Quik Stop Markets 0 Project No. 349132-41 August 14, 1990 Page 5 Traffic hazards Personnel will set up barricades, caution tape, and delineators to ensure that traffic is safely rerouted around construction zone. As necessary, a flag person will regulate the movement of large equipment or vehicles on and off the site. All equipment will be decontaminated on-site using a pressure washer. This decontamination will be performed over plastic sheeting at the outer edge of the exclusion zone (see Figure 1). The exact location will depend on-site conditions at the time of decontamination.
