SITIT Site Health and Safety Plan • nnnnn Service Station # 000 S. J. WEAVER CONTRACTING 77777 XXXXX, CA ``L►ccc 9.1 Emergency Routes and Procedures In the event of an emergency, which necessitates an evacuation of the site, on-site personnel shall be notified to evacuate the area by immediate emergency exit. The Project Foreman shall control the scene until the appropriate municipal and state agencies arrive onsite. Please refer to Attachment III, Escape Plan and Route. 9.2 Emergency Equipment Equipment shall be available on-site to handle emergencies such as injuries, fires and spills. This equipment includes first aid supplies, fire extinguishers, and personal protective equipment and spill response equipment. 9.3 Medical Treatment/First Aid On-site supervisory personnel are trained in CPR and First Aid and shall have first aid kits for use in a medical emergency. First Aid Kits and an eye wash station will be located in the main support areas. Community emergency services (EMS, Fire, and Police) shall be notified immediately if deemed their resources are needed on site. If necessary, the injured or sick party shall be taken to a local area hospital. Please refer to Attachment I, Route to Area Hospital for direction to the area hospital and Emergency Telephone Numbers. 9.4 Spill Confinement and Containment Where minor or major spills, leaks or ruptures may occur, adequate quantities of spill containment equipment (ground clay, vermiculite, pads, booms, pillows, etc.) shall be kept available and ready or use. Once a spill has been discovered, the first step is to determine the nature of the spill, its size, and its direction of travel. The Project Foreman shall be notified immediately and he will determine what actions will be taken to contain the spill. Prior to entering a spill area, it is necessary to protect oneself from the adverse effects of the spilled material. Do not enter the area alone. The decision to use confinement techniques, such as diversion, diking, and retention, should be based on the availability of time, personnel, equipment and supplies. It should also be made with a review of the potential harmful effects (review of MSDS) of the leaking material downhill and downwind of the spill. After a spill is contained, the Project Foreman shall determine the appropriate cleanup and disposal methods with input from the client and their representatives. Material spills could occur during line breaking and draining, removing liquids and sludges from containers. Ultimately, a spill could contaminate storm water systems or cause a release of vapors to the air. A spill of fuel could also ignite. A small spill should be cleaned up immediately, but should not trigger activation of these procedures. S.J. WEAVER CONTRACTING INC. Page 14 000-hasp.doc
