a. The Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) format must be in accordance with EM 385-1-1. Submit the AHA for review at least 15 calendar days prior to the start of each phase. Format subsequent AHAs as amendments to the APP. The analysis must be used during daily inspections to ensure the implementation and effectiveness of the activity's safety and health controls. Develop an AHA for every operation involving a type of work presenting hazards not experienced in previous project operations or where a new work crew or subcontractor is to perform work. The analysis must identify and evaluate hazards and outline the proposed methods and techniques for the safe completion of each phase of work. At a minimum, define activity being performed, sequence of work, specific safety and health hazards anticipated, control measures (to include personal protective equipment) to eliminate or reduce each hazard to acceptable levels, equipment to be used, inspection requirements, training requirements for all involved, and the Competent and Qualified persons in charge of that phase of work. For work with fall hazards, include fall hazards associated with scaffold erection and removal, identify the appropriate fall arrest systems. For work with materials handling equipment, address safeguarding measures related to materials handling equipment. For work requiring excavations, include requirements for safeguarding excavations. For work with commissioning, address safeguarding measures related to commissioning.
b. An activity requiring an AHA must not proceed until the AHA has been accepted by the Contracting Officer and a meeting has been conducted by the Contractor to discuss its contents with everyone engaged in the activity, including on-site Government representatives. The Contractor must document meeting attendance at the preparatory, initial, and follow-up phases of quality control inspection.
c. The AHA must be continuously reviewed and, when appropriate, modified to address changing site conditions or operations.
d. Develop the activity hazard analyses using the project schedule as the basis for the activities performed. Any activities listed on the project schedule will require an AHA. The AHAs will be developed by the Contractor, supplier, or subcontractor and provided to the Prime Contractor for submittal to the Contracting Officer.
e. Contractor may use Job Hazard Analyses, Job Safety Analyses, or
SECTION 01 35 26.00 25 Page 13 similar Risk Management procedures in lieu of an AHA, provided the data collected is the same as that required by the AHA.
1.9.2 Periodic AHA Review and Updating
Review the AHAs periodically (at least monthly) at the Contractor supervisory safety meeting and update when procedures, scheduling, or hazards change. The on-site superintendent, SSHO, and Competent persons used to develop the AHAs, including updates, must sign and date the AHAs before they are implemented.
1.10 DISPLAY OF SAFETY INFORMATION
Within one calendar day after commencement of on-site work, erect a Safety and Health Bulletin Board at the job site. Where size, duration, or logistics of project do not facilitate a bulletin board, an alternative method, acceptable to the Contracting Officer, that is accessible and includes all mandatory information for employee and visitor review, will be deemed as meeting the requirement for a bulletin board. Include and maintain information on safety bulletin board as required by EM 385-1-1, Section 01.A.06. Additional items required to be posted include:
a. Confined space entry permit.
b. Hot work permit
c. Marine Chemist Certificate (Marine Activities).
1.11 SITE SAFETY REFERENCE MATERIALS
Maintain safety-related references applicable to the project, including those listed in paragraph entitled REFERENCES. Maintain applicable equipment manufacturer's manuals.
1.12 EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENT
Contractors must arrange for their own emergency medical treatment.
Government has no responsibility to provide emergency medical treatment.
1.13 PROJECT SAFE CLEARANCE PROCEDURE
1.13.1 General
Prior to beginning work, submit a Hazardous Energy Control Plan in accordance with EM 385-1-1 and CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1. Ensure that each employee is familiar with and complies with the Lockout/Tagout Safe Clearance procedures in EM 385-1-1, CPL 02-00-147, ER 385-1-31, and Government-furnished Hazardous Energy Control Program Supplemental Procedures, as practiced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1. HEC Procedures Training is required for personnel that have any involvement with electrical equipment or lines;
mechanical equipment; pressure systems; and vessels and lines containing dangerous or hazardous material which can be energized, pressurized, activated, or released remotely or inadvertently. This requirement also applies to any interface of ongoing Project operations. All work requiring a clearance under EM 385-1-1 and Project Specific Safe Clearance Procedures must be coordinated with the Government at least 24 hours in advance. No work shall proceed until the proper clearances have been obtained from the Government for the work authorized and the Contractor has signed and locked
SECTION 01 35 26.00 25 Page 14 onto the principal authorized clearance. Where the requirements of this specification and referenced documents vary, the most stringent requirements must apply.
1.13.2 Safe Clearance Procedure System
A safe clearance system is used by Project Personnel to ensure continuity of service and safety to personnel and equipment. Any work, service, or delivery performed which requires taking Project operating equipment out of service must be done only after a formal clearance is obtained through the Project POC. Clearance must not be violated by Contractor personnel. Any violation of Safe Clearance Procedures will be grounds for removal of the offender(s) from the project. The use of locks and tags is required in the Projects Safe Clearance Procedure for all clearance points that locks can be applied. Where locks cannot be applied, apply Project Clearance Tags.
The use of personal locks for individuals working under Safe Clearance is required by CPL 02-00-147 and CENWP-OD-SAF-385-1.
