51. SULFUR DIOXIDE (SO2) AWARENESS: Due to the presence of highly hazardous chemicals located in the Industrial Waste Treatment Plant, always follow the instructions of WVA officials quickly and completely in the event of any emergency. This is especially important when working in or near the Industrial Waste Treatment Plant (IWTP).

Because of the requirements of OSHA's Process Safety Management (PSM) standard (For specific requirements see Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1910.119 on the OSHA website) safe work practices have been developed that provide for the control of hazards during operations such as lockout/tag out; confined space entry; line breaking of process associated piping; control over IWTP facility entry. These safe work practices apply to all employees and contractors equally. Contractors must follow all safe work practices while working on the installation and provide training to employees on PSM before working within the IWTP.

For contractors performing maintenance or repair, turnaround, major renovation, or specialty work on or adjacent to a covered process, contact the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) for more instructions on special provisions of the PSM standard that applies to this work.
