Site Specific Safety and Health Program

West Point Anderson Athletic Center

Emergency Response Plan

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

SITE INFORMATION

This Emergency Response Plan (E.R.P.) is specifically developed for Consigli Construction Management work associated with the West Point Anderson Athletic Center.

Memo from the President

FROM: Greg Burns, President

TO: Employees and Subcontractors

SUBJECT: Job Safety

Over the past several years we have made significant improvements to our occupational health and safety program. These improvements have resulted in fewer employee injuries, fewer OSHA citations and an exemplary safety image within the construction industry. Through the combined efforts of our staff and employees we have become more competitive and in turn, we have provided more jobs for all our employees.

As employees and subcontractors to Consigli Construction Management, you represent all of us in the workplace and we need your pro-active support to continue making safety improvements and continue expanding our market share. Therefore, we are asking all employees and subcontractors to read, understand and practice the enclosed Health and Safety principles and guidelines. This means routinely training employees, conducting weekly toolbox meetings, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, using fall protection when necessary and practicing all other safety-related items listed in the Safety and Health Handbook. Even more importantly it means developing a safety-conscious attitude.

We take safety very seriously and we expect you to do the same. If you have any questions, call me or ask the Site Superintendent at your worksite.

Thank you,

Site Safety Plan

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.

Logistics/Access/Traffic Management: Main construction access will be restricted to routes pre-determined by West Point and Consigli Construction Superintendent. All contractors will be responsible for adhering to Consigli Construction and West Point Academy restrictions and regulations in regards to driving, parking and delivering materials. Strict adherence to posted speed limits and parking locations is required. Pedestrians will be given the right of way at all times. Parking will be designated in pre-determined contractor parking locations and reviewed during orientation. Pedestrian access through the campus must be along posted walkways and sidewalks. No shortcuts!

Gate A & B – Gate “A” & B (As per the logistics plan). Will be mainly designated as the Construction site Laydown area.
Gate C – Gate “C” (As per logistics plan). Will be designated as an alternate use gate.
Gate D – East side “Main Construction Gate/Access to site office area. Debris dumpsters and porta johns will also be staged in this area.

Designated work hours (any work outside these hours must have prior Consigli approval): All work shall take place during business hours, Monday – Friday 7:30am to 5:30pm, any work which may need to take place outside of these hours will need to be approved by the CONSIGLI Superintendent.

Services: Any compromises to West Point Anderson Athletic Center Project site during the work performed will be handled accordingly

During weekly project meetings, if needed upcoming work that may compromise service or impact the public shall be talked about with Site Superintendent and scheduled for off shift if the group decides it will be needed.
The on-site superintendent shall perform weekly inspections of all adjacent establishments and businesses for the duration of the project to ensure minimal construction impact.

Badging Requirements: West Point access badges must be obtained by all identified personnel prior to working on this project. All workers will be required to fill out a “West Point Local Area Credential Application” at the Visitors Center at which time the West Point Police will perform a background check prior to approving an entry badge (See Below). Badges will issued by West Point Police and will be scanned and inspected daily at all entry gates. Badges shall be worn so they are visible at all times. All personnel will comply with West Point security requirements and posted campus laws.

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

Subcontractors under their contract shall be responsible for drafting and reviewing all ASA/JSA’s with their workers each Monday as well as toolbox talks that address the work that they will be performing and that which is relative to safe work practices.

Demolition: Pre-work surveys

Live utilities will be running through the building prior to building scheduled demolition. It is for this reason that Consigli will require that all MEP subcontractors perform a pre-demolition survey to ensure that the work areas are made-safe for demolition work to commence.

From this survey, the competent person from each trade will relay back any unsafe conditions to the Consigli Superintendent. At no time shall demolition work commence without Consigli Superintendent having all documented “Make Safes” provided by the responsible MEP subcontractors that confirm the isolation of all utilities feeding the construction area.

Pre-Demolition Make Safe

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 subcontracted 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. Subcontractor coordination and completion of the safe work permit shall be through the Consigli Superintendent.

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 spray painted (or otherwise marked) Red are not to be touched and are 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 until they are marked. Any existing walls shall be removed using hand tools until investigation shows what mechanical systems are present behind the wall. The demo contractor will be responsible for completing CCNY demo checklist prior to the start of any work in their target areas.

Lockout/Tagout, scheduling shutdowns : All mechanical, electrical, plumbing, etc. systems that require work to be performed on them shall be effectively LOTO to a de-energized state. These procedures shall follow in strict accordance with the OSHA requirements in 1910.147 – Control of Hazardous Energy, NFPA 70E, NFPA 99, etc. West Point Facilities may have procedures already established for this work. In every case, shutdowns of all types are required to be coordinated with the West Point Management team. At no time will work be performed on any system prior to this meeting taking place.

Beaufort Scale of Wind Force

An aerial lift can be very dangerous. Operating an aerial lift when it’s windy can be a deadly mistake. You must be able to determine if the wind force is too dangerous to safely operate your aerial lift. Below is a chart to help you determine the wind speed and if you should or should not be working. The Beaufort Scale of Wind Force is accepted internationally and used in communicating weather conditions. It consists of number 0 – 12, each representing a certain strength or velocity Corp of wind at 33 feet (10m) above ground or in the open. This should be used to assess when it is safe to operate your powered access equipment.

Note: Approximate corrections for wind speeds at other heights are:

6 feet subtract 30 percent 10 feet subtract 20 percent 20 feet subtract 10 percent 50 feet add 10 percent 100 feet add 25 percent

Aerial/Scissor Lifts: (CONSIGLI PROGRAM APPENDIX HH – SCISSOR LIFT INSPECTION FORM, APPENDIX JJ – AERIAL LIFT INSPECTION FORM)

Aerial lifts may be required for any exterior restoration work if required. Prior to use the area and ground conditions, in the intended work area, 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. 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/ underground structures if there will be Aerial lifts operating directly over them.All aerial lift work on Campus roadways may require additional flag persons to control traffic and protect the public. Such use of flag person shall be evaluated prior to commencement of work and be added to the subcontractors JSA/ASA for all workers to review. ALL WORKERS SHALL UTILIZE FALL PROTECTION SYSTEMS WHILE OPERATING AERIAL LIFTS AT ALL TIMES.

Wind shall be a major contributing factor to safe operation of aerial lifts by workers. The “Beaufort Scale of Wind Force” (Chart Above this Paragraph) shall be the deciding control measure for safe operation during wind gusts and sustained winds. The below chart shall be reviewed and implemented when winds exceeding the levels outlined are experienced during aerial lift operations. No supervisor or worker shall allow any aerial lift operation where sustained winds or wind gusts exceed the below measurements.

HEAVY EQUIPMENT USE: (CONSIGLI PROGRAM APPENDIX UU – POWERED INDUSTRIAL TRUCK CHECKLIST)

Silica: Engineering/Work Practice Controls

Where applicable, Consigli Superintendents shall ensure that all related construction activities with potential for Silica exposure will be consistent with OSHA’s Construction Standard Table 1 (APPENDIX DDD). To ensure the highest level of protection for workers on all Consigli projects, engineering and work practice controls, including administrative controls, shall be implemented to reduce and maintain employee exposure to silica at or below the PEL, to the extent that such controls are feasible.

To achieve this level of protection, Consigli Superintendents and Subcontractors shall, at a minimum; Provide a detailed Job Safety Analysis (JSA) outlining all potential silica hazards and required control measures.

If vacuuming is required, specialized vacuums with HEPA filtration are required. Methods to use and empty vacuums in a manner that minimizes the reentry of silica into the workplace shall be described and used.

Ensure respiratory protection is selected based on guidance in 1926.1153 Table 1 or based on a Certified Industrial Hygienist’s or competent person’s assessment of the potential airborne exposure.

Ensure that compressed air is NEVER used to remove silica from any surface.

Utilize dust collection tool systems and equipment outlined in Table 1 Maintain all surfaces as free as possible from accumulations of silica. Select methods for cleaning surfaces and floors that minimize the likelihood of silica becoming airborne.

Ensure employees do not leave the workplace wearing any required protective clothing or equipment without HEPA vacuum removal of visible dust

Competent Person Requirements: All subcontractor employers shall identify a competent person to inspect and manage all activities with potential airborne silica exposure. Subcontractors working on projects within the scope of this Program shall appoint a competent person capable of managing and executing the duties described herein. The competent person must have training in the inspection of work areas and equipment and in the determination of safe working conditions. This person shall have a working knowledge of the 1926.1153 standards, shall be capable of identifying airborne silica hazards, shall determine the need for initial and additional exposure monitoring, shall recommend and implement engineering and work practice controls as outlined in Table 1, shall establish levels of PPE, and shall have the authority to take action to eliminate hazards and correct incidences of noncompliance.

IAQ (indoor air quality): During construction indoor air quality may need to be sampled to ensure that adjoin areas have not been contaminated during construction.
