WOLIN & SONS, INC. GENERAL ENGINEERING CONTRACTORS P. O. Box 98 SUTTER CREEK. CALIFORNIA 95685 209 267-9111 CONTRACTOR'S LICENSE NO.236050 JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS: The original excavation created by the removal of the underground tanks has been backfilled and paved over. The initial borings will be done with a truck mounted drill. Temporary barricades and construction caution tape will be used during the boring operation to keep unauthorized personnel from the area being tested. If after test results of soil samples indicate that a contamination exists, a supplemental plan of the job hazards will be submitted when it is determined the extent and how the contamination will be mitigated. Existing underground piping will be located to determine if any conflict exists as to the proposed boring. Underground Service Alert (USA) at 1- (800) - 642-2222 will be notified to locate underground lines affected by this work. If lines are found to conflict with the proposed work, appropriate measures will be taken to avoid disruption of services. A potential chemical hazard may exist. The site investigation being proposed is to determine if the location and use of the removed underground storage tanks allowed through leakage and/or spillage of the stored fuels contam- inated the surrounding soils. JOB HAZARD SUMMARY: This phase of the project is only to assess the site for possible contamination and to determine the extent of contamination, if any exists. With proper regard to safe working procedures, as per OSHA requirements, this phase of the work' s potential for health or environmental risk is minimal . If a potential health or environmental health hazard becomes apparent, all operations during this phase will cease, and an assessment will be made with appropriate steps taken to mitigate the problem. EXPOSURE MONITORING PLAN: For the protection of the crew, an organic vapor detector also will be used to measure the volatile concentrations in the breathing zone prior to and during the collection of the samples . Total ionizable hydrocarbon readings in excess of 1 ppmv may necessitate respiratory protection for the affected crew members. This requirement is included in the complete field health and safety plan developed for the project prior to the start of field work. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS - LEVEL D: Basic safety equipment and apparel shall consist of safety goggles, hard hats, steel toe shoes, and protective overalls. All onsite equipment ie: drill rig and trucks, shall have fire extinguishers. At least one of the vehicles shall have a first-aid kit. no-The organic vapor detector, either a photovac (TIP) with a photoionization detector (PID) or a Foxboro flame ionization detector (FID) will be used in the breathing zone prior to and during the collection of the samples.
