Repainting of the 1.5 Million Gallon Elevated Storage Tank Interior City of Coppell, Texas DEBRIS HANDLING All debris collected from the work sites, including water, will be tested using the TCLP method by an accredited, OSHA approved, laboratory. This testing will include analyses for the required RCRA eight metals. This debris will be considered hazardous until testing shows it to be otherwise. All debris stored on site will be stored in sealed containers in a secure location to prevent vandalism or accidental spillage. All containers will be on pallets or raised tracks to facilitate emergency relocation in the event of flooding or other unforeseen emergencies. Emergency equipment will be available to be on site within 24 hours notice to facilitate waste relocation. All personnel on the work sites will be trained in the contingency plan and proper handling of hazardous debris. Upon receipt of any necessary manifests from the Ixansporter we will immediately forward them to the owner. All overseeing and testing of the potentially baTardous waste will be accomplished by Mike Fowler, Director of Safety and Compliance for Advantage Contract Services, Inc. WASTE HANDLING & SITE STORAGE PLAN Handling of waste and storage on site is always of critical concern. Keeping this in mind we have trained all employees in the proper handling and storage of waste as well as our emergency plan. Upon initial accumulation of waste it will be tested utilizing a random grid method to detumine lead content. Non- hazardous waste will be accumulated on the ground inside the tank then transported to a disposal container for ultimate disposal. If waste is determined to be hazardous, it will be collected daily by competently trained personnel. The waste will be placed in DOT approved dnnxE or a mll-off box which will be fully sealable and located in a secured location. These containers will be labeled with weather resistant labels utilizing the following wording: DANGER - CONTAINS HAZARDOUS WASTE MATERIAL. The storage site will be on the highest portion of the work area. It will be above ground covering and located on pallets (in the case of drums) or a skid (in the case ofroll-off boxes) to facilitate removal in the event of flooding or other emergency situations. Upon filling of the waste containers disposal will be initiated. Manifesting will occur whether the waste is hazardous or not. Disposal will be accomplished per the following plans. WASTE TRANSPORTATION PLAN Transportation of hazardous waste, if necessary, will be accomplished through a licensed waste carrier or TSD facility. Upon entering a service agreement with the waste carrier or TSD facility we will forward to all appropriate parties the name, address, phone number and qualifications of such carrier or facility. TESTING LABORATORY The following laboratory will test all samples to determine lead content. The turn around time is 24 hours from receipt of the sample by the lab.

STAFEMENT OF SAFETY POLICY [t is the policy of this company to strive tbr the highest sat;~ty, standardsion our projects. The safer' and health of all our employees is a primary concern. Sal~ty is the result of carefhl attention to all company operations by those who are directly and indirectly invol,~ed. Employees at all levels must work diligently to execute the company's policy to maintain occupational safety and health. Our safety program has been developed to assure compliance with Federal, State, Local, and Client rules and regulations and to protect the health and safety of all our employees. Where i~dicated, this program can be expanded for the benefit of our employees and those working with and around us. It is the obligation of all employees to be knowledgeable of this company's standards and regulations and to implement all rules, procedures, and regulations contained therein. Regard frbr the sat~ty of the general public and our own employees is a supreme responsibility of all levels of our organization. We intend to prevent human suffering and to limit the losses Of production and efficiency. Travis R. McKenzie, President PHILOSOPHY ' I. All injuries can be prevented, 2. Management, which includes all levels through the first line supervisor foreman, is responsible for preventing occupational injuries and illnesses. Accidents indicate a deficiency in the management- employee system. 3. Satiety must be planned into every job. Attention to the problems and hazards of the work and the work place is a continuing need. 4. All work exposures which may result in injuries can be controlled; no matter what the exposure is, an effective safeguard can be provided. 5. Safety is a condition of employment. Conscientious assumption of'safety and health responsibility is e th r quired by all employees from their first day on e job. 6. It is necessary to provide training and supervision to insure that all employees work safely. With effective training programs, safety reinforcement, and supervision to teach, motivate, and sustain safety knowledge, INJURIES CAN BE ELIMINATED. 7. Safety audits must check and evaluate pertbrmance in the work place to assess the safety and health program effectiveness. 8. All deficiencies must be recognized and corrected promptly. H~Tnrds and hazardous operations must be recognized and corrected promptly. Hazards and hazardous operations must be recognized and handled appropriately. 9. [n the event of an accident or near miss incident, a thorough investigation and evaluation of the incident sequence can prevent a similar occurrence in the future. Developed information communicated to all levels of management and employees will aid in the prevention of accidents. Near miss incidents are warnings and should be exam/ned and treated accordingly. 10. lt's good business to prevent accidents, injuries and illnesses. Safety, job competence, and work efficiency go together for successful, profitable job completion. I 1. People are the most critical element of the safety and health program. Concerned, involved, and trained employees are th{~ company's greatest resources. The strength of these principles lies in their application. It is the first line supervisor that is ultimately responsible for the safety of all workers and for preventing accidents and injuries. The lead must come by example rather than just rhetoric. Knowledge isn't enough - attitude and execution make the difference. Attitudes can cause or prevent accidents. A MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING LOSSES Controlling losses is a thnction of management. There are Four (4) great/concerns of management: I. Production Control 2. Quality Control 3. Cost Control 4. Loss Control Rarely can one be changed without some effect upon the other three (3). For this reason, it is not in the best interest of this company (or its employees) to consider safety as sc)mething apart from production, quality, and cost. Since production, quality, and costs are managed on a day-to-day bases, loss control should benefil from the same treatment. We plan to manage the control of losses (Safety). IV SAFETY, LOSS qONTR. OL STANDARDS Seven (7) standards tbr work activities have been developed which cover those work activities judged to be most valuable tbr our operations. These are as tbllows: , SAFETY RULES. Rules are time savers and accident preyenters. They modi~t certain behavioral procedures to be tbllowed by all concerned, thus saving management time. Their development. reinforcement and updating are continuous activities and usually result from past experiences. PROPER JOB INSTRUCTIONS: The purpose of this work activity is to assist a man to do a job quickly, conscientiously, efficiently, safely, and correctly the very first time he does it. We take time to do it fight so we won't have to waste time doing it over. A prime tool of the first line supervisor that will reduce many of his headaches is instructing and asking questions. GROUP SAFETY MEETINGS: The purpose of this standard is to pr,ov/de the means of communicating certain vital losslcontrol information to the work force. Frequent reminders and opportunities to share knowledge are ni~cessary to train, motivate, convince, and educate employees to perform their work in the most productive and safe manner. FACILITY INSPECTIONS: Because of ongoing operations, equipment may become defective due to normal wear and tear. This creates unsafe conditions and possible "down time". Through inspections we can reduce the chance of accidents and downtime because of "sudden" failtires and we will be correcting undesirable situations before losses occur. Also, the work environment can be inspected to see if any hazards are present. ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION: The purl~se of this work activity is prevention. We can learn from losses, establish controls and follow-ups to keep similar accidents from happening. We should also be able to share findings from other areas to help ALL work areas, thus making the most of lessons learned. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES: There are certain jobs, procedures, and processes where the risk of serious injury, loss of production, and loss of efficiency are critical. It is vital that we have control over these jobs and the way they are performed. In order to do this, we must identify the methods to be used to prevent loss, establish written minimum procedures, train our people, and follow- up to assure compliance. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: The purpose of this activity is to protect the employee from known haTards through the use ofapproved safety gear to comply with OSHA standards. lndoctrination, training, and follow-up inspections are essential. v PROMOTION. TRAINING, AND EDUCATION PROGRAM While safi:ty is the responsibility of all levels of management, the prime responsibility for the sail: conduct of operations rests with the supervisor and employees. The supervisor must provide the leadership, proper example, and administrative control of the ACCIDENT PREVENTION PROGRAM. The Satbty Department and all levels of management will assist the supervisor in the necessary planning, education, and enforcement matters that make up the safety program. The company will provide First Aid Training programs and educational materials in the form of posterS, pamphlets, training films, and safety record boards to develop and maintain employee interest in the safety program. Each new employee should be thoroughly instructed in the general safety policies, rules, and procedures before being referred to his supervisor for job training or job assignment This train!rig should be doeurnentecL In turn, the supervisor should review thoroughly the safety measure of the particular job before he starts to work. The new employee should be told of all ba:'ards that may be present, how to recogniZe these baTards if encountered, how to avoid these hazards, and how tcb react in the event these haTards are encountered. Shbsequently, the employees should be followed up closely to make'sure he understands and is adhering to the safety instructions applicable to his job. The cooperation of the individual employee is vital to the success of a safety program. Continuing education is required to make certain that management and employees alike do their pan in protecting the safety of the individual at all times. Every available medium (safety books, posters, signs, newsletters, meetings, etc.) may be used to good advantage in funhefing the objectives of such a program. THE ACCIDENT PREVENTION OBJECTIVES OF THIS CORPORATION INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: To promote and implement a comprehensive safety progrmn for all employees to the end that everyone is safety conscious both on and offthe job. To eliminate or to provide suitable protection against all recognizable occupational baTards. To devise procedures and practices that minimize the risk of accidents. To instruct all employees of present hazards, how to recognize them, how to avoid the hazard, and what to do in case one becomes involved with a hazard. To disseminate as much educational information as is practical for the betterment of each individual's health and safety and the health and safety of the. family. Strengthen good, safety practices by example, by daily personal contact, by observation and evaluation, and by regular communications between the employee and supervisor. V 1.

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE CHEMICALS - GENERAL RULES To establish the sara: procedures tbr the handling, storing, mixing, and use of poisonous, toxic, corrosive, ~ammable or radioactive chemicals. Eye protection will be used in accordance with company policies. Protective clothing standard for the hazards of the chemical being handled will be wom at all times when working with such chemicals. 3. Approved emergency showers and eye wash fountains will be installed convenient to all locations where chemicals are regularlyl used. These showers and fountains will be kepl in good operating condition and accessible at all times. 4. All containers of chemicals or mixtures of chemicals shall be plainly labeled by stencil or metal tag. STORAGE: I. Any quantities of chemicals larger than enough to meet an immediate need will be stored only in the approved manner. Consult the safety section regarding any questions of approved storage. 2. Finishing materials, including paints, thinhers, cleaners, or datumable strippers will be stored only in safety cans. ISSUE: As a policy, no drum (or bulky) storage of above mateddais is allowed outside approved storage areas. It is necessary to vent containers of certain chemicals intermittently to prevent rupture from internal pressure. These containers will be vented according to recommendations of the manufacturer. All ~ammables in drums that are being used must be bonded and grounded. Each department whose operations require the use of chemicals, will submit a list of the chemicals required, stating the purpose for which they are used, to the Safety Section. The Safety Section will then, after verification of the needs~ incorporate all departments lists and furnish same to the Inspection Department. Any additions to the Mateddais auffioddzed list will be requested in writing to the Safety Section by the General Foreman of department head of the using department. In case of a temporary need as requested in writing, for a chemical, the Inspection Department may issue the using department this chemical by authority of a memo from the Safety Section even though that depamnent is not on the approved list. The Inspection Department is responsible for issuing chemicals in approved containers only. transporting or using chemicals will assure that they remain in approved containers. HANDLING: Departments Chemicals will be handled only by employees who have been authorized to do so by their supervisor after they have been thoroughly instructed regarding safe practices. PRACTICES: I. Adequate ventilation ~vill be maintained tbr all chemical mixing, processing, and storage operations. SUBJECT: WORKING IN CONFINED SPACES: GENERAL: Before employees are allowed to enter any confined workplace that could possibly contain an explosive or toxic atmosphere, the atmosphere must be tested by a competent person for ~ammability, toxicity, or oxygen deficiency. Confined workplaces would include cargo holds, tanks, enclosed machinery, or boiler spaces, etc. SPECIFIC: COMPETENT PERSON A. One or more competent persons shall be designated by the employer to make required tests. A "competent person" means a person who is capable of recognizing and evaluation employee exposure to hazardous substances or to other unsafe conditions and is capable of specifying necessary protection and precautions to be taken to ensure the safety of employees. C. Competent person must have the ability to use and interpret the readings of an oxygen indicator and a combustible gas meter. Also, he must have the ability to usei and interpret the readings of a carbon monoxide indicator and dioxide indicator. LOGGING OF INSPECTIONS AND TESTS When tests and inspections have been performed by a competent person, a record of locations, operations performed, and date, time, and test results and any instructions given, shall be made. A separate form shall be used for each test or inspection made.. This record shall be available for inspection in the immediate vicinity of the affected operation while they are in progress. D. The record shall be kept on file for a period of at least three (3) months from the date of completion of the job. , FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERES AND RESIDUES Before employees axe permitted to enter confined spaces when a potentially hazardous am'tosphere exists, the atmosphere shall be tested by a competent person to determine the concentration of ~ammable vapors or gases within the space. When tests indicate that the atmosphere in the space to be entered contains a concentration of ~ammable vapor or gas greater than ten percent (10%) of the lower explosive limit, the space will be ventilated to reduce the concentration below ten percent (10%) of the lower explosive limit before men are allowed to enter. Atmospheres immediately dangerous to li/~ are those which contain less than 16.5 % oxygen, or bv reason oi' high ioxlcity of the contaminant, or high concentration of the contaminant. such as carbon dioxide, will endanger the liti: of a person breathing them tbr even a short period of time. TOXIC ATMOSPHERES AND RESIDUES Employees are not allowed to enter a potentially haTardous confined space until the atmosphere in the space has been tested for toxic atmosphere contaminants and the space inspected for the presence of toxic or corrosive residues by a "competent person". [f tests indicate that the atmosphere in the space to be entered is above the allowable concentration, the space must be ventilated to reduce the concentration below the acceptable level. C. Tests and inspections must be made and records kept as noted in paragraph 2 of this reference. OXYGEN DEFICIENT tATMOSPHERES Oxygen deficient atmospheres may include compartments that have been sealed, spaces that have been coated and closed up, non-ventilated compmiments that have been freshly painted, cargo spaces containing cargos or residue ofcargos which absorb oxygen (such as scrap iron or various chemicals). [f the tests indicate that the atmosphere to be entered contains less than 16.5 % oxygen, the space shall be ventilated until tests indicate an oxygen content above this level. NOTE: Certain exceptions might be made to parts of paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 of this reference. Those responsible should refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1915.82. CLEANING AND OTHER COLD WORK Employees shall be permitted to perform manual cleaning to remove residue materials, scale and debris or to perform other cold work in certain spaces before they have been certified as gas-free under strict conditions. Responsible person should refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1915.12 for these conditions. B. The conditions include: Removal of as much liquid residues of flammable toxic materials as possible before employees start actual cleaning operations. ii. Continuous natural or mechanical ventilation shall be maintained to keep concentration of flammable vapors below ten percent (10%) of the lower explosive limit. iii. Tests should be made by competent person. iv. Test/inspection records must be maintained. v, Cold work only shall be permitted. vi. Only approved explosive-proof portable lamps may be used in confined spaces. Sibms shall be posted adjacent to the access to spaces prohibiting smoking and use of ope. n llames. , vii. The metallic parts of air moving devices shall be electrically bonded to the structure (vessel. etc. ). viii. All motors and control equipment shall be of explosive-proof type. ix. All such spaces must be certified and tagged "Safe to Enter" by competent person. CERTIFICATION FOR HOT WORK A, Employees shall not be permitted to engage in hot work in spaces that might be hazardous until a certificate is issued by a competent person establishing that hot work can be done safely. B. Some, but not all, hazardous spaces might include: Tanks which have been used to carry combustible liquids, gases, or chemicals. Freshly painted spaces. iii. Adjacent spaces or surfaces. iv. Pipelines, pumps, etc., connected to spaces. v. Metal covered with preservative coatings. When conditions are such that there is a possibility of change in the atmosphere taking place, a competent person shall make tests to ensure that safe practices are maintained in case atmospheric conditions have been altered. : WARNING SIGNS A, All tanks, compaa. ments, or spaces shall be certified and tagged appwpriately as follows: "Safe for Men" - "Not Safe for Fire", or "Not Safe for Men" - "Safe for Fire", indicating that no hot work is permitted. Refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1915.15 for exceptions. ATTENDANT EMPLOYEES A. When any employee is required to work alone in a confined or isolated area, frequent checks must be made to ensure his safety. In areas where an employee could be overcome by toxic or oxygen-deficient atmospheres, at least one additional employee (attendant) shall be present to maintain communications (visual, voice, or signal line). Attendant employees must have immediate access to proper rescue equipment and be well versed in its use along with being trained in emergency rescue procedures. EMERGtENCY RESCUE A. The ti~llowing emergency rescue equipment must be available and maintained. i. Sel f-contained breathing apparatus in which the wearer carries with him a supply of oxygen, air, or an oxygen-generating material. NOTE: A gas mask offers absolutely no protection in an oxygen-deficient atmosphere. ii. Wristlets, body harnesses, and lifelines to lift employees from confined space. iii. A stokes litter (marine work) or an approved stretcher. B. Employees responsible for using this equipment should be trained in its use. C. An emergency I'escue "drill" should be held at least once a mi~nth and the results of the drill documented. D. Written procedures shall be prepared covering safe use of respirators in dangerous atmospheres that might be encountered in normal operations or in emergencies. E. Written procedures shall be prepared covering emergency rescue procedures of employees working in confined ureas. See references 7 and 8. SUBJECT: EMERGENCY RESCUE PROCEDURES FOR EMPLOYEES WORKING IN CONFINED SPACES This procedure deals primarily with rescue procedures tbr employees .requiring rescue from a confined space such as a tank car, hold of a ship, boiler, etc. I. RESPONSIBILITY A. Supervisors are responsible for coordinating emergency pmd~dures. Since the emergency usually dictates the procedure, the supervisor must depend on his own judgment in implementing the following procedures. B. A sufficient number of immediately available personnel must be fully trained in rescue procedures and a rescue "drill" must be held at least monthly. RESCUE EQUIPMENT A. The following is'the minimum rescue equipment needed: i. A sufficient number of self-contained breathing apparatus and sufficient tanks of oxygen or air. ii. A sufficient number ofwristlets, lifelines, and body harnesses. iii. A sufficient number of stokes baskets (marine) or stretchers. iv. A sufficient number of emergency oxygen units (resuscitators). B. The supervisor is responsible for seeing that the equipment is available immediately for use. C. Employ~s must be fully trained in the use of all emergency equipment IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS A. Every supervisor must organize his own depm tment to take care of emergencies. B. Each employee must be fully trained. C. Emergency telephone numbers must be posted as appropriate. Remember, it's a matter of life and death. NORMAL RESCUE PROCEDURES NOTE: The nature of the emergency dictates the procedures. This is only a guide. A. If there is the slightest chance that an employee(s) has been overcome by a toxic atmosphere or because of an oxygen deficient atmosphere, the approved self-contained breathing apparatus with self-contained air supply must be worn by the employee entering the confined area to make the rescue. B. The employee attending the lifeline should also be wearing a self-contained breathing apparatus. C. There will be at least one additional employee present to assist the "attendant" in removing the affected employee from the confined area. It'applicable, a body harness, ~,n-~stlets, and lit~line ~',dI be used to lift affected employees through small openings 'such a~ manholes, tanks cars, etc. Immediately after the affected employee has been removed ti'om the confined space, he is to be given artificial respiration with a resuscitator or other source of emergency oxygen. It is critically important to do this as soon as possible. While rescue procedures are in progress, an assigned employee is to call an ambulance and the hospital (if appropriate) giving location and nature of injttW. An additional employee will be assigmed to direct the ambulance to the accident scene. Normally, only those employees who are trained and responsible fbr emergency rescue should be involved. Other employees should not assist unless asked. This will eliminate confusion and employees who are not trained could make fatal m/stakes. I The key to succ~essful emergency rescue is to have a highly trained rescue team with immediately available rescue equipment. SUBJECT: WELDING AND CUTTING I. WELDING PERMITS A, Whenever cutting and welding with portable gas or electric equipment is to be done in any location not regularly established and properly set up for that type ofol~.ratiOn, a curing and welding permit must be properly issued before the start of such an operation. CuRing and welding permits will be issued only by persons who have ben designated as division ~m inspectors with the authorization of the plant manager. C, Division fire inspectors will be appointed in such a manner and to such a degree as is necessary to make certain that such an inspector is available in each area and at all$ times when cutting and welding of this nature may be required. Such division fire inspectors will be Selected on the recommendation of the person responsible for safety in the division. The inspector ma~ be division maintenance supervisor, or where that is nqt practical, some other man in supervisory capacit~ who is capable of assuming this responsibility. D, The man responsible for safety in the division will see that the division fire inspectors are carefully and completely instructed in the knowledge of the baTarcLs connected with cutting and welding, and in the proper measures to be taken in order to prevent fire under such circumstances. The appointment of the division fire inspector will be announced to the organization in a memorandum, a copy of which is to be posted in each division's maintenance department. When cutting and welding with portable equipment that is to be carried on, the person or persons assigned to such work will apply to the division fire inspector in charge of the area where the work is to be done and obtain from him a cutting and welding permit. Before issuing the permit, the division fire inspector or designated plant personnel will inspect the scene of the proposed operations with the operator or operators who are to do the work and will review the conditions which exist. He will use the permit form as a checklist. All the information required is to be filled in, and before giving permission for the job to be done he will make certain that the operators have been provided with the necessary fire prevention measures and are thoroughly acquainted with all precautions to be taken. All portable curing and welding rigs must be equipped with a 10 Ib., fully charged, general purpose dnj chemical extinguisher. H, Upon completion of the permit card by the division fire inspector, the card will be signed by the operator who is to perform the work and by the division fire inspector. Upon completion of the job, the operator will return the permit to the division fire inspector who will revisit the location of the work to ascertain that the job has been left in proper condition for safety against fire. The division fire inspector will turn in all permits for completed jobs to the person in charge of safety in the division for proper filing It is the responsibility of all supervision to see that no curing or welding of the nature described herein is performed without a proper permit. OPERATIONS A. General Spectacle type safety glasses (plain or prescription) must be worn under welding hoods or goggles. ii. Where welding is done regularly, the floor must be made ofnoncombustible material. iii. When possible, welding and cutting should be done in special fire-safe rooms with metal plate floors. Welding and cutting should not be done directly on concrete floors. iv. If welding must be done over wood floors, they must be covered with fireproof blankets, metal, or other noncombustible covering. Hot metal and slag should be kept from falling through floor openings and igniting combustible material below. If cutting on presses with pits, be sure that the pits al'e free fi'om oil and that a welding permit has been issued. Sheet metal, flameproof canvas, or timproof curtains should be used around welding operations to prevent sparks from reaching combustible material nearby. Care should be taken not to ignite rubber hose or combustible material which cannot be shielded. vi. Welding and cutting should not be permitted in or near rooms containing flammable liquids, vapors, or dusts. Neither should they be done in or near closed tanks or other containers which have held flammable liquids until the containers have been thoroughly cleansed and air tests indicate freedom from explosive gases or vapors. vii. No welding or cutting should be done on a surface until combustible deposits have been removed. viii. Fire extinguishing equipment suitable to the type of exposure should be within easy reach of welders and burners. When welding must be done near unshielded flammable material, watchers should be stationed to prevent sparks or molten slag from starting fires or to extinguish fires. : Shields should be installed around spot welders to prevent sparks from reaching combustible materials nearby or from injuring employees. The welder must ensure that there is adequate ventilation, especially in confined places. When welding or heating brass, bronze, galvanized or lead coated materials, special precautions are necessary because of the toxic fumes given off by such materials. xi. Oily rags or gloves shall never be left hanging on welding xii. Welding rigs shall never be left outside aisle lines where trucks or tractors can knock them over. xiii. All welding apparatus shall be equipped with "Reverse Flow Check Valves". xiv. When welding rigs are equipped with storage compartments, they must be well ventilated. Valves or oxygen and acetylene cylinders must be closed wher~ not in use. Valves must be opened slowly. Valves must not be tbrcibly closed. Welders must not weld or heat a pan with unvented sealed chambers. Hoses i. Hose must be protected ti'om being run over by trucks or otherwise damaged. ii. iii. iv. Where long hose must be used in areus exposed to vehicular or pedestrian traffic, it should be suspended overhead, high enough to permit unobstructed! passage. Leaks must be repaired at once. Hose leaks shall be repaired by using only approved mechanical clamps for joining hoses. Under no condition shall tape be permitted on a hose. Hose should be exam/ned periodically and frequently for le, aks and wear and for faulty hose connecti{bns. Hose should be protected from flying sparks, hot slag and other hot objects and from grease and oil. Hose not in use shall be stored in a cool place. vi. When parallel links of oxygen and acetylene hose are fastened together for convenience and to prevent tangling, approved mechanical clamps shall be used. vii. If a flashback occurs and burns in the hose, the entire I~ose shall be discarded. Any new hose should be blown out before connecting it to ~e torch and} regulator. viii. Never force hose connections. Foming them causes stripped threads and broken tomhes. Tomhes ii. Before changing tomhes, the gas shall be cut off at the pressure reducing regulators and not by crimping the hose. When discontinuing welding and cutting, the following procedure shall be followed: a. Close oxygen and acetylene cylinder valves. Open torch valves to relieve all gas pressure from the hose. Close torch valves and release regulator pressure adjusting screws. iii. The use of matches to light torches is forbidden. Friction lighters shall be use& When lighting the torch tip shall be pointed so no one will be burned when the gas ignites. Never turn around with a burning torch anless absolutely sure no one is near who is liable to be burned. iv. A torch shall never be put down until the gases have been completely shut off. Never leave a burning torch hanging on figs, crates, etc., unattended while piling or getting material ready for welding. Torches shall not be hung from a regulator or other equipment so that they come in contact with the sides of gas cylinders. When extinguishing the flame, the acetylene and oxygen valves shall be closed in the order recommended by the torch manufacturer. a. Pressures, while using acetylene, should never exceed fifteen pounds per square inch ( 15 F~SI). Pressures exceeding 15 PSI create a potential explosion hazard caused by the excess pressure breaking dox~m the acetylene into carbon and hydrogen. v. Welders should never try to repair regulators or other welding equipment. Arc Welding and Cutting i. Welding cables should not lie in water, oil, ditches, or in bottoms of tanks. They should be kept dry to prevent premature breakdown of the insulation. ii. Welders shall notify their supervisor immediately of defective cables. iii. Dipping hot electrode holders in water is forbidden. iv. Cables sl]ould be protected against sparks in confined spaces. v. Electrodes shall never be changed with bare hands or wet gloves or when standing on wet floors or grounded surfaces. vi. When, in the course of work, a cable (either work lead or electrode lead) becomes worn, exposing bare conductors, the portion thus exposed should be protected by means of rubber and/or friction tapes of equivalent protection. vii. Cables should be supported overhead, if practicable. If this earmot be done, they should be protected in such a manner that they will not be damaged or entangled. viii. Special care should be taken to see that welding supply cables are not in proximity to power supply cables or other high tension wires. viv. All portable motor generator sets with rubber tires shall be equipped with proper ground wires that are connected to the ground at all times while the generator is in use. SUBJECT: PURPOSE: SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURE - COMPRESSED GASES To establish sati: procedures fbr the handling, use, and storage Of compressed gases and compressed gas cylinders. ORGANIZATION COMPONENTS AFFECTED: All Departments PROCEDURE: 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 Identification All compressed gases should be handled in accordance with the safe practices applicable to the particular compressed gas. All compressed gas cylinders subjected to physical dmnage should be referred to the Safety Deplu tment for evaluation prior to further usage. Compressed commemial gases are defined as follows: 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 3.0 3.1 Combustible no~-lique~ed gases. Combustible liquefied gases. Non-combustible, non-liquefied gases. Non-combustible, l iquified gases. Flammable gases are usually contained in a red painted cylinder. Non-flammable gases are usually contained in a green painted cylinder. The following is a list of typical compressed gases. Acetylene Hydrogen Oxygen Argon Freon Nitrogen Transvortation Flammable Flammable Non-~ammable (explosive when brought imo contact with oil, grease, and other organic materials) Non-~ammable Non-flammable Ngn-flammable Do not abuse or mishandle gas cylinders. They should never be dwpped, permitted to strike each other, or to strike any other object. Rope or chain slings should never be used to carry cylinders. If necessary to hoist, use a properly designed basket. Empty cylinders should be labeled "empty" and segregated from full cylinders. Protection valve caps should always be used when valves on cylinders are not in use. Storage Cylinders must be stored on end and tied or otherwise made secure. Cylinders should not be stored near highly flammable substances. 4.0 4.1 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 4.7 4.8 4.9 4.10 4.11 4.12 4.13 4.14 4.15 4.16 Do not store cylinders near aisles. or In locauons where mowng objects may strike or thll on them. Cylinders containing acetylene should always be stored in a separate group, never with oxygen cylinders. Use Never mix gases in a cylinder. Never attempt repairs to valves or brauges, return them to the Maintenance Deparhnent. Make sure that the threads on regulators correspond to those on the cylinder valve outlet. Never force connections that do not fit. Different threads and thread sizes are used on cylinders to prevent intemhange of the equipment. Cylinder valves should lie opened slowly to avoid pressure surges. When "cracking the valve", i.e., opening the valve for an instant to clear the opening of dust or din, the following precautions should be taken: a. Never crack a valve near a flame or other sources of ignition. b. Always point the valve opening away from the body but not toward anyone else. c. Compressed gas cylinders containing highly toxic gas should not be opened to the atmosphere. Never permit the gas to enter a regulator suddenly. Open all valves slowly. Before removing a regulator from a cylinder, close the cylinder valve and release all gas from the regulator. Never attempt to stop a leak between a cylinder and a regulator by tightening the adjusting nut, unless the cylinder valve has been closed. Do not allow sparks, molten metal, electric current, excessive heat or flames to come in contact with the cylinder, the hose, or the .regulator. Do not use oil or grease on attachments for oxygen cylinders. EXPLOSIVE When valve protection hoods become frozen or filled with ice, let them thaw out in a warm room. Never use steam to thaw them out. Cylinders should never be used for any purpose other than containers for the particular gases for which they were designed. If cylinders are used in an upright position, they must be secured to a substantial structure to prevent their falling over. Never use compressed gas to dust off clothing. Cylinder valves should be tightly closed when not in use or when empty. Never use flame to detect gas leaks. Use soapy water. 4 17 Cylinders with leaking valves should be removed to a sat~ location and tagged as. having a det~ctive valve. 4. I 8 Oxygen should never be used as a substitute tbr air and should always be designated by its proper name. Equipment 5.0 Combustible gas regulators, hose, or other appliances should never be interchanged with similar equipment intended for use with other gases. .,iUF3JECT PURPOSE: ORGANIZATION COMPONENTS AFFECTED: PROCEDURE: Materials Handling 1.0 l.I 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 2.0 2.1 2.2 MA FERIALS f f,.\NDLING - GENERAL RULES To establish safe operating standards tbr general materials handling. All Departments General Materials handling and production methods affecting materials handling should be studied by every supervisor as a specific phase of the safety pro/~'am. Movement of materials should be continuous to produce ~'eatest efficiency and to avoid congestion. Procedures shall be in c~?nformity with the following basic rules: a. Keep materials moving uniformly through the process steps. b. Minimize unnecessary rehandling. c. Eliminate heavy manual lifting. d. Reduce transport distances whenever possible. e. Provide special handling equipment, such as conveyors, fork lift trucks, etc., when practicable. These basic approaches simplify handling of materials and aid in the control of accidents. Where these processes are organized, standard safe practices mast be developed, and increased accident control can be accomplished. Materials shall be delivered to each succeeding operation in units of proper size. In general, materials shall be supplied and finished parts shall be removed at frequent intervals to eliminate congestion, blocking of aisles, and attendant hazards. Materials should be brought to each operation by conveyors, platforms, skids, etc., at the same height that they will be used so that unnecessary manual or mechanical handling will be avoided. Equipment for handling materials shall be especially designed to accommodate the size and type of materials being moved. Where material is handled manually, every effor~ shall be made to eliminate the necessity for lifting and to substitute methods for pulling, pushing, or rolling loads. Stacking Materials At all points, materials shall be stored and/or piled in a safe manner. Careful consideration should be given to the methods of loading materials for transporting so that haTnrds will be minimized in the unloading of the item. Storage stacks and loads on shop trucks, conveyors, etc., must be stable to minimize slips, slides, or tip-overs, which create hazards to slow operations. 3O 3.1 3.2 3.3 3.4 Loading Docks Ample s0ace at loading and unloading docks shall be provided off the traveled aisles or roadways to permit efficient operation without hampering the flow or' traffic. Adequate bumper rails shall be installed parallel to loading docks, at distances which permit tracks and trailers to back in without striking the dock. Safe loading platforms of proper design shall be provided to compensate tbr horizontal and vertical differences between truck bodies and the edge of the loading dock. Loading docks should be high enough to permit the placing of loading platforms as nearly as possible in a horizontal plane. ' Loading platforms shall be fastened securely to prevent displacement while in use. Consideration should be given to the desibm, construction, and use of speci,al aids in connection with loading and unloading operatioqs to lessen inherent handling hazards. SUBJECT: PURPOSE: CRANES AND LIFTING EQUIPMENT 'Fo reduce hazards to an absolute minimum in moving of equipment, materials, and assemblies t:com one processing unit to another by means of cranes, cables, hoists, and overhead lifting devices. Special Note: The immediate supervisor and a member of the Safety Depmiment must be present when heavy or unusual lifts and/or firing is to be made. i Dangerous lifts must be pre-planned. Crane Operations (General) 1.0 Cranes shall be operated only by regular crane operators, authorized .substitutes, crane repairmen, or crane inspectors. I. I Hookers and riggers shall be responsible for the safe handling of all crane loads under their control and shall not permit any persons t~p dissuade them from such duties nor shall they pern4it any unsafe practice to be carried on in connection with such loads as long as the load is under their direction. 1.2 Crane loads shall not be carried over personnel Acetylene generators or cylinders of compressed gases shall not be moved by crane unless they are loaded in properly equipped cradles. Exceeding the rated capacity of cranes is prohibite& Engineering shalli specify the product weight on all shop blue prints to prevent overload. 1.3 All loads should be lifted vertically and side pulls avoided: When necessary to guide the load, guidelines should be used. 1.4 No personnel shall be allowed to ride the magnet of a crane. 1.5 Magnet cranes, when not in use, must have the magnet resting on the ground or floor. Crane Operators and Riggers 2.0 Loads shall not be moved unless the standard crane signals are given, seen, and understood. 2. I Crane operators shall take signals from one authorized person on the ground or floor and shall not move the crane until signals are received. 2.2 Always grab chains or slings above the load when holding the slack before hoisting. 2.3 Keep hands and feet clear of pinch points. Be alert for "nesting" or rolling of material as it is raised or lowered. 2.4 Always stand clear of the load so that, if it swings, slips, or spills, you will not be injured. 2.5 Riggers must be trained to determine the weight of the load and select the proper size and type of hooks, chains, etc. 2.6 Employees are not permitted to fide the hood or the load. 2.7 Both ends of idle slings are to be secured to the hooks. 2.8 Slings should be padded where they pass over sharp edges of corners of:loads to prevent cutting or kinking. 2.9 Tag lines should be provided on all loads likely to swing or to need ~,naidance. 2. [0 When making choker hitches with chain slings, always face the hook opening out and away from the pull of the sling so the hooks will not slip out when slack is taken out of the slings. 2. [ [ Side pull should be avoided. 2.12 Riggers are responsible for making safe "hook-ups". SUBJECT: RIGGER RESPONSIBILITIES 1. Supervisors must recogllize that employee safety, as well as the preservatio~ of equipment and materials, must be considered in the planning of lifting operations. Employees must be taught to rig loads carefully. 2. Personal protective equipment must be worn - safety shoes, gloves, safety glasses, hard hats, etc. 3. Hitching equipment must be checked before and after each use. Worn topes and broken chains cannot be used safely, so frequent inspection should concentrate on finding broken linkS, strands, or fibers. 4. Excessive wear in cable slings can be readily detected by frayed, [oose~ or cut strands. Watch for fixed kinks. Any sign of corrosion is a signal that the cable is probably defective. 5. Chain links must work freely within one another. Look for cracks, flaws, cold shuts, cuts, nicks, stretching, etc. 6. Whenever sling inspection uncovers a defect, the sling must be withdrawn immediately from service and marked or tagged conspicuously to ensure against its use. Frequently, only the manufacturer is capable of repairing a defective sling. 7. Hooks will show wear by straightened tines, as well as cracks and flaws. Check for these. Get replacements for load hooks that are bent open. Once a hook has been overloaded, it can no longer be used safely. 8. Any heavy lifting job calls for the proper size hoist capacity. Using the wrong sling can be dangerous. It is wrong to assume that all chain slings, wire rope slings, or fiber rope slings have the same capacity and are correct for all lifting tasks. 9. Consider the angle of inclination of chain sling branches. Using a sling that is too short, thus reducing the angle of inclination, will cut down your safety margin. Use the Chain Capacity Chart. 10. Always place pads on sharp corners with which slings and chains might~ otherwise come into contact especially in cases where the slings might slide during the lifting operation. I 1. Shake out twists and kinks before loading; don't permit kinky slings to be used. Don't use a sling where a kink cannot be removed. 12. Be careful to avoid placing a chain or cable so that the weight of the load is carried on the point of the hook. Load slings with the weight on the main portion (bowl) of hooks. 14. 15. 16. 17. 19. 20. 21. ?? 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. Never use a wire cable singly when hooked by a spliced eye. When the weight is sufficient, the cable is liable to untwist, allowing the'splices to open and slip. Splicing chains or shortening chains with bolts, etc., is prohibited. In using slings of any kind, see that they are properly laid; that is, see that one cable does not lie on top of the other, as this will prevent proper equalization, thus putting an undue strain on the outer member. Try to keep pull on sling legs in a straight line. Choker and basket hitches may be used as slings but only after a careful check of safe load limits has been made. Foreign substances such as grit, bits of metal, and glass particles are harmful to cables and ropes. Never drag cables and ropes across the floor or ground. Standard craneman's signals should be used and given by one person only. I When giving signals, the crane rigger should be sure he is in a position. where the crane operator can see him. When two hoists are being used, the crane rigger must stand so that the crane operator can understand clearly the signal for each hoist. Before signaling the crane operator to hoist, the crane rigger should see that the crane block is directly over the load to avoid swinging. Avoid unbalanced loads. [f hooks are beyond your reach, ask for help, and never force a hook or chain into place by hammering. Avoid sudden jerking when lifting or lowering, as this can increase the stress put on the chain or hook far beyond the actual weight of the load. [f it is necessary to walk alongside a suspended or elevated load, stand or walk clear of the load, never underneath it. Use a tag line or pole to guide or hold the load. Be certain that your path of travel is free of obstructions before you begin. Material being piled should be properly placed and blocked so that it will not slip or overbalance. Stack material neatly. Cross tie and step back where necessary. Avoid crushing slings when lowering loads. Use cribbing blocks under the load to remove slings. Roll or bend cables in one direction. Never bend first in one direction then another. Hitching equipment not in use shouldn't remain loose on hoisting devices but should be removed from crane hooks, hoists, and loads. Chains should be hung over the top of the A-frame storage rack and looped so that no part of them touches the floor when not in use. This method will permit easy examination of the most frequently damaged areas of slings, i.e. the hook, the lower third of the sling, and the master link where you can check the ID tag. Also, the crane operator will not need a rigger to unhook and the rigger will not have to lit~ "much" to hook on. 29. Good housekeeping throughout the operation will help to control the hazards of mechanical lifting. 30. Each rigger will be issued a copy of"Handbook tbr Riggers" and become acquain. ted with the contents. (Ord.er tYom "Handbook tbr Riggers", Box 2999, Calgary, Alberta, Canada) Special Note: Betbre making dangerous or unusual lifts make certain that the immediate supervisor is notified and present. RiGGER TRAINING EXAMINATION: A. Indicate TRUE or FALSE to each of the questions listed below: I. lfa cable is properly lubricated, you can assume that it is all right. 2. Install and secure cable clumps with the V-bolt on the shortened end of the rope. 3. Sheet metal covers (hood bonnets, hood door, etc. ) are for cosmetic p,urposes only. 4. A clean environment promotes safety. 5. [f there is a red tag or warning sign on the crane controls, the operator is to remove the sign and test operate the crane to determine the problero prior to handling a load. 6. Operator may leave the crane cab while the engine is running us long as there is no load suspended. 7. When hand signals are used, obey only signals ~'oro a designated, eroployee regardless of the signal. 8. It is important to watch closely how wire rope is installed. 9. If a sling is not available, one can be made with wire rope and clamps. I 0. If a cutter is not available, you roay cut wire rope with a torch, as: long as you cool the rope off fast I 1. Fiber ropes may be used for lifting. 12. If the hook doesn't have a safety latch, you may weld nuts to the hook. 13. It is approved to choke through a splice in a sling. 14.

All cans of paint, thinnet, and all other flammable liquids mast be stored in ventilated areas. Before you eat, wash your hands and face with soap and water. Do not keep your lunch or eat near your place of work. SUBJECT: RESPIRAFORY PROTECTION POLICY: When effective engineenng controls are not ti:asible to adequately prevent atmospheric contamination, each operation shall provide each employee employed in dusty or toxic atmospheres respiratory. protection devices approved by N. I.O.S. H. I. Employer Responsibility Respirators will be provided by the Company when such equipment is necessary to protect the employee's health. B. The Company shall provide the respirators which are applicable and suitable for the purpose intended. The Company shall establish and maintain a respiratory protection program which shall include the following general requirements: t I. Written standard operating procedures governing the selection and use of respirators shall be established. , Respirators shall be selected on the basis of the hs:rards tO which the worker is exposed. The user shall be instructed and trained in the proper use of respirators and their limitations. Where practicable, the respirators should be assigned to: individual workers for their exclusive use. Respirators shall be regularly cleaned and disinfected. Those issued for the exclusive use of one worker should be cleaned after each day's use, or more often if necessary. Those used by more than one worker shall be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use. 6. Respirators shall be stored in a convenient, clean, and sanitary location. Respirator,s used routinely shall be inspected during cleaning. Worn or deteriorated parts shall be replaced. Respirators tbr emergency use such as seltkontained breathing devices shall be thoroughly inspected at least once a month and after each~use. Appropriate surveillance of work area conditions and degree of employee exposure of stress shall be maintained. There shall be regular inspection and evaluation to determine the continued effectiveness of the program. II. Employee Responsibility The employee shall use the provided respiratory protection in accordance with instructions and training received, The employee shall guard against damage to the respirator. The employee shall report any malfunction of the respirator to the responsible person. IV. Program Administrat,on Responsibility Responsibilities tbr the program shall be vested in one individual appointed by the principal plant manager. Use of Respirators Standard procedures shall be developed for respirator use. These should include all information and guidance necessary for their proper selection, use, and care. Possible emergency and routine uses of respirators should be anticipated and planned for. The correct respirator shall be specified for each job. The respirator type is usually specified in the work procedures by a qualified individual supervising the respiratory protection program. The individual issuing them shall be adequately instructed to ensure that the correct respirator is issued. Each respirator shall be marked to indicate to whom it was assigned. This mark shall not affect the respirator performance in any way. The date of issuance should be recorded. I Written procedures shall be prepared coveting safe use of respirators in dangerous atmospheres that might be encountered in normal operation or in emergencies. Personnel shall be familiar with these procedures and the available respirators. In areas where the wearer, with failure of the respirator, could be overcome by a toxic or oxygen- deficient atmosphere, at least one additional man (attendant) shall be present. Communications (visual, voice, or signal line) shall be maintained between beth or all individuals present Planning shall be such that one individual will be unaffected by any likely incident and have the proper rescue equipment to be able to assist the other(s) in case of an emergency. D. Training in Proper Use For safe use of any respirator, it is essential that the user be properly instructed in its selection, use, and maintenance. Both superv/sors and workers shall be so instructed by competent persons. F. Minimum training shall include the following: Instruction in the nature of the hnTard, whether acute, chronic, or both, and an honest appraisal of what may happen if the respirator is not used. Explanation of why more positive control is not immediately feasible. This shall include recognition that every reasonable effort is being made to reduce or eliminate the need for respirators. 3. A discussion of why this is the proper type of respirator for the particular purpose. 4. A discussion of the respirator's capabilities and limitations. Instruct/on and training in actual use of the respirator (especially a respirator for emergency use) and close frequent supervision to assure that it continues to be properly used. 6. Classroom and field training to recognize and cope with emergency situations. 7. Other special training as needed for special use. 'Fra~ning shall provide the men an opportunity. to handle the respirator, have it titted properly, test its tb. cepiece:to-tb. ce seal, wear it in normal air tbr a long f~.miliarity period, and finally, to wear it in a test atmosphere. Maintenance and Care of Respirators A. General VI. 1. A program for maintenance and care of respirators shall include the following basic services: a. Inspection tbr defects (including a leak check). b. Cleaning and disinfecting. c. Repair. d. Storage. 2. Equipment shall be properly maintained to retain its original effectiveness. B. Inspection All respirators shall be inspected routinely before and after each use. A respirator that is not routinely used but is ken ready for emergency use shall ibe inspected after each use and at least monthly to assure that it is in satisfactory working condition. Self-contained breathing apparatus shall be inspected m0nthly. Air and oxygen cylinders shall be fully charged according to the manufaeturer's instructions. It shall be determined that the regulator and warning devices function properly. , A record shall be kept of inspection dates and findings for respirators maintained for emergency use. Cleaning and Disinfection Routinely used respirators shall be collected, cleaned, and disinfected as frequently as necessary to ensure that proper protection is provided for the wearer. Each worker sho, uld be briefed on the cleaning procedure and be assured that he will always receive a clean and disinfected respirator. Such assurances are of greatest significance when respirators are not individually assigned to workers. C. Respirators maintained for emergency use shall be cleaned and d!sinfected after each use. D. The following procedure is recommended for cleaning and disinfecting respirators: I. Remove any filters, cartridges, or canisters. 2. Wash facepiece and breathing tube in cleaner-disinfectant or detergent solution. 3. Rinse completely in clean, warm water. 4. A~r dry in a Glean area. 5. Clean other respirator parts as recommended by manuthcturer. 6. Inspect valves, headstraps, and other parts. Replace with new parts if defective. 7. Insert new filters, cartridges, or canisters. Make sure seal is tight. 8. Place in plastic bag or container for storage. Cleaner-disinfectant solutions are available that effectively clean the respirator and contain a bactericidal agent. VII.

American Water Works Association ANSIfAWWA C652J:J2 (Revision of ANSI/AWWA C652-86) AWWA STANDARD FOR DISINFECTION OF WATER-STORAGE FACILITIES SECTION 1: GENEP-,AL Sec. 1.1 Scope This standard for disinfection of water-storage facilities covers materials, £acii- ity preparation, application of dlalnfectant'to interior surfaces of facilities, and sampling and testing for the presence of celiforrn bacteria The standard also includes dl.lnfection procedures for underwater inspec-jon of on-line, petable-water- storage facilities, but does not cover the technical aspects of underwater inspection. All new storage facilities shall be disinfected before [~ey are placed in service. All storage facilities taken out of service for inspecting, repairing, painting, cleaning, or other activity that might lead to contamination of wa~er shaJl be disinfected before they are returned to service. Sec. 1~ References This standard references the following documents. The latest current edition of each document forms a part of this standard where and to the extent specified herein. In case of any corl~ict, the requirements of this standard. shall prevail.:_ ANSI*/AWWA B300--Standard for Hypochlorites. I XNSI/AW'WA B301--Standard for Liquid Chlorine.

Sec. 1.3 Record of Compliance The record of compliance shall be the bacteriological test results certifying that the water held in the storage fac~/ty is free of coliform bacteria contamination. SECTION 2: CLEANING All scaffolding, planks, tools, rags, and other materials not part of the struc- tural or b~n~rating facilities of the tank shall be removed. Then the surfaces of the walls, floor, and operating facilities of the storage facility shall be cleaned thoroughly using a high-pressure water jet, sweeping, scrubbing, or equally effect/ve roearia. All water, dirt, and foreign material accumulated in this clean'rag operation shall be discharged from the storage facility or otherwise removed. Sec. 2.1 Other Materials Following the clenni,~g operation, the vent screen, over/low screen, and any other screened openings shall be checked ~ put in satisfactory condition to pre- vent birds, insects, and other poss~le con+~m~nants from entering the facility. Any material required to be in the operating storage facility al~r the cleaning procedure has been completed shall be clean and sanitary when placed in the facility, In such instances, care shall be taken to minimize the introduction of dirt or other foreign material. (For example, placing a layer of limestone granules on the unpainted bottom of the storage facility to prevent corrosion. ) SECTION 3: FORMS OF CHLORINE FOR DISINFECTION The forms of chl0rin~"that may be used in the disinfecting +perations ar'~'hquid chlorihe, so~um hypochlorite solution, and calcium hypochlorite granules or tablets. Sec. 3.1 Liquid Chlorine Liquid chlorine conforming to ANSI/AWWA B301 contains 100 percent avail- able chlorine and is packaged in steel containers usually of 100-1b, 150-1b, or l-ton (45.4-kg, 68.0-kg, or 907.2-kg) net chlorine weight. Liquid chlorine shall be used only (1) in combination with appropriate gas-flow chlorinators and ejectors to provide a *Chlorine Institute Inc., 2001 L St. N.W., Washington, DC 20036. ,,:~,,,-vv,,,,,v r~,: ,,-'~ER FACILITIES 3 controlled high-concentration solution feed to the water to be chlorinated; (2) under the direct supervision of a person who is familiar with chlorine's physiological, chemical, and physical properties, and who is trained and equipped to handle any emergency that may a. rise; and (3) when appropriate safety practices are observed to protect working personnel and the public. Sec. 3.2 Sodium Hypochlorite Sodium hypochlofite conforming to ANSI/AWWA B300 is available in liquid form in glass, rubber-lined, or plastic containers typically ranging in size from 1 qt (0.95 L) to 5 gal (18.92 L). Containers of 30 gal (113.6 L) or larger may be available in some areas. Sodium hypochlorite contains approximately 5 percent to 15 percent avafiable chlorine by volume, and care must be taken to control storage conditions and length of storage to minimize its deterioration. Sec. 3.3 Calcium Hypochlorite Calcium hypocldorite conforming to ANSI/AWWA 3300 is available in granular form or in small tablets, and contsinn approximately 65 percent available chlorine by weight. The material should be stored in a cool, dry, dark environment to mird- mize its deterioration. SECTION 4: ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF CHLORINATION Three methods of chlorination are explained in this standard. Typically, only one method will be used for a given storage-facility disinfection, but comb'mations of the methods may be used. The three methods are (1) chlorination of the full storage facility such tJ~At, at the end of the appropriate retention peri(~l, the water will have a free chlorine residual of not less than 10 rag/L; (2) spraying or painting of all storage facility water-contact surfaces with a solution of 200-mg/L available chlorine; and (3) chlorination of full storage facility with water having a free chlorine residual of 2mg/Lafter24h.* Sec. 4.1 Chlorination Method 1 The water-s[brage facility shall be filled to the overflow level with petable water to which enough chlorine is added to provide a free chlorine residual in the full facility of not less than 10 mg/L at the end of the appropriate 6-h or 24-h period. as described in Sec. 4.1.4. The chlorine, either as calcium hypochlorite, sodium hypo- chlorite, or liqufa chlor'me,-shall be introduced into the water as described hereafter. 4.1.1 Liquid-chlorine usc. Liquid chlorine shall ~e introduced into the water filling the storage facility in such a way as to give a uniform chlorine concentration during the entire filling operation. Portable chlorination equipment shall be care- fully operated and shall include a liquid-chlorine cylinder, gas-flow chlorinator, chlorine ejector, safety equipment, and an appropriate solution tube to inject the high-concentration chlorine solution into the filling water. The solution tube shall be *For reference, mounts of chemicals needed for vanou~ chlorine concentrations are shown in appendix A, Table A.1. 4 AW~VA (?652-92 inserted through an appropriate valve located on the inlet pipe and near the storage facility such that the chlorine solution wfil mix readily with the irdlowing water. 4.1.2 Sodium hypochlorite use. Sodium hypochlorite shall be added to the water entering the storage facility by means of a chemical-feed pump, or shall be applied by hand-pouring into the storage facility and allowing the infiowing water to provide the desired robring. 4.1.2.1 When a chemical-feed pump is used, the concentrated chlorine solution shall be pumped through an appropriate solution tube so as to inject the high-con- centration chlorine solution at a rate that will give a uniform chlorine concentration in the filling water. The solution tube shall be inserted through an appropriate valve located on the inlet pipe and near the storage facility, or through an appropriate valve located on the storage facility such that the chlorine solution will mix readily with the filling water. 4.1.2.2 When the sodium hypochlorite is poured into the storage facility, the filling of the storage facility shall begin immediately therea.P~r or as soon as any removed manhole covers can be dosed. The sodium ~ypochlorite may be poured through the deanout or inspection manhole in the lower course or level of the stor- age facility, in the riser pipe of an elevated tank, or through the roof manhole. The sodium hypochlorite shall be poured into water in ths storage facility when such water is not more than 3 ft (0.9 m) in depth, nor less than I ft (0.3 m) in depth or as close thereto as manhole locations permit. : 4.1.3 Calcium hypochlorite ase. Calcium hypochlorite granules or tablets bro- ken or crushed to sizes not larger than ~'4-in. (6.4-rnrn~ maximum dimension may be poured or carried into the storage facility through the deanout or inspection man- hole in the lower course or level of the storage facility, into the riser pipe of an elevated tank, or through the roof manhole. The granules or tablet parrids sixall be placed in the storage facility before flowing water into it. The granules or tablets shall be located so that the in~owing water will ensure a current of water cirouiat- ing through the calcium hypochlorite, dissolving it during the filling operation. The calcium hypoclxlorite shall be placed only on dry surfaces unless adequate precau- tions axe taken to provide ventilation or protective breathing equipment. 4.1.4 Retention period. After the storage facility has been filled with the disin- fecting water, it shall stand full as follows: (1) for a period of not less than 6 h when the water entering the storage facility has been chlorinated urdform]y by gas-feed equipment or chemical pump, or (2) for a period of not less than 24 h when the storage facility h~s been filled with water that has been mixed with sodium hypo- ch]orite or calcium hypochlorite within the storage facility as described in Sec. 4.1.2 and Sec. 4.1.3. 4.1.5 Handling of disinfection water. After the retention' period stated in Sec. 4.1.4, the ~-ree- chlorine residual in the storage :~xcility shall be reduosd to a concentration appropriate for distribution (not more than 2 ~xg/L} by completely draining the storage facility and refilling with petable water, or by a combination of additional holding time and blending with potable water having a low chlorine con- centration. When an appropriate chlorine concentration is reached and subject to satisfactory bacteriological testing and acceptable aesthetic quality, such water may be delivered to the distribution system. 4.1.5.1 The environment into which the chlorinated water is to be discharged shall be inspected, and if there is any likelihood that the chlorinated discharge will cause damage, then a reducing agent shall be applied to the water to be wasted to thoroughly neutralize the chlorine residual in the water.
