Risk Management Program
Introduction
The purpose of this section is to describe a consistent control mechanism to prevent fires from welding, cutting, drilling, grinding, soldering, brazing, explosive actuated tool use, hot tar operations, hot plate use, and open burning activities. In order to comply with 40 CFR 68.85, a permit is issued for hot work operations conducted on or near a covered process. This permit documents that the fire prevention and protection requirements in OSHA regulations, 29 CFR 1910.252 (a), have been implemented prior to commencing the hot work operations.
Permit Procedure
A hot work permit request form, Form K-1 included in Appendix K, must be completed by Dalecarlia WTP personnel or outside contractors for any hot work to be performed on or near hazardous material/chemical process and facilities as follows:
• Work on tanks, containers, piping feed systems, or ancillary equipment containing chemicals or fuels.
• Work in chlorine facility rooms or on any part of the nondiluted chlorine system.
• Work within 25 feet of any flammable/combustible material with NFPA fire rating of 2 or greater.
• Wherever confined space entry testing indicates a hazardous atmosphere.
• Wherever a “Hot Work Permit Required” sign is posted.
• Work, where in the Foreman’s judgement that ignition/explosion of chemicals could occur from sparks, hot slag, etc.
The work site Foreman and the WA Safety and Occupational Health Program Manager or WA Project Engineer will review the proposed task and provide authorization that hot work is required. A hot work permit is then issued to the designated maintenance staff or contractor. This permit documents that appropriate fire prevention and protection requirements have been implemented prior to beginning hot work, the object(s) upon which hot work will be performed have been identified, and the dates for this work have been authorized.
The maintenance staff reviews all appropriate safety precautions to be taken prior to performing the hot work with the work site Foreman, including lockout/tagout, respiratory protection, use of personal protective equipment, etc.
When contractors perform work on WA property and lines, the maintenance staff will point out to the contractors where hot work permit procedures are required.
Section 11 Hot Work Permit
Dalecarlia Water Treatment Plant Risk Management Program / 11-2
Normally, hot work permits expire once each individual task is completed and at the end of the work day. A new permit is completed and issued at the beginning of each work day. However, extended contracts may be issued based on work/tasks to be performed.
After the designated maintenance mechanic or contractor completes items 1 through 6 of the Hot Work Permit Request form, the form must be submitted to the work site Foreman for review and signature of approval. The Foreman then passes the form to the WA Safety and Occupational Health Program Manager and/or WA Project Engineer for review and signature of approval. If the work is to be performed in a confined or poorly ventilated space, the Hot Work Permit Request form must be accompanied by a Confined Space Certificate (when applicable) issued and signed by a Confined Space Technician who has performed all tests and procedures required by the Confined Space Entry Program. The approved Hot Work Permit Request form becomes the hot work permit.
One copy of the hot work permit form is assigned to the maintenance staff or contractor who displays it at the work site until all hot work operations are finished. A second copy of the form remains in the hot work permit issuance book maintained by the WA Safety and Occupational Health Program Manager.
Upon completion, the maintenance staff performs any necessary unlocking/untagging, testing, or other activities necessary to return equipment to service and will notify the work site Foreman that operations may return to normal.

1.10 SEQUENCE OF CONSTRUCTION
1.10.1 General
Contractor shall construct work included under this contract in accordance with the following sequence of construction restrictions. Restrictions have been placed on when work can be completed within existing treatment facilities to ensure that adequate water production capacity remains in service to meet peak finished water demands and to ensure that the water treatment plant continues to comply with existing permit requirements. If specific calendar dates are listed below, they shall be considered unchangeable. The following construction sequencing requirements apply to this project:
a. Modifications to the existing Forebay dredge, grinder, and the Forebay Residuals Pump Station power, controls and piping systems shall be completed within 160 days from initial shutdown of any portion of this system. These modifications shall not negatively impact the ongoing operation of the electrical gear located in the Booster Control Station or the low lift pumping operation performed by the Booster Pumping Station at any time during the Forebay grinder, dredge, and Forebay Residuals Pump Station modifications. The Booster Control Station provides power to the Booster Pumping Station and the Forebay dredge and residuals pumping facilities. Continuous operation of both the Booster Pumping Station and the Booster Control Station are critical to the overall operation of the Dalecarlia Water Treatment Plant.
b. Piping modifications required to install four new thickened residuals grinders in the east and west pump basements of the existing Residuals Processing Facility shall be completed one thickened residuals pipe at a time. All piping, electrical, and controls modifications associated with a given grinder installation shall be sufficiently complete so as to provide Beneficial Use as defined below before modifications are started at the next grinder location. A minimum of three gravity thickeners and associated thickened residuals pipes shall be maintained in service at all times.
c. Electrical and controls modifications associated with adding grinders at the Residuals Processing Facility shall not impact

Provide temporary weatherproof enclosure at doors to prevent rainwater and debris from entering building while modifications are being completed.
f. Modifications to the Residuals Processing Facility third floor sprinkler piping shall be completed within 45 days of removing the system from service. The Contractor's work is anticipated to include draining the existing sprinkler system on the third floor and posting a fire watch while the system is drained. The Contractor can then remove the piping and install new piping as shown on the Drawings using mechanical couplings that match the existing system. After the new piping and sprinkler heads are installed, the Contractor can refill the sprinkler piping with water. Once the piping is filled and any air is removed from the system, the contractor shall pressurize the sprinkler piping on this floor to 200 PSI and hold this pressure for 2 hours, as witnessed by Baltimore Corps of Engineer's staff. If the system passes the hydrostatic test, the Contractor shall complete the acceptance test form from Chapter 25 of NFPA 13 and submit it for review and approval. If the system does not pass the hydrostatic test, the Contractor shall repair the system and retest it until is passes. The acceptance test form described above can then be submitted. Once the form is reviewed and approved the system can be accepted and the fire watch can stop.
g. Modifications to the existing odorous air suction and discharge ductwork system (exclusive of the 3rd floor scrubber inlet and outlet ductwork if scrubber is not on-site by this time) shall be completed prior to May 31, 2018, to ensure that the odorous air collection and discharge system (including fans) remains in service during the warm summer months (June 1st to October 1st).
Odorous air suction ductwork shall be replaced one header at a time to minimize the percentage of the system removed from service at any given time. Complete the replacement of the suction and discharge ductwork as defined above within 4 weeks from removing the initial portion of the system from service. Maintain the existing, new or temporary fans in service to serve the remainder of the system while portions of the ductwork are being replaced.
