Project Specific Loss Exposures and Controls

Scope of Proposed Operations: Construction of a three story, 108,000 SF, medical office building at the Maine Medical Center Scarborough campus that will include MRI, Fluoroscopy, and X-Ray suites along with exam spaces for patient treatment.   

The following logistics plan highlights route of travel and public pretection for work.

OCIP: This project will be run under an Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP).  Maine Medical Center will assume the risk of the project by incorporating contractors into this insurance program.  Some contractors may be excluded from the OCIP enrollment.    

Drug/Substance Abuse Testing: Consigli Construction Company Inc. (CCCI), and  all  subcontractors (“Parties”) to the Maine Med. Scarborough MOB Owner Controlled Insurance Program(OCIP) for the major construction project at the SJG project  will participate  in a Drug-Free Workplace Program, (“the Program”) which states that the use of illegal drugs or the abuse of alcohol, prescription or controlled substances on or off duty by persons working on/employed, or seeking employment, on this SJG project, is inconsistent with a safe, healthy and productive work environment.

This Substance Abuse Program (“the Program”) is established by CCCI in response to the directive as recited above and supersedes any pre-existing ·programs.

CCCI project managers on the project covered by the OCIP will require that this Program be applied to all Contractor-employed personnel working on the project site and to all applicants for such positions.

The intention of this Program is to establish the MMC Scarborough MOB project as a drug and alcohol free workplace with due regard for the personal privacy interests of project employees.  It is not the intention of CCCI project manager(s) to intrude on off-duty activities of project employees away from the project site, unless those activities have a job-related impact.  The circumstances permitting alcohol and drug testing on the project have been carefully defined. The CCCI project manager(s) will retain oversight over the program and will monitor test procedures for consistency and policy compliance.

The Parties acknowledge and agree on the importance of appropriate education, assistance, and treatment for all employees to combat the potential or actual influence of illegal/controlled drugs and alcohol. The Parties therefore encourage the utilization of the educational, assistance and treatment programs which have been established by Unions and/or Contractors as an important component of the overall Substance Abuse Program on Project sites.

The CCCI Substance Abuse Program establishes minimum standards of testing on a consistent, standardized basis for the safety, productivity and economy of all parties and personnel working on this project. The Program will apply to all project workers, employees and applicants for employment on this covered project site and to all project Contractors at all tiers. The Construction Manager CCCI will regularly review with all Parties concerned the effective implementation and enforcement of the Program, and will require appropriate action by any and all Parties who are not fully committed to and involved in the application of the Program.

This Program shall be subordinate to the Department of Transportation Regulations or any other federal or state drug testing mandates which shall prevail and apply only to those classes of employees and applicants subject to the mandatory drug test regulations currently in effect, as amended or established in the future by the Federal Highway Administration, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Research and Special Programs Administrative of the Department of Transportation or any other federal or state agency with appropriate jurisdiction.

**See the end of this Site Specific Safety and Health program for a copy of the actual Substance Abuse Testing program**

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.  

Identify the specific route in and out of the construction site (Traffic Management): For this project all deliveries and waste removal shall enter using the north entrance, located off the 95 Interchange, onto RT. 1. Once off 95 and on the Mine Turnpike Approach, take a right at Irving Oil. The delivery and waste removal entrance is right past the Trask-Decrow Machinery Shop on the left. All deliveries will be coordinated with the Consigli Superintendent.  Also only permitted truck routes will be used, all contractors will be responsible for adhering to truck routes and restrictions plan which will be made available to all sub-contractors. Because of site work and parking lot construction coordination medical buildings, the amount of trucks that will be traveling to the site will need continuous monitoring to ensure the least impact to the public and businesses.

Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE):  All workers will wear hard hats, safety glasses, high visibility vests, sturdy work boots at all times. All personnel performing work with their hands shall be required to wear gloves that are appropriate to the task.  When not performing actual work with their hand’s workers will be required to have them available for immediate use…  Face shields will be required for all personnel who are performing overhead work, using metal chop saw or any type of metal grinding. All welders will be required to have hard hats with integral welding shields.

Designated work hours (any work outside these hours must have prior CCC approval):  All material host related work shall take place during regular business hours of, Monday – Friday 7:00am to 3:30pm.  Any work which may need to take place outside of these hours will need to be approved by the CCC Superintendent. All deliveries must be coordinated with the CCC superintendent, with at least 48 hours’ notice.  Weekend work must be submitted for approval 72 hours in advance.

Evacuation Plan (RACE, and Routes of Egress): Please refer to the Evacuation Plans attached. All Consigli employees shall attend the Project Safety Orientation. Consigli Construction will conduct a safety orientation talk to each employee and subcontractor to site specific fire safety protocols. The Muster Point will be the Consigli Job Trailer.

Emergency Management Response:blas In the event of an Emergency the construction workers shall leave the building immediately. Point of assembly/muster shall be as defined in the attached Evacuation plan.  In the Event of a DISASTER, the Superintendent or Safety director shall instruct the construction workers to leave the site or remain in place and await further instruction.  The following steps should be taken in the event of an emergency

When reporting an emergency, please provide the following:

• Your location (Construction site, Campus Dr., Scarborough, ME) phone number, and name;

• The location of the incident (building, floor and room number);

• Nature and extent of the incident (injury, accident, spill, smoke/fire, damage, etc.);

• The name and amount of the material spilled (if applicable); and

• The safest route to the spill (if applicable).

** Please review chapter 8 for additional details.**  

Pre-task Plans:  Pre-task Plans or Job Safety Analyses shall be conducted prior to all and any operation.  Said plan to be reviewed initially with all involved personnel performing that particular task, signed by all workers, including their supervisor, and filed on site.

Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA):  An AHA, depending on level of hazard, may be required for each identifiable feature of work to be performed.  The AHA shall be submitted to Consigli superintendent for review.  AHA’s shall be reviewed with all personnel weekly and shall be signed by all involved personnel performing that particular task, including their supervisor.

Excavations:  All required permitting will be obtained before any excavating is to begin.  If necessary, tabulated data/engineering for shoring and shielding systems will be obtained and available on site always when said systems are in use. All excavations will be inspected by a competent person daily.  Written excavation inspections will be done if the excavation exceeds 5’ or in the event of special conditions. Per the town of Scarborough, blasting must occur between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM.   

Dig Safe Notification – dig safe number will be obtained and posted in the site office.

  • Copies of shoring engineering and tabulated data sheets for all trench boxes or other shoring/shielding systems brought on site will be provided to CCC and be kept in construction office.

  • Please refer to Fall Protection for holes over 6’.

 **Review Chapter 19 for more detail**

Fall Protection: All workers exposed to a fall of 6′ or greater shall be protected by guardrails, safety nets, or personnel fall arrest systems.  This includes, but is not limited to, steel erection, roofing, excavations, scaffold erection and dismantling, overhand brick laying and pre-cast concrete related work.  Holes greater than 2” will be covered with acceptable material (3/4 plywood ½ steel) which will be secured and marked hole (cover must be able to withstand two times the intended load).  Covers will stay in place until the hole/penetration has been filled.  Building perimeters will be protected with some form of fall protection if fall is greater them 6 feet. Cable guard rail systems (if used) will be provided with turnbuckles installed for all straight runs and any straight run over 100 feet in length.  Holes greater than 2” will be covered with acceptable material (3/4 plywood ½ steel) which will be secured and marked hole.  Covers will stay in place until the hole/penetration has been filled. At no time are cross braces on scaffold allowed to be used as fall protection. The use of safety Monitors is prohibited.  Subpart R, Subpart P and Subpart L fall protection exemptions do not apply unless the use of fall protection creates an unsafe condition. 

**Review Chapter 13 for more detail**

Work on Ladders: All work on step ladders/straight ladders will be done correctly per manufacturer’s recommendations.  Any worker who is on a step/straight ladder shall maintain 3 points of contact at all times or will be required to tie off.  Step ladders will not be used as a form of access to a walking /working level, also all straight ladders will be tied off when installed for use. Only ladders with a rating Type 1A or 1AA will be allowed on Consigli projects.

Roof Work: Before any work is to begin on the roof it must be determined what method of fall protection will be implemented.  Use of “safety monitors” is not allowed. The roof will be made water tight by the end of each shift.

Scaffold and Elevated Work Platforms/Material Hoists:  All scaffolding and material hoists shall be inspected daily, by a competent person – designated by each contractor – before each shift. Said inspection shall be documented on installed scaffold tags.  Said Scaffold Inspection Tags shall be located at the stair tower/access point to each section. A scaffold inspection guide will be provided to each designated persons (upon request) by Consigli Construction to aid them with their inspection. All contractors erecting or dismantling scaffolding shall provide CCCI with certification/qualification of scaffold erection training as well as an erection/dismantling plan.  Fall protection is required at all times during erection/dismantling operations.  Overhead protection will be provided for all access points to any buildings located under any form of scaffolding/material hoist.

Aerial Lifts/Scissor lifts:  Area and ground conditions in the intended work area will be inspected for overhead power lines and underground structures.  Aerial lift platforms and scissor lifts shall be inspected daily before each shift by a competent person designated by the contractor using it.  Inspection shall be documented on Inspection tags for each machine in use.  Completed inspection tags shall be filed in the site office. All contractor employees performing work from an aerial lift shall exhibit documented proof of training.  Steel plates or equipment mats will be placed on the ground above any utility/ steam tunnel/underground vault if there will be Aerial lifts operating on them. Workers shall be tied off at all times when using an aerial lift!! No part of the aerial lift will be allowed to cross the plane of the fence that runs parallel the railroad tracks.  Aerial lifts shall be oriented so boom, in the event of hydraulic failure, will not foul tracks.

Haz Com/Global Harmonization:  All contractors bringing materials/chemicals on site shall provide Safety Data Sheets to the Consigli project team.

  • SDS sheets shall be kept on file in Consigli Construction’s project office
  • All SDS sheets shall be readily accessible.

Fire Protection: A Hot Work Permit is required for any activity that generates heat, sparks or has an open flame. This will be coordinated through the Consigli. (If needed).   Any hot work will stop one hour before the regular end of the day work stoppage.   Flammables will not be stored inside the building or left overnight on the scaffold or in the building.  All combustible or flammable materials will be stored in an appropriately rated lockable cabinet located no closer than 50 feet from the nearest structure. Fire extinguishers will be provided for every 3000 square feet.  They will be installed on job made stands and conspicuously located throughout.  They will be part of the daily inspection with extinguisher log completed monthly.  Storage of any acetylene cylinders will be done in a secure and upright area, with good ventilation.  This will be a strict no smoking project. All penetrations leading outside of the construction area will be fire stopped using approved fire rated material prior to the end of each shift.  Torches will have arrestors attached on regulators.

**Review Chapter 17 for more detail.**

Electrical: The electrician will be responsible for all temp power and any temp lighting that may be needed.  They will coordinate all lock out tag out procedures regarding electricity during the “make safe” operation prior to demo.  There are no overhead power lines in any of the intended work areas.  All electrical tools, cords and equipment must be in good working order. To that end, all electrical tools and components must be visually checked on a daily basis.  Any tools with damaged cords or damaged cords must be taken out of service immediately.  All cords must be equipped with a ground pin.   Flat three wire cords are not allowed.  Only SJO and SJT, or other similarly rated cords, shall be used.  Cords must be 12 gauge or better.  The electrician shall be responsible for all temp power and any general temp lighting that may be needed.  Subcontractors will be responsible for task lighting in the event that lighting above the OSHA standard is required for a particular work task.  The electrician will coordinate all lock out tag out procedures. All temporary power for the project will be installed on protected and dedicated circuits with 100% GFCI protection.  GFCI will be tested by the electric contractor to assure proper function with a log book filed with CCC monthly.  No live electrical work shall be conducted

Cranes: Cranes will be used in a number of operations; pile driving, structural precast erection, AHU installations, etc.  All subcontractors will be required to submit comprehensive pick plans prior to use.  Depending on size and height of crane, a FAA permit may need to be filled out prior to set up.  Location and set up will be reviewed with crane operator prior to set up and pick.  All lifting operations will require that the operator and any involved contractors follow the steps listed below as well as in CCC Crane Safety policy

1.  All Hoisting equipment will have an up to date 3rd party inspection certificate with the equipment which will be copied and filed in the office trailer.

2. All lattice boom cranes will have an independent 3rd party inspection completed each time one is set up on the project and every 6 months thereafter.

3. All workers working with the crane shall have all appropriate signalmen/rigging qualifications.

3. All equipment operators will be required to have in their possession all appropriate licensing and training as required by OSHA and the State of Maine.

4. NCCO certification will be required for all crane operators who will be operated on site for 5 or more continuous days.

5. All underground vaults and existing utilities will be marked before any excavation can begin as well as before any crane is set up.

6. Cribbing for outriggers shall be at minimum 3X the area width of outrigger floater. (Cranes only)

7.  No hoisted material shall cross the plane of the fence that runs parallel with the railroad tracks. (No Fly Zone)

8.  Crane shall never be oriented with boom facing railroad tracks so in the event of catastrophic failure, the boom will not foul tracks.

Confined Space:  A written plan will be needed to work in any tanks/vaults and crawl spaces designated as permit required confined spaces by CCC.  Said plan shall include air monitoring.

** Please review chapter 21 for additional details.  

Designated First Aid Plan: Consigli Construction shall follow Site Safety Plan for first Aid.  A list of first aid/CPR trained people shall be posted on site.  Report any incidents to the Safety Director.

Lean Requirements: No materials shall be delivered to the site earlier than 3 days before said materials are to be installed/put into place.  If materials have to be delivered before that 3 day time period, subcontractor shall get prior approval from Consigli Superintendent. Because of this, notification / scheduling is required for all deliveries to the site. Subcontractors must notify Contractor at least 24 hours in advance. Contractor has the right to refuse any deliveries not properly scheduled or due to logistical constraints as necessary. All subcontractors delivered materials shall be placed on wheeled carts, wheeled racks or in wheeled bins so as to necessitate easy relocation in the event materials need to be moved.  Carts, racks, or dollies shall not exceed manufacturers intended weight loads.  Materials/tools can be delivered and stored on pallets only if pallet jacks are delivered simultaneously with said delivery to provide for ready mobility.  Additionally, pallet jacks need to remain in immediate area. Each subcontractor will need to supply their own pallet jacks for their own materials and keep their pallet jack within reasonable distance at all times. All work stations shall be provided with wheeled trash bins for immediate placement of all debris produced as a part of the subcontractor’s operations. 

All trash will be immediately placed in containers provided by Consigli.  No trash or materials shall be left on the floor. Subcontractors shall, where feasible, elevate all electrical extension cords, hoses, or cables – removing them from all walking/working surfaces.  Electrical Cords, when elevated shall be supported or suspended in a manner that does not subject them to damage.  Storage of delivered materials in cardboard containers shall be discouraged.  When materials must stay in cardboard containers, said containers shall be removed from the projects immediately after product is unpacked. 

Subcontractor will participate in schedule development meetings as required by Consigli

5S – Jobsite and Office Organization: 5S is a systematic approach to jobsite/workplace organization that results in a safer and more efficient work environment. The superintendent is responsible for holding trades to these standards weekly/daily. 5S is a part of the Pre-Op inspection.

Sort – Only have tools/material that you need, relocate or throw out everything else Set – Keep needed items in the correct place to allow for easy and immediate retrieval Shine – Keep the workplace neat and clean Standardize – The methods used to make “Sort” “Set” “Shine” habitual Sustain – Maintain these established procedures and improve your methods

  • These requirements are in Exhibit G of each subcontractor’s contract
  • This will be a topic during the pre-op meeting and will be brought up during the safety meetings as well.
  • This is a big culture change for most people, but trades will adapt when they understand it is nonnegotiable and they see improvements to the jobsite
  • Limit the material brought on site. If the incoming material is not being installed within the next 3-5 days reject the delivery (long lead time items are an exception).
  • After giving notice to a trade, throw out material that isn’t where it should be

Restricted Areas:  Contractors are prohibited from entering adjacent occupied areas unless work has been previously authorized and scheduled.  Only designated workers will be allowed into the occupied areas.  Trespassing on railroad tracks is reason for immediate removal from the site. No exceptions.  No material/debris shall be allowed to cross the plane of the fence running parallel the railroad tracks.

Steel Erection: Steel workers will be required to use fall protection at 6′. Consigli will release documentation when column footings reach 75% of breaking strength.  The steel erection sub will be required to submit a detailed erection sequencing plan that illustrates crane locations and capacity of cranes at those locations. Decks will only be turned over for general use after they have undergone an inspection by a member of the CCC safety department.

The steel erection sub will be required to submit a detailed erection sequencing plan that illustrates crane locations and capacity of cranes at those locations.  Fall protection will be determined for connectors after pre-construction meeting with sub is held.  Fall protection will be required at 6’, at all times during steel erection

Once decking is complete and all required fall protection is installed, CCC will walk the area with the steel erection subcontractor.  Provided all required elements of fall protection are in place, CCC will complete and give a copy of the “custody of fall protection” form to the steel erection subcontractor.  Maintenance and overall responsibility of the fall protection system will fall to CCC.

Materials Management: Getting materials into and out of the project will be a challenge that needs to be adequately planned.  All deliveries are to be scheduled with the CCC Superintendent.  A comprehensive Activity Hazard Analysis shall be done on all materials that will be hoisted and placed into or on the building. Only materials which will be used/installed in a reasonable amount of time will be delivered to the site. Attention must be paid to structural analysis in regards to loading of existing floors with material and equipment.

Back End of Site Safety Plan

 

Environmental Emergency Contact and Management Response

Environmental Issues: A hazardous material report has been created by McCarthy Environmental for MMC listing potential hazardous material located within the two story building to be demolished. This report will be on site at all times and available for review at any time.

Silica:  Any activity which can produce silica dust will use engineering controls to keep dust to a minimum.  There will be no dry cutting of any masonry material allowed; if water can not be used then a dustless vacuum system consisting of a HEPA dustless vacuum system shall be used.  An exposure assessment shall be required of any worker involved initially in grinding, demoing or cutting masonry so as to establish the silica exposure level.  No respirators will be issued without the express consent of the Consigli Safety department.  Nuisance mask like an N95, if used, will be on a voluntary basis and at no time will these types of mask be issued to the workers.

Written exposure control plan. (1) The employer shall establish and implement a written exposure control plan that contains at least the following elements:

(I) A description of the tasks in the workplace that involve exposure to respirable crystalline silica;

(II) A description of the engineering controls, work practices, and respiratory protection used to limit employee exposure to respirable crystalline silica for each task;

(III) A description of the housekeeping measures used to limit employee exposure to respirable crystalline silica; and

(IV) A description of the procedures used to restrict access to work areas, when necessary, to minimize the number of employees exposed to respirable crystalline silica and their level of exposure, including exposures generated by other employers or sole proprietors.

(2) The employer shall review and evaluate the effectiveness of the written exposure control plan at least annually and update it as necessary.

(3) The employer shall make the written exposure control plan readily available for examination and copying, upon request, to each employee covered by this section, their designated representatives, the Assistant Secretary and the Director.

(4) The employer shall designate a competent person to make frequent and regular inspections of job sites, materials, and equipment to implement the written exposure control plan.

Mold: Mold issues are not anticipated to be prevalent on this project, however if mold is discovered Consigli’s mold remediation policy will be implemented and followed.

Noise: Noise exposure will also be a concern so all deliveries must be coordinated with CCC Superintendent to limit their impact on the surrounding areas.  Normal working hours will be between 7am and 3:30pm; any contractor who may need to work late must first seek approval from the CCC Superintendent.  Noise levels will be monitored if high levels of noise are found to exist or could be expected to assure that noise levels do not exceed acceptable OSHA levels.  Consigli permissible noise policy and procedures will be followed. Blasting will only take place between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM.

Equipment issues:  All operators will be required to have in their possession all appropriate licensing and training as required by OSHA.  All safety devices and warning alarms must be in good working order and all leaks are to be repaired immediately.  All equipment will be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations for safe usage and have its operators manual as well as an extinguisher with it at all times.

Exposure to the Visitors, Staff and Students: Businesses around the project will be opened at different times; continuous review of logistics and vehicle traffic will need to be updated as work flows.  The logistics plan must be followed by all workers.  Any means of access/emergency egress leading to or from the surrounding buildings which may find itself under any type of work will be provided with overhead protection.  At no time is any worker allowed to enter any area in which they are not working.  Non-fraternization with staff and visitors will be stressed with all subcontractors’ personnel during orientations. 

Planning:  The project team as well as CCC safety department will meet with each subcontractor, before they start to review their Site Specific Safety and Health Program and all project specific Job Safety Analyses. The project team shall be an integrated mix of owner, architect, engineer and Consigli Construction personnel.  If, after reviewing programs and meeting with the individual subcontractor, the team is satisfied with the risk control direction, they will be permitted to begin work. 

Safety Spot Recognition Plan: The purpose of this plan is to instantly recognize workers  “on the spot” for working safely and to reward those workers immediately. This will assist CCC reduce the complacency of workers on all of our projects. Members from the CCC and owner project team (Supers, PM, APM, PE, OPM, Architect, Owners, etc..) will be provided with 5$ Dunkin Donut gift cards prior to their walk on site. They are to present these cards to workers who are working safely and or those taking additional steps to work safely. After issuing the card, the name and hard hat sticker number of the worker as well as a brief description of what they were doing will be documented in a log that will be maintained in the field office. This shall be completed at a minimum of twice a week. It is required that different field staff take turns in issuing the cards to workers in the field. Also required will be the communication of who is be recognized to other sub contractors/workers through foreman meetings and daily stand ups. At the end of the project the sub-contractor who has had the most workers recognized will receive an appropriate acknowledgment from CCC as well as some type of reward that is to be determined by CCC field staff.

Additional Controls: Prior to start of any work, all personnel involved in the project, including project managers must be:

  1. Trained and orientated by Consigli Construction.  Stickers will be issued and displayed on hard hats
  2. All workers will provide Consigli with an OSHA 10 card.
  3. All project workers shall participate in mandatory drug screening.
  4. Consigli shall designate a safety manager to manage safety and the OCIP.

All emergency telephone numbers will be posted at the superintendent’s office.
