INTRODUCTION Purpose The primary purpose of this Site Health and Safety Plan (SHASP) is to provide Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) field personnel and contractors with an understanding of the potential chemical and physical hazards that exist or may arise while the tasks of this underground diesel storage tank removal project are being performed. Secondarily, this information defines the safety precautions necessary to respond to such hazards. Due to the low hazard potential associated with diesel fuel, only Level D personal protective equipment (PPE) will be addressed. A copy of this SHASP will be on-site at all times. An additional copy will be kept and transported along with any injured worker to the medical facility (Building 877) for use by the medical staff. The expiration date of this SHASP is May 1994. Objective The objective of this SHASP is to ensure the safety of all field personnel, contractors and the surrounding community. Project staff and approved contractors will acknowledge and adhere to the policies and procedures established by LLNL. Accordingly, all personnel assigned to this project will read this SHASP and sign the Acknowledgement Statement (page i of the Closure Plan), to certify that they have read, understand and will abide by the SHASP. Tailgate Meetings A tailgate meeting will be conducted by the Site Safety Officer (SSO) prior to each day's activities to review the following: • location of health and safety supplies on-site • location of nearby telephones, sanitation facilities and potable water • emergency procedures • decontamination procedures An Industrial Hygienist, designated by Environmental Safety and Health (ES&H) Team 5, will attend the tailgate meeting.
