OVERVIEW This entry program: — Describes our procedures for worker safety and health in confined spaces and is written for our Public Works Department as staff in this department may enter confined spaces. — Describes how we manage permit required confined spaces — Describes required training for our employees and describes our responsibility for contractors entering City confined spaces City of Renton Public Works confined spaces include: a. Reservoirs, b. Manholes/Catch Basins/non-potable water pipelines Dry wells, c. Wet Wells/Lift Station, d. Dry Wells/Lift Station e. Chemical storage vault f. Water Storage Tanks/Tanks g. Vaults For locations or a listing of Public Works Confined Spaces please refer to the Attribute Book or Map Books Attribute or Map Books are available at the City Shops, In PW trucks, At City Hall in the Public Works Department and on the RentonNet ( Intranet) Specific entry procedures for each type of space are provided in the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPS) attached to this plan. A confined space is a space that is ALL of the following: • Large enough and arranged so an employee could fully enter the space and work. • Has limited or restricted entry or exit. Examples of spaces with limited or restricted entry are tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, and pits. • Not primarily designed for human occupancy. A permit -required or permit space is a confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics capable of causing death or serious physical harm: Contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere. Contains or has a potential to contain a material with the potential for engulfing someone who enters the space. - Has an internal configuration that could allow someone entering to be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or by a floor, which slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross- section. Contains any physical hazard. This includes any recognized health or safety hazards including, electrical shock, or moving parts. Contains any other recognized safety or health hazard that could either: Impair the ability to self -rescue or result in a situation that presents an immediate danger to life or health. A non -permit space is a space that does not contain actual hazards or potential hazards capable of causing death or serious physical harm. The City of Renton will treat all confined spaces as permit -required spaces until they have been evaluated and are documented to be non -permit or alternate entry. City Of Renton (COR) Permit -required confined spaces will only be entered into by Public Works employees when non -entry rescue can be used. Public Works employees at the City of Renton do not perform entry rescue. The following criteria must be met to be considered a non -entry rescue space: a. The opening is at least 18 inches in diameter b. The size and stature of the entrant along with his/her PPE and any tool -belt can clear the opening c. There is a horizontal and stable surface surrounding the opening to support a tripod or davit and the attendant d. The weight of the entrant and his/her equipment does not exceed the rating and purpose of the retrieval winch e. The length of lifeline cable is adequate for the entrant to remain attached while working in the space f. The retrieval system (harness and lifeline) can be used without the entrant or harness getting caught on anything while working, or in the event he/she needs to be hoisted out of the space with the retrieval system g. Once inside the space the entrant will not travel over baffles or beyond protruding pipes or obstacles in the direction of travel where the harness or lifeline could become caught Note: All Public Works employees at the City Shops (except administrative staff and transportation) are trained in confined space entry. Prior to daily work in Public Works confined spaces, the Department supervision will meet with each employee involved for a group briefing. The briefing will consist of a review of every confined space to be visited on that day. The supervisor will also review the known hazards of each space, the City entry procedures, required equipment, planned rescue, non -entry rescue procedures, and any other information necessary for safe entry. This will be a time for staff to ask questions, make suggestions or voice concerns. The "Public Works Confined Space Review Checklist" will be used for this briefing (see Appendix A). Every permit filled out for the day will be attached to the Public Works Confined Space Review Checklist and kept on file for 18 months. Reviews of these confined space entry records will be performed every year by the Administrator or his/her designee. Employee exposure monitoring, if done for any confined space entry, will be kept in employee files for 30 years. Completed permits and checklists that show the actual atmosphere an employee entered or worked in will be kept for 30 years as employee exposure records. When opening a manhole lid to assess or observe, City employees will not break the plane of the space with a body part. Once the plane of the space has been broken or is intended to be broken a permit is required. All confined spaces are considered to be permit required until they have been evaluated and are documented to be non -permit or alternate entry. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 2 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 II. MOLES & RESPONSIBILITIES Primary responsibility for oversight of the Public Works Department Confined Space Entry Program is the Administrator or his/her designee. Confined Space worker definitions 1. Attendant An individual stationed outside one or more permit -required confined spaces to monitor the entrants and to perform non -entry rescue 2. Entrant An employee who is authorized by the employer to enter a permit -required confined space 3. Entry supervisor The person (such as the employer, crew leader, or crew chief) responsible for: a) Determining if acceptable entry conditions are present at a permit -required confined space where entry is planned; b) Seeing that the permit is properly completed b) Authorizing entry and overseeing entry operations; and c) Terminating entry as required. The following table shows which City Public Works positions are responsible for the tasks outlined: Table 1 Position 3 3 'b`, R y ...E zNii' E � Task 3 E� PL. ..y .... 9..e ��... .y . _:... ..... Department Supervision Evaluate our work locations and determine: • The presence of a Confined Space at the worksite. • Permit -required Confined Space exists at the worksite. Entry Supervisor/ Evaluate the confined space to determine what hazards are present, Department Supervision if any. Entry Supervisor/ Verify entry permit is properly completed and sign it. Department Supervision Entry Supervisor/ Evaluate hazards and determine the appropriate entry procedure for Department Supervision the space. Note: • Until evaluated and documented otherwise, all Confined Spaces shall be considered permit -required spaces. • Alternate entry procedure will apply when the only hazard remaining in the space is a potential hazardous atmosphere controlled by the use of forced air ventilation. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 3 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 lqsit ton nE� Task' am Entry Supervisor Re-evaluate the space when the use, configuration, or hazards of a confined space change. Attendant Individual stationed outside the permit required confined space to monitor the entrant and perform non -entry rescue Entry Supervisor Monitoring and testing as follows: • Conduct initial monitoring to identify and evaluate any potentially hazardous atmospheres • Complete atmospheric testing in the following order: - Oxygen - Combustible gases - Toxic gases and vapors • Record the data and maintain all records Entrant Employee authorized to enter permit required confined space Entry Supervisor/ Inform exposed or potentially -exposed employees of the existence Department Supervision and hazards of confined space using the methods described below under "Control Entry." Entry Supervisor Provide employees entering confined spaces, or their designated representative, an opportunity to observe pre -entry testing and any subsequent testing. - All test results will be provided to the entrants or their representatives upon request. - The space will be re-evaluated if entrants or their representatives believe that the space was inadequately tested. Entry Make sure that all equipment needed for safe entry into any Supervisor/Department confined space is available and in proper working order. Supervision Department Conduct a review using cancelled permits to identify and correct and Manager/Director deficiencies in our program or spaces III. CONTROL OF ENTRY 1. Every employee who enters a confined space or encounters a fall hazard of 10 feet or more shall ensure that all provisions of this procedure and the fall protection work plan have been satisfied prior to entry and/or commencement of work. WAC 296-155-24505 requires a fall protection work plan if the fall hazard is 10 feet or more. The requirements for fall protection and a fall protection work plan are triggered at 10 feet. WAC 296-809-50016 requires that a mechanical retrieval device be at the site if the entry is 5 feet or deeper. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 4 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 WAC 296-24-75003 and 75005 (walking and working surface code) requires protection from a working surface with a fall hazard of 4 feet or more if anyone is close to an open man hole, vault, etc. or standing on a walking surface near the opening. The City requires an attendant be standing and monitoring the location to keep the person from falling into the hole. Alternatively, guardrails can be used to mitigate the fall hazard. When going up or down a fixed ladder, the fall protection trigger height increases to 24 feet before fall protection is needed. If the space is 24 feet or greater, the City requires a harness be used at all times 2. We use the following method(s) to inform employees about the existence and hazards of confined space, and to prevent unauthorized entry: ❑ Pre -entry briefing with supervisor ❑ Signs posted at each permit space reading "Danger- Confined Space- Do Not Enter" or similar language ❑ Barriers ❑ Never leaving the confined space unattended when entry is occurring ❑ Listing hazards for confined space in the Attribute Books The Attendant will take the following actions when unauthorized persons approach or enter a space: • Warn unauthorized persons to stay away from the space • Tell the unauthorized persons to exit immediately if they have entered the space • Inform Entrants and the Entry Supervisor that unauthorized persons have entered the space 4. If the work area contains, or is, a permit area, a placard stating "Danger Permit -Required Confined Space — Follow Entry Procedure before Entering" will be located conspicuously outside the area. 5. Confined Space Supervisor/manager will prevent unauthorized employees and the public from entering permit -required confined spaces. Supervisor/manager will also inform affected employees about the existence, location, and danger of any permit -required confined space by posting danger signs. IV. EQUIPMENT PROVIDED TO EMPLOYEES AT NO COST The City will provide the equipment in Table 2 below, when needed, and will: Make sure that employees use provided equipment properly, and 2. Maintain the provided equipment at no cost to employees. Equipment is kept in the Shops warehouse and the water parts store room. Air monitoring equipment is maintained by Oscar Cantu, Lift Station Technician and Sean Campbell, Maintenance Worker III. The manufacturers' representative (from National Safety) will train City of Renton staff on the use and maintenance of all confined space monitoring equipment. Table 2 R,�6�a Testing and monitoring equipment Evaluating permit -required conditions City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 5 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Ventilating equipment Creating and maintaining acceptable atmospheric entry conditions Communication equipment Providing effective communication between the Attendant and the Entrants and to initiate rescue when required (radios or walkie talkies as needed) Lighting equipment Providing adequate lighting for employees to work safely and to exit the space quickly in an emergency Personal protective equipment (PPE) Protecting employees from hazards of the space or work performed Non -entry rescue and emergency equipment, Providing safe and effective non -entry rescue such as tripods, davits and harnesses, except for equipment provided by an entry rescue service. Barriers or shields Protecting employees from physical hazards outside of the space, such as objects that might fall into the space Any other equipment/PPE Safe entry into and non -entry rescue from permit - required confined spaces Equipment Malfunction - Anyone noting a malfunction of any gas detector, sampling device, ventilation equipment, fall protection equipment, or any other device required for safe entry and/or safe fall protection shall immediately remove the equipment from service, write a discrepancy report, place a completed "RED REPAIR TAG" on the equipment, noting the piece as deficient, and turn the item in to the Supervisor/Manager for repair. The Entry Supervisor is responsible for safe entry and for the issuance of all oxygen and gas detectors and other sampling and/or safety equipment. The entry permit shall be completed prior to entering or commencement of work. The manager, supervisor, and lead worker shall know the proper operation of all sampling and/or safety equipment. The person responsible for confined space and/or fall protection work plan safety who is listed on the entry permit shall know the proper operation of all equipment to be used and shall be responsible for ensuring the employee is trained in the operation of the equipment. V. GENERAL CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PROCEDURES City of Renton Public Works entry procedures for confined spaces include the initial assignment by the Supervisor, Manager, or Lead. Once assigned, the crew has an AM briefing with Supervisor. During the AM briefing they discuss every aspect of entry , SOP/Permit / and Pre -Entry Checklist. All CS entry is typically pre - scheduled, if during routine maintenance they discover a new CS the crew will determine if entry is necessary it will be assigned a date of entry and a pre -briefing will occur prior to entry. The information regarding the new space will be catalogued along with attributes of the space. An engineer will assign a space number and a category. The entry check list will be presented to the Supervisor/Manager/Lead to be used for scheduling of the entry at a future date. If there is an emergency or urgent need to enter a confined space, the lead, supervisor or manager will meet with the crew at the entry site and discusses the hazards involved before entering. Prior to work that requires entry into Public Works confined spaces, the Department supervision will meet with each employee involved for a group briefing. The briefing will consist of a review of every confined space City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 6 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 to be entered on that day. The supervisor will also review the known hazards of each space, the City entry procedures, required equipment, planned rescue, non -entry rescue procedures, and any other information necessary for safe entry. This will be a time for staff to ask questions, make suggestions or voice concerns. The details obtained in the Public Works Confined Space Review (or pre -entry) Checklist" will be used for this briefing. A. In the pre -entry meeting, identify and evaluate potential hazards from: 1. The confined space; and 2. The work to be performed. B. Complete an entry permit before entry is authorized, documenting that you have completed the means, procedures and practices necessary for work and safe, non -entry rescue. C. Make sure that Entrants or their representatives have an opportunity to observe any monitoring, testing, or actions to eliminate or control hazards performed to complete the permit. D. Identify the Entry Supervisor. Make sure the Entry Supervisor signs the entry permit, authorizing entry, before the space is entered. Make the completed permit available to entrants or their authorized representatives at the time of entry by posting the completed permit at the entry location; or by involving each staff person present at the entry site in the completion of the permit and the review of the completed permit G. Make sure the duration of the permit does not exceed the time required to complete the assigned task or job identified on the permit. H. Entry Supervisors will make a visual check of crews making entries to assure correct procedures are being followed and safety precautions are being taken and any problems encountered during an entry operation will be noted on the permit. This information will be used by management to make appropriate revisions to the program, entry operations, means, systems, procedures and practices as needed. The permit will document how it was determined that the confined space contained no permit -required hazards. All entrants and attendants will have a company -issued cell phone or a two-way radio for communication when verbal and line of sight communication is not possible. Where possible, visual contact and verbal communication is more effective and practical. VI. EVALUATE AND CONTROL HAZARDS FOR SAFE ENTRY A. The Entry Supervisor will evaluate atmospheric hazards for safe entry into confined spaces with a multi -gas meter. They will test for atmospheric hazards in this order: oxygen content, flammable gasses and vapors, and potential toxic air contaminants. B. The following limits are used for safe entry: a. Oxygen: between 19.5% and 23.5% City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 7 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 b. Combustible Gases: less than 10% of the lower explosive limit (LEL) c. Toxic Gases and Vapors: Hydrogen Sulfide (HzS) less than 5ppm d. Carbon Monoxide (CO): less than 20ppm e. If combustible dust that reduces visibility to five feet or less is observed, entry will not continue. C. The entry supervisor will provide each entrant or their authorized representative the opportunity to observe pre -entry testing and subsequent testing. D. The entry supervisor will ensure that pumps and lines are blocked or disconnected; when unable to block or disconnect we will perform permit entry: a. All pumps and lines which may reasonably cause contaminants to flow into the confined space will be disconnected, blinded, and locked out/tagged out, or effectively isolated by other means to prevent development of dangerous air contamination or engulfment. b. Not all lateral lines to sewers or storm drains require blocking. However, where experience or knowledge of use indicates a reasonable potential for contamination of air or engulfment into an occupied sewer, then all affected lateral lines are to be blocked. E. Surveillance: The entry supervisor and/or attendants will survey the surrounding area prior to entry to avoid hazards such as drifting vapors from the tanks, piping, or sewers. VII. MONITORING OF CONFINED SPACES A. The Entry Supervisor will re-evaluate the space in the presence of any entrant, or his/her authorized representative, who requests this to be done because they have reason to. believe that the evaluation of that space may not have been adequate. B. Upon request, immediately provide each entrant or his/her authorized representative, with the results of any testing required by this rule. C. The Attendant will continuously monitor conditions in areas where entrants are working.. Always monitor, even if you can isolate!! Evaluate space conditions during entry as follows: Evaluating Space Conditions You must: In order to: The Entry Supervisor must Determine that acceptable entry test conditions before entr conditions exist before entry is authorized y by the Entry Supervisor The Attendant must test or Determine that acceptable entry evaluate space conditions conditions are being maintained during continuously during entry entry operations City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 8 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Make sure Entrants of more than one The Entry Supervisor must employer working at the same time in or evaluate entry operations around a permit -required confined space don't endanger each other Vill. SAFE ENTRY PROCEDURES INTO CONFINED SPACES The Entry Supervisor responsible for the safety of entry, as named on the entry permit, shall evaluate, plan, and implement the procedures necessary to safeguard the personnel assigned to the job. The planning conducted at the pre -entry briefing will ensure the availability of required safety equipment, its serviceability and a thorough analysis of potential hazards from unplanned events or actions which could alter the plan. An entry permit shall be completed for each separate job, each day. In applying these procedures, consideration shall be given to specific conditions that exist at the time. The pre -entry briefing helps to anticipate the potential hazards during permit entry and identify controls that will limit the possibility of employee exposure should the conditions of the permit space change significantly. Worst -case scenario will always be planned for. A. Safety Equipment- For the purpose of this procedure, at least the following will be available: Oxygen and gas detectors and other sampling devices as needed. 2. Blowers and auxiliary equipment as designated for entering confined spaces. 3. A safety harness and life line for the entrant 4. All confined spaces over 4 feet deep shall be entered via safely installed confined space steps or a separate ladder of appropriate length. 5. Ear protection from noise, protective clothing for heat, electrical or corrosive hazards, and respirators shall be worn, as needed. 6. Appropriate traffic control signs -devices and guards to protect the confined space and workers shall be utilized. B. Entering Confined Spaces Before entering, warning devices, guards, etc., will be installed by the crew to provide adequate protections to workers and the public. The Entry Supervisor and/or Attendant will visually check around the outside of the confined space first, then carefully remove cover before testing. To remove the cover, lift the lid just enough to insert the testing device to get an accurate test. This should be done in such a way as to avoid sparks. The crew will never use an open flame to thaw ice around a cover. Initial testing of a confined space atmosphere will be done through holes in the confined space cover where possible. The potentially toxic atmosphere will be tested for oxygen and flammability then hydrogen sulfide, or carbon monoxide depending on the space. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 9 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Never strike a seated cover with a steel or iron tool, and exercise care to reduce the potential for sparks. If needed, a hardened bronze cold chisel or some other non - sparking implement should be used. b. If the initial test checks within limits listed in section VI, the entrant or attendant will remove the confined space cover and prior to entry, test again! If all tests are within limits listed above, the confined space may be entered. Upon initial entry, the attendant will take additional tests with the appropriate meter. Test generally at all areas and levels of the confined space. All monitoring results will be documented on the permit. Even if all tests are within allowable limits, confined spaces that are 15 feet deep or greater shall be purged initially with a power blower with a fresh supply of air for at least 5 changes of air but never less than 5 minutes. Ventilation is available at all times. 4. The atmosphere shall be monitored continuously by the Attendant (not by the entrant). Document results every 15 minutes. All work shall stop and the confined space evacuated if atmospheric testing fails. Re-entry sampling shall be conducted after ventilation has been provided. Sampling should be conducted anytime a confined space is reopened or for crew changes. 5. If atmospheric conditions are measured and found to be outside acceptable operating conditions, evacuate the space and perform the following procedures: - For oxygen deficiency, evacuate the space and ventilate for 5 air changes and test again. All staff are trained in ventilation and air changes. Do not enter an atmosphere that tests below 19.5% oxygen (or greater than 23.5%) by volume. If you cannot get a safe reading, close the confined space and contact your supervisor. The minimum ventilation time shall be 5 minutes. - If flammable gases are detected above 10% of the lower explosive limit, evacuate the space. Close the confined space and advise the supervisor. C. Pumps and lines: - All pumps and lines which may reasonably cause contaminants to flow into the sewer are disconnected, blinded, and locked out/tagged out, or effectively isolated by other means to prevent development of dangerous air contamination or engulfment by PRCS crew. - Not all lateral lines to sewers or storm drains require blocking. However, where experience or knowledge of use indicates a reasonable potential for contamination of air or engulfment into an occupied sewer, then all affected lateral lines are to be blocked. D. Protective clothing and gloves shall be worn when entering a confined space, wet well or sewer. In spaces which do or could contain corrosive chemicals which are toxic through contact, special equipment to prevent skin or eye contact shall be worn. Emergency wash stations are installed at facilities that have corrosive hazards, or portable eyewash kits are included in vehicle first aid kits. E. All workers shall wear a hard hat when working in a confined space. All crew members working at a confined space entry shall carry a current first aid card recognized by the Department of Labor and Industries. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 10 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 G. Lighting - The National Electrical Code requires special lighting equipment for work in confined spaces which may contain a flammable atmosphere. The City shall provide the intrinsically safe equipment and no other equipment shall be used. All portable lights and tools shall be "explosion proof" when working in potentially flammable atmospheres. H. Supervisors shall ensure that workers in confined spaces are not exposed to chemical, physical and biological agents. The best assurance is that we evaluate the confined space and do not enter if these agents are present and cannot be eliminated. No matches, lighters or any other items capable of producing a spark or flame (other than approved tools) are allowed in a confined space. Radio, flashlights, lanterns, lighted smoking materials shall not be used within 10 feet of an open confined space. Entry Supervisors shall ensure that adequate procedures are implemented to prevent foreign objects, tools, rocks, dirt, water, etc., from entering a confined space K. Hot work permits shall be required prior to doing hot work in a confined space. Hot work means any work which requires the intentional use of an ignition source of any type which could ignite flammable gases or vapors, i.e. a cutting torch, welding apparatus, etc. See the City Hot Work policy and utilize a hot work permit if this work is to be performed in a confined space. L. If a confined space is determined to be an entry rescue confined space —stop work, do not enter under any circumstances close the vault and call a supervisor. If hazardous atmospheres cannot be eliminated the space is determined an entry rescue permit -required confined space. M. All Entrants and Attendants will have a company issued cell phone or a two-way radio available for communication if verbal and visual communication is not practical. Never enter until the atmosphere tests safe. Never enter a contaminated or an oxygen -deficient atmosphere. If you are not sure - don't go in. If you smell anything different or feel different - get out now! IX. ENTRY RESCUE AND NON -ENTRY RESCUE PROCEDURES The City of Renton does not perform "Entry Rescue" in permit -required confined spaces. The City performs non -entry rescue only. The City will contract out any entry rescue work. The contractor we use for entry rescue PRCS with hazards that can't be mitigated is NRC Environmental Services, or other City -approved contractor. When performing non -entry rescue, the Entry Supervisor and Attendant must • Use non -entry retrieval systems or methods to rescue entrants in a permit -required confined space unless this: City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 11 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 -Would increase the overall risk of injury to entrants or -Wouldn't contribute to the rescue of the entrant. If either of the above conditions are present, NRC Environmental will do the confined space entry and rescue work. • Make sure each Entrant uses a full -body harness, with a retrieval line attached to the harness at one of the following locations: - At the center of the employee's back, near shoulder level. - Above the employee's head. - At another point which presents a profile small enough for the successful removal of the employee. • Attach the retrieval line to an approved safe mechanical device or fixed point outside the space, so rescue can begin as soon as necessary. This is typically a tripod or davit. • Make sure a mechanical device is available to retrieve entrants from vertical spaces more than 5 feet (1.52 m) deep. X. ALTERNATE ENTRY PROCEDURES As of this writing, the City of Renton treats all confined spaces as permit -required confined spaces and does not use alternate entry procedures. If in the future it becomes appropriate to use alternate entry procedures, we will document the space conditions and follow the procedures in this section. Spaces that have hazardous atmospheres as their only hazard will use alternate entry procedures. Alternate entry procedures require the use of a City of Renton Confined Space Entry Permit. Management will make sure, when using alternate entry procedures, that monitoring and inspection data supports the following: -That the only hazard of the confined space is an actual or potentially hazardous atmosphere. -That continuous forced air ventilation alone is all that is needed to maintain the confined space for safe entry. -Make sure all documentation produced is available to each affected employee and their authorized representative. The City of Renton will do all of the following when using alternate entry procedures: A. Reduce unsafe conditions before removing entrance covers. Remove lid carefully (see Section B-2A). Engulfment hazards must be 100% eliminated to be considered alternate entry. B. After removing entrance covers, promptly guard the opening with a railing, temporary cover, or other temporary barrier to prevent accidental falls through the opening and protect entrants from objects falling into the space. C. Certify that pre -entry measures have been taken (such as safe removal of the cover and having protection needed to gather pre -entry data), with the date, location of the space, and signature of the person certifying. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 12 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 D. Make the pre -entry certification available to each entrant before entry. E. Before an employee enters the confined space, test the internal atmosphere with a calibrated, direct -reading instrument for all of the following, in this order: oxygen content, flammables and toxins. If gases are found or an oxygen deficiency exists, the following procedure should be implemented: 1. Ventilate continuously until atmosphere is brought to normal limits of 19.5% to 23% oxygen, less than 10% of the LEL, less than 20 ppm carbon monoxide, and less than 5 ppm hydrogen sulfide. Once you demonstrate atmosphere is at acceptable levels you may enter under alternate entry. The attendant will continue to monitor during entry. Gas and oxygen testing shall be performed continuously, no matter how "clean" the confined space seems to be. 2. If ventilation does not eliminate the hazards and at any time the concentrations exceed 10% of the lower explosive limit, cease operations. Close the confined space and advise the supervisor. You have now determined that a permit and permit -entry procedures are required for entry into this space. Blowers should be located so there are no unnecessary bends in the hose. One 90- degree bend reduces the blower capacity to 70% of rated capacity. Two bends of 90- degrees reduces capacity to 50% or by half. Blowers shall be located so they will not pick up exhaust gases or fuel vapors (e.g. gasoline, propane, etc. from vehicles, heaters, furnaces, or the blower engine. The blowers should operate for one minute, to flush out the hose, prior to placing it in the confined space. 3. The entry supervisor or attendant will provide entrants, or their authorized representatives, with an opportunity to observe the pre -entry and periodic testing. Make sure the atmosphere within the space is not hazardous when entrants are present. 4. Use continuous forced air ventilation, as follows: - Wait until the forced air ventilation has removed any hazardous atmosphere before allowing entrants into the space. - Direct forced air ventilation toward the immediate areas where employees are, or will be, and continue ventilation until all employees have left the space. - Provide the air supply from a clean source and make sure it does not increase hazards in the space. 5. Test the atmosphere within the space continuously to make sure hazards do not accumulate. 6. If a hazardous atmosphere is detected during entry, we will do all of the following: City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 13 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Evacuate employees from the space immediately. - Evaluate the space to determine how the hazardous atmosphere developed. - Implement measures to protect employees from the hazardous atmosphere before continuing the entry operation. Verify the space is safe for entry before continuing the entry operation. The written documentation is available on site to each employee entering the space or to that employee's representative. Safety harnesses shall be worn with any alternate entry into a confined space, unless re- classifying to a non -permit. A parachute or chest type of harness shall be used which will facilitate the emergency removal from the space. 8. All entrants and attendants will have a company issued cell phone or a two-way radio for communication while in a confined space. XI. CLASSIFY A CONFINED SPACE AS A NON -PERMIT SPACE As of this writing, the City of Renton treats all confined spaces as permit -required confined spaces. Currently, there are no spaces we classify as non -permit. If in the future it becomes appropriate to classify a space as non -permit, we will document the space conditions and follow the procedures in this section. A confined space will be classified as a non -permit as long as no hazards exist in or around the space. The permit shall be filled out prior to entry. If a hazard is present, you must follow all requirements of this part that apply, to make sure any space you classify as non -permit does not have the potential to contain serious health or safety hazards. Examples of permit -required confined spaces that may be considered for reclassification as non -permit in the future include storm manholes, tanks, and vaults with blanked pipes, valve and PRV vaults which have been isolated by shutting off valves. Make sure the confined space meets these conditions to be classified as non -permit confined space: A. The confined space does not contain an actual or potential hazardous atmosphere. B. The confined space does not contain hazards capable of causing death or serious physical harm. This includes any recognized health or safety hazards including engulfment in solid or liquid material, electrical shock, or moving parts. C. If a crewmember must enter to remove hazards, the space must be treated as a permit -required confined space until hazards have been eliminated. If controlling atmospheric hazards through forced air ventilation does not eliminate the hazards it remains a permit -required confined space but will be entered using alternate entry. The supervisor should evaluate the use of lockout-tagout to determine if using it fully eliminates the hazard. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 14 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 You are allowed to use alternate entry procedures covered in WAC 296-809-600, if you can demonstrate that forced air ventilation alone will control all hazards in the space. Documentation on the permit that no permit -required hazards exist will include the following: - The date, location, and signature of the person making the determination. - How we determined that no permit -required hazards exist. - Documentation will be available to entrants or their authorized representatives by asking the entry supervisor or posting at the entry to the space. XII. TRAINING The City provides training to each employee involved in confined space activities, so they acquire the understanding, knowledge and skills necessary to safely perform their assigned duties, establish proficiency in their duties, and to introduce new or revised procedures as necessary. Classroom training is provided to employees. A copy of the most recent training presentation by an outside contractor, Argus Pacific, Inc., is provided as an attachment to this plan. We will provide confined space training to employees at the following times: - When hired upon orientation they will be trained to the City of Renton Confined Space policy, before they are assigned confined space duties, so new employees are aware of our confined spaces. They will receive certification training before they are asked to actually enter a confined space. - When their assigned duties change. - When there is a change in a space that creates hazards for which they have not been trained. - If we have reason to believe that there are deviations from City procedure for entry or employee knowledge or use of procedures is inadequate. The new employee will receive a copy of our policy and procedure, will be shown a confined space video, and will observe confined space entry until trained and certified for entry by confined space consultant. The new hire will not enter a Confined Space until Confined Space certified. Supervisors will determine proficiency by observing employee performance during entry, during training exercises. The Supervisor will verify employee proficiency in their assigned duties by observing as they perform their work. Certification is issued by a consultant and will contain each employee's name, the trainer's written or electronic signature or initials, and the dates of training. Certificates are available for inspection by employees or their authorized representatives. The City uses Argus Pacific, Evergreen Safety and United Rentals for Confined Space training. Training is provided annually. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 15 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Following are 6 basic categories of training, based on duties and potential exposure: I. City supervisors provide awareness training to all employees potentially exposed to permit spaces, covering the following: a. The location and hazard of each space b. The company program for confined space c. Emphasis on not entering the space for any reason. 2. The City provides a consultant for entry and exit training for the following team members: a. Entrants b. Attendants/non-entry rescuers c. Entry Supervisors 3. Training on how to manage entries for entry supervisors is provided by a consultant. 4. Pre -entry procedure training provided by a consultant for all: a. Entrants b. Entry Supervisors c. Attendants/non-entry rescuers 5. A consultant will provide training on evaluating and testing for: a. Entry supervisors b. Staff assigned to test and evaluate the space 6. Retraining for employees when there is any reason to believe they are not proficient at their duties will be provided by the City or consultant as needed. The City will have annual practice sessions for all employees entering confined spaces. Annual practice sessions will allow each employee the opportunity to enter a space and be observed and perform non -entry rescue practice. Each employee will play the role of entrant, the attendant and the entry supervisor. Training will be provided on each typical representative type of space. Employees will also practice inspection of and troubleshooting rescue equipment. The annual practice session will be documented and kept on file for 5 years. In accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, rescue equipment dedicated.for use in practice sessions will be kept separate from equipment used in actual confined.space entry in the field. XIII. OUR RESPONSIBILITIES FOR CONTRACTORS ENTERING CITY OF RENTON CONFINED SPACES A. The City of Renton Confined Space Entry Program is available on the Renton City website. The City includes standard language provisions in its capital improvement project contracts and its construction permit conditions requiring each contractor to: Review and be familiar with the City's on-line Confined Space Public Works Entry Program. 2. Review documented information about the City confined spaces in which entry is intended as listed and described in the City's Attribute and Map Book. This information includes identified hazards for each permit -required confined space. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 16 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 3. Each contractor shall have their own confined space entry program. Upon request of the City they will provide a statement confirming they are in compliance with their confined space entry program including requirements for confined space training for employees associated with the project in Renton. 4. Be responsible for following all confined space requirements established by the provisions in WAC 296-809 and its chapters. Coordinate entry operations with the City of Renton when employees from the contractor will be working in or near City confined spaces. 6. Discuss entry operations with the City of Renton including the program followed during confined space entry. 7. Debrief the City on any hazards confronted or created at the completion of entry operations. 6. Place signs stating, "Danger, Follow Confined Space Entry Procedure Before Entering" at each confined space to be entered. Never leave the confined space open and unattended. B. The contractor's or consultant's point of contact with the City in regard to confined space entry will be the City's assigned construction inspector and/or the City's project manager. XIV. OUR RESPONSIBILITIES WITH HOST EMPLOYERS (CITY OF RENTON ENTERING ANOTHER EMPLOYER'S CONFINED SPACES Obtain any available information about confined space hazards and entry operations from the host employer. Our Entry Supervisor will do the following to make sure entry operations are coordinated with host employers: Obtain any information on the hazards of the permit space and information from previous entry operations 2. Determine if other workers will be working in or near the space. 3. Coordinate entry operations with other workers 4. Inform the host employer of the confined space program that we follow. 5. Hold a debriefing conference at the completion of the entry operation, or during the entry operation if needed, to inform the host employer. of any hazards confronted or created during work in the space. 6. Inform the employer of any hazards you confronted or created while in their space XV. RESCUE AND EMERGENCY SERVICES The City of Renton does not provide entry rescue services as we do not enter permit required confined spaces unless non -entry rescue procedures apply. We contract out for those services with qualified consultants or City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 17 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 contractors. These qualified consultants or contractors provide their own rescue operations. One of the City,'s contractors for entry -rescue and emergency services is NRC Environmental Services 26328 79 Ave. S. Kent, WA 98032 2S3.872.8988 Emg Resp.1.800.33.SPILL The City has a list of other contractors they may use, these include Veolia, Onyx, Envirospace, Atmos. Inc. and Foss Enviornnmental. ❑ For emergency situations in a confined space, the entry teams will work together to assess and determine if 911 services will be called. All staff is certified in CPR. All trucks are equipped with a two- way radio for dispatch. If immediate hazards to injured personnel are present, workers at the site will implement emergency procedures without entering the sewer. When it is practical, the full -body harness is used to suspend a person upright and a hoisting device or similar apparatus is available for lifting workers out of the sewer. If at any time the use of a hoisting device or full -body harness and attached lifeline will endanger the worker, their use will be discontinued We train employees on the specific procedures for summoning the rescue and emergency services. When needed, we call 911. City staff performing entry -rescue is cause for discipline up to and including termination. Procedures for Safely Removing Workers from Sewers (Non -Entry rescue) If Then There is any questionable action or — Perform a verbal check. non -movement by the worker inside — Immediately remove the worker from the sewer if there is no response —use non -entry removal The worker is disabled due to falling — Do not remove the worker from the sewer unless there or impact is immediate danger to the worker's life. — Notify local rescue personnel immediately. — Make sure the standby worker doesn't enter the sewer in this case. • Only trained rescue personnel (wearing self contained breathing apparatus-SCBA) will enter to perform a rescue. — Make sure all workers entering the space use a full - body harness with attached lifeline with the free end of the line secured outside the entry opening. — Make sure the standby worker uses the lifeline to attempt to rescue a disabled worker without entering the space and summons rescue services based on their assessment of the situation. XVI. REQUIRED PROGRAM REVIEW City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 18 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 At least every 12 months, supervisors will conduct a review using canceled entry permits to identify any deficiencies in our program. We will conduct a review immediately if there is reason to believe that the program does not adequately protect our employees, such as the following situations: A. Unauthorized entry of a permit space B. Discovery of a hazard not covered by the permit C. Detection of a condition prohibited by the permit D. An injury or near -miss during entry E. Change in the use or configuration of the space Or Employee complaints of confined space program ineffectiveness. Corrective measures will be documented by revising the program. Employees will participate in revising the program, and will be trained on any changes. Failure to comply with these procedures is grounds for discipline, up to and including termination. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 19 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Definitions Acceptable entry conditions The conditions that must exist in a permit -required confined space to allow safe entry and work Attendant An individual stationed outside one or more permit -required confined spaces to monitor the entrants Blanking or blinding The absolute closure of a pipe, line, or duct by fastening a solid plate (such as a spectacle blind or a skillet blind) that completely covers the bore. It is capable of withstanding the maximum pressure of the pipe, line, or duct with no leakage beyond the plate. Confined space A space that is all of the following: - Large enough and arranged so an employee could fully enter the space and work. - Has limited or restricted entry or exit. Examples of spaces with limited or restricted entry are tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, excavations, and pits. - Not primarily designed for human occupancy. Double block and bleed The closure of a line, duct, or pipe by closing and locking or tagging 2 in -line valves and by opening and locking or tagging a drain or vent valve in the line between the 2 closed valves. Emergency Any occurrence (including any failure of hazard control or monitoring equipment) or event internal or external to the permit -required confined space that could endanger authorized entrants. Engulfment The surrounding capture of a person by a liquid or finely divided (flowable) solid substance that can be inhaled to cause death by filling or plugging the respiratory system or that can exert enough force on the body to cause death by strangulation, constriction, or crushing. Enter (entry) The action by which a person passes through an opening into a permit -required confined space and includes work activities in that space. Entry is considered to have occurred as soon as any part of the entrant's body breaks the plane of an opening into the space. Note: If the opening is large enough for the worker to fully enter the space, a .permit is required even for partial body entry. Permits aren't required for partial body entry where the opening isn't large enough for full entry, although other rules such as chapter 296-803 WAC lockout-tagout, and chapter 296-841 WAC, Airborne contaminants will apply. Entrant An employee who is authorized by the employer to enter a permit -required confined space City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 20 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Entry permit (permit)/SOP The written or printed document that is provided by you to allow and control entry into a permit - required confined space and that contains the information required in WAC 296-809-500, Permit Entry Procedures. Entry supervisor The person (such as the employer, crew leader, or crew chief) responsible for: - Determining if acceptable entry conditions are present at a permit -required confined space where entry is planned; - Authorizing entry and overseeing entry operations and - Terminating entry as required. Hazardous atmosphere a. An atmosphere that may expose employees to the risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self -rescue (that is, escape unaided from a permit -required confined space), injury, or acute illness caused by one or more of the following: b. Oxygen: less than 19.5% or greater than 23.5% c. Combustible Gases: greater than 10% of the lower explosive limit (LEL) d. Toxic Gases and Vapors: Hydrogen Sulfide (HZS) greater than 10ppm e. Carbon Monoxide (CO): greater than 35ppmlf combustible dust that reduces visibility to five feet or less is observed, entry will not continue. - Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10% of its lower flammable limit (LFL). - Airborne combustible dust at a concentration that meets or exceeds its LFL. Note: This concentration will be approximated as a condition in which the dust obscures vision at a distance of 5 feet (1.52 m) or less. - Atmospheric oxygen concentration below 19.5% or above 23.5%. - Atmospheric concentration of any substance which may exceed a permissible exposure limit. For additional information about atmospheric concentration, see chapter 296-62 WAC, Parts F, G, and I, General Occupational Health Standards and chapter 296-841 WAC, Airborne contaminants. Note: An airborne concentration of a substance that isn't capable of causing death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self -rescue, injury, or acute illness due to its health effects isn't covered by this definition. - Any other atmospheric condition that is immediately dangerous to life or health. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 21 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Note: You can find guidance on establishing acceptable atmospheric conditions for air contaminants, which have no WISHA-determined doses or permissible exposure limits using other sources of information, such as: - Material safety data sheets required by WAC 296-800-170, Employer Chemical Hazard Communication. - Published information - Internal documents. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 22 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 • , Hot work permit A written authorization to perform operations, for example, riveting, welding, cutting, burning, and heating, that can provide a source of ignition Immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) Any of the following conditions: - An immediate or delayed threat to life - Anything that would cause irreversible adverse health effects - Anything that would interfere with an individual's ability to escape unaided from a permit -required confined space. Note: Some materials - hydrogen fluoride gas and cadmium vapor, for example - may produce immediate transient effects that, even if severe, may pass without medical attention, but are followed by sudden, possibly fatal collapse 12 to 72 hours after exposure. The victim "feels normal" after recovery from transient effects until collapse. Such materials in hazardous quantities are considered to be "immediately' dangerous to life or health (IDLH). Inerting The displacement of the atmosphere in a permit -required confined space by a noncombustible gas (such as nitrogen) to such an extent that the resulting atmosphere is noncombustible. Note: This procedure produces an IDLH oxygen -deficient atmosphere. Isolation The process by which a permit -required confined space is removed from service and completely protected against the release of energy and material into the space by such means as: - Blanking or blinding - Misaligning or removing sections of lines, pipes, or ducts - A double block and bleed system - Lockout or tagout of all sources of energy or - Blocking or disconnecting all mechanical linkages. Line breaking The intentional opening of a pipe, line, or duct that is or has been carrying flammable, corrosive, or toxic material, an inert gas, or any fluid at a volume, pressure, or temperature capable of causing injury. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 23 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 Non -permit confined space A confined space that does not contain actual hazards or potential hazards capable of causing death or serious physical harm. Oxygen deficient atmosphere An atmosphere containing less than 19.5% oxygen by volume Oxygen enriched atmosphere An atmosphere containing more than 23.5% oxygen by volume Permit -required confined space or permit space A confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics capable of causing death or serious physical harm: - Contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere - Contains a material with the potential for engulfing someone who enters - Has an internal configuration that could allow someone entering to be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or by a floor, which slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross section - Contains any physical hazard. This includes any recognized health or safety hazards including engulfment in solid or liquid material, electrical shock, or moving parts - Contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard that could either: - Impair the ability to self -rescue or - Result in a situation that presents an immediate danger to life or health. Permit -required confined space program An overall program for: - Controlling and appropriately protecting employees from permit -required confined space hazards; and - Regulating employee entry into permit -required confined spaces. Prohibited condition Any condition in a permit -required confined space that isn't allowed by the permit during the authorized entry period. Rescue service The personnel designated to rescue employees from permit -required confined spaces. Retrieval system The equipment used for non -entry rescue of persons from permit -required confined spaces, such as a retrieval line, full -body harness or wristlets, and a lifting device or anchor. City of Renton Confined Space Program p. 24 of 29 Last Updated 11/7/2011 , Testing The process of identifying and evaluating the hazards that entrants may be exposed to in a permit - required confined space. Testing includes specifying the tests that are to be performed in the permit - required confined space. Note: Testing allows employers to devise and implement adequate controls to protect entrants during entry, and to determine if acceptable entry conditions are present.
