1900, Monday through Friday. On site field work shall take place during daylight hours only. <br />The remaining time can be used for travel and mobilization/demobilization. Should weather <br />impede the progress of the project, Saturday may be used for maintenance and make up of <br />lost work with adequate prior notice. Deviation from this schedule will require prior written <br />authorization from the IT Project Manager. <br />The project certified industrial hygienist, Mr. Colin Brownlow, is the health and safety <br />officer. In H&S absence, the Project Manager or Site Manager will assume health and safety <br />responsibilities. <br />3.3 Site Description <br />The site is near the north west comer of the DDRW facility (Figure 1-1). The scope of work <br />is to remove a 250 gallon gasoline tank. <br />3.4 Hazard Assessment and Risk Analysis <br />Activities to be conducted are essentially limited to quantifying the amount of stock piled <br />soils and soil sampling. The hazards to be encountered during these activities can be divided <br />into the following phases: site mobilization; and excavation, tank removal, and soil sampling. <br />3.4.1 Site Mobilization and Demobilization <br />The personnel and equipment necessary to perform this project will be mobilized from IT <br />Martinez. No chemical exposures are anticipated during this phase of the project. The <br />principle hazards associated with mobilization and demobilization are: ergonomic hazards <br />associated with loading and unloading of equipment and material; and traffic and other <br />hazards associated with transport of personnel and materials. <br />3.4.2 Excavation, Tank Removal and Soil Sampling <br />The physical and safety hazards can be subdivided into four categories: heat and cold stress; <br />noise exposures; slip/pinch/impact hazards and excavation hazards. <br />3.4.2.1 Heat and Cold Stress <br />The effects of adverse climatic conditions can include physical discomfort, reduced efficiency, <br />illness, and increased accident probability. Heat stress is of particular concern while wearing <br />personal protective equipment (PPE) since these garments prevent evaporative body cooling. <br />If an individual suffers from heat stress/heat stroke, they will immediately be taken to a <br />MZ107-07-92/EES/ENG/2054r 3-3 <br />
