<br />Health and Safety Plan <br /> <br />hazardous to the health of the sorters conducting the study. For these reasons, it will <br />be necessary for each sorter to wear the personal protective clothing that will be <br />provided. This protective clothing is listed below. <br /> <br />. Hard hats and liners in the winter <br /> <br />. Safety glasses or goggles, or prescription safety glasses <br /> <br />. Organic vapor dust mask (ifrequired by facility operator) <br /> <br />. White Tyvek full-piece suit (the suit's sleeves should be tucked inside the gloves <br />so the ends of the sleeves don't drag in the materials samples) <br /> <br />. Nitrile gloves (cotton liners will be provided, optional) <br /> <br />. Steel-toed boots <br /> <br />5.6 Presorting Protection <br /> <br />Different levels of protection are required for different study activities, depending on <br />the potential for exposure. In addition to the personal protective clothing listed <br />previously for sorters, presorting the samples for hazardous, household hazardous, and <br />infectious waste requires the wearing of a half-faced respirator. The Site Supervisor <br />and Assistant Supervisor will be the only staff conducting the presorting and, <br />preferably, have received safety training associated with wearing the additional <br />respiratory protection. <br /> <br />5.7 Spills <br /> <br />In the unlikely event of a spill or a release of a hazardous substance in a quantity still <br />manageable by on-site personnel, the Site Supervisor will wear a poly-coated Tyvek <br />suite (yellow) with duct tape to seal the wrists and ankles, double gloves (nitrile gloves <br />with inner vinyl gloves), and disposable vinyl overboots to protect against liquids. <br />The Site Supervisor will also switch to a full-faced respirator. <br /> <br />5.8 Likelihood of Heat and Cold Stress <br /> <br />Because the study will be taking place inside a minimally heated area and outside, <br />enviromnental factors are an important consideration in worker health and safety. <br />Additionally, the personal protective clothing required for the study can aggravate <br />situations caused by uncomfortable weather. A large Tyvek suit will be worn over <br />layers of clothing. Frequent breaks will be encouraged in the event of extremely hot <br />or cold weather. A work/rest schedule will be adapted to weather conditions. Also, <br />water coolers and beverages will be provided throughout the sort. <br /> <br />5.9 First Aid for Heat and Cold Stress <br /> <br />The following are First Aid procedures for conditions caused by hot and cold <br />temperature extremes that may be aggravated by required personal protective <br />equipment: <br /> <br />Roseville-Health & Safety Plan <br /> <br />R.
