0 0 <br /> Any offsite release or suspected offsite release of hazardous substance will be <br /> immediately reported to project Safety and Health Officer. Any suspected exposure to <br /> hazardous substances resulting from PPE failure, accident or any other reasons will be <br /> reported to project Safety and Health Officer in writing within 24 hours. <br /> To prevent the release of uncontrolled emissions from contaminated soil, all excavated soil <br /> will be segregated and covered with 6-mil visqueen. When prevailing conditions or <br /> operations result in the production of dust, dust suppression measures will be <br /> implemented including the application of water. Working up wind will also be practiced <br /> where possible. The onsite contaminants (petroleum hydrocarbons) are suspected to be <br /> present in the soil. Therefore, Level C protection will be required when dusty conditions <br /> prevail. <br /> C5.4 Personal Protective Equipment <br /> The hazards anticipated to be present during the described remedial tasks will probably <br /> require limited levels of protection. Level D protection will be worn by field personnel during <br /> the excavation and loading of the contaminated material. As conditions warrant, protection <br /> levels may be upgraded. The SHO in conjunction with the project Safety and Health <br /> Officer will determine the appropriate personal protection level. Based upon present and <br /> historic knowledge of the site, Level A or B protection will not be required for the <br /> . operations detailed in this work plan. <br /> The equipment necessary for each level of protection is detailed below. <br /> LEVEL D- Level D consists of the basic work uniform which includes: <br /> • Hard hat <br /> • Safety Glasses <br /> • Steel-toed, steekshank rubber boots <br /> • Tyvek coveralls with hood (when working with USTs, piping, and contaminated soil) <br /> • Nitrile or neoprene gloves <br /> • Cloth and/or leather gloves for equipment operators <br /> • An immediately available half-face, air-purifying respirator with NIOSH-approved <br /> combination organic vapor/high efficiency particulate (HEPA) cartridges. <br /> LEVEL C - Level C consists of the below listed protective equipment: <br /> • Respirator with organic vapor/NEPA cartridges <br /> • Saranex coveralls <br /> • Hard Hat <br /> • Safety Glasses <br /> • Steektoed, steekshank rubber boots <br /> • Nitrile or neoprene gloves <br /> C-13 <br />
