Site Safety Plan

Scope of Proposed Operations: This project entails the selective interior renovation of the existing Parmenter School Building in Arlington, MA.  The project is being completed to provide temporary space during the larger Arlington High School project taking place on Massachusetts Ave. The project will consist of the following:

  • Selective Demolition and Abatement
  • New Elevator shaft and installation of new elevator
  • Removal of an existing Oil tank and installation of temp tank.
  • Slab on Grade Concrete work for wheelchair lift in basement.
  • Exterior scaffold for roof access to construct elevator penthouse.
  • Select MEP for new facilities as needed,
  • Temporary Emergency stairwell for egress on the North side of the school.
  • New finishes throughout to complete the project.

Logistically, the project will be accessed via the existing doorway along Irving St.  Public access will be maintained as needed for the pre-school adjacent within the Parmenter School building. All employees on the workforce will be required to submit to a CORI background check prior to starting work onsite. Project duration will be from Spring 2020-August 2020.

Sample Logistics Plan.

 

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-up stretch program); 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): Main construction access will be restricted to routes pre-determined by Arlington Public Schools and Consigli. All contractors will be responsible for adhering to Arlington restrictions and regulations regarding driving, parking and delivering materials. Pedestrians will be given the right of way at all times. There is no parking provided on the project. 

IAQ (indoor air quality): This project will occur in an occupied building. During construction, an indoor air quality plan will be implemented. This plan will ensure that adjoining areas have not been contaminated during construction. The air will be tested for typical indicators such as but not limited to temperature, relative humidity, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, dust particulates and VOC’s (volatile organic compounds). Monitoring (frequency/duration) will be done in accordance with a written IAQ plan provided by a Certified Industrial Hygienist. Barriers will be set up between any work areas and occupied spaces prior to the start of any work. Negative air machines will also be used to create a negative air flow from the occupied space to ensure that no dust and debris enter an occupied area. If a hard barrier cannot be set up set up due to an unforeseen condition or emergency, a 6-mil poly barrier will then be used. This will only be allowed after approval from CCC Superintendent.

Designated work hours (any work outside these hours must have prior CCC approval):  Project hours are to be 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday. Off-hours work must be scheduled with the CCC Superintendent in advance. 

Life Safety:  A detailed fire protection plan and NFPA 241 plan has been developed with input from Consigli, Code Red, and the building owner. All impairments to existing life safety systems will be correctly permitted and coordinated with the building manager and the Arlington Fire Department.   

Any penetration through smoke and fire walls for new plumbing or electrical circuits necessitates: 

  • Smoke and fire wall penetrations shall not be left unattended.
  • All penetrations are sealed by the end of each work shift.

Notification of Automatic Sprinkler System or Fire Alarm system shall be to:

  • Arlington Public School Fire Protection Program Manager
  • Consigli Fire Protection Program Manager
  • DPS Command Center
  • Arlington Fire Dept.
  • Arlington Public School administration, as well as affected Staff
  • All shut downs shall have a dedicated fire watch.

If it will be necessary to erect hard wall partitions in corridors adjacent to the work space: 

  • All affected occupants shall be notified of corridor width reduction.
  • All occupants shall be aware of primary and secondary routes of egress.
  • Additional egress signage shall be posted.
  • Corridor storage is prohibited.

 

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

Demolition:  Prior to the start of demo operations, the contractor preforming demo will confirm that all utilities leading into the area have been made safe. The electrician will disconnect and lock out all electrical, the plumber will do the same with any plumbing lines, and the HVAC subcontractor will do the same on the HVAC piping and duct work.  Lock out tag out will be reviewed during the pre-construction safety meetings to assure disconnect and responsibility for protection of existing utilities is safe for any construction activities to commence. In spaces where some electrical or mechanical must remain live, a color coding system will be utilized for easy identification of live utilities that must stay active and utilities that must be removed.  Any and all utilities spay painted Red are not to be touched and need to be protected during all operations. Utilities spray painted Green are to be removed as part of the selective demolition process only after lock-out/tag-out has been confirmed and utilities tested. If any utilities are unmarked, they shall be considered live. The demo contractor will be responsible for completing CCC demo checklist prior to the start of any work in their target areas

Fall Protection: Project fall exposures include any work on the roof, new elevator shaft opening, and scaffold erection.  All work over 6 feet requires some form of fall protection in accordance with CCC fall protection policy.  All fall protection for work preformed on Scaffold will be needed at a height of 6 feet or greater. All scaffold erectors will maintain the ability to have fall protection by donning a harness and lanyard at all times during erection. 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 four times the intended load).  Covers will stay in place until the hole/penetration has been filled. 

Building perimeters (to be protected with cable guard rail system with turnbuckles to be installed for all straight runs and any straight run over 100 feet.  Before any work is to begin on the roof it must be determined what method of fall protection will be implemented (fall protection plan, 100% tie off, guard rails, flagging etc.) All workers working on a roof with a slope greater than 4 to 1 and exposed to a fall greater than 6 feet will be tied off 100% of the time spent in this location. Workers on a roof with a slope less than 4 to 1 may put flagging (six feet for roofers-15 feet for everyone else) lines up, whenever roofers and any other trade are on the same roof then the flagging must be pulled back to the maximum distance.  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 2x the intended axle load). Covers will stay in place until the hole/penetration has been filled with duct or Pipe riser which extends above the deck.

**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 and could be exposed to a fall greater than the height of their work on the ladder will be required to install a form of fall protection.  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.

Scaffold and elevated work platforms:  When scaffolds are to be used, all scaffolds, stair towers, supported frame, pipe staging shall be inspected daily before each shift by a competent person designated by each individual contractor who will be using it, which will be documented on Inspection tags located at the stair tower/access point to each section. A scaffold inspection checklist (or visible tag) will be completed prior to the beginning of each shift and filed in the site office (or displayed on the scaffold).  This will be completed by the designated person from each individual contractor. A scaffold inspection guide will be provided to each designated person (upon request) by Consigli Construction to aid them with their inspection. All contractors who will be erect scaffold will provide CCC with certification/Qualification of scaffold erection training as well as an erection/dismantling plan.  Fall protection is required 100% during erection/dismantling. Overhead protection will be provided for all access points to any buildings located under any form of scaffolding.

Consigli Safety Program requires that all rolling scaffolds (baker scaffolds) be equipped with guardrails when the working deck is above 4 feet. Outriggers are required for all rolling scaffolds when the working height reaches 2x the width of the scaffold.   

** Please review chapter 14 for additional details. **

Aerial/Scissor Lifts: Lifts are not expected on the project.  If needed, however, the area, ground conditions, slab strength, in the intended work zone, will be inspected for overhead power lines, sink holes, covers, or any other unsafe conditions which cause an unsafe incident. Aerial lift platforms will be inspected daily before each shift by a competent person designated by the affected employer. All who will be performing work from an aerial lift will show documented proof of training prior to using the lift. Steel plates or equipment mats will be placed on the ground above any utility/ steam tunnel if there will be Aerial lifts operating on them. Workers will be tied off at all times when using an aerial lift.

Chemical and Materials:  All Materials and chemicals used on-site will have Safety Data Sheets (SDS) provided before being brought onsite.

  • SDS sheets on file in Consigli Construction’s Site Safety Plan
  • All SDS sheets shall be readily accessible.

** Please review chapter 20 for additional details. **

Fire Protection:  The Consigli hot work permit program will be implemented for any hot-work that is required. This will be coordinated through Arlington Public Schools, Consigli, and Arlington Fire Department. 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 the extinguisher log completed monthly. Storage of any acetylene cylinders will be done in a secure and upright area, with good ventilation and under permit from the Arlington Fire Department. 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. ALL workers will comply with the 241 plan and AFD/NFPA Hot Work Training Requirements.

**Review Chapter 17 for more detail.**

Electrical: 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 service… All cords must be equipped with a ground pin, flat three wire cords are not allowed. SJO and SJT or other similarly rated cords only shall be used.  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. 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 weekly to assure proper function with a log book filed with CCC monthly. No live electrical work will be conducted.

**Review Chapter 26 for more detail**

Cranes:  Crane use is not expected for this project.  If necessary, Crane work plans must be submitted to the CCC safety Department prior to crane mobilization on-site.  This work plan may also be required to include the FAA criteria letter of determination with regards to crane proximity to flight lines. There is a requirement to assure that certified riggers, signalmen, and crane assemblymen are utilized. All picks are to be done by a licensed operator.  As previously mentioned, a detailed pick plan will be required to assure that no picks are critical in nature. Critical picks are defined as those involving 2 cranes lifting simultaneously, a pick that is over 75% of capacity, a pick that involves the lifting of a man basket, or any other lift that is deemed to involve special conditions.  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.

Environmental Emergency Contact and Management Response

Consigli identified Emergency Response Subcontractor;

Name:  Cyn Environmental Services, Inc. (800)242-5818

100 Tosca Drive Stoughton, MA 02072. 

Asbestos: A Hazardous Materials report has been prepared by Universal Environmental Consultants dated December 12, 2018 and is available in the Consigli Field Office for review. Asbestos has been identified in the building. Asbestos abatement will be completed by a licensed/certified contractor. Asbestos has been found in the planned work areas. The complete table and “List of Materials tested, Quantities, and Locations” can be found with the hazardous material report. 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 HAZOUDOS MATERIAL REPORT & CORRESPONDING ABATEMENT REPORT WITH THEIR WORKERS. A copy of the hazardous Material/abatement report will be on site at all times and available to anyone request it.

Due to the fact that some asbestos may remain in place and not be abated during construction all workers will need to have at a minimum Asbestos awareness training.

All work and disposal will be done in compliance with state and federal regulations and standards

Lead:  A Hazardous Materials report relating to lead has been completed within the work areas and is available in the Consigli Field Office for review. For renovation projects, all painted surfaces both interior and exterior of the existing must be considered lead containing, unless tested and show as otherwise. Consigli workers who will need to perform work on these painted surfaces may need to disturb this paint by drilling, sawing, demo, fastening, or carpentry. In doing so they will use saws, drills, screw guns, impact wrenches, sawzalls, hand wrenches, ads, crowbars, hammers, and other hand tools. 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 by all subcontractors for all tasks prior to when the full scale of this work is to take place. This does not mean that lead 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 workers on this must have completed Lead Awareness training prior to starting on this project. Hand wash stations will be provided to ensure proper hygiene during the project. An exposure assessment will also be done for any task which will disturb any lead containing material.

Silica: Any activity which can produce silica dust will use engineering controls to keep dust to a minimum.  A written exposure plan must be developed for all silica producing tasks that clearly defines the following:

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

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

3) A description of the housekeeping measures used to limit employee exposure to respirable crystalline silica

4) 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.

There will be no dry cutting of any masonry material allowed; if water cannot be used then a dustless vacuum system consisting of HEPA dustless vacuum system will be used.  Prior to the project going full scale an exposure assessment of a worker grinding and cutting masonry while using the HEPA system an exposure assessment will be done 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.

Polychlorinated Biphenyl’s (PCBs):  At this time there are no activities which are planned which would disturb any surface with suspect amounts of PCB’s. This does not mean that regulated levels of PCB’s 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.

Light ballast unless labeled “No PCB’S” will be designated PCB containing, All PCB containing material shall be removed and disposed of in accordance with all local, state (MEMEP Special waste management rules 06-096-CMR 400) and federal regulations and be coordinated with the building owner. All other inquiries or locations in regards to PCB containing material can be located in the Hazardous Material survey. If identified on any of the materials to be impacted, PCB‘s will be abated. Any and all PCB remediation will be performed by a licensed /qualified contractor

** Please review chapter 29 for additional details **

Freon/Glycol:  All Freon/Glycol materials will be removed from equipment and stored per manufacturer’s recommendations before it is disturbed, moved or removed.  All workers who will be working with the above-mentioned materials must provide CCC with certifications or qualifications.  If not re-used, a disposal manifest will be provided to CCC.

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.

** Please review chapter 22 for additional details **

Noise:  Noise exposure will be a concern, so all operations must be coordinated with the Consigli Superintendent to limit any excess noise impact on the surrounding areas. All activities and tasks which may cause loud noise will be monitored and building occupants will be notified of locations and dates/times of potential elevated noise levels.

** Please review chapter 29 for additional details **

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 project teams (Supers, PM, APM, PE, OPM, Architect, Owners, etc..) will be provided with $5 Dunkin Donut gift cards (or similar) 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 three times 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 up meetings. 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.

Exposure to the Visitors, Neighbors, and Occupants: The Parmenter School pre-school will be continuously occupying areas of the building immediately adjacent to areas of construction. CCC will provide temporary barricades and other forms of protection required to protect the pre-school personnel, pupils, and the general public from injury/disruption due to construction activities. Contractors must provide all temporary barriers necessary to protect adjacent areas from dust, noise, etc. Contractors must also provide protective measures required to provide free and safe passage of Owner’s personnel and the general public to and from occupied portions of building.

Be alert to adjacent areas that may be affected by construction activities.  Consider artwork that is located above, below, or on a wall behind which activity is taking place. Consider the possible effects of shock and vibration, dust, heat- or fire-generating equipment, liquids, products with strong odors. Also consider restaurant occupancy.

Fraternization between construction employees and project owners, staff, or visitors will not be permitted.  Loud and profane language or clothing with offensive language will not be allowed on the jobsite. Extra efforts must be made to keep noise to a minimum.
