April 2013 <br /> associates.iaa. <br /> Project No. 1301-0621 in E6:,®�l TS& <br /> Fire and Explosion. Gas or sewer lines can contain hazardous levels of explosive or <br /> toxic gases, which may pose a fire risk. The risk of fire on site may also stem from the presence <br /> of vegetation, heat and fuel sources from construction equipment and site vehicles, or from the <br /> presence of combustible gases or vapors in contaminated soil and/or wells. The potential <br /> exposure to fire and explosion hazards is considered low. <br /> Traffic Hazards. Work activities along roadways, parking areas, and entrance and exit <br /> areas create exposure to traffic hazards. Field activities will occur near a loading/unloading <br /> area of the facility. Vehicle traffic does occur in the area of field activities. The potential <br /> exposure to traffic hazards is considered moderate. Therefore, appropriate measures, ie cones, <br /> barricades, will be employed to protect workers from loading/unloading area traffic. <br /> GENERAL SAFETY RULES <br /> 1. There will be no eating, drinking, or smoking within the safe perimeter set up. <br /> 2. Fire extinguishers will be onsite on or near Padre Associates, Inc.'s vehicle. <br /> 3. A first aid kit is located within Padre Associates, Inc. vehicle. <br /> EQUIPMENT <br /> Personal Protective Equipment. On the basis of the evaluation of potential hazards, <br /> the level of protection deemed appropriate for this site is Level D. If organic vapor <br /> concentrations in the breathing zone exceed 40 parts per million by volume (ppmv), EPA Level <br /> C personal protective equipment will be used. These concentrations are based on personnel <br /> exposure limits (PELs) and threshold limit values (TLVs) of the various contaminants <br /> anticipated, with some consideration given to possible contaminants encountered in <br /> combination. <br /> Level D equipment includes: <br /> hard hat <br /> steel toe and shank boots <br /> safety glasses or goggles <br /> gloves <br /> Level C equipment includes: <br /> full or half face respirator <br /> dual cartridge with organic vapor/acid gas hepa filtration <br /> steel toe neoprene boots <br /> Tyvek suits <br /> latex inner gloves <br /> PVC outer gloves <br /> duct tape <br /> 13.0621_Kaiser Stockton_TWP-HSP_revised <br /> -AS - <br />
