Appendices (attach as needed) A: SITE-SPECIFIC HEAT ILLNESS PREVENTION PLAN- REQUIRED FOR ALL WORK IN CALIFORNIA Project#&Site Location: Stockton Phase II ESA, 303 N El Dorado St, Stockton, CA 95202 Date: 11/07/2024 AND 11/14/2024 Kleinfelder On-Site Lead/Supervisor: Isaac Rubalcava Phone: 909-637-7340 This Heat Illness Prevention Plan (HIPP)applies to employees of Kleinfelder who work in outdoor areas of employment or on job tasks where the environmental risk factors for heat illness are present, and are at risk for developing heat illnesses if they do not protect themselves appropriately. This plan is to be used only for work conducted in Level D PPE; non-HazWOPER field work; Construction Materials Testing; or short-duration (less than 1 day), non-chemical exposure projects only. For individuals working without direct Kleinfelder supervision (i.e., alone, remote, as a 3rd party on site), the individual will be considered the On-Site Lead/Supervisor for the project as it relates to this Heat Illness Prevention Plan. I. Standard General Requirements For all tasks where the temperature exceeds 80OF while on this site/project: • All Kleinfelder employees subject to Kleinfelder's Medical Surveillance Program shall have received appropriate clearance. For those not subject to the Surveillance Program on site visits or short-duration tasks on-site, the Kleinfelder lead/on-site supervisor shall discuss the individual's risk for Heat Illnesses and note any individual sensitivities. • All employees and supervisors shall have completed Heat Illness Prevention Training • Daily tailgate meetings shall also include the review of the site-specific Heat Illness Prevention Plan, heat illness prevention methods, symptoms, and emergency response procedures, including how to access emergency personnel. • Site leads/supervisors, prior to the start of work, shall check the current temperature, humidity, and weather forecast for the nearest weather station to site via either smart-phone weather application or the internet. The lead/supervisor will also check current conditions every 2-3 hours. If internet or cellular service is not available while onsite, a portable thermometer in an unshaded area on-site shall be referenced. • Site leads/supervisors shall refer to the NOAA Heat Index(attached for reference in Section V111)and determine appropriate precautions required, and when necessary, adjust or stop work. • Employees are encouraged to take shaded rest breaks at least every 2 hours, unless more frequently is required based upon workload, site conditions, heat index, or the employee has a known susceptibility to heat illnesses or exhibits preliminary symptoms of the onset of heat illness. Employees will be given no less than 10 minutes to rest in the shade, in addition to time needed to access the shade. II. Acclimatization • Site leads/Supervisors shall closely monitor new employees (<30 days with Kleinfelder), unless the new employee indicates at the time of hire that they have been doing similar work for at least 10 of the past 30 days, and for more than 4 hours per day. • New employees, with less than 30 days with Kleinfelder, or those that have not been conducting similar functions in similar environmental conditions, or any employees who have not previously worked in environments where the possibility that heat illness may occur shall be given an opportunity for their bodies to gradually be exposed to heat while on-site. Site Leads/Supervisors shall identify any new hire workers below and track their progress closely and will provide additional breaks for water, shade, and rest throughout the 14-day acclimatization period. • Managers, Project Managers, and Site Lead/Supervisors shall monitor employees for signs/symptoms of heat stress (see Section VI)during a heat wave.
