About this file

This is a Confined Space Entry Permit form used by the VA's Office of Inspector General (VANIHCS) to authorize and document safe entry into confined spaces.

The permit establishes comprehensive safety requirements and monitoring procedures before personnel may enter a confined space. It captures essential administrative information including the permit date, start and end times, issuer identification, jobsite location, entry purpose, supervising crew details, and contact information. The form requires completion of multiple safety prerequisites organized into two columns, including lockout/tagout procedures, ventilation, secured area posting, lighting, hotwork permits, fire extinguishers, supplied air respirators, protective clothing, full body harnesses with D-rings, emergency retrieval equipment, and lifelines. Air monitoring requirements mandate initial testing and periodic monitoring (at least every 2 hours) of oxygen levels (19.5%-23.5%), LEL/LFL (under 10%), hydrogen sulfide (less than 10 ppm), and carbon monoxide (less than 35 ppm), with documentation of the air tester name, ID, instrument type, model, and serial number. The permit requires identification of all attendants (required for all confined space work except alternate entry) and authorized entrants with their ID numbers. An Entry Supervisor must authorize the permit by signing confirmation that all conditions are satisfied. The form includes an entry log tracking entrant names and entry/exit times, emergency contact phone numbers for ambulance, fire, safety, and rescue team, and a permit cancellation section documenting the reason for cancellation (time expired, work completed, or unexpected circumstances) with confirmation that all entrants have safely exited and the space is secured. A contractor debrief section requires documentation of post-entry debriefing with contractor representatives.
