burns. Depending on their <br />severity, either can result in death. <br />Control/Prevention: The two primary methods of preventing thermal injury <br />from fire or explosions are to prevent their occurrence or, if they should <br />happen, to be at a safe distance away. Use equipment that will detect an <br />explosive or flammable atmosphere (e.g., explosimeter) and equipment that <br />will not ignite flammable gases or vapors (e.g., intrinsically safe instruments, <br />non -sparking brass, bronze, or aluminum tools). <br />In areas where flammable liquids are stored, handled, used, dispensed, or <br />transferred, smoking and the carrying of lighters, matches, and other spark - <br />producing clothing (e.g., polyester) and devices shall be prohibited. <br />Static electricity can be prevented from causing a spark during flammable <br />liquid transfer by bonding and grounding. Bonding is the linking of two <br />containers by an electrical connection. Grounding eliminates a difference in <br />electrical potential between a container and the earth. For bonding and <br />grounding to be effective, both containers must be metal and at least one <br />container must be grounded. It is important that clamps or clips make a good <br />metalAo-metal contact and are not blocked by a non-conductive material such <br />as paint. <br />4.7 CHEMICAL HAZARDS <br />The following hazards were assessed for the potential to exist or develop <br />during the performance of the project activities: <br />Types)/Source: <br />• Combust./flam./explos.
