About this file

Exhibit 3 is a contractor safety reference document developed by Orange County Public Works that identifies high-risk work categories and associated safety requirements for the OC Loop Carbon Creek Channel Segment D Bikeway Gap Closure project. The exhibit categorizes twelve distinct high-risk activities including abatement, chemical handling, confined space entry, demolition, earthmoving, energized systems work, material handling with assisted equipment, medical services, outdoor work, power tools, welding/torch cutting, and working at heights. For each category, the document specifies potential hazards (such as asbestos exposure, electrical shock, entanglement, falls, and engulfment) and mandates corresponding safety programs and requirements that contractors must implement and maintain throughout project execution. Contractors bidding on this $12.7 million federally funded bikeway construction project must demonstrate compliance with all applicable safety protocols identified in this exhibit as part of their Contractor Safety Activity Checklist submission.

The safety requirements outlined in Exhibit 3 are mandatory compliance elements for all contractors and subcontractors working on this FHWA and Caltrans-funded project. Contractors must establish and maintain programs such as Respiratory Protection, Personal Protective Equipment, Confined Space Entry Permits, Fall Protection Plans, Hearing Conservation, Bloodborne Pathogens, Workplace Violence Prevention, and Hazardous Communication programs depending on which high-risk categories apply to their specific work scope. Competent persons, certifications, lift plans, and permits are required for activities involving heights, material handling, earthmoving, and energized systems, with documentation subject to county review and approval as part of the overall safety compliance verification process.
