The boundaries of hazardous and potentially hazardous areas will be identified by cordons, <br /> barricades, or emergency traffic cones or posts, depending on conditions. If such areas are <br /> left unattended and are accessible to the public, signs warning of the danger and forbidding <br /> entry must be placed around the perimeter. Trenches and other large holes must be guarded <br /> with wooden or metal barricades spaced no further than 20 feet apart and connected with <br /> yellow or yellow and black nylon tape not less than 3/4-inches wide. The barricades must <br /> be placed no less than two feet from the edge of the excavation or hole. <br /> Entry into hazardous areas shall be limited to individuals who must work in those areas. <br /> Unofficial visitors are not permitted to enter hazardous areas while work in those areas is <br /> in progress. Official visitors should be discouraged from entering hazardous areas, and will <br /> only be allowed to enter if they agree to abide by the provisions of this document, follow <br /> orders issued by the SSO, and are informed of the potential dangers that could be <br /> encountered in the areas. <br /> 6.9 DECONTAMINATION <br /> Field decontamination of personnel and equipment is not required except when contamination <br /> is obvious (visually or by odor). Recommended decontamination procedures follow. <br /> 6.9.1 Personnel Decontamination <br /> Gasoline and diesel should be removed from skin using a mild detergent and water. <br /> Hot water is more effective than cold. Liquid dishwashing detergent is more effective than <br /> hand soap. <br /> 6.9.2 Equipment Decontamination <br /> Gloves, respirators, hardhats, boots and goggles should be cleaned as described under <br /> personnel; however, if boots do not become clean after washing with detergent and water, <br /> wash them with a strong solution of trisodium phosphate and hot water. <br /> 80500000 H:\HEALTH\FNLHSP AP^I 21. 1997 <br /> FEMA USTB Fiml G.mric HSP 19 <br />
