Training Press Release

• OSHA Urges Safe Tornado Clean-Up
• Free Training to Precede Active Enforcement in
  Springfield, Ill., Area
• PEORIA, Ill. The U.S. Department of Labors
  Occupational Safety and Health Administration
  (OSHA) is urging contractors engaged in the
  massive clean-up following two tornadoes that
  struck the Springfield, Ill., area in mid-March
  to work safely, obey workplace safety regulations
  and make certain that no human tragedies follow
  the destruction caused by the disastrous weather.
• The federal workplace safety agency is offering
  two outreach meetings at Lincoln Land Community
  College (LLCC), Tuesday and Wednesday, April 4
  and 5, from 5 to 6 p.m. Local contractors can
  learn more about how to avoid unsafe conditions
  and refresh their knowledge of safe work
  practices. Both meetings will be held in Room
  215 in the Millennium Center on the main LLCC
  campus.
• During the initial emergency response, OSHA staff
  provided technical assistance to work crews and
  individuals, temporarily suspending routine
  enforcement procedures, such as citing employers
  for violations and proposing fines.
• Immediately after the tornadoes passed through
  the area, we sent teams of safety professionals
  to Springfield to advise contractors and others
  on safe work practices, said OSHAs Peoria Area
  Director John Newquist. We approached workers
  who were exposed to falls, working with chain
  saws, wood chippers and electrical equipment, and
  reminded them of the safety hazards associated
  with their activities.
• Newquist said the immediate emergency phase is
  now over, and OSHA compliance staff will resume
  regular enforcement. He said that roofing work
  will be of particular concern in the coming
  months.
• The free outreach program were scheduling for
  next week will help contractors achieve zero
  fatalities and zero serious injuries during this
  clean-up period, according to Newquist. Thats
  why we are urging those responsible for the
  safety and health of their workers to take
  advantage of this opportunity.
• Contractors interested in learning more about
  OSHA regulations and safe work practices may gain
  additional information about the outreach effort
  by contacting William Hancock at the Peoria OSHA
  office at 309-589-7033.
• Employers are responsible for providing a safe
  and healthful workplace for their employees.
  OSHAs role is to assure the safety and health of
  Americas workers by setting and enforcing
  standards providing training, outreach, and
  education establishing partnerships and
  encouraging continual improvement in workplace
  safety and health. For more information, visit
  www.osha.gov.

Association Safety Committee Risk Assessment
Policy
119
PURPOSE To ensure risk are identified and
controls are in place to reduce the hazards to
employees, and damage to property.
120
A task analysis alone may be performed when the
likelihood that an injury or illness will occur
is judged to be relatively low. This analysis
shall be performed prior to determining whether a
risk assessment is to be made. These minimal
hazards shall be kept under review and reduced
further whenever possible.
121
The probability and severity of occurrence for
each identified hazard should be evaluated. The
following steps shall be taken in evaluating the
Risk of the Hazard.
122
Risk Assessment Numerical Values

• The evaluation shall consider numerical values
  assigned to the probability and severity of
  identified hazards. These values are assigned
  ranging from one to five (1-5) with one 1
  indicating the least significance of the lowest
  severity of occurrence and five 5 being the
  highest severity of occurrence. The evaluation
  system is shown in tabular form on the risk
  assessment.
• The numerical value of probability shall be
  multiplied times the numerical value of the
  severity for a total score. The following
  evaluations of risk shall apply
• 1. Score 1-5 Low
• 2. Score 6-9 Medium
• 3. Score 10-12 High
• 4. Score 13-25 Critical
• Zero Risk is Non-Existent

123
Critical Risks can not be tolerated. No work
shall be performed until action is taken to
reduce the level of risk to as low as reasonably
practical.
124
High Risks should be reviewed by a competent
person to eliminate or reduce the risk through
engineering or administrative controls to a
level as low as reasonably practical.
125
Medium Risks and risks involving Regulatory
Requirements shall be considered Significant
Aspects that can be controlled through
the application of Operational Controls of the
Environmental, Health and Safety, such as work
instructions and training.
126
Low Risks shall be considered as Non-Significant
Aspects but should be kept under review and
further reduced whenever reasonably practicable.
127
Control measures may be proactive, in which the
severity of a hazardous event occurring is
reduced, or the measures may be reactive in which
the control of the consequences of the hazards is
reduced.
128
A combination of control measures may be
utilized, but choice of control measures shall be
applied according to the following hierarchy as
reasonably practicable
129
Eliminate the hazard.
130
Substitute with equipment, processes, materials,
or procedures that are less hazardous.
131
Isolate hazards so as to protect the whole
workforce.
132
Engineering Controls (Safety Devices)
Top Rail Mid- Rail Toeboard
133
Reduce the hazard by minimizing exposure time,
numbers of people at risk, or similar activities.
134
Utilize safe systems of work by using procedural
or other controls including work permits,
inspection regimes, preventative maintenance, or
similar activities.

• Read the OSHA poster
• Follow the employers safety and health rules and
  wear or use all required gear and equipment
• Follow safe work practices for your job, as
  directed by your employer
• Report hazardous conditions to a supervisor or
  safety committee
• Report hazardous conditions to OSHA, if employers
  do not fix them

135
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
If a risk cannot be entirely eliminated and
preventative measures are not feasible,
protective measures shall be the next
consideration. Protection deals with reducing
the severity of an incident after the onset.
These measures include PPE. EG Respirators,
body harness and lanyard, safety net, etc.
Body Part Protection
136
Competent person means one who is capable of
identifying existing and predictable hazards in
the surroundings or working conditions which are
unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous to employees,
and who has authorization to take prompt
corrective measures to eliminate them.
137
Why NOT Safety?
For more detailed information in determining your
companys risk, it is recommended you refer to
138
the NCCI (National Council on Compensation
Insurance) Class Codes for Cost
139
or your companys EMR (Experience Modification
Rate) for incidents
140
Risk Assessment Scoring Assign Probability Score
(P) to the hazard using the following
guidelines
141
Some Probability Considerations a. Number of
workers exposed to the hazard(s). b. Frequency
of/or duration of employee(s) exposure. c. Employe
e(s) proximity to the hazardous
conditions. d. Other pertinent working conditions
that could affect the seriousness of the
hazard(s), e.g. weather conditions.
142
Assign Severity Score (S) to the hazard from
the following table, using the figure for the
worst possible case.
  The Risk Scoring (RS) for the hazard is
calculated by multiplying P (probability) by S
(Severity).

Risk Assessment

• Conducted prior to beginning project.
• Eliminate down time.
• Anticipate required tools or equipment.
• Discourages the tendency to improvise.

147
OSHA regulations will compliment the Risk
Assessment process however, these standards need
to be viewed as minimum requirements.
By identifying hazards, developing solutions, and
setting goals, one will have a better perception
of hazards and the risk involved.

Hexavalent Chromium

• Minimizing Exposure
• Presented by
• George Hall
• Clinton Power Station
• Amergen Energy-Exelon Nuclear
• OSHA Z Project
• May 2, 2006 Richland Community College

152

• Chromium hexavalent (CrVI) compounds, often
  called hexavalent chromium, exist in several
  forms.
• Chromates are often used as pigments for
• Photography
• Pyrotechnics
• Dyes/paints/inks
• Plastics

153

• They can also be used for stainless steel
  production, textile dyes, wood preservation,
  leather tanning, and as anti-corrosion coatings.
  

154

• Exposures to hexavalent chromium are addressed in
  specific standards for the general industry,
  shipyard employment, marine terminals, and the
  construction industry. This presentation
  highlights a control methods related to
  hexavalent chromium and other metal fumes related
  to welding. It also includes practical ways to
  minimize exposure when welding.

155

• Workers in many different occupations are exposed
  to hexavalent chromium. Occupational exposures
  occur mainly among workers who handle pigments
  containing dry chromate, spray paints and
  coatings containing chromate, operate chrome
  plating baths, and weld or cut metals containing
  chromium, such as stainless steel.

156

• Health Effects Calcium chromate, chromium
  trioxide, lead chromate, strontium chromate, and
  zinc chromate are known human carcinogens. An
  increase in incidence of lung cancer has been
  observed among workers in industries that produce
  chromate and manufacture pigments containing
  chromate. An increased rate of lung cancer has
  also been reported among producers and consumers
  of pigment containing chromate. One study of
  chromium-nickel alloy foundry workers showed a
  statistically significant increase in lung
  cancers. Cancer
• Hexavalent chromium is considered a potential
  lung carcinogen. Studies of workers in the
  chromate production, plating, and pigment
  industries consistently show increased rates of
  lung cancer.
• Eyes
• Direct eye contact with chromic acid or chromate
  dusts can cause permanent eye damage.
• Respiratory Tract
• Hexavalent chromium can irritate the nose,
  throat, and lungs. Repeated or prolonged exposure
  can damage the mucous membranes of the nasal
  passages and result in ulcers. In severe cases,
  exposure causes perforation of the septum (the
  wall separating the nasal passages).

157

• The primary means of human exposure to hexavalent
  chromium and chromate salts are inhalation,
  ingestion, and skin contact. Hexavalent chromium
  can be inhaled when hexavalent chromium dust,
  mist, or fumes are in the air.
• Particles of chromium dust can contaminate hands,
  clothing, beards, food, and beverages. Ensure
  good personal hygiene practices are in place
  before and after working in the area.

158

• OSHA Method NumberID-215 (This method supersedes
  ID-103)Matrix Air OSHA Permissible Exposure
  Limit (proposed)    Hexavalent Chromium
  Cr(VI)    Time Weighted Average (TWA)   
  Action Level (AL)0.50 µg/m30.25 µg/m3
• Collection Device An air sample is collected
  using a 37-mm diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
  filter (5-µm pore size) contained in a
  polystyrene cassette. A calibrated sampling pump
  is used to draw a representative air sample from
  the breathing zone of an employee through the
  cassette and collect particulate on the filter.
  Then sent to a reputable laboratory for analysis.

159

• There are several ways to reduce exposure to
  hexavalent chromium. Recommended controls vary
  from operation to operation. Each space is
  different.
• The preferred approach as required by the OSHA
  standard is to use engineering controls such as
  ventilation, wetting the area or equipment or
  both and process modification.
• If these controls are not sufficient, other
  controls may be implemented, including the use of
  respirators, eye protection, showering, and
  changing into street clothes before leaving the
  plant. Know the details of YOUR process at your
  site is essential. Review other data, but know
  your data and the basis for the numbers, and why.

160

• Use local exhaust ventilation where possible for
  all welding and cutting operations. Further, if
  stainless steel welding or cutting is done in an
  "enclosed space" where using local exhaust
  ventilation is impractical, approved respirators
  must be worn unless you can show that the general
  ventilation is sufficient to maintain exposures
  below the OSHA exposure limit. This means that
  sampling will show where you are for your process
  and or what adjustments are needed.
• You want to know if your engineering controls are
  effective, (filter loading, etc) and if you are
  using other protection, (e.g., respirators), then
  you want to be sure you are not exceeding the
  protection factor for the respirator.

161
Clinton Results Sample data has been taken from a
variety of field sample data, and control body
sampling on specific weld rod and base
metals. Results show a higher Chromium component
for stainless steel welding compared to non
stainless or Chrome Alloy metals. The overall
results and historical data also show that proper
use of engineering controls, wetting the area,
local ventilation capture have shown that
engineering controls can allow weld fumes as well
as Chromium Hexavalent to be managed at levels
below the OSHA standard permissible exposure
limit (PEL).
162
Updated Weld Rod/base metal exposure data study
(Needs to be site specific) Understand exposure
rates for each Weld rod type Base metal

Finally Monitor the results of your
controls Make adjustments Perform Exposure
Assessments Review the Process (start over)
Review Update Sample History The station
performed a comprehensive weld panel study in Dec
2005. It was conducted by an independent
Industrial hygiene company lab on site. This
allowed us to update our baseline weld scan data
and review it against the new levels for
hexavalent chromium. (1ug/m) Use this new data
for planning on SS weld repairs during our
refueling outage.
165
C1R10 Refueling Outage Condenser Maintenance
Putting methods into practice During our
shutdown, several stainless steel repairs were
needed to be made inside our condenser. A
comprehensive ventilation plan was put in place
to ensure that weld fumes were removed from the
area. This required a team approach with
involvement of workers, supervisors, and safety.
We used general area and local ventilation.
166
C1R10 Refueling Outage Condenser Maintenance
Putting methods into practice The use of large
general area HEPA ventilation and local weld
fume eaters were purchased to keep
exposures as low as achievable by Removing weld
fumes in the area. Over 20,000 cfm of HEPA
Ventilation was used to remove fumes from the
area. Sample monitoring showed that levels were
being maintained very low, (almost
non-detectable).
167
C1R10 Refueling Outage Condenser Maintenance
Putting methods into practice Air sample
monitoring, for general area conditions, local
breathing zone sampling, and blank samples allow
us to determine how effective our engineering
controls are. Monitoring filter loading and
rotating units allowed us to manage
filtration. All weld panel constituents were
well below levels of concern (PEL). Its really
about keeping our workers safe.

  breaker racking during system outage windows will
  challenge Operations, drive CPS into Nuclear Risk
  Condition Orange, and adversely affect the INPO
  Index.
• Selected Solution
• Implement Siemens SARRACS (remote breaker
  racking) technology that will remove Operations
  individuals from arc flash zone of damage, will
  maintain Division 3 safety system operability,
  and will offer protection against breaker racking
  damage.
