Safety Belts, Scaffolds, Fall Protection - Safety belts are required when working 6 feet or higher off the ground or floor, and near open-sided floors and platforms.
J.
Spill Policy Procedures that outline personnel actions relating to spill prevention control and countermeasures for oil, hazardous substances, and hazardous waste to minimize the potential for discharges of these materials into navigable U.S. waters.
1.
Condition Detection of hazardous waste or hazardous waste substances spills is limited to the visible loss of integrity of the container which is known to contain such materials or the accumulation of such materials outside their containers.
An oil spill may be indicated by:

Individual Action All persons employed at Vogtle are responsible for reporting spills, leaks, or suspected leaks of oil, hazardous substances, or hazardous waste. The person finding such an event is to notify their immediate supervisoi, iiis Erargency Coordinator and/or the shif t supervisor giving the following information.
a.
Time, place, type of iecident (spill, leak, fire, release, etc.), and your name and present location.
b.
Name and quantity of materials involved.
c.
Appropriate actions taken to contain the spill, leak, fire, and/or release, d.
Type cleanup in progress.
e.
Bodily injuries, extent of injuries, and hospital where injured person (s) is(are) taken if applicable.
f.
Potential hazards to human health or the environment outside plant boundaries and direction of flow of the potential hazard.
g.
Natural disaster associated with incident, if applicable, i.e.,
tornado, earthquake, flood, or lightning.
h.
Indivi5ual notified by name and title.
3.
In the event of a fire or explosion, the person finding the situation should undertake the following possible actions:
a.
Check that fire doors are closed to isolate the affected area.

NOTE!! Action should be taken with personnel safety being the most important considerations.
In the event of a chemical spill, the Emergency Coordinator should take appropriate actions depending on the chemical properties.
K.
Heavy Equipment, Cranes, and Hoists Stay clear of work operations involving heavy equipment unless you are directly associated with the work.
In areas where cranes and hoists are in use, be cautious of overhead loads and stay beneath them. Personnel using hoisting equipment (such as tuggers, spyder, baskets, etc.) are to be properly trained and authorized.
L.
Glass Containers No glass containers are allowed on the construction project.

LESSON OUTLINE:
NOTES 1.
The barricade policy must be followed to ensure l
overall consistency and prevent possible injuries.
This is particularly vital with the stages of equipment testing for turnover and startup.
2.
Yellow Ban-Gard Tape, 3" wide with black lettering continuously repeating the message is used to prevent access for specific reasons.
3.
The following are a list of the barricade signs:
a.
"Do Not Enter" - used when hazardous areas forbid any entry into the area.
b.
" Men Working Overhead" - used when working, welding, cutting, rigging, etc., poses a hazard to anyone below.
c.
"High Voltage" - used when the danger of Whac is hi-podding?
access into areas where high voltage, testing of energized equipment, hi-podding, etc. exists.
d.
"Fadiation Area" - used for areas where radiographic testing is in progress. The
- magenta (purple) and yellow stranded ropex
- tith radiation signs attached, along with flashing red lights are to be placed at every accessible point of entry.
4.
Yellow Tape, 2" wide with a black strip along the center is used to identify and designate storage areas when required in the power block.
5.
Barricades are to always be at least double stranded, at levels chest and below the waist high, at all points of entry or access into areas of exposure.
6.
Barricades are to be taken down and removed immediately when the hazard is corrected or resolved and the area is safe.
7.
Employees entering or directing others to enter a barricaded area unauthorized is a serious matter and will be handled accordingly.
8.
By following the barricade procedure, we will prevent any employee from being exposed to a potentialhazardunkpowfng}yduetothearea not being properly M or posted.
