Contractor shall be required to provide sound recommendations for hazard control. The surveys shall serve as a baseline of workplace conditions or provide an update for a previously conducted survey. The purpose of a survey is to document a worker’s history of exposures for both civilian and military employees.

Sehnert, Zachery L CIV NG NEARNG (USA) Where we at on this Jarod?
Epp, Jarod W CIV NG NEARNG (USA) According to the gov't a company with no experience is permitted to be hired. So, we are not reviewing resumes, the fail-safe is the CIH has to sign/approve the report. Meaning he is taking the responsibility for the report and the inspection. Similar to Architecture and Engineering, they sign the designs proving everything is correct with their license on the line.

6.1.7.3 To determine occupational exposure levels for Federal employees, conduct air breathing zone sampling to represent full-shift sampling when determining compliance with an 8-hour TWA. Full-shift sampling is defined as a minimum of the total time of the work shift less one hour. Every effort should be made to sample the segments of the work shift when the highest exposure is anticipated. Ensure that sufficient air sampling volume is achieved so that the laboratory limit of detection is less than the hazard occupational exposure limit (OEL). The exposure results shall be used to determine the work shift TWA or STEL for each targeted hazard. If the sample results exceed the applicable hazard OEL (use ACGIH TLV when more conservative than OSHA PEL) contact the RIHS office immediately via the office mailbox at ng.ga.gaarng.mbx.rihse@army.mil If the work shift is greater than 8 hours, adjust the OEL accordingly.

Perform noise dosimetry on as many employees as possible to ensure the Army Safety and OSHA standards are met (listed on DD Form 2214). When noise dosimetry is performed on Federal employees, personnel shall be separated into similar exposure groups (SEGs) based on the process(es) performed (vehicle maintenance, sanding/grinding, spray painting, etc.) and/or position description/job duties. Noise dosimetry shall be conducted for a minimum of 75% of the worker’s normally scheduled workday. The collected data will be used to obtain and provide results as an 8-hour TWA.

Yes, CIH signature verbiage should be included.
6.3.1.3 Do not collect or include social security numbers or birth dates on any documents or reports. The full name of the employee, facility name, and job title is sufficient to identify the employees and their exposure records will be updated with additional information by the occupational health nurse.
6.3.1.4 One employee notification letter for each employee who wore a noise dosimeter or air sampling pump/passive badge. The notification letter will provide the sample results as an 8-hour TWA or STEL. Calculate the UTL if there are at least six noise dosimetry or air sampling results for a SEG. (See Exhibits 6 and 7 for an example of the form and to calculate the noise RAC. The information on the form must be adapted depending on the results.)

DERIVING RISK ASSESSMENT CODES (RACs) FOR CHRONIC HAZARDS Department of Defense Instruction 6055.01, Appendix to Enclosure 3
Department of Defense Occupational Safety and Health Program, 14 October 2014
1. DETERMINE THE HEALTH HAZARD SEVERITY CODE (HHSC). Use the following procedures to assess exposure and medical effects points and determine the health hazard severity category (HHSC). The HHSC reflects the magnitude of exposure to a single physical, chemical, or biological agent and the effects of chronic exposure.
a. Determine Exposure Points.
AER Possible?
Exposure Condition
95th percentile <10% of OEL
95th percentile between 10% of OEL and 50% of OEL
95th percentile between 50% of OEL and
OEL
95th percentile
>OEL
No 0 3 5 7 Yes 1 – 2 4 6 9
AER = Alternate exposure route, such as skin absorption, ingestion.
OEL = Occupational Exposure Limit, such as OSHA PEL or ACGIH® TLV®.
b. Determine Medical Effects Points.
Condition Points No medical effect, such as nuisance noise and nuisance odor 0 Temporary reversible illness requiring supportive treatment, such as eye irritation and sore throat 1 - 2
Temporary reversible illness with a variable but limited period of disability, such as metal fume fever 3 - 4
Permanent, non-severe illness or loss of capacity, such as permanent hearing loss 5 - 6
Permanent, severe, disabling, irreversible illness, such as asbestosis, lung cancer, or death 7 - 8
c. Determine the HHSC by totaling the points assessed.
Total Points (sum of Exposure Points [1a] and Medical Effects Points [1b]) HHSC
13 – 17 I
9 – 12 II
5 – 8 III
0 – 4 IV
2. DETERMINE THE EFFECT PROBABILITY CATEGORY (EPC). Use the following procedures to assess exposure frequency and duration to determine the effect probability category (EPC). The EPC is a function of the duration and frequency of exposure and the number of exposed personnel.
a. Determine Duration and Frequency of Exposure Points. Add exposure duration points and exposure frequency points, divide total by 2, then round UP.

Exposure Duration >8 hours/d ay
6-8 hours/day

DERIVING RACs FOR SAFETY HAZARDS
1. Use the matrix and descriptive definitions below as a model to determine the RAC for safety hazards:
a. Determine Accident Probability.
b. Determine Hazard Severity.
Code Description A Likely to occur immediately B Probably will occur in time C Possible to occur in time D Unlikely to occur
Code Description I Death, permanent total disability or loss of facility or asset
II Permanent partial disability, temporary total disability in excess of 3 months or major property damage
III Lost-workday injury or compensable injury or minor property damage
IV Minimal threat to personnel or property, first-aid, minor supportive medical treatment, but still a violation of a standard
2. Determine the RAC for health hazards by using the following matrix to measure safety severity and mishap probability factors.

Exhibit 7 Determining the Noise Risk Assessment Code (RAC)
To determine the Noise Risk Assessment Code (RAC).
1. Determine the number of personnel in a similar exposure group (SEG).
Example: 20 personnel at the aviation facility wear noise dosimeters. 10 are aircraft mechanics, 5 are ground support personnel, and 5 are machinists. There are three SEGs/OEGs, they are ‘aircraft mechanics’, ‘ground support’, and ‘machinists.
2. Calculate the Upper Tolerance Limit (UTL) for groups of 6 or more in a SEG/OEG.
Example: The 10 aircraft mechanic results are used to calculate a UTL of 91 dBA. The ground support and machinist personnel have individual noise TWA8s because there are not at least 6 in their SEG/OEG.
3. Compare each to the simplified noise RAC table.
Results for individual or group UTL # of people in SEG/OEL
< 10 10 or more < 82 dBA 4 3 82 dBA and over 3 2
Example: The aircraft mechanics UTL of 91 dBA results in a noise RAC 2 (10 or more people + 82 dBA or greater). Two sample results for the machinists were 78 TWA8 dBA and 83 TWA8 dBA. The 78 TWA8 dBA results in a noise RAC 4 and the 83 TWA8 dBA results in a noise RAC 3 using the simplified noise RAC table.
