790 Foothill Boulevard, UST Removal
Molly and Matt,
Following up on our phone conversation yesterday, here is our proposed plan of action to remove the two USTs found at
the site.
The project developer, Robbins lReed, will apply for the UST removal permit from the SLOFD. They will hire a properly
licensed contractor (TBD at this time) to remove the tanks. The tank tops will be exposed and the tank interiors triple-
rinsed, with the rinsate collected for proper disposal. The tanks will then be inerted with dry ice prior to lifting from the
hole, and loaded out for scrapping.
Once the tanks are out, Earth Systems will conduct soil sampling. Depending on the size of the tanks, one or two
sampleswillbecollectedfromadepthofabout12inchesbeloweachtank. lfcontaminatedorsuspicious-appearingsoil
is noted beneath the tanks, we propose to excavate that material and stockpile it on-site for profiling to determine
proper disposal, then collect samples from the excavation bottom/sidewalls. Any stockpiled material will be placed on
and covered with visqueen to prevent fugitive odors/dust and erosion by rain.
)fhe soil samples will be analyzed at a State-certified lab (OEC in Santa Maria) for total petroleum hydrocarbons as
gasoline and volatile organic compounds by EPA Method 82608, and fortotal petroleum hydrocarbons as diesel by EPA
Method 8015M. Based on the apparent age of the tanks, we will also analyze for total lead by EPA Method
60108. Once sample results indicate that target contaminants are below applicable screening levels, we will prepare a
summary report for submittal to SLOFD to close out the permit.
Please send the removal permit application and any other required paperwork to me at this email address, and I will
forward it to our client to get the process started. lf you have any questions, please call or email.
Thanks,
Tim Conroy, PG, CEG

ppC requires pre-employment, post-accident, reasonable suspicion and random substance abuse
testing (random testing for CDL license holders only). All employees as a minimum undergo a
NIDA 5 panel drug test or a NIDA 10 panel drug screen (retests) for illegal drugs under the
company's medical surveillance program. All DOT drug screens are performed by SAMHA-
certified laboratories with "Chain of Custody" procedures in place to ensure continuity in
specimen handling for secure drug screening analysis. Only collection facilities that utilize DHHS
specimen collection procedures that meet Federal and State requirements are used.
Random drug screens can be carried out during the course of projects where required by

NOTE - Prescription drugs taken without an authorized prescription for use is considered an illegal
drug. Also, in case of any injury, incident, or emergency, employees will have to undergo
screening for consumption of illegal drugs, alcohol, or prescribed medication. Submission to
substance abuse testing is a condition of employment. Failure or refusal to submit to substance
abuse testing is treated the same as a positive result. All reports will be maintained at the main
office. Any positive results will be referred to PPC Senior Management for further action.

GENERAL PHYSICAL HAZARDS AND PROTECTIVE MEASURES
(See Attachments JHA for more specific detail):
Activity: All general Work Activities (manual laboring, operating equipment, supervising,
inspecting).
potential Hazard: Noise/Hearing, Slips, trips and falls, struck by, pinched, falling debris, shock,
heat stress
Procedures to Mitigate Hazard: Minimum standard site required PPE (Level D ANSI rated hard hat,
eye protection, safety boots, high visibility traffic vest or equivalent clothing, cut/puncture resistant
gloves. Hearing protection (NR rating of 28 or greater "You Need to Raise Your Voice to Hear

BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS
Ticks, Chiggers and LYme diseose
Ticks and chiggers may be present in vegetated areas during the spring, summer and fall
seasons. preventative measures for getting bit include protective clothing that covers the entire
body, tucking pant legs into boots or socks and tucking a long-sleeved shirt into pants; head/hair
protection; and the use of insect repellant containing DEET on all exposed areas and coveralls.
project personnel should check their bodies thoroughly for ticks and should bathe soon after
returning home. Remove any ticks carefully, using a gentle firm, tugging motion with fine
tweezers. Do not kill the tick before it has been removed. Workers should save the tick (place
in zip lock bag for freezing and lab test) and monitor their bites, checking for a rash and any
other symptoms for up to eight weeks after the bite.
Lyme disease is spread primarily through deer tick bites. This tick can be found near wooded
areas, tall grass and brush. Although the disease is rarely fatal, it can because flu-like symptoms,
arthritis, hear arrhythmias, facial palsy, severe headaches and loss of sensation' Some warning
signs include a "bulls-eye" sized rash that may appear days to weeks after the bite and swelling
and pain in the joints; less common warning signs include heart arrhythmia, weakness in the
legs, facial paralysis and numbness. lf Site employees feel they have been bitten they should
notify the HSO immediatelY.
) Snakes
19 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc. Health and Safety Plan
Venomous snakes must be left alone. Snakes will attempt to bite when handled. The pit viper
family and can be easily recognized from the deep pits on either side of their triangle shaped
heads and slit shaped pupils. lf project personnel encounter a potentially dangerous snake - stop
work, remove yourself and other workers from the immediate area and notify the project
supervisor. The supervisor will contact an appropriate site representative to request that the
hazard be removed. Do not re-enter the work area until you have been cleared by the HSO to do
so. Males are especially active during mating season, late fall'
According to the American Red Cross the following first aid steps should be taken when dealing
with any snakebite:
. Wash the bite with soap and water
o lmmobilize the bitten area; keep it lower than the heart.
o Get professional medical help immediately'
o lf the victim is unable to reach medical care within 30 minutes, a bandage wrapped 2 - 4
inches above the bite may help slow the venom. The bandage should not cut off blood
flow from any veins or arteries. Ensure that the bandage is loose enough; a finger should
be able to slip under the bandage.
o A suction device may be placed over the bite to help draw venom out of the wound
without making any cuts. DO NOT use your mouth to try an extract the venom. Suction
instruments are often included in commercial snakebite kits. A commercial snakebite kit
will be maintained at the Project site in PPC field trailer.
o Do not place ice, or any other type of coolant, on the bite.
o No tourniquets shall be used. This cuts blood flow completely and may result in the loss
of the affected limb.
o Do not make any incisions in the wound. Such measures have not been proven useful and
may cause further injurY.
Toxic Plants
poison lvy, poison sumac and poison oak may be present during the spring, summer and fall
seasons. Avoid contact with these plants, if possible. lf a project worker has come in contact, the
affected area should be washed thoroughly with soap and cool water. Care should be taken when
handling clothing or any other items that have come in contact with the poisonous plant. lf an
allergic reaction occurs, a physician's advice should be sought.
Blood borne Pathogens
The following program has been developed in compliance with OSHA regulation 29 CFR
1910.1030 to protect all first aid responders who may come in contact with potentially infectious
materials. With any person conducting first aid, there is a chance of exposure to infectious
materials. ln general, all employees should;
o Avoid contact with any blood, if possible;
o Clean-up any/all blood with a disinfectant;
o Wear the proper personal protective equipment while cleaning blood (i.e. gloves), and
20 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc.Health and Safety Plan
Contact the Project HSO to conduct a medical evaluation if personnel have been exposed
(i.e. blood contacts eyes, mouth or nose).
ln addition to the above requirements, the following guidelines will applyto all project personnel;
o All personnel will wash hands immediately after potential exposure to infectious
materials.
o No eating, drinking, smoking, or applying lip balm will be permitted in the designated
work, decontamination and first aid areas.
o All first aid kits will be equipped with the proper PPE (i.e. gloves, CPR shields and
respirators).
o lf a garment (gloves included) is infiltrated by blood, or other potentially infectious
materials, the garment(s)will be immediately removed, or removed as soon as possible.
r After an exposure incident, a confidential medical evaluation and follow-up will be
conducted and immediately available to the employee. The HSO will coordinate all
medical arrangements.
Radiological Hazords
No radiological hazards are expected during this project.
SITE SECURITY
ppC will provide and maintain security within the project site controlled work zones during all
active working hours from project mobilization though substantial completion.
All onsite personnel and visitors will be required to sign-in and sign-out, at the project support
office, before entering or the work site. PPC will maintain, onsite, all records of site access areas
and security incidents. Visitors will be required to read and conform to this HASP, prior to
accessing controlled work zones. Vehicular traffic will be permitted in the designated parking
area as permitted by the owner. Access to the controlled work and traffic zones is restricted to
authorized vehicles onlY.
SITE LAYOUT

communication when respiratory protection or distance makes communication difficult. Visual
contact must remain between the two buddies; they must remain in close proximity to each other in
order to assist in case of an emergency.
SITE COMM UN ICATIONS PLAN
ln the event of an emergency situation, and two-way radio communication is not available, oral,
visual and semaphore safety signals have been established to protect project personnel. These
signals will be made available to personnel for all phases of operation before going onsite. These
safety signals will ensure quick communication during adverse or emergency situations.
Examples of established signals, and their meanings, are provided below.
WORK AREAS
The project site will be divided, as needed and in conjunction with the owner representative, into
the following three major zones.
Exclusion Zone: The exclusion zone will encompass the areas of concern; as well as any areas
b.rg utilized for the temporary storage of salvaged materials and related piping that could be
contaminated with hazardous materials. The minimum level of protection in the exclusion zone
will be a modified Level D. Level c PPE will be available onsite, in the event an upgrade of
protection is needed (as determined by exposure above established regulatory limits).
Contamination Reduction Zone (CRZI: A CRZ will be created in cases where contaminated
materials are encountered. The CRZ is the transitional area between the identified contaminated
and clean areas. The CRZ will be provided for the transfer of equipment and materials to and
from the exclusion zone; the decontamination of personnel and equipment existing in the
exclusion zone; and the physical segregation of the clean and contaminated work areas. The CRZ

The following table describes the minimum levels of protection that are anticipated for this
project.
The minimum levels of protection are to be considered preliminary and may change based upon
exposure assessments as work progresses. No change to the specified level of protection will be
made without the approval of the HSO.
DESCRIPTION OF USE OF PROTECTION LEVELS
Respiratory and skin contact PPE will be used when project activities involve known, or
suspected, contamination; when vapors, gases or particulates may be generated by site activities;
or when direct contact with skin may occur. Respirators protect the lungs, gastrointestinal tract
and eyes against airborne toxicants. Chemical resistant clothing protects skin from contact with
harmful and absorbable chemicals.
Level D: Protection will be used when no airborne contaminant exposure is likely and job
functions do not require the use of respiratory equipment or chemical resistive clothing. The
equipment for this level of protection is described above and is the minimum for the project'
Level D Modified: Protection will be modified when additional contact hazards have been
identified such as splash hazards, and dust. See the description above.

RESPI RATORY PROTECTION
project personnel will be required, when necessary, to use respiratory protection to reduce their
exposure to airborne hazardous substances. The standard requirements that determine the
selection and use of respirators depend on the hazards present. Respirators will also be made
available for emergencies.
Only respirators that are approved by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) and
the National lnstitute for Occupation Safety and Health (NIOSH) are allowed. Use must follow the
regulatory requirements set forth by OSHA 29 CFR 19L0.L34 and OSHA 29 CFR L926.1O3'
Medical Clearonce & Fit Testing
All personnel, which are assigned to tasks where a respirator is needed, must have prior medical
clearance. Medical evaluations and fit testing are provided by PPC. Fit test records will be filed
and maintained onsite, by the HSO. Certification of medical assessment may be made available
upon request. Medical limitations and restrictions will be strictly enforced. No employee will be
permitted to use a respirator if he/she has any facial hair that may affect the seal of their
respirator.
Training
All personnel who are required to wear a respirator have received training on the use,
maintenance, proper care and inspection of their respirators. Attendance at all training has been
and will be documented. Attendance records will be maintained onsite by the HSo and will be
available for inspection upon request.
lnspection
All respirators to be used at the jobsite will be inspected for damage by the employee, prior to
use. After they are trained, every employee will be responsible for inspection of their own
respirator. The following elements will be inspected;
o Tightness of the connections
o Face piece
o Headbands
o lnhalation valve
o Cartridge or filter fittings
25lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc.Health and Safety Plan
)
o Pliability of the rubber or elastic parts
o Signs of deterioration
Any malformation, distortion, missing parts, cracks, etc. in the respirator will cause the
equipment to be deemed useless until a qualified technician can properly repair the respirator.
lf necessary, a new respirator will be issued.
Respirator Type
The type of respirator, and who is required to wear them, will be identified on a task specific level
by the HSO, in consultation with the Director EH&S, based on the type of work that will be
performed and the potential for exposure to airborne contaminants.
Standard Procedure for Use
All personnel will adhere to the following standard operating procedure for respirator use;
o Carefully inspect the respirator prior to entering potentially contaminated work areas
o Conduct positive and negative pressure leak tests each time the respirator is to be used
o Do not remove the respirator in contaminated work areas
o wear a respirator with straps while inside disposable garments
Cleaning and disinfecting
Any reusable respirator must be cleaned after each use. The steps required to clean a respirator
after use are;
o Remove the cartridge and headbands
o Disassemble all respirator parts
r Wash all parts, with the exception of the cartridge and headband, in a cleaner-disinfectant
solution or use soaP and hot water
o Rinse all parts completely in clean, warm water
o Air dry in a clean, sanitary area
o Re-assemble the resPirator
o Store the cleaned respirator in a sealed bag.
Storage
Respirators will be stored in a sealed bag to protect against dust, sunlight, extreme temperature,
moisture and abrasives. Respirators should be stored so that the face piece and exhalation valve
will rest in a normal position and function will not be impaired by the elastic setting in an
abnormal position. The respirator should not be hung to store or air dried by its straps.

before leaving the exclusion zone or contamination reduction zone.
o At the end of each day, decontaminate or dispose of all PPE used onsite. The HSO is
responsible for ensuring decontamination before PPE reuse.
o The HSO will individually assign all respirator use. Respirators will not be interchanged
between workers. Any PPC personnel, subcontractor and/or service personnel unable to
use a negative pressure respirator as a result of facial hair will not enter or work in an
area requiring Protection.
o All project personnel will have vision or corrected vision to at least 2O/4O in one eye.
r Onsite personnel that are found to be disregarding any provision of this HASP will be
barred, at the request of the HSO, from this Project.
o Do not reuse contaminated disposable outerwear such as coveralls, gloves and boots.
Contaminated disposable outerwear will be removed upon leaving the exclusion zone and
placed inside disposable containers that are provided for this sole purpose. The
containers will be stored at the Project site, at the designated staging area, and PPC will
be responsible for the proper disposal of these materials at the completion of the Project.
o When working, immediately replace protective coveralls that have become torn or badly
soiled.
o There will be NO eating, drinking, smoking, chewing gum or tobacco in the exclusion zone
or contamination reduction zone.
o All personnel must thoroughly wash their hands, face and forearms prior to using the
facilities, eating, drinking and smoking.

28 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc Health and Safety Plan
All personnel who are on medication with a safety-sensitive affect will report it to the HSO, prior
to work start-up, The HSO will require a letter from the individual's personal physician stating
what limitations, if any; the medication may impose on the individual.
EXCAVATION SAFETY
ppC maintains strict procedure for soil excavations. The safety of all employees during these
operations depends on the soil structure and stability, contamination level, weather conditions,
buried utilities and structures and superimposed loads. Entry into an excavation will be strictly
controlled and only allowed for authorized, pre-designated personnel.
lf excavating within a wet, sandy area, or if the area has been backfilled at any time, it is likely to
be very unstable. All personnel working in these conditions must be cautious and provide extra
sloping, if possible. A change in weather conditions, such has heavy rain, can loosen the soil and
increase the risk of a collapse. lf the area of excavation is prone to collapse precautions, such as
covering the area, should be taken. Heavy equipment or materials should be kept as far away as
possible from the excavation area because they can also increase the risk of collapse' All
excavated soilshould be removed from the rim of the area and contained if possible.
HIDDEN PRECAUTIONS
ln order to eliminate the impact on buried pipelines or cables, before any excavation begins PPC
personnel will notify all utility companies to locate their lines. Non-public underground lines will
be located by a third party. lf such a hazard exists, the lines will be carefully marked prior to the
start of the excavation activities.
When deeper than five feet, to prevent collapsing soil the excavation must be sloped, shored or
somehow contained before any personnel can enter. Ladders will be provided, for employees
who are working in depths of more than four feet and such that no more than 25-feet has to be
traveled to reach an exit. Ladders will not be removed until all employees have exited the
excavation.
All excavations will be inspected at least daily for collapse and other hazards. All activity will cease
if the ppC designated Competent Person or the HSO identify a hazardous condition.
EXTERIOR PRECAUTIONS
For the protection of all employees, PPC requires that all exterior structures (sidewalks, bridges,
etc.) be protected and clear of excavated materials. Sidewalks will be shored to carry a load of at
least j.25 pounds/sf. Planks, which are being used for temporary walkways, will be laid parallel
29 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc.Health and Safety Plan
to the length of the walkway and will be fastened together. Fences or other barricades will be
erected to warn employees and vehicle traffic of excavation edges.
LOCKOUT/TAGOUT
Energized equipment will be locked out. This procedure ensures the health and safety of all
personnel by deactivating any movable, electrical or pressurized equipment. This policy applies
to all machinery or equipment that can be moved either by the use of electrical power, hydraulic
power, compressed air, steam or energy stored in springs/suspension devices. Damaged tags will
be placed on all movable equipment and machinery.
Only project personnel and supervisors are authorized to lockout machinery/equipment. Every
employee is responsible for his/her own equipment and nobody else is permitted to remove a
lock or tag except the authorized employee. Any violation of this policy is cause for strict
disciplinary action.
Lockout Procedures
Lockout devices are used to prevent the accidental re-energizing of equipment.
De-enereizine Ci rcuits and Equipment: Disconnect the circuits and equipment, to be worked on,
from all electrical sources and release stored energy that could accidentally re-energize
equipment.
Aoolication of ks and Taes: On ly authorized personnel are allowed to place a lock and tag on
each disconnecting - means used to de-energize the circuits or equipment before the work
begins. A lock prevents unauthorized personnel from re-energizing the equipment or circuits. A
tag prohibits unauthorized operation of the disconnecting device.
Verification of De-energized Conclition of Circuits/Equipment: Prior to work on equipment, PPC
requires that a "qualified" employee verify that the equipment is de-energized and cannot be
restarted.
Re-energizing Circuits and Equipment: Before circuits or equipment are re-energized, the
following steps must be taken in the following order:
o A "qualified" employee conducts tests and verified that all tools and devices have been
removed.
r All exposed employees are warned to stay clear of the circuits and equipment.
o Authorized personnel will remove their own locks and tags.
o The HSO will conduct a visual inspection of the area to be sure all employees are clear of
the circuits and equiPment.

COMMUNICATION METHODS AND SIGNALS
Evacuation
43 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc. Health and Safety Plan
Emergency escape routes will be designated by the HSO for use in situations where rapid egress
from the exclusion zone is required. Project personnelwill be notified of the specific evacuation
routes and re-assembly areas during the daily toolbox EH&s meetings. The re-assembly area will
be determined based on current wind conditions and indicated on a site map. The map will be
posted in an area readily accessible to workers in the different project areas.
An emergency evacuation alarm (air or vehicle horn) will be kept onsite at all times. The audible
evacuation signal will be short bursts on the horn (one second burst followed by one second
interval) and will be repeated until the site is evacuated. After the work area is cleared, Project
personnel will meet at an upwind re-assembly facility area that the HSo will designate. The
emergency alarm will be sounded in the event of any serious problems or emergency (fire,
medical) that requires the assistance of personnel or the evacuation of the construction team. ln
situations where an onsite emergency results in evacuation, personnel will not be permitted to
re-enter until;
o The conditions resulting in the emergency have been corrected;
o The hazards have been reassessed;
o The HASP has been reviewed, and
o Project personnel have been briefed on any change in the HASP
Emergency Services and Vehicle Access
The emergency telephone numbers, listed in the Contact lnformation section of this HASP, will
be posted at each project site telephone. Directions to the hospital will also be posted at this
location.
ln the event that emergency service vehicles need access to a location that is blocked by onsite
operations, those operations (equipment, materials, etc.) will be immediately moved to allow
vehicle access. The emergency crews will be quickly briefed as to the site conditions and hazards
by the HSO. All vehicles and personnel will be decontaminated prior to leaving the site.
WEATHER
ln the event of severe weather (heavy rain, lightning, high winds, etc.), the HSO will monitor the
appropriate public notification system and notify project personnel of any alerts. As the storm
approaches, all work will stop, loose objects will be secured and site personnel will take shelter
at a location pre-arranged by the HSO. After the severe weather has passed, and prior to work
startup, the HSO will inspect the site for hazards.
Landslides- During very heavy downpours, any work being conducted in valleys, near unstable
vertical surfaces, or excavations will stop. Personnel will move away from the hazard area and
report to the HSO. Work will not commence until a competent person has inspected the area'
44 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc Health and Safety Plan
Lightning - Any visual sighting of lightning will result in stopping outside work activities. Work
will not commence until 30 minutes after the last observed strike.
High Winds- Winds higher than 25 mph will cause all exterior hoisting and lifting to cease. Crane
operators have the authority to stop lifts at lower wind speeds based on their discretion.
project Tornado Shetter - To be determined with initial hazard exposure assessments and site
mobilization. All reasonable efforts should be made to access this location in the event of a
tornado. Recognizing imminent tornado signs include seeing an unusually dark sky, possibly with
some green or yellow clouds. You may hear a roaring or rumbling sound like a train, or a whistling
sound like a jet. Large hail may also be falling. You may be able to see funnels, or they may be
hidden by rain or hail.
Listen to the radio for tornado warnings during bad thunderstorms. lf a tornado warning is issued,
don,t panic. lnstead, listen and look. Quickly but calmly follow directions for getting to shelter. Take
cover. lndoors you should go down into the basement and crouch down under the stairs, away from
windows. Do not take an elevator. lf you can't get to a basement, go into a closet or bathroom and
pull a mattress over you or sit underneath a sturdy piece of furniture on the ground floor near the
center of the building. pull your knees up under you and protect your head with your hands. A bad
place to be in a tornado is in a building with a regular freestanding roof such as a gymnasium, arena,
auditorium, church or shopping mall. lf you are caught in such a building, take cover under something
sturdy. More than half of tornado deaths occur in mobile homes. lf a tornado threatens, get out
and go to a building with a good foundation, or lay down in a ditch away from vehicles and other
objects.
lf driving, get to a shelter, lie down in a ditch or seek cover up under the girders of an overpass
or bridge. Stay as close to the ground as you can. Protect your head and duck flying debris. Stay
away from metal and electrical equipment because lightning accompanies tornadoes.
lf there is time before the tornado strikes, secure objects such as garbage cans and lawn furniture
which can injure people. While most tornado damage is a result of the violent winds, most
injuries and deaths actually result from flying debris.
EARTHQUAKE
ln event of an earthquake, if you are outside, stay outside, and stay away from buildings utility
wires, sinkholes, and fuel and gas lines. Once in the open, get down low (to avoid being knocked
down by strong shaking) and stay there until the shaking stops.
The area near the exterior walls of a building is the most dangerous place to be. Windows, facades
and architectural details are often the first parts of the building to collapse. Also, shaking can be so
strong that you will not be able to move far without falling down, and objects may fall or be thrown
at you. Stay away from this danger zone--stay inside if you are inside and outside if you are outside.

o Warn other persons and/or vehicles of the hazard. Personnel will act to prevent any
unsuspecting persons from coming in contact with the spilled materials by alerting nearby
people and by obtaining assistance of other personnel who are familiar with spill control
and clean up training.
. Stop the spill at the source, if possible. Without taking unnecessary risks, personnel will
attempt to stop the spill at the source. This may involve activities such as up-righting a
drum, closing a valve or temporarily sealing a hole with a plug. PPC personnel will not
expend more than a brief effort, prior to notifying the HSO.
o Notify the HSO. Using available onsite communication systems, or other rapid
communication procedures, the HSO will be notified of the spill, including information on
the material spilled, quality, personnel injuries and immediate life-threatening hazards.
The HSO will notify the PPC representative and emergency contacts immediately (See
EmergencY Contact List).
NOTE: lf a flammable liquid is involved in the spill, remove all ignition sources and monitor for explosive
conditions with an LEL meter during cleanup. Also, remove any surrounding materials that might
chemically react with the spill materials.

Spill Containment
The HSO will make a rapid assessment of any spill at the site; apply the appropriate EH&S
considerations to the use of PPE in the spill release zone; and direct primary containment
measures. Depending on the nature of the spill, primary containment measures may include, but
are not limited to;
o Constructing a temporary containment berm to control the horizontal flow of the spill
using absorbent pads, booms, sandbags, sand and/or other inert materials
o placing drums under the leak to collect the spilling material before it flows onto the
ground
o Digging a sump, installing a polyethylene liner and diverting the spilled material to the
sump
o Transferring the material from its original container to another container
Spills that occur between the project site and the offsite disposal facility will be initially contained
by the driver using on-board spill response equipment.
SpillCleanup
The HSO and Project Manager will develop an incident-specific spill clean-up plan for Priority L
spills that will take into consideration the associated hazards, quantity of spilled material,
disposal methods and costs. The incident specific spill clean-up plan will be reviewed for
acceptance by the ppC representative and/or other Federal, State or Local oversight personnel.
Once approved, the spill clean-up plan will be implemented under the direct supervision of the
Site Superintendent.
Generally, all visually detectable spills, leaks or releases of fuel oil will be collected and cleaned
up using absorbent pads, booms, sandbags, sand and/or other inert materials as practicable using
the response procedures outline below. Emergency spill kits will be kept in each vehicle.

Post-spill lnspection
The HSO, project Manager and pPC representative willjointly inspect the spill site to determine
that the spill has been cleaned up to the satisfaction of all involved parties.
Reporting
ln the event of a spill incident, the HSO will immediately contact the Corporate EH&S Director,
project Manage and PPC Representative; initiate the emergency procedure steps that are
provided in this HASP, and Complete a Spill Report From for submittal to the Project Manage and
the PPC project RePresentative.
ppC will be responsible for reporting any Priority 1 spills immediately following the incident. A
written report will be submitted within seven days after the telephone call reporting the incident.
The written report will include the item spilled, quantity, identification and manifest numbers,
whether the amount spilled is EPA/state/District reportable, exact location of occurrence,
containment procedures used, anticipated clean-up and disposal procedures and disposal of spill
residue.
HEAT STRESS MONITORING
The HSO willvisually monitor project personnel for signs of heat overexposure. The HSO will be
responsible for implementing the following program when the ambient air temperature exceeds
85"F (heat stress monitoring).
Symptoms
Weakness, dizziness, fainting, nausea, headaches, cool and clammy skin, profuse sweating,
slurred speech, weak pulse and dilated pupils.
Procedure
49 lPage
Cap Xl Foothill, LLCPacific Petroleum California, lnc. Health and Safety Plan
Personnel who wear PPE allow their body heat to be accumulated with and elevation of the body
temperature. Heat, heat exhaustion and heat stroke can be experienced which, if not remedied,
can threaten health and life. A current edition of the American Red Cross Standard First Aid book
or equivalent will be maintained onsite at all times so that the HSO and all Project personnel will
be able to recognize the symptoms of heat emergency and be capable of controlling them.
When PPE is worn (especially levels B and C) the suggested guidelines for ambient temperature
and maximum wear time per excursion are as follows:
rature Wear Ti n Min
15
30
60
90
L20
180
One method for measuringthe effectiveness of employees' rest-recovery regime is by monitoring
their heart as follows:
o During a 3-minute period, count the pulse rate for the last 30 seconds of the first minute,
the last 30 seconds of the second minute and the last 30 seconds of the third minute.
o Double that count.
o lf the recovery rate during the last 30 seconds of the first minute is at LL0 beats per minute
or less and the deceleration between the first, second and third minute is at least 10
beats/minute, the work recovery regime is acceptable. lf the employee's rate is above the
specified, longer rest period is required, and accompanied by and increased intake of fluids.
