_._. WATER HAZARDS(Working Over/On/Near Water,Ash Ponds,Quicksand,Soft Ground) � Applicable Not Applicable, Not Anticipated
<br /> Site-Specific Notes&Clarifications:
<br /> WATER HAZARDS General water-safety measures for all work near water:
<br /> Work/travel in watercraft or on equipment over ❑Wear regulatory-approved personal flotation device(PFD)where drowning hazard is present.
<br /> water or over coal ash impoundment/pond: ❑Bring emergency rescue and/or signaling equipment(ring buoy and rope,reaching device,flares)
<br /> ❑Workboat,barge,over-water structures ❑For fall protection over water,see D.4."Fall Hazards."
<br /> ❑Water transportation ❑For electrical hazards associated with water/wet locations,see D.10."Electrical Work Tasks."
<br /> ❑Hazardous currents(river,tidal/riptide) Boating-specific:
<br /> ❑Towing,trailer,roadway ❑Use fuel safety practices,fire extinguisher present in boat.
<br /> ❑Other—describe above ❑Develop/follow float plan,monitor weather,navigate/communicate as planned.
<br /> ❑Confirm navigation/communication equipment operable before heading onto water.
<br /> Walking/wading into water,on shoreline, ❑For work over very cold water,have immersion survival suit available.
<br /> riverbank,dock,bulkhead,abutment,coal ash: ❑For tidal,flash flood,dam release hazards,plan/locate work accordingly.
<br /> ❑Wading/walking into/near water,wetland ❑For towing a boat trailer,see D.2."Special Driving/Traffic/Transportation Hazards."
<br /> ❑Hazardous tidal zone or surf Wading in water or walking along shore/bank or on dock/pier/abutment:
<br /> ❑Water release,flash flood ❑For ice/slip hazards,wear ice creepers,sand work area,use tether,other appropriate measures.
<br /> ❑Coal ash pond,quicksand,soft ground ❑For work on ice over water,verify safe thickness,have ring buoy&rope available
<br /> ❑Open culvert,arroyo,drainage/irrigation ditch ❑For unsure/slippery footing in water,use wading staff,high-traction soles on waders.
<br /> ❑Ice hazard on or near waterbody ❑Have lifesaving skiff/boat available in circumstances where other rescue means are inadequate.
<br /> Diving ❑Monitor hazardous tides,weather for flash floods,know water release schedule.
<br /> ❑Scientific SCUBA diving For soft ground,ash ponds,quicksand:
<br /> Hazards(as applicable): ❑Wear personal flotation device(PFD),as appropriate for the work task and work environment.
<br /> Drowning,cold immersion ❑Bring emergency rescue equipment(ring buoy and rope,reaching device)
<br /> Boating collision,navigation,fog,darkness ❑If walking on ash/quicksand,provide stable walking/working surface(4'x8'plywood,or similar)
<br /> Fire/fuel hazards For diving:
<br /> Entrapment(mud/silt/coal ash/quicksand) ❑Develop a diving safety plan approved by Geosyntec's diving coordinator
<br /> Slip/fall hazards—ice,mud,silt,wet surfaces For chemical contaminant and/or biological/infectious hazard:
<br /> Weather,heat/cold stress ❑See Section(s)DA.b.,"Biological Hazards,D.13.,"Infectious/Allergenic Biohazards;'
<br /> Equipment failure,hypoxia D.14.,"Commercial Chemical Products,"and/or D.15.,"Site Contaminants,Chemical Wastes"
<br /> Chemical contaminant and/or biological hazard

<br /> DA. FALL HAZARDS(Falls to Lower Levels) Applicable Not Applicable, Not Anticipated
<br /> D.5. HAND TOOLS(Manual,Hand-Powered) L,, Applicable Not Applicable, Not Anticipated
<br /> Site-Specific Notes&Clarifications:Use of hand tools opening and sampling monitoring wells,such as wrenches and screwdrivers.
<br /> ® MANUAL HAND TOOL INJURIES E M Proper tool for the job,maintain in good condition,use vise/clamp to hold work piece,proper follow through,
<br /> M Struck by Self and nearby personnel shall stay clear of"line of fire,"use appropriate work gloves,keep blades sharp,use
<br /> M Pinch points/crushing injuries wrist strap when dropped tool poses a hazard.
<br /> ❑Puncture M Utility/folding/collapsible knives and fixed-blade knives/cutting tools are not permitted,unless specifically
<br /> authorized. Cutting tools with auto-retracting blades,or with enclosed/guarded blades are permitted.
<br /> ❑Cutting blade/laceration risk Use cut-resistant heavy work gloves,as applicable.
<br /> ❑Flying objects,eye hazards ❑Ground surface penetration(hand auger,probe)—requires utility clearance;see D.11."Utility-Related Hazards"
<br /> ❑Other,describe above HSE Program Documents:HSE SOP-640:Manual Hand Tools
<br /> ® MUSCULOSKELETAL(MSK)HAZARDS M For tools requiring high exertion(shovel,hand auger,sledgehammer,pickaxe,slide hammer,similar):do
<br /> M Risk of acute physical MSK trauma stretching exercises to prepare,clear hazard zone,use stable body position,take rest breaks,avoid overexertion.
<br /> (strains,sprains,soft tissue injuries) M For recognized musculoskeletal hazard,acute or chronic,resulting from unsafe acute exertion,or
<br /> M Risk of cumulative/chronic MSK ergonomic/repetitive motion/cumulative trauma risks,seek advice on controls from Corporate HSE Dept.
<br /> trauma,repetitive motion injuries
