Contractor Programs shall be pre-approved by the Contracting Officer.

c. The names of Authorized Individuals shall be submitted to the

Contracting Officer prior to the Pre-Construction Meeting.

Project-specific training will be given by the Operations Chief or designee and will be no more than 30 minutes in length.

Access to scaffold platforms greater than 6 m (20 feet) in height shall be accessed by use of a scaffold stair system. Vertical ladders commonly provided by scaffold system manufacturers shall not be used for accessing scaffold platforms greater than 6 m (20feet) in height. The use of an adequate gate is required. Contractor shall ensure that employees are qualified to perform scaffold erection and dismantling. The Contractor shall develop a tag system to identify the condition of the scaffolding with Green Tag as "fully usable" and Red tag as not "safe for use". Do not use scaffold without the capability of supporting at least four times the maximum intended load or without appropriate fall protection as delineated in the accepted fall protection and prevention plan. Stationary scaffolds must be attached to structural building components to safeguard against tipping forward or backward.

Special care shall be given to ensure scaffold systems are not overloaded.

Side brackets used to extend scaffold platforms on self-supported scaffold systems for the storage of material is prohibited. The first tie-in shall be at the height equal to 4 times the width of the smallest dimension of the scaffold base. Work platforms shall be placed on mud sills. Scaffold or work platform erectors shall have fall protection during the erection and dismantling of scaffolding or work platforms that are more than six feet.
