At the Post-Award Conference, both the Contractor and the Government are to designate points of contact for proper coordination of the EAP and to help ensure efficient and rapid evacuation of the facility.

Prior to submitting the APP, coordinate with the point of contact for that Government facility to discuss conditions where an evacuation may be necessary, specific evacuation plans to include routes and exits, any employees to remain after evacuation notification to shut-down critical operations and/or perform other duties before evacuating, employee accounting post-evacuation, and any special equipment for employees.

Develop an EAP based upon EM 385-1-1 , 29 CFR 1910 .38 Emergency Action Plans, and 29 CFR 1926 .35, Employee Emergency Action Plans. Include the EAP in the APP. Ensure that all Contractor and Sub-contractor personnel are trained and familiar with the EAP.

1.9 ACTIVITY HAZARD ANALYSIS (AHA)

a. See EM 385-1-1 Chapter 2-6 for AHA requirements. Before beginning each work activity, task or Definable Feature of Work (DFOW) the Contractor(s) performing that work activity are required to prepare an AHA to ensure minimum safety requirements are adequately addressed.

Use ENG FORM 6206, Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) to complete each AHA. The following applies to all AHA's:

1. AHA's must be developed by the Prime Contractor, subcontractor, or supplier performing the work, and provided for Prime Contractor review and approval before submitting to the Contracting Officer.

2. Develop AHA's using the Project Schedule as the basis for the activities performed. All activities listed on the Project Schedule require an AHA to be completed.

3. AHA's must identify Competent Persons as required by EM 385-1-1 .

4. AHA's must be provided to, reviewed by, and signed by all involved employees prior to starting the activity. Provide copies of signed AHAs to Contracting Officer upon request.

5. Submit each AHA to the Contracting Officer for review at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the start of each activity.

b. The Government reserves the right to require the Contractor to revise and resubmit the AHA if it fails to effectively identify the work sequences, specific anticipated hazards, site conditions, equipment, materials, personnel and the control measures to be implemented.

1.10 LOCKOUT/TAGOUT (LOTO)-SAFE CLEARANCE OR HAZARDOUS ENERGY CONTROL

PROGRAM (HECP) PROCEDURES

All Contractor work on site must meet the requirements of NWWP 385-1-20 and EM 385-1-1 . Digital copies of NWWP 385-1-20 may be obtained from the Contracting Officer upon request. Safe Clearance procedures are used by Project and Contractor personnel to protect personnel, equipment, and the environment, as well as to ensure continuity of service. Any work performed by the Contractor that requires taking project operated equipment out of service is to be done only after a formal clearance is obtained through the Government. Report violations to the Issuing Individual. Violators of safe clearance program may require retraining and retesting.

For jobs with multiple tasks that require AHA's, prepare and submit an Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) on the first feature of work that requires a clearance request. Verify AHA requirements at the Pre-Metrology and Pre-Delivery Meeting.

The following applies to LOTO and HECP procedures:

a. The Government will provide Safe Clearance Tags to the Contractor for clearances using the Government Safe Clearance Procedures. The Contractor must provide personal safety locks, meeting NWWP 385-1-20 Chapter 6, for use with the Government's safe clearance procedures.

See NWWP 385-1-20 , Chapter 6 - Locks and Tags, and Chapter 10 - Outside/Contractor Personnel for further guidance.

b. Use Government HECP procedures on equipment/systems owned by the Government. Use them on all points interfacing with Government owned equipment/systems. In instances where equipment is owned by the Contractor, not yet turned over to the Government, or equipment which is not tied into Government energy sources, the Contractor may use their own Lockout/Tagout Program. Contractor Programs must be pre-approved by the Project's Responsible Official.

c. Submit the names of Authorized Individuals to the Contracting

Officer prior to the Pre-Metrology and Pre-Delivery Meeting.

Project-specific training will be given by the Responsible Official or designee and will be approximately 30 minutes in length.

Project-specific training will be provided for every contract and only to the Contractor's Authorized Individuals. The Authorized Individuals shall brief their work crews and subcontractors of any project-specific clearance information. Training is only required once per year and is, with the exception of project-specific training, valid for every facility within the Walla Walla District.

d. If the Responsible Official or designee determines that the Authorized Individual's knowledge of the HECP procedures are inadequate, the Responsible Official may require retraining and retesting. See NWWP 385-1-20 Chapter 5 - Training for further guidance.

1.10.1 Safe Clearance Training

Contractor, subcontractor, vendors and visitors shall take the appropriate level of HECP Procedure training commensurate with their job duties. Only HECP certificates generated by Vivid Learning Systems HSI for the Walla Walla District are accepted.

Unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall have a sufficient number of Authorized Individuals trained to ensure adequate oversight and that there are no delays to the project.

All Contractor personnel working in areas under a Safe Clearance must be trained as Affected Persons. Any non-working personnel, vendors and visitors, entering an area under Safe Clearance must take Awareness Level
