facility designated for the site. In the event of a major <br />injury or where extensive movement of the worker may cause <br />further injury, local emergency medical personnel will be <br />contacted. If the worker can be moved out of the exclusion <br />zone safely, efforts will be made to do so. If not, <br />emergency personnel will be admitted to assist the employee. <br />Emergency personnel will be provided with tyveks, PVC <br />booties, and latex gloves if contact with contamination is <br />likely in responding to the emergency. <br />Any emergency vehicles entering the exclusion zone are <br />expected to encounter only minimal contamination since site <br />activities will have ceased in order to tend to the <br />emergency. As such, decontamination should not be a concern <br />for emergency vehicles, but will be considered on a case-by- <br />case basis. The immediate life and health of the injured <br />personnel is considered to be of utmost importance in <br />comparison to decontamination of an emergency vehicle, since <br />contamination is expected to pose a negligible risk to the <br />public at large. <br />10.0 TRAINING REQUIREMENTS <br />All personnel on site will have training and/or prior <br />experience which meets the requirements set forth in 29 CFR <br />1910.120 (e) prior to the initiation of any on the site. <br />This includes a 40 hour course and an annual 8 hour refresher <br />training. Field supervisors will have an additional 8 hour <br />course for safety management. All site personnel will be <br />adequately trained to perform the work assigned. <br />All on site personnel will receive site specific training <br />which includes: <br />Site Chemical Hazards (with acute and chronic effects) <br />Identified Physical Hazards <br />Site Control and Decontamination <br />Emergency Plan <br />Protection Levels by Job Assignment <br />Proper Use and Maintenance of Protective Equipment <br />All regulatory personnel and visitors needing access to the <br />exclusion zone will be expected to demonstrate compliance <br />with these training requirements. <br />Site safety meetings will be held to appraise personnel of <br />specific hazards, changes in the health and safety plan, or <br />other topics determined by the site Health and Safety <br />Officer. These meetings are normally held daily at the <br />beginning of the shift. Specific meetings will be held at <br />the initiation of field activities, and at the time of any <br />crew or subcontractor crew changes. <br />
