2. At a minimum of 2 working days prior to commencing work, the Contractor will be required to meet with the NPTU Work Control Officer (WCO). This meeting is to ensure that NPTU fully understands the scope of intended work, the work is properly scheduled in the Site's formal Plan of the Day, and that all de-conflictions are properly made on behalf of the Contractor, therefore allowing work to occur.

3. Prior to commencing work, the Contractor will meet with the WCO and together they will verify that the contractor and NPTU have completed all preparatory documentation and that the work is planned properly. The WCO will then authorize the work via an Operations Department Work Authorization Form (ODWAF).

4. Before work is initiated each day, the contractor shall inform the WCO or other designated NPTU representative as to which Contractor personnel are on site and what work is planned for the day. Therefore, before commencing work each day, whether inside or outside of the perimeter fence, all Contractor personnel (including sub-contractor personnel) shall report to the NPTU WCO. Exceptions to this requirement will only be permitted if the day's work was specifically reviewed by the WCO the day before. In these cases, the Contractor shall report daily to the NPTU WCO at a convenient time and prior to beginning any new work that was not specifically reviewed on the prior day. However, if the work is defined as High Risk per section E. Ill, the Contractor must meet with the NPTU WCO or his alternate each day prior to the commencement of work.

5. NPTU SUPPORT: Any evolution deemed to require support from NPTU will have a minimum 2 working day notification prior to its initiation. This requirement may be longer pending on the complexity of the request. It is vital for the Contractor to identify all evolutions requiring NPTU support during the Pre-Execution Meeting.

6. ENERGY ISOLATIONS: Any and all evolutions requiring the use of energy isolation shall have a minimum 2 working day notification and commencement of their approval process prior to their initiation. This requirement may be longer pending on the complexity of the request. It is vital for the Contractor to identify all evolutions requiring energy isolations during the Pre-Execution Meeting. Additionally all Energy Isolations must be approved by the WCO prior to the commencement of work.

Requirements for Energy Isolation vary depending on system and location at NPTU.

7. EQUIPMENT: The Contractor will be permitted to operate equipment at the NPTU site only when the equipment has been isolated such that its operation can not in any way impact the facility, system or NPTU employees and the system has been turned over to the vendor for repair, maintenance, or reconstruction. Should situations occur where such isolation can not occur then the following will apply:

a. The Contractor will verify that operation of the equipment will have no impact on the site's operation or that the impact is acceptable with the respective NPTU area manager.

b. The equipment will be operated for the Contractor by a qualified NPTU employee or the Contractor will be permitted to operate the equipment under the direct observation of a qualified NPTU em~loyM.
