PART D— HAZARD ANALYSIS AND CONTROLS (Site-Specific Safety Analysis & Information) <br /> D.1. "BASELINE" HAZARD PREPAREDNESS(This section applicable to ALL Tasks,covering natural hazards,driving/travel,basic safety&PPE) <br /> a.Weather/Climate/Altitude Hazards <br /> ®Heat stress—Prevent heat-related illness;At ambient temps>80°F(27°C)use Geo HeatTracker to assess hazard,implement mitigations accordingly. <br /> ®Cold stress—Prevent frostbite,hypothermia;multiple clothing layers,keep clothing dry,protect exposed skin,stay hydrated,frequent warming breaks. <br /> ®Sunburn,conjunctivitis—Sun blocker,shade canopy,wide-brimmed hat,long sleeves/pants;protect eyes from glare near water/snow/sand <br /> M Extreme weather—Track weather,emergency plan:ID shelter/refuge,use weather app for lightning prediction at 10 mi./16 Km(use"30/30 rule"as backup). <br /> ®Weather-related conditions—Use appropriate precautions for ice/snow/slippery conditions,flood,mold,soft ground,downed trees/wires,fire hazards,other. <br /> ❑Acute Mountain Sickness(AMS)/Altitude Illness—for work to be performed at>8,000 feet(2,450 meters)above sea level,see THA Addendum on AMS. <br /> .

repellant,permethrin-treated clothing/gear,tick checks,tuck pants/shirt,tick removal tool, <br /> wasp spray,bug zapper/trap,mosquito netting,fogging,other barriers and protective devices,habitat treatment/removal,as applicable. <br /> ®Plant hazards—Know the hazards(e.g.poison ivy/oak/sumac,giant hogweed,poison hemlock,nettles,etc.),know the precautions for site habitat:barrier <br /> ointments,washes;long sleeves/pants,gloves,remove plants(avoid burning),launder work clothes(hot water/detergent),clean tools(alcohol or soap/water). <br /> ®Animal hazards—Know the hazards/precautions for work site:avoidance,repellants,PPE,warning devices,habitat/food source removal,infection controls. <br /> ®Common unsanitary/allergenic hazards—Use routine hygienic measures/precautions;hand washing/sanitizer,food hygiene,PPE,disinfectant cleaning. <br /> ®Infectious/pathogenic-For site-specific infectious hazards(viral,bacterial,bloodborne pathogens,mold,other),see D.13"Infectious/Pathogenic Biohazards." <br />

<br /> HSE Program Documents:HSE SOP-408:Biting/Stinging Arthropods and Poisonous Plants, <br /> c.Routine Driving Hazards <br /> ®Routine work travel—Use routine safe/defensive driving practices(seat belts,safe speeds,eyes ahead,no tailgating,limit distractions,safe cell phone use, <br /> no texting,clear windows,account for weather/road conditions,adequate sleep,other measures as appropriate). <br /> ®Unfamiliar location—Before driving in roadway:view map,note key benchmark locations,plot your route and/or enter destination into navigation device. <br /> ®Unfamiliar vehicle—Before driving in roadway:become familiar with vehicle controls;adjust seat,mirrors,vents,heat/AC,audio,lights,check brakes. <br /> ®Fatigue—Minimize fatigue during long drives:frequent rest breaks,muscle stretches,eat light snacks-avoid heavy meals,stay hydrated,fresh air,no loud <br /> music,clean windshield;avoid/minimize long distance driving during your ordinary sleep hours;total work time and drive time should not exceed 14 hours per day. <br />

rough terrain,trip hazards,steep slope,slippery surfaces);maintain good housekeeping,be <br /> aware of on-site structures,utilities,overhead hazards,uneven/hazardous surfaces,obstacles,onsite traffic,restricted access/workspace. <br /> ®Musculoskeletal hazards—Prevent strains/sprains from strenuous tasks,overexertion,repetitive motion/ergonomic/lifting(seek help/lift-aids over 49 lbs.) <br /> ®Worksite traffic hazards—Implement measures to protect personnel(high-visibility/reflective clothing,on-person lighting,traffic control measures). <br /> ❑Hazardous energy—Use caution near electrical equipment/wet locations,machinery/physical hazards,stay out of hazard zone/line-of-fire,don't touch. <br /> ❑Illumination hazards—Illuminate work areas and/or access routes,use high-visibility and reflective clothing or on-person lighting,as appropriate. <br /> ®Security:high potential for crime/workplace violence/security breach—Complete a Risk Assessment for Working in High-Crime,High Security Risk Locations <br /> ®Working alone—Communicate a project-specific Ione-work plan to coworkers,including procedures for periodic communication/contact. <br />
