A direct reading PID / FID organic vapor analyzer (OVA) will be utilized during soil excavation activities per SCAQMD rule 1166. Attachment 11 South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 1166 Contaminated Soil Mitigation Plan. Once contamination is encountered, all operational areas will be monitored prior to the start of work each day and periodically throughout the day. Air monitoring will concentrate on the workers breathing zone. Real-time air monitoring equipment calibration will be checked in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendation, prior to field use. 8.1 Combustible Gases / Oxygen Levels A combination combustible gas / oxygen meter (LEU02) will be on site at all times to monitor for explosive and oxygen enriched / deficient atmospheres. 8.2 Operational action Levels A decision-making scheme for an upgrade in levels of protection and / or withdrawal of personnel from an area based on atmospheric hazards is outlined in the table below. In general the decision making scheme will be followed, with the decision dependent upon actual site condition and contaminants. When site contamination conditions necessitate upgrading to Level C, S.J. Weaver Contracting Inc. will stop operations and a determination will be made for the appropriate course of action. 9.0 EMERGENCY CONTINGENCY PLAN This section describes the emergency response plan that shall be implemented by S.J. Weaver Contracting Inc. employees to handle emergencies. It is expected that modifications may be necessary upon actual site set-up and conditions. During the site safety meetings held periodically, all employees will be trained in and reminded of the location of this plan, the procedures outlined in this plan, the communication systems and evacuation routes used during an emergency. On a continual basis, individual personnel should be constantly alert for indicators of potentially hazardous situations and for signs and symptoms in themselves and others that warn of hazardous conditions and exposures. Rapid recognition of dangerous situations can avert an emergency. All on-site employees have a role in mitigating an emergency incident. The Project Foreman has primary responsibility for responding to and directing emergency response operations to correct emergency situations.
