A) 'Total Organic Vapors <br /> A direct reading photozonization detection (PID) meter (HNU PI 101 <br /> or equivalent) will be used to monitor the concentrations of organic <br /> vapors in the Work area. Measurements will be taken at least once <br /> every 15 minutes during surface and subsurface sample collection. <br /> The meter will be calibrated for benzene. Total organic vapor <br /> measurements will be used to determine the appropriate levels of <br /> respiratory protection and conditions for site evacuation. Total <br /> organic vapor concentrations in the workers breathing zone in excess <br /> of 10 ppm above background will trigger an upgrade from level D to <br /> level C protection. Breathing zone concentrations in excess of 250 <br /> ppm will stop the work on--site until the work zone concentrations are <br /> reduced to below 250 ppm. <br /> EMPLOYEE TRAINING AND INFORMATION <br /> All personnel working have completed the certified 40 hour Osha hazardous <br /> waste training course, and have been trained in the following objectives: <br /> o Workers are aware of potential hazards they <br /> may encounter. <br /> o Knowledge and skills necessary to perform the <br /> work with minimal risk to works health and safety. <br /> o Familiarization with the Site Safety plan and <br /> site-speciric requirements. <br /> The training plan for this site encompasses: <br /> o Potential physical and chemical health hazards. <br /> o Respiratory protection, rationale, use, maintenance <br /> and fit testing. <br /> o Protective clothing, use and maintenance. <br /> o Entry, exit and decontamination procedures. <br /> o Documentation and record keeping procedures. <br /> 4 <br />
