F HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This operation & maintenance plan (Plan) has beenprepared for the Marion (Bragg) Landfill, also referred toas the Marion (Bragg) Dump site, located in Marion, Indiana.This plan covers those activities necessary to provide forthe performance of the implemented remedy. This includesthe routine inspection and subsequent repair and/orreplacement of the fence and attached warning signs, the capsystem, flood protection measures and monitoring wellnetwork. Ground water and surface water monitoring isincluded as part of operations and maintenance.Responsibility for implementation of these activities areshared between the City of Marion and the Marion (Bragg)Landfill Group (Group). The City of Marion'sresponsibilities include the following; inspection andmaintenance of the fence and attached warning signs, the capsystem, and flood protection measures. The Group will beresponsible for ground water and surface water monitoringprogram and maintenance of the monitoring wells and surfacewater level gages. Included in this plan are schedules formonitoring and maintenance, a general site map, estimatedannual costs, design details for the cap system, signs,fence, wells, and a general site health and safety plan.Details of the operations and maintenance tasks are alsoprovided.

1.1 General Site DescriptionThe Marion (Bragg) Landfill site consists of a 72-acre

parcel of land located on the southeast edge of Marion,Grant County, Indiana (See Figure 1 for site location).Approximately 45 of the site's 72 acres were used forlandfilling purposes prior to closing in 1975. The remedialaction includes monitoring of ground and surface water, andconstruction of the cap system. The cap construction hasbeen completed.

The Mississinewa River borders the site to the east andnorth, a cemetery borders it to the west, and an abandoned

gravel pond, borders it to the south. A pond ofapproximately 15 acres lies near the center of the site. Asmall asphalt/construction business, identified as DobsonConstruction Company is located along the southwest cornerof the site, (See Figure 2 for site map).

2.0 MAINTENANCE TASKS

2.1 Perimeter Fence (Access Control)

2.1.1 Description of the Fence (Access Control)A fence has been installed to prevent unauthorized

persons from entering the facility. It consists of a 6 foothigh galvanized chain-link fence with three vehicle gatesand six man gates (See Figure 3 for design detail) . Twovehicle gates are located near Central Avenue, and a thirdvehicle gate along the river near MB-7. Four man gates arelocated along the river and two along the former East SideCove property. Figures 4A and 4B indicate the location ofthe gates. Warning signs (See Figure 3 for design detail)have been attached to the fence at intervals ofapproximately 200 feet.

2.1.2 Maintenance TasksMaintenance of the perimeter fence, attached warning

signs, the gates and locks consists of repairs necessitatedby damage from vandalism and/or normal wear and tearincluding accidents. One roll of fencing, five posts, fivesigns and five gate locks will be kept by the City of Marionfor use in repair and/or replacement of the fencecomponents.

A weekly inspection will be conducted to determine therequired fence maintenance, if any, and is performed by theCity of Marion. This inspection can be performed by drivingthe perimeter of the site. That portion of the fence notvisible will need to be walked. A more thorough inspectionof the fence will be performed on a monthly basis and noted

in the "Inspection Log", Figure 5. This inspection will beperformed by walking the entire perimeter and noting anynecessary repairs. Also at this time, all of the gate lockswill be lubricated with a dry graphite spray. Any necessarymaintenance identified during the inspections would bescheduled within 24 hours and completed as soon as possible.See Appendix A for details of monthly inspections.

2.1.3 Costs—Capital and MaintenanceThe capital cost for the perimeter fence is

approximately $90,000, which also includes the warning signsand gates. The post-closure costs are estimated to be$5000/yr to include replenishing replacement stock offencing, posts, gate locks and warning signs, if needed.Also included in the costs are the monthly inspections andrequired maintenance as indicated by the monthly inspectionon the "Inspection Log" (Figure 5) . See Appendix B for anestimate of Annual Post-Closure Costs.

2.2 WellsInspection of the well casings, locks, and concrete

pads will be performed by the City of Marion in conjunctionwith their monthly inspection. Lubrication of the welllocks with a dry graphite spray will be performed inconjunction with any sampling activity.

2.3 Cap System

2.3.1 Description of Cap SystemThe surface of the existing landfill has been regraded

to a slope of not less than two percent as specified in thedesign, using a combination of common fill, clay, andtopsoil. The use of a minimum slope of two percent wasconsidered acceptable by the Indiana Department ofEnvironmental Management (IDEM), and therefore consistentwith IDEM 329 IAC 2-8-7c (proposed April 1, 1987) . Thecommon fill was placed to bring low areas up to anappropriate grade. A clay cap of appropriate thickness wasthen placed directly above the common fill and landfill

material. The clay cap was placed in layers of not morethan 8 inches and compacted to a total minimum thickness oftwo feet (the clay thickness was greater on steeper slopes)and a maximum permeability of Ix 10~6 cm/sec.

A six inch layer of topsoil was placed over the clayfor the purpose of seeding. In the areas that lie in themain flood channel of the Mississinewa River, a geosyntheticerosional control matting (Enkamat) or ECM, was placed overthe topsoil for the purpose of flood protection and erosioncontrol. In the areas outside of the main flood channel,jute matting or an equivalent was placed on the steepslopes. The topsoil was then seeded and fertilized.

2.3.2 Maintenance TasksMaintenance of the cap system consists of the following

tasks to be performed by the City of Marion:

* A monthly inspection of the entire cap systemto determine what, if any, maintenance isrequired. The results of the inspection willbe recorded on the "Inspection Log", (Figure5) . This inspection will include inspectionfor areas of vector disturbance such asrodent burrowing and insect infestation,cracking, erosional damage, and areas ofstressed vegetation or unvegetated areas(areas without grass). If vector disturbanceis identified, a licensed exterminator willbe called to rid the affected location. Nochemicals will be used to exterminate thevectors without prior consent of EPA andIDEM. Areas of stressed vegetation will beinvestigated to determine the cause of thestress. Refer to the Inspection Log as shownin Figure 5 for a complete checklist.

* Repair of erosion damage which has progressedinto the clay, rebuilding and regrading ofcapped areas which have settled and generalmaintenance to include clay and topsoilreplacement, reseeding, and re-applyingfertilizer of undeveloped areas of vegetative

cover (areas without grass), as necessary.The replacement of clay and topsoil shall beconsistent with the design and be replaced toappropriate grades and thickness. Refer tothe excerpts from the cap constructionspecifications in Appendix C for earthwork.Different seeds mixtures are utilized indifferent areas. Fertilizers differing fromthose used in the construction phase must beapproved by EPA and IDEM prior toapplication. Herbicides and pesticides arenot permitted without explicit approval ofEPA and IDEM.

The rip-rap areas along the on-site pond andthe river bank will be inspected monthly, asnoted on the Inspection Log, Figure 5, andnecessary maintenance performed to ensure theintegrity of the rip-rap areas. The rip-rapshelf along the river bank has been designedto allow the shelf to collapse whilemaintaining the appropriate thickness (24inches) of rip-rap on the river bank.Therefore, maintenance of the rip-rap on theriver bank should be conducted to maintainthis minimum rip-rap thickness.

The river and pond banks will be inspectedmonthly for any loss of stability which mayimpact the cap.

The entire Marion (Bragg) landfill site willbe observed for areas of leachate generation.If leachate breaks are identified they willbe reported to the Group for investigation ofappropriate remedial measures. The EPA andIDEM will be similarly notified, and theirconcurrence received prior to conducting anyremedial measures.

Mowing of the entire cap and adjacent areaswhen the grass reaches a maximum height of 24inches (estimated to be 6 times a year).Grass will be cut to a minimum height of 12inches. As part of mowing, the cap surface

i i

will be inspected for signs of trees or brushthat may be attempting to take hold. Iftrees or brush are noted they will need to beremoved. Mowing should be conducted so asnot to damage the ornamental vegetation nearthe site entrance. At no time willherbicides or pesticides be used on the sitewithout prior approval from the EPA and IDEM.

* Fertilization of the entire cap in May andOctober. Herbicides and pesticides are notpermitted without explicit approval of EPAand IDEM.

* As part of the quarterly and semi-annualmonitoring events a combustible gas meter andHNU will be used for detection of vapors, ifany, venting from the open monitoring wells.This monitoring while being monitored forhealth and safety purposes will also besufficient to detect the migration of anylandfill gas. This monitoring along with aninspection of the site for stressedvegetation, should detect any unacceptablelevels of landfill gas. A more detaileddiscussion of the landfill gas monitoring isprovided in Appendix E.

Inspection of the cap system and any maintenance thatis required is noted on the "Inspection Log" as illustratedin Figure 5.

Mote: If the conditions requiring repair suchas, exposed wastes, leachate seeps, orstressed vegetation are identified, theGroup, EPA and IDEM will be notified andappropriate measures undertaken (See Table1 for the list of persons to becontacted,) Notification of EPA and IDEMwill be in accordance with the time periodrequired by the Consent Decree. Selectionof the measures to be undertaken willrequire evaluation at the time ofoccurrence. Appropriate measures will beimplemented upon receipt of EPA and IDEM

12

concurrence with the selected remedialmeasure.

2.3.3 Flood Protection (Erosion Control) MeasuresSince portions of the site lie within the main channel

of 100-year floodplain of the Mississinewa River, the caphas been provided with the (ECM) and vegetation to withstandfloodwaters. Only those areas of the cap that lie withinthe main channel 100-year floodplain are covered with theECM, (See Figure 6 for typical cross-section of area that iscovered).

2.3.4 Flood Protection (Erosion Control) MaintenanceFlood protection maintenance to be undertaken by the

City of Marion consists of the following tasks, asrequired, and carried out in conjunction with those of thecap:

* Maintenance of settled and/or eroded areas;ECM repair or replacement; clay and topsoilreplacement; rip-rap repair/replacement;reseeding; and re-applying of fertilizer toundeveloped areas of vegetative cover (areaswithout grass).

Note: .Refer to the excerpt from the capconstruction specifications inAppendix C for grading instructions.The clay must be brought to theoriginally specified grade beforetopsoil can be added. Refer toAppendix D for the type of fertilizerand seed to be used and rate ofapplication to be used in the areawhere the maintenance is to takeplace.

The ECM should only require replacement subsequent toloss in soil stability such as that caused by erosion andfloodwater damage. The jute mat will likely deteriorate in2 to 5 years, at which time vegetation should be establishedand, therefore jute replacement will not be necessary.

2.3.5 Costs—Capital and MaintenanceThe capital costs for the cap are approximately

$5,500,000. Post-closure costs for the first five years areestimated to be approximately $150,000, and are broken downbelow for each year. It is anticipated that the maintenanceperiod will extend for a total of 30 years which isconsistent with the monitoring period as provided for in theConsent Decree.

2.4 Ground Water and Surface Water Monitoring

2.4.1 Overview of Monitoring ProgramThe monitoring plan at the Marion (Bragg) Landfill

consists of ground water and surface water sampling. Groundwater monitoring program includes sampling the tenmonitoring wells (See Figure 7 for design detail of wells)installed during remedial action. Eight of the ten wellsare installed on the landfill property down-gradient fromareas of waste deposition. Two additional wells areinstalled upgradient from the facility to provide dataregarding the quality of ground water entering the site,(See Figure 8 for the ground water monitoring welllocations). The purpose of the surface water sampling

1 6

program is to determine whether surface water is beingimpacted by the landfill. The five sampling points on theMississinewa River are located as follows; one upstream ofthe landfill, three locations adjacent to the landfill andone location downstream of the landfill. In addition, onesampling point is located along Lugar Creek, two at the on-site pond, and two at the off-site pond, (See Figure 8 forsurface water monitoring locations).

Ground water and surface water sampling and analysismethodologies are provided in the QAPP and its attachments.

2.4.2 Ground Water Monitoring ProgramThe ground water monitoring program, consisting of

quarterly and semi-annual sampling events, was initiatedprior to conclusion of the construction phase of theproject. The semi-annual sampling events consists ofsampling the on-site monitoring wells for analysis of theTarget Compound List(TCL)/Target Analyte List (TAL) lesspesticides and PCB's (see Table 2), and the IndicatorParameters (see Table 3). The quarterly sampling event isfor the Indicator Parameters and, if necessary, anyconfirmatory analysis.

Water level measurements were taken quarterly for theinitial sampling year, and then taken in conjunction witheach sampling event after the first year of sampling wascompleted. Surface water level indicator gages, one in eachof the ponds and two in the river will also be read inconjunction with well water level measurements.

Semi-annual sampling consists of the parametersindicated above. In the quarters between the semi-annualevents, the well network is sampled for the IndicatorParameters. In addition, confirmatory sampling will takeplace during the quarter following the semi-annual samplingevent that revealed the presence of a parameter requiringsuch confirmatory sampling, (See Figure 9 for samplingschedule).

17

The semi-annual parameter list may be reduced to a listof site specific indicator parameters once a sufficientdatabase is established. Should ground water quality remainrelatively consistent over time, monitoring may not need tobe as extensive and may be reduced after review by the EPAand IDEM.

The procedures for sampling each of the ten wells usingEPA or IDEM protocols are summarized briefly as follows:

* The static water level in each well will bemeasured and recorded.

* Wells will be evacuated of three volumes ofwater or until the well goes dry. The purgewater will be contained in 55 gallon drums,with the final disposition of the purge waterselected upon the results of the monitoringevent.

* Conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen andtemperature will be measured and recorded inthe field for each of the samples.

* The samples will be stored in appropriatesample bottles provided by the analyticallaboratory. Samples requiring refrigerationfor preservation will be immediatelytransferred to coolers packed with ice or icepacks.

* Appropriate written documentation will beprepared for each sampled well. In addition,complete chain-of-custody information will bemaintained.

For more complete information regarding sampling procedures,refer to the Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP).

2.4.3 Surface Water Monitoring ProgramSurface water samples are collected from the on-site

pond, the off-site pond, the Mississinewa River, and Lugar

18

Creek (See Figure 8 for sampling locations). Samplingpoints on the river are located at three areas adjacent tothe landfill site, downstream at one location, and upstreamat one location to serve as background data. One samplingpoint is located along Lugar Creek, two from the on-sitepond, and two more from the off-site pond.

The Mississinewa River and Lugar Creek surface watersampling begins at the farthest downstream location andproceed to upstream locations to minimize potential cross-contamination from suspended material in the streamresulting from sampling activities. The Mississinewa Riversampling locations are positioned between mid-river and theleft shore (facing downstream) to reflect conditionsassociated with the landfill. The Lugar Creek samplinglocation is at the mid-channel position of the creek.Sample locations are identified in the field by a referencemarker on the nearby bank of shore.

Surface water samples are collected along with thesemi-annual round of ground water samples and are analyzedfor TCL/TAL - less pesticides and PCBs, and the IndicatorParameters. Confirmatory samples are taken during thequarter following the semi-annual sampling event thatrevealed the presence of a parameter requiring such aconfirmatory sampling. Metals analysis are conducted onboth unfiltered and filtered samples of surface watersamples. If, after a period of time, analysis of surfacewater indicates no analytes at levels of concern, thesampling program may be modified after EPA and IDEMapproval. Refer to sampling schedule in Figure 9.

2.4.4 Costs—Capital, Annual Sampling/ and MaintenanceThe capital costs for the well network are covered in

the construction contract. Costs for the annual samplingare estimated to be $170,000 and are broken down into costsfor each sampling event. Maintenance costs for themonitoring network and water level gages are estimated to bean additional $5,000/yr.

Total estimate for a Quarterly event = $10,560

Breakdown of estimated costs:

Quarterly events (2 events) $ 21,120Semi-annual events (2 events) $130.800Subtotal $151,920Contingency (approximately 10%) $ 15.190Total Estimate $167,110

(Use $170,000)

Post-closure maintenance of the ground water monitoringsystem includes a monthly inspection conducted in con-junction with the monthly facility inspection performed bythe City of Marion. Any necessary repair or maintenance ofthe wells is noted on the "Inspection Log" and the Groupnotified. Maintenance as well as any well replacement willthen performed by the Group. Maintenance of the wells willinclude:

* Replacement of protective casing locks* Repair of surface seal* Repair of well casings and/or well caps, as

necessary* Damage repairs* Repair of concrete pad around wells* Monitoring well replacement

Costs for the these repairs are estimated to be$5000/yr.

3.0 OTHER COSTSOther costs include those expenses not previously

considered in any other sections of this plan which will beincurred during the closure and post-closure period asfollows:

* Administrative Costs

Throughout the entire closure and post-closure period, a management plan of

21

sufficient magnitude to ensure that the workencompassed in this plan is carried out on aprofessional basis. This would require thatvarious levels of management direct theoperation of the plan and coordinate theefforts of all involved. To determine thecost of these expenses, an allocation oftime as it pertains to various levels ofmanagement necessary to perform this servicewas utilized.

Costs for these services are estimated to be$25,000/yr.

4 . 0 CONTINGENCYA 10% contingency has been incorporated into various

estimates included in this plan. We believe that this is areasonable estimate considering the large number of projectvariables which can affect the cost. The R. S. MeansCompany, a respected publisher of construction cost data,provides the following advice concerning contingencies:

"The contractor should consider inflationaryprice trends and possible material shortagesduring the course of the job. Theseescalation factors are dependent upon botheconomic conditions and the anticipated timebetween the estimate and actual construction.If drawings are not complete or approved or abudget cost is wanted, it is wise to add 5 to10 percent."

Means advises that a contingency of 10% is notunreasonable if a budget cost is desired. One of the goalsof the cost estimate is to allow for collection ofsufficient fees to fund all future activities at the site.The contingency also allows for changes to the plans whichmay be requested by the Agencies.

22

5.0 REPORTS AND RECORD KEEPINGThe City of Marion and the Group are responsible for

gathering the necessary information from the appropriatesources and generation of reports required by the agenciesto remain in compliance. Each is also responsible formaintaining records pertaining to maintenance at the site.It is noted that the depository for all site records isBeveridge & Diamond as written in the Consent Decree. Anannual report will be prepared by the both the City ofMarion and the Group for their respective areas ofresponsibility. The Group will also be responsible forsubmittal of a quarterly monitoring report.

6.0 HEALTH AND SAFETY PLANA health and safety plan has been established for the

operation and maintenance period. It is located in AppendixF in it's entirety. The plan which has been establishedconforms with the safety and health standards of the FederalDepartment of Labor, Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration and 29 CFR 1910.120 Safety and HealthStandards and Industrial Standards.

LANDFILL GAS MONITORING PROGRAM

APPENDIX E

LANDFILL GAS MONITORING PROGRAM

1.0 Overview of Site ConditionsMarion (Bragg) Landfill site is described in detail

in section 1 of this plan. See Figure 1 for the sitelocation and Figure 2 for the site diagram. The site isbordered by the Mississinewa river on the north and eastand by a pond on the south side. A small constructioncompany, which manufactures asphalt, currently occupiesland to the Southwest of the site.

The site has had a clay cap installed which isdescribed in section 2.3.1 of this plan. The currentsite condition is good with no apparent leachate seepsidentified or indications of stressed vegetation on thecap which may indicate gas migration through the cap.The site has no active utility services. Utilities whichwere present prior to cap construction were removedduring the cap construction.

1.1 Landfill Gas Monitoring ProgramThe landfill gas monitoring plan at the Marion

(Bragg) Landfill site consists of quarterly monitoring ofthe headspace in seven of the ten on-site monitoringwells and also in MW-7 located in the cemetery due westof the site. These seven wells are used becausehistorically there has been no screened interval abovethe water table in the remaining wells. The monitoringwill be performed during the quarterly ground watermonitoring events. The monitoring will consist ofchecking the headspace in wells MB-1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 10and MW-7 prior to determining ground water level readingswhich are taken during each quarterly ground watermonitoring event. The headspace will be checked using anexplosimeter calibrated to methane in air or an

equivalent standard to determine if combustible levels ofgas exceed 100% of the LEL. The purpose of themonitoring program is to detect any off-site migration ofcombustible landfill gases above these levels.

1.3 Monitoring ProceduresThe landfill gas monitoring program will take place

each quarter in conjunction with the quarterly groundwater monitoring event. As stated previously, the testlocations will be on-site monitoring wells MB-1 through3, MB-5, MB-7, MB-9, MB-10 and well MW-7 located in thecemetery to the west of the site.

Immediately prior to each survey event the MSA Model60 combustible gas indicator will be calibrated using theprocedures outlined in the manufacturer's manual. Priorto opening the monitoring wells used for the gas survey,the instrument will be checked to ensure that it is stilloperational and ready to be used. Each of the wellcovers is equipped with a rubber sanitary seal which willprevent any gases from escaping or moisture from enteringthe well casing. As soon as the well is opened, tubingconnected to the instrument sample inlet port will beplaced in the well casing and the reading taken as soonas the reading stabilizes. Since oxygen deficientatmospheres will cause the instrument to indicate lowerreadings than are actually present in the well, sampleswill not be taken inside the well casing at depthsgreater than four feet. Since the density of methane(0.554) is less than that of air (standard 1.0), theaccumulated gases inside the well casing should begin torise as the representative sample is taken. After thereading has stabilized, the date, time and concentrationwill be recorded in the field activity log being used torecord the ground water monitoring data. After the gasmonitoring has been completed, the ground water levelswill be taken and recorded. At monitoring locations

where erratic or unusual readings are recorded,additional readings will be taken. The well cover willbe replaced and another reading will be taken after 24hours to allow the gas time to accumulate in the wellcasing.

The results of this landfill gas monitoring programwill be documented in the field activity log book. Allcalibrations including the frequency of calibrations andthe time of calibrations will be performed as describedin manufacturer's instruction manuals and documented inthe field log book.

1.4 Contingency PlanDue to the remote location of the site, danger to

the general public from off-site migration of landfillgas is minimal. Should readings exceed 100% of the LELat any perimeter monitoring location, a report showingthe results and location of the readings will be made tothe EPA, IDEM, and local Fire Officials within 24 hours.Based on the location of any readings above these levelsand the results of further monitoring, a proposal will beprepared to identify the source area and methods toeliminate or contain any further migration of the gas.

1.0 SITE INFORMATIONThe landfill is believed to have started

operations in 1957 as a municipal landfill. Somerecords indicated that the site may have b*en usedfor waste disposal as early as 1949. During thelife of the landfill, both municipal and industrialwastes were accepted. The disposal operations cameto an end in October of 1975. In December 1983, thesite was added to the US EPA National PrioritiesList.

Presently the landfill is capped and vegetatedand does not presently appear to have any erosionproblems. Vegetation covering the landfill consistsof a mix of perennial and annual grasses.

1.1 Site BackgroundThe Marion (Bragg) Landfill site consists of a

72-acre parcel of land located on the southeast edgeof Marion, Grant County, Indiana (See Figure 1 forsite location). Approximately 45 of the site's 72acres were used for landfilling purposes prior toclosing in 1975.

The Mississinewa River borders the site to theeast and north, a cemetery borders it to the west,and an abandoned gravel pond, borders it to thesouth. A pond of approximately 15 acres lies nearthe center of the site. An asphalt/constructionbusiness, identified as Dobson Construction Companyis located along the southwest corner of the site,(See Figure 2 for site map).

2.0 SITE PERSONNEL RESPONSIBILITIESActivities at the site will consist of ground

water and surface water sampling and groundmaintenance which will be performed by the City ofMarion, the Group, and contractors to both. Therewill be no specific personnel assigned to the site.

However, all City of Marion personnel, Grouprepresentatives and contractors will conform withthe safety and health standards of the FederalDepartment of Labor, Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration and 29 CFR 1910.120 Safety and HealthStandards & Industrial Standards. It will be theresponsibility of the City of Marion and the Marion(Bragg) Group, to assure that their respectivecontractors, if applicable, and subcontractorsconform to these regulations.

3.0 PLANNED ACTIVITIES3.1 Monitoring

Monitoring of ground water and surface waterbegan in February 1990 and will continue throughoutthe O & M period, (thirty years). Refer to Figure 3for Sampling Schedule.

3.2 Grounds MaintenanceGrounds maintenance will begin after the

closure period is complete. Maintenance willinclude the following:

Grass mowing and fertilizationFence, gates, signs and locks repair orreplacementRepair of roadwaysCap repair to include flood protection system,unvegetated areas and erosion repairRip-rap areas

4.0 POTENTIAL HAZARDS4.1 Chemical

Potential chemical hazards will be contactedthrough sampling of ground water and surface water,replacing a fence pole, inspecting or repairing thecap at a leachate seep, use of fertilizers or when

repairing a deep cut into the cap. A list ofpotential chemical hazards is located in Figure 4.

4.2 PhysicalPossible physical hazards will be mainly

confined to those activities related to grounds andwell maintenance. Potential health and safetyhazards are located in Figure 5. However, potentialhazards are not limited to the ones listed in Figure5. Other unforeseen and unknown hazards may also bepresent.

4 . 3 Action LevelsAction levels have been established for

activity cessation, site evacuation, emergencyresponse, and the upgrade or downgrade in the levelof personal protective equipment. The followingchart summarizes action levels established for theO & M Period.

Action Levels Based onTotal Volatile Organic Vapor Concentrations*

Total VolatileOrganic Compounds (ppm) Level of Protection

Background level to 1 ppm Level D1 ppm to 10 ppm Level C (with half or

full face respirator)10 ppm to 50 ppm Level C (with full-

face respirator)> 50 ppm to SOOppm Level B

As measured in the breathing space.

The above action levels are based on theThreshold Limit Value (TLV) for 1,1-dichloroetheneas established in the revised OSHA permissibleexposure limit standard of 29 CFR Part 1910. OSHA

has adopted a 1 ppm PEL for 1,1-dichloroethene as atime-weighted average value for an eight-hour day,forty-hour work week. Action levels established inthe above table have been based on this exposurelimit for 1,1-dichloroethene and on the assignedprotection factors for half- and full-face airpurifying respirators.

Though benzene and vinyl chloride have beenfound to be present at the Marion (Bragg) Landfillsite, their concentrations are too low to be used inestablishing the above Action Levels.

Sampling for benzene and vinyl chloride will beperformed periodically during initial activities toensure these compounds are not present in thebreathing zone. Colorimetric indicator tubes willbe used to determine approximate airborneconcentrations of these compounds. Appropriatelevels of protection will be required if eithercompound is determined to be present in the worker'sbreathing space.

5.0 SITE HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTSA health and safety plan has been established

for the operation and maintenance period. Thehealth and safety plan which has been establishedconforms with the safety and health standards of theFederal Department of Labor, Occupational Safety andHealth Administration and 29 CFR 1910.120 Safety andHealth Standards and Industrial Standards.

All contractors, City of Marion personnel, andvisitors are required to read this Health and SafetyPlan and sign the sheet provided at the end of theHealth and Safety Plan stating that fact.Contractors and City personnel must also have intheir possession their own Health and Safety Plan oradopt this plan, and designate a health and safety

officer. If the City or their contractors adopttheir own plan it should meet the minimumrequirements of this plan. Visitors are required toabide by this Health and Safety Plan.

All contractors and City personnel are requiredto have hard hats, safety shoes, hearing and eyeprotection, life jackets or vests and shore lines,and fire fighting equipment (fire extinguishers)when performing activities that deem it necessary touse them or have them available for use. Refer toFigure 6 for anticipated personal protectiveequipment levels for site activities. Refer toAppendix A for a description of Levels B, C, and Dpersonal protective equipment.

5.1 Personnel TrainingAt a minimum all applicable employees must meet

the training requirements specified in 29 CFR1910.120 by having been trained in the areas listedbelow. Contractors and subcontractors mustacknowledge their compliance to the trainingrequirements by completing the form shown inAppendix B.

* Health and Safety Officer and Site ManagementResponsibilities - personnel must understandHealth Safety Officer (H & S Officer) and SiteManagement responsibilities and authority.

* Site-Specific Health and Safety Hazards -personnel must be informed of specific hazardsrelated to site and site operations.

A more detailed discussion of training requirementsis included in Appendix D.

6.0 EMERGENCY PROCEDURESEach subcontractor will be responsible for

assigning the duties of Health and Safety Officer (H& S Officer) to their own personnel. It will thenbe the duty of the H & S Officer to ensure thatappropriate procedures are followed if an on-siteemergency arises. The following standard procedureswill be used by on-site personnel. In the event ofan emergency, site personnel will signal distresswith three blasts from an appropriate horn (vehiclehorn, air horn, etc.)- Once the signal is heard allpersonnel will gather at the site entrance. Allappropriate authorities and the Group will then beimmediately notified of the nature and extent of theemergency.

6.1 Personal InjuryIn the event of an injury, appropriate first

aid should be initiated, and an immediate request

should be made for an ambulance (if necessary) andthe designated medical facility should be notified,(if required) . (Refer to Figures 7 and 8 foremergency phone numbers and a map showing the routeto the hospital, respectively).

6.2 Fire or ExplosionIn the event that a fire or an explosion occurs

at the site, the fire department should be notified.In the event that either of these requireevacuation, all personnel will meet at the mainaccess gate with an alternate location being eitherof the two man gates which provide access to theformer East Side Cove property. Refer to Figure 7for emergency phone numbers.

6.3 Incident Reporting ProcedureAdherence to this site-specific Health and

Safety Plan and any additional facility safety rulesand regulations will significantly reduce thelikelihood of personnel being exposed to substancesabove permissible exposure limits. However, in theevent an incident does occur, it is imperative thatspecific reporting procedures be followed so thatappropriate corrective action can be taken by theHealth and Safety (H & S) Officer and the ProjectManager. In addition to the incident reportingprocedures specified in the Consent Decree, thefollowing procedures will be implemented should anincident occur at the site. Upon notification of anincident, the H & S Officer will contact theappropriate technical personnel for recommendedmedical diagnosis, and if necessary, treatment. TheProject Manager and the H & S Officer willinvestigate facility/site conditions to determine:(1) whether and at what levels the incident actuallyoccurred, (2) the cause of the incident, and (3) themeans to prevent the incident from recurring.

exercise extreme caution during operation ofequipment and machinery to avoid physical injury tothemselves or others.

7 . 3 Bodies of WaterSpecial care and precautions must be taken when

working over or near bodies of water. The "BuddySystem" will be in effect. The following OSHAregulations, 29 CFR 1926.106, are to be followedwhen working over or near bodies of water where thedanger of drowning exists:

(a) Employees working over or near water, where thedanger of drowning exists, shall be providedwith U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jacket orbuoyant vests.

(b) Prior to and after each use, the buoyant workvest or life preservers shall be inspected fordefects which would alter their strength orbuoyancy. Defective units shall not be used.

(c) Ring buoys with at least 90 feet of line shallbe provided and readily available for emergencyrescue operations. Distance between ring buoysshall not exceed 200 feet.

(d) At least one life saving skiff shall beimmediately available at locations whereemployees are working over or adjacent towater.

Always be aware of your foot - and handholds. Whenentering water, a lifeline will be used, providingcontact with the person in the water and the personon the shore or connected to a stationary object(e.g., tree). The requirements will not apply ifthe depth of the water is less than 24 inches andthe H & S officer concurs.

7.4 Additional Safety PracticesThe following are important safety precautions

which will be enforced during this O & M period:

* Eating, drinking, chewing gum or tobacco,smoking, or any practice that increases theprobability of hand-to-mouth transfer andingestion of material is prohibited in any areadesignated as contaminated.

* Whenever decontamination procedures for outergarments are in effect, the entire body shouldbe thoroughly washed as soon as possible afterthe protective garment is removed.

* No excessive facial hair which interferes withthe effectiveness of a respirator will bepermitted on personnel required to wearrespiratory protection equipment. Therespirator must seal against the face so thatthe wearer receives air only through the airpurifying cartridges attached to therespirator. Fit testing shall be performedprior to respirator use to ensure a proper sealis obtained by the wearer.

* Contact with potentially contaminated surfacesshould be avoided whenever possible. Oneshould not walk through puddles, mud or otherdiscolored surfaces; kneel on ground; lean, sitor place equipment on drums, containers,vehicles or the ground without a protectivebarrier (e.g., visqueen).

* Medicine and alcohol can potentiate the effectfrom exposure to certain compounds. Personnelshould consult their physician regarding theuse of prescribed drugs while participating insite activities.

Personnel and equipment in the work areasshould be minimized, consistent with effectivesite operations.Work areas for various operational activitiesshould be established.Procedures for leaving the work area must beplanned and implemented prior to going to thesite. Work areas and decontaminationprocedures must be established on the basis ofprevailing site conditions.Respirators will be issued for the exclusiveuse of one worker and will be cleaned anddisinfected after each use by the worker.Safety gloves and boots shall be taped to thedisposable chemical-protective suits asnecessary.All unsafe equipment left unattended will beidentified by a "DANGER, DO NOT OPERATE" tag.Noise mufflers or ear plugs may be required forall site personnel working around heavyequipment. This requirement will be at thediscretion of the H & S Officer. Disposable,form-fitting plugs are preferred.Cartridges for air-purifying respirators in usewill be changed daily at a minimum.Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) andair-purifying respirators will be inspectedprior to usage at the site.

APPENDIX C

MEDICAL MONITORING

APPENDIX CMEDICAL MONITORING

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hasestablished requirements for a medical surveillance programdesigned to monitor and reduce health risks for employeespotentially exposed to hazardous materials (29 CFR 1910.120).This program has been designed to provide baseline medical datafor each employee involved in hazardous waste operationsincluding field activities, and to determine his/her ability towear personal protective equipment, such as chemical resistantclothing and respirators. Employees who wear or may wearrespiratory protection must be provided respirators asregulated by 29 CFR 1910.134. This Standard requires that anindividual's ability to wear respiratory protection bemedically certified before he/she performs designated duties.Where medical requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120 overlap those of29 CFR 1910.134, the most stringent of the two will beenforced.

The medical examinations must be administered on a pre-employment and annual basis and as warranted by symptoms ofexposure or specialized activities. These examinations shallbe provided by employers without cost or loss of pay to theemployee. For the purposes of this Health and Safety Plan, allsubcontractors shall assume the employer's responsibility inobtaining the necessary medical monitoring and training fortheir employees pursuant to this section of 29 CFR 1910.120.

The examining physician is required to make a report to theemployer of any medical condition which would place suchemployees at increased risk of wearing a respirator or otherpersonal protective equipment. Each employer engaged in sitework shall assume the responsibility of maintaining sitepersonnel medical records as regulated by 29 CFR 1910.120 whereapplicable. Exemption from the medical surveillance programmay be allowed by the Health and Safety Officer. Theseexemptions will be based on interpretation of the requirementsof 1910.120 relative to each individual exemption request.

All employees contracted to work at the site designated by thisPlan will be responsible to insure their employees havereceived the proper medical tests as regulated by 29 CFR1910.120 and shall provide the contractor with certification ofsame.

Only applies to intrusive and sampling activities.

APPENDIX D

PERSONNEL TRAINING

APPENDIX DPERSONNEL TRAINING

Site personnel associated with those field activities in whichthe potential for exposure to hazardous substances above thePEL exists will be required to participate in a health andsafety training program that complies with criteria set forthby OSHA as per interim final regulation 29 CFR 1910.120. Thisprogram will instruct employees on general health and safetyprinciples and procedures, proper operation of monitoringinstruments, and use of personal protective equipment.

In addition, site employees will undergo site-specific trainingprior to the start-up of any given project or task. Asactivities change at a particular site, related training willaddress potential hazards and associated risks, site operatingprocedures, emergency response and site control methods to beemployed.

Specialized training will be provided as dictated by the natureof site activities. Specialized training will be provided foractivities such as confined space entry, excavations andhandling of unidentified substances. Employees involved inthese types of activities will be given off-site instructionregarding the potential hazards involved with safety activitiesand the appropriate health and safety procedures to befollowed. Off-site instruction is meant to include any areawhere employees will not be exposed to site hazards.

Site personnel involved in the field activities will havereceived the appropriate basic training plus additionalspecific training where needed. This Health and Safety Planmust be distributed to all subcontractors prior to the start offield activities. A pre-operation meeting will be held todiscuss the contents of the Plan. Specialty training will beprovided as determined by task and responsibility. Alltraining of personnel will be conducted under directsupervision of a trained Health and Safety Officer.

Exemptions from training may be approved by the H & S Officer.
