r Site Safety and Health Plan lr�rracon ±19.41 Acres Vacant Land ■ Manteca, California June 12, 2017 ■ Terracon Project No. NB177049 In the event that a Terracon employee does not report to the designated rally point within 5 minutes of the evacuation alarm, the SSO will perform an immediate assessment of site conditions. If site conditions do not pose an immediate hazard to life or health, the SSO will initiate search and rescue efforts utilizing two crew members attired in appropriate personal protective equipment. 15.0 THERMAL STRESS 15.1 Heat Stress Whenever ambient temperature exceeds 70 degrees F and personal protective equipment requirements are Level D or Level D modified, the following heat stress monitoring and preventive measures will be implemented: • Mobilize at least one gallon of water for each field employee during each day of site activity. • Periodically observe personnel for signs of heat stress (excessive perspiration, flushed skin, nausea, etc.). • Move affected workers out of contaminant zones, • Loosen protective clothing and permit them to rest Have conscious, affected personnel drink at least one 8 oz. glass of cool water. • Check pulse; personnel should not return to work until pulse rate is less than 90 beats/min. 15.2 Heat Stress in Level C/Level B PPE In addition to the above precautions, the following procedures will be implemented whenever the ambient temperature exceeds 70° F and personal protective equipment requirements are Level C or above. Ambient temperature will be measured with a dry bulb thermometer and percent cloud cover will be estimated: 1.0 = No Clouds 0.75 = 25% Clouds 0.5 = 50% Clouds 0.25 = 75% Clouds 0.0 = 100% Clouds). Calculate the adjusted temperature using the following formula: ADJUSTED TEMPERATURE = 13(% CLOUD COVER) + DRY TEMPERATURE Rest regimens will be implemented at frequencies dependent upon adjusted temperature. Monitor pulse during each rest period. 23
