It is the responsibility of the contractor to enforce the below requirements as well as all current revisions of the above referenced standards. Failure to enforce safety requirements on the depot can result in immediate stop works, safety stand down orders and even complete termination of the contract.

Important Phone Numbers:

F. ON‐SITE PROCEDURE & COMPLIANCE:

S.10.0 THE CONTRACTOR IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE AND LIABLE FOR JOB‐ SITE SAFETY:

2. The Contractor remains solely responsible and liable for job‐site safety at all times during the term of the contract. No outside personnel (other than ET, COR, TYAD Safety, or other government appointed contract personnel) are allowed onto the job site at any time during contract without prior permissions and/or escort by the ET, COR or KO.

3. Tobyhanna Army depot has restrictions on the use of fossil fuels in all buildings. The contractor must follow the TYAD fossil fuel memorandum of understanding requirements pertaining to such uses as noted below:

TYAD has restrictions on the use of fossil fuels in all buildings. When it is determined that electric or other alternatively‐fueled vehicles are insufficient or unavailable for movement of material within the buildings on the installation, fossil‐fueled vehicles can be used only when all alternatives of accepted electric material movement equipment have been considered, and the last option is use of a fossil fuel vehicle or project failure. This includes any situations where safety of employees and equipment may be jeopardized. Convenience will never be an acceptable justification to utilize fossil‐fueled vehicles. The Government Designated Representative (GDR) will notify the appropriate supervisor(s) or leader(s) in the area where the need to utilize a fossil fuel vehicle is required. The supervisor / leader will take the necessary steps to notify the employees in the work area of the option to leave the area during the material movement process. The GDR and Contractor will also document all actions the Contractor took to utilize electric or other alternatively‐fueled vehicles. The documentation will specifically state why electric or alternatively‐fueled vehicles are insufficient.

Employees carry small red cards that can be thrown down when employee sees an action they consider unsafe. Work ceases until TYAD management can decide if it is safe or not. Contractors are required to comply with this program. If a TYAD employee presents the red card to the contractor, the contractor must stop working until the COR and Safety Office can determine if there is a safety hazard or not.

6. All contractor personnel, to include subcontractors, vendors, suppliers, or visitors, when performing any type of work activity, or gaining access through an occupied area or shop ‐ must have all applicable PPE that is required for the area to include, but not limited to, hardhats, safety glasses, hearing protection, and respirator protection.
