Project Specific Loss Exposures and Controls
Scope of Proposed Operations: This project will be starting early spring 2019 with a completion date of March 2021. At its peak, it will have up to 80 plus workers representing several different trades and will take place at 45 Campus Ave in Lewiston ME. This project will commence with the complete removal of two existing structures including foundations on Nichols street. The site will then be cleared of all trees and shrubs as well as top soils. The new structure will consist of a 1 down 4 up structural steel building with poured in place slabs. New concrete footings as well as foundation walls will be installed on top of engineered piles to provide the structure with a solid base. The new building will have science labs, administrative offices as well as a vivarium. Exterior finishes will consist of a combination of masonry, curtain and panel wall systems. The roughly 166,000 sf building will be topped off with an epdm roof. Interior finishes will be typical throughout with new hvac, plumbing, electrical and life safety systems. Two elevators will be installed during construction along with three stair wells. Site work will consist of new sewer, drain and electrical duct banks. Finish landscaping and new sidewalks on three sides of the building will finish off the project.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this Site-Specific Safety and Health Program is to illustrate Consigli’s approach to identifying project specific hazards and controls and how said risk is managed through a comprehensive Safety and Health Program.
S.A.F.E.: Staying Accident Free Every Day is the Safety Mission that forms the very foundation of the Consigli Safety Culture. The S.A.F.E. mission, which is supported by technology, (Predictive Solutions internal auditing instrument which identifies and defines leading indicator related information); Leadership (Empowering our team members to assure safe projects); Humanization (Protect the ones you love by protecting yourself); Jobsite Gym (Morning warm-ups, stretch and flex); Training (Integrating sub-contractors into the Consigli Safety Culture); and Lean (nothing hit the ground), is the driving force behind Consigli’ s drive to our vision – ZERO. ZERO is the philosophy that all accidents are preventable, and that no accident is acceptable. The S.A.F.E. mission is the guiding force to achieving the Consigli Safety Vision which is ZERO.

Consigli Construction does posses historical data to show that drilling, sawing, light demo, installation of hangers, hanging sheetrock, fastening, and carpentry do not put the employee above the action level. Despite this additional monitoring will be done. An exposure assessment will be done for any task on painted surfaces that has been identified as lead containing prior to the work being mass preformed. This does not mean that lead could not still be found in/on other surface/areas, caution must be used when working and if any workers identify any potentially hazardous substances then they should stop and notify their supervisor immediately. If at any time workers will need to work on the areas mentioned above, they will need to obtain Lead Awareness training. A hand wash station will be established and maintained for the project duration
Asbestos: A complete list of ACMs and their location can be found in the hazardous material report which will be filed in the office and available for review at any time. Some materials identified as ACM include but not limited to gray, beige and white stucco associated with 145 Nichols St. A complete list of ACMs and their location can be found in the hazardous material report which will be filed in the office and available for review at any time. ACM that will need to be abated will be done so by a ME licensed asbestos contractor.
This does not mean that asbestos could not still be found in other areas, caution must be used when working and if any workers identify any potentially hazardous substances then they should stop and notify their supervisor immediately. All identified asbestos will be fully abated by a licensed and regulated asbestos abatement contractor under a formal plan to be written, submitted and in accordance with the DEP.
IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ALL SUBCONTRACTOR FOREMEN TO REVIEW THE HAZARDOUS MATERIAL REPORT & CORRESPONDING ABATEMENT PLAN WITH THEIR WORKERS. A copy of the hazardous Material report/abatement plan will be on site at all times and available to anyone request it.
