04,,17/96 WED 13:11 FAX 3054994516 KE CtRTIS IM006 <br />Due to the minimal exposure potential of the contamination, only moderate hazards <br />exist, We will minimize the risk impacts of workers and the public by the use of personal <br />protective equipment and barricades such as delineators, caution tape, and fencing. <br />A. AIR EXPOSURE MONITORING: <br />Breathing air analysis measuring the airborne concentrations shall be performed <br />when significant surface disturbances are involved. Monitoring shall take place with <br />direct reading Instruments and detector tubes shall be used if necessary. The Site <br />Safety Officer will determine if and when downwind perimeter monitoring is <br />needed. Action level for VOC's will be set at 300 ppm for level "C" respiratory <br />equipment and light chemical clothing. <br />B. NOISE EXPOSURE MONITORING: <br />A potential for elevated noise exposure exists when working around heavy <br />equipment. Nearing protection is always required under these conditions. <br />49.40 f E R <br />A. SAFETY EQUIPMENT TO BE USED BY FIELD WORKERS (hi-lited): <br />Work boots, hard hat, vinyl inner gloves, outer gloves (nitrile, leather, rubber), safety <br />glasses, hearing protection, tyvek suits (standard, polyethylene, saronex), fire <br />retardant clothing. <br />Air -purifying respirator and appropriate cartridges (if warranted by breathing air <br />monitoring results). <br />Full body harness, shock absorbing lanyard, retractable lifeline, emergency <br />breathing air, orange vest (if warranted by tank installation/removal procedures). <br />B. LEVELS OF PROTECTION: <br />Explanation - Protective equipment selected is based on the type of contaminants, <br />their concentrations, and the routes of entry, 300 ppm VOC's is the action level from <br />li hlo to " 4" <br />W.t` 1111IONKX311 <br />The site shall be controlled to reduce the possibility of translocation of the contaminants <br />by personnel/equipment and dangerous levels of airborne dust, vapors, etc. This shall be <br />accomplished by setting up physical barriers based upon the amount of space needed <br />to perform the work and the air monitoring results, <br />
