Use remote <br />mechanical means if possible or protective shields. <br />Perform bench -scale tests prior to mixing. Do not mix <br />unknowns. <br />Potential for thermal stress due to use PPE in warm Implement work / rest regiment and maintain proper <br />an hot weather. hydration. <br />Potential for chemical exposure. Wear appropriate PPE. <br />13. Soil Sampling. <br />r • -i <br />Potential skin contact with petroleum products, Avoid unnecessary contact and wear appropriate <br />waste, or mixtures that leaked into surrounding soils. PPE. <br />Slipping or tripping hazards. <br />Establish good housekeeping practices, proper work <br />zones, clear traffic pathways and remove tripping and slipping <br />hazards. <br />Possibility of cave in. Use benching techniques or provide mechanical <br />shoring. Avoid entry into unshored excavations. Use backhoe <br />to obtain sample when excavation depth exceeds 4 feet. <br />Potential for chemical spill or release if the container Maintain awareness of container condition, stage <br />is broken, dropped, knocked over. chemicals out of primary work area, and work over polyethylene <br />sheeting. <br />Potential for thermal stress due to use PPE in warm Implement work / rest regiment and maintain proper <br />and hot weather. hydration. <br />10 <br />
