1.12 GENERAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Blazosky Associates, Inc. 01000-8 June 2009

X:\CCDPW 08008\Bid Docs\Addendum 1\Specifications.docx

A. Workers shall be advised of the presence of methane or hydrogen sulfide gas emanating from the natural decomposition of refuse buried at or near the job site and take precautions to ensure the safety of workers and the public.

B. The CONTRACTOR shall designate one of its onsite crew members who is trained in the use of gas detection monitoring equipment and safety equipment as a Safety Monitor. He shall be present onsite at all times with appropriate instruments to test for oxygen deficiency and the presence of methane or hydrogen sulfide gas. An Emmet CGS-10 Gas Detector, or similar unit, shall be available for this purpose. The Safety Monitor shall periodically test the excavation areas, utility vault, structure, etc., for safe working conditions and be responsible for the appropriate safety equipment being available at the site.

C. Workers shall not be allowed to work alone at any time in an excavation. Work

parties of at least two shall be mandatory, with one worker outside of possible gas effects. Access to the open trench shall be via ladders spaced no further than 25 feet apart. Trenches shall be benched to prevent possible caving in on workers.

D. No welding shall be permitted in trenches, enclosed areas, or over refuse filled areas

unless performed over ground mats or in areas of the site approved by the Safety Monitor and Construction Manager.

E. Workmen shall not be permitted to enter excavations where there is an oxygen

deficiency (oxygen levels below 19.5% by volume) or a combustible mixture of methane (methane levels between 5 and 15% by volume) without taking precautionary measures.

F. All trenches shall be covered or completed at the end of each work day. G. All boreholes shall be completed at the end of each work day.

H. As construction progresses, all valves, pipe and other conduit openings shall be

closed as soon as installed to prevent the migration of gases through the pipeline system and to prevent extraneous matter from entering the system.

I. Smoking shall be prohibited in or near open excavations and in the vicinity of pipe-

laying activities. Smoking is prohibited anywhere onsite except in designated areas. J. Fire extinguishers shall be available and be rated at least A, B and C and are atleast

10-pound size.

K. Landfill gas (LFG) is comprised of approximately equal portions of carbon dioxide (C02) and methane (CH4) with other trace constituents. It is a product formed by the anaerobic decomposition of refuse. Methane gas is the primary component of natural gas, and is combustive when the methane concentration in air is between 5 and 15 percent by volume. The 5 percent level is called the lower explosive limit (LEL). Below 5 percent, there is insufficient methane for combustion. Above 15 percent, called the upper explosive limit (UEL), there is insufficient oxygen for combustion. However, it is important to note that a concentration of methane above

Blazosky Associates, Inc. 01000-9 June 2009

X:\CCDPW 08008\Bid Docs\Addendum 1\Specifications.docx

15 percent is considered at least as dangerous as a concentration between 5 and 15 percent, because as the methane dilutes with air, it will pass through the explosive range. When gas concentrations are low, it is common to express methane concentration as a percentage of the LEL. For example, 100 percent LEL is 5 percent methane in air, and 50 percent LEL is 2.5 percent methane in air. Because the decomposition of buried refuse typically produces methane at concentrations ranging from 40 to 55 percent, methane will always pass through the combustible range as it vents to the atmosphere and dilutes with air. Methane is lighter than air, and will rise in the absence of typical barriers. LFG, being a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, may be heavier than or lighter than air depending on the specific mixture. LFG may escape from the refuse, both vertically through the landfill cover, and laterally through surrounding soils. LFG moves in response to the pressure buildup within the landfill and through diffusion in the absence of a pressure differential. Diffusive movement nearly always produces explosive range concentrations of methane.

CONTRACTOR shall cease construction activities or operations when any concentration of methane at or above 10% LEL is present.

1.13 PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING ON REFUSE LANDFILLS

A. Workers shall be cautioned regarding the potential unstable soil and refuse material and the strong possibility of caving during drilling and excavating operations. All workers entering open excavations shall be secured with a safety belt, harness, or short rope to enhance rescue operations in case of accidents.

B. Workers in the excavation area shall have access to acid vapor masks for temporary

protection in the event hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas is present and triggers the H2S alarm on the gas detector. Vacate the area immediately when H2S is detected.

C. Construction equipment shall be equipped with vertical exhaust and spark arrests. D. Motors utilized in refuse excavation areas shall be explosion-proof. E. Start-up and shutdown of equipment shall not be done in areas of exposed refuse. F. Soil shall be stockpiled adjacent to operations in areas of exposed refuse for fire

fighting purposes. The most effective way to extinguish landfill fires is to smother the fire with soil (which eliminates available combustion oxygen).

G. Any refuse exposed during construction activities shall be covered as soon as

possible after exposure with at least a 6-inch layer of earth or deposited into approved containers. In no event shall the refuse remain exposed overnight.

H. All refuse excavated during construction activities shall be disposed of at the working

face of the landfill. I. Inhalation of landfill gases shall be avoided as much as possible. Such gases (or

oxygen deficient air) may cause nausea and dizziness, which could lead to accidents.

Blazosky Associates, Inc. 01000-10 June 2009

X:\CCDPW 08008\Bid Docs\Addendum 1\Specifications.docx

J. Workers shall avoid contact with exposed refuse where possible. Irritants or

hazardous materials may be present. K. Workers shall not leave open wells or excavations unattended. Open boreholes and

excavations must be covered to prevent accidental entry. Wells must be barricaded, flagged, and protected sufficiently to prevent entry of dirt and run off water.

L. The CONTRACTOR shall provide such equipment and medical facilities as are

necessary to supply basic first aid to anyone who may be injured in connection with the Work. In an event immediate removal and/or hospitalization of site personnel is required the CONTRACTOR shall contact 911.

M. The OWNER AND/OR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER may stop the Work if in his sole

judgment safety laws, or safe work practices are not being observed; provided, however, that none of the foregoing shall relieve the CONTRACTOR from being fully responsible and liable for meeting all safety laws and safe work practices in connection with the Work nor should the failure of such persons to stop the Work be construed to mean that all safety laws and safe work practices are being met. Notwithstanding the above, the CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for the compliance with safety laws and maintaining safe work practices.

N. Prior to construction start-up, CONTRACTOR shall prepare a site specific Health and

Safety Plan (the “HASP”). If the CONTRACTOR does not have the capability to prepare the HASP, the CONTRACTOR shall contract for the preparation of the HASP. The CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for the preparation, monitoring, management, and enforcement of the HASP. At a minimum, the HASP shall address the health and safety related information contained within this document. The CONTRACTOR is encouraged to include any other information that the CONTRACTOR feels is relevant. CONTRACTOR shall submit a copy of the HASP to the OWNER AND/OR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER prior to starting construction. Submittal of the CONTRACTOR’s HASP to the OWNER AND/OR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER is to inform the parties of the details of the program. Submittal of the HASP does not, in any way, impose a responsibility on the OWNER AND/OR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER for adequacy of the program nor does it relieve the CONTRACTOR from full responsibility to comply with, and liability for, the appropriate laws, rules or regulations regarding health and safety of onsite personnel.

O. CONTRACTOR shall hold a daily “tail gate” safety briefing prior to beginning work

each day.
