About this file
This document is a Known Hazards General List for Camp Darby/Darby Military Community in Italy, effective as of January 2016.
The document identifies and catalogs occupational health and safety hazards across five operational areas of the military installation: Camp Darby, Depot, Ammo, and LTA. Common hazards across all areas include vehicular traffic (private cars, forklifts, shuttle buses, military transports, refueling tanks, and trash collection vehicles) with associated risks of collision, crushing, and interference with operations; high pedestrian traffic with risk of pedestrian strikes; non-European compliant signage and bilingual communication gaps creating misinterpretation risks; potential asbestos exposure in aged pipelines, coverings, and gaskets; biological hazards from insects and animal nests in green areas; and falling pine cones from trees in parking areas and roadways. Area-specific hazards include the Camp Darby area's irregular sidewalk pavement near Building 204 and poor lighting near the Water Treatment Plant (Buildings 402 & 405); the Depot area's proximity to Fire Department emergency response vehicles near Building 5164 and toxic pesticide materials at Building 5143; the Ammo area's temporary construction sites with trenches, gas tank storage, explosive and flammable material storage, and presence of wild animals such as deer and wild pigs; and the LTA area's general vehicular and pedestrian traffic hazards. The document provides emergency contact procedures for medical incidents (911 or 050/547114), fire emergencies (117 or 050-547117), and references the Protection & Prevention Office (633-7841 or 050-547841) for additional safety clarifications and access to detailed risk assessment documents.

CAMP DARBY/DARBY MILITARY COMMUNITY
KNOWN HAZARDS GENERAL LIST
In case of work conditions requiring more information/clarifications, call the Protection & Prevention Office, (Safety Office) at the following extension: 633-7841 or 050-547841.
The document is updated at January 2016
Area Camp Darby:

9. Potential presence of asbestos containing materials on old pipelines, coverings, gaskets; (refer to specific evaluation document available at Environmental Office), Risks: asbestos accidental exposure
10. Green area surrounded facilities may hide insects or other animals’ nests, Risks: biological
11. Trees surrounded parking places and/or along cross ways
Risks: exposure to pine cones falling
12. 4 Way stop crossroad (not European traffic code compliant), Risks: yield misinterpretation - collision
