Site Specific Safety and Health Program

4650 Broadway

Project # 2550

Emergency Response Plan

ALL EMERGENCIES SHOULD BE REPORTED BY CALLING 9-1-1

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); Training (Integrating sub-contractors into the Consigli Safety Culture); 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.

Site Safety Plan

A Consigli designated individual shall wait at the entrance to the work area to escort Emergency Services personnel as they arrive.

Scope of Proposed Operations: This site specific safety plan will cover new construction work as abatement and demolition work has been completed. The job is expected to start in April, 2022. The construction schedule has a duration of 30 months. The project consists of the construction of a new residential building made up of a lower podium section that takes up the majority of the existing lot. There will be a slimmer tower section above the podium.

The project will be devised into several phases of work. The first phase will consist of excavation, pile driving, and foundation installation. Once they are complete, the project will move into superstructure phase. During superstructure, formwork and rebar will be installed and concrete will be placed. As superstructure continues, MEP trades will begin roughing in HVAC, electrical, plumbing and sprinkler systems. The exterior wall system will begin being installed. The elevator installation will begin during this phase.

Once the building is topped off, the roof will be installed. The interior program will begin including drywall installation, tape and paint. Flooring and tile will be installed. Mechanical and electrical equipment will be installed.

At its peak, the project will have approximately 250-300 workers representing different trades. The installation of the fence and signage will precede any active work on site. Pedestrian walkways will be established using plastic barricades as part of the fence installation.

COVID-19: There is a site-specific COVID-19 safety plan developed for this job. It is available upon request. The covid plan has and will be modified as new information becomes available in order to protect the health and welfare of everyone on site.

Adjacent Properties: At no point should any person from the public enter the site/building for any reason. In order to ensure this, all entrances to the project will be secured. Should an employee be approached by non-project personnel, Consigli should be notified immediately. All egress and travel paths to the work area are to remain open and unimpeded at all times. Any challenge with coordination of deliveries/load out shall be brought to Consigli’s attention.

Identify the specific route in and out of the construction site (Traffic Management): For this project, all deliveries and waste removal will be moved via the designated truck route, which may be subject to change and be coordinated with the Consigli Superintendent. All deliveries shall be scheduled in advance. Flaggers will be utilized as needed in order to control the flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE): All workers will wear hard hats, high visibility shirts/vests, and safety glasses 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 hands, 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.

Designated work hours (any work outside these hours must have prior Consigli approval): Most work shall take place during regular business hours of, Monday – Friday 7:00am to 6:00 pm. Any work which may need to take place outside of these hours will need to be approved by the Consigli Superintendent after coordination with the building manager. A valid AHV must be obtained from the NYC DOB for any work taking place outside of these hours. Deliveries must be coordinated with the Consigli superintendent, with at least 48 hours’ notice.

Shutdowns: Shutdowns must be coordinated with the Consigli superintendent. Depending on the nature of the shutdown, they may occur off-hours.

Evacuation Plan (RACE, and Routes of Egress): Please refer to the Evacuation Plan attached. All employees shall attend the Project Safety Orientation. At the orientation, workers will be made aware of the evacuation plan, the muster point, and general safety rules and regulations. Workers will also present Consigli with any applicable training documentation. The orientation verification, along with copies of training documents will be filed on site and entered into the electronic orientation log.

Emergency Management Response: 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 Manager shall instruct the construction workers to leave the site or remain in place and await further instruction.

When reporting an emergency, please provide the following:

• Your location (4650 Broadway, New York, NY 10034) phone number, and name:

• 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 any and all operations. Said plan is to be reviewed with all involved personnel performing that particular task, signed by all workers, including their supervisor, and filed on site. The purpose of the PTP/JSA is to discuss the work ahead for the day, ensure the availability of tools, equipment, and material, and convey the safe work plan to all workers on site.

Fall Protection: All workers exposed to a fall of 6′ or greater shall be protected by guardrails, safety nets, or personal fall arrest systems. This includes, but is not limited to, steel erection, roofing, 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 or ½” steel) which will be secured and marked with high visibility paint (cover must be able to withstand two times the maximum intended load). 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.

**Review Chapter 13 for more detail

Work on Ladders: All work on step ladders/straight ladders will be done correctly per manufacturer’s recommendations. Ladders must be inspected and be found in good condition before use. Step ladders will not be used as a form of access to a walking/ working level. Also, all straight ladders will be secured when installed for use.

Scaffold and Elevated Work Platforms: All scaffolding shall be inspected daily, by a competent person designated by each contractor, before each shift. Scaffold inspections shall be documented on installed scaffold tags. Said Scaffold Inspection Tags shall be located at the stair tower/access point to each scaffold section. A scaffold inspection guide will be provided to each designated person by Consigli to aid them with their inspection, which must be turned in after the inspection is completed. For baker scaffolds, tags and inspection checklists are not required, though competent person inspection is still required. Fall protection is required at all times during erection/dismantling operations if workers are exposed to a fall of 6’ or greater. All workers using a scaffold must possess documentation of training.

It is anticipated that scaffolds will be used by the mason. The podium exterior masonry is expected to be completed with the use of a supported scaffold, while the tower is anticipated to be completed using suspended scaffolds.

Scissor lifts: Area and ground conditions in the intended work area will be inspected for suitability. Scissor lifts shall be inspected daily before each shift by the subcontractor using it. Inspection shall be documented on a scissor lift inspection form. Subcontractor employees performing work from a lift shall provide documented proof of training.
