About this file
This is an Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Contractor Requirements document prepared by Collier County, Florida for all construction projects undertaken by Collier County Construction Management and Administration (CMA). The document establishes mandatory compliance standards for contractors engaged in county construction activities. Contractors must adhere to all applicable federal, state, and local regulations including those established by OSHA, DOT, EPA, DHS, ANSI, FDEP, and NFPA, as well as Collier County's own EHS Standard Operating Procedures and Job Safety Analysis protocols. Key requirements include wearing vendor identification badges on county property, obtaining powered industrial vehicle certifications, implementing daily incident and accident reporting, conducting weekly internal safety inspections, maintaining personal fall protection systems for work above six feet, and following electrical safety and lockout/tagout procedures. Site-specific safety plans are mandatory and must address general site safety, security, hurricane preparedness, pandemic safety, respirable crystalline silica exposure, confined space entry, asbestos management, mold remediation, and environmental protection as applicable to project scope.
Additional critical requirements address work zone safety and public protection standards. When conducting work within rights-of-way such as roads, sidewalks, and bike paths, contractors must comply with all Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) requirements, including proper hi-visibility safety garment standards (ANSI/ISEA 107-2010 Class 2 or 3), work zone signage, traffic control plans, and flagging personnel deployment. Contractors are responsible for safeguarding construction sites and preventing unauthorized public access through appropriate protective barriers, signage, and fencing for damaged sidewalks, excavations, and other identified hazards. Risk management must be integrated into all pre-activity, activity, and post-activity construction meetings. All work must meet or exceed Collier County Vertical Construction Standards and Collier County IT Construction Standards unless specifically exempted in writing by the Facilities Management Division Director and Risk Management Director.
