Continued heat stress can lead to heat stroke and death. <br />Fire Prevention <br />High temperatures and dry vegetation in the work area may lead to high risk for grass fires. To <br />aid in fire suppression, all mowing of vegetation will take place in the morning hours when <br />temperatures are cool. In addition, vehicles will be equipped with fire extinguishers. <br />Personal Protective Equipment Selection and Action Levels <br />Initial Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements for the undesignated work areas at <br />the Project will be modified EPA Level D. Personal Protective Equipment has been selected <br />which will protect field personnel from the hazards and potential hazards they are likely to <br />encounter as identified during the site characterization and analysis. The level of protection <br />provided by PPE selection may be increased if additional information on site conditions shows <br />that increased protection is necessary to reduce employee exposures below established PELs <br />and published exposures levels for hazardous substances and health hazards. <br />Safety vests, safety glasses, earplugs and steel-toed boots are required at the site at all times. <br />Hardhats are required of all those working on the ground within reach of the drill rig or other <br />overhead hazards. <br />Emergency Procedures <br />Field personnel may respond to low danger emergencies, such as administration of first aid, <br />fighting small fires (with fire extinguishers), and clean-ups of small chemical spills (of less than <br />55 gallons or 500 pounds). Should outside medical or other emergency assistance be required, <br />personnel will notify the job trailer of the nature of the emergency and a call will be to 9-1-1. If <br />the injury or illness appears to be minor, the affected person appears to be minor; the person <br />may be driven to the emergency room of the nearest hospital. <br />Identification of Nearest Medical Assistance <br />Name: Sutter Tracy Community Hospital <br />Address: 1420 North Tracy Boulevard, Tracy, California 95376 <br />Telephone: 209-835-1500
