1 (Compliance Audit) Section (c) General Requirements 1) Has the employer performed a workplace inspection to determine if there are Yes No NA permit-required confined spaces (PRCS) present? 2) If the workplace has PRCS, has the employer informed affected employees Yes No NA of their location by posting danger signs at each PRCS location? 3) If local employees will not enter PRCS, has the employer taken effective Yes No NA measures to prevent unauthorized entry? 4) If local employees will enter PRCS, has the employer developed and Yes No NA implemented a written PRCS program that complies with the requirements of the standard? NOTE: The employer may use the PRCS "alternate procedures" below provided the employer can demonstrate that the ONLY hazard posed by a permit space is an actual or potential hazardous atmosphere and that forced-air ventilation ALONE is sufficient to maintain the space safe for entry. If qualified to use the alternate procedures, the employer is relieved of complying with paragraphs (d) through (f) and (h) through (k) respectively. 5) Has the employer developed monitoring data that demonstrates that forced-air Yes No NA ventilation ALONE will render a space safe for entry? 6) If initial entry is necessary in order to obtain the monitoring data required by Yes No NA item (5) above, is such entry performed in full compliance with the standard? 7) Is the monitoring data documented and made available to affected employees Yes No NA or to their authorized representatives? Alternate Entry Procedures 8) Is any condition making it unsafe to remove an entrance cover eliminated before Yes No NA the cover is removed? 9) When an entrance cover is removed, is the opening guarded by a temporary Yes No NA barrier to prevent an accidental fall through the opening and to prevent foreign objects from entering the space? 10) Before entry, is the atmosphere in PRECIS tested with a direct-reading, Yes No NA calibrated instrument in the following order? (a) Oxygen (b) Flammable gases and vapors (c) Toxic air contaminants 11) Are entrants who enter the space, or their authorized representatives, Yes No NA provided with an opportunity to observe the pre-entry testing? 12) There may be no hazardous atmosphere within the space whenever an Yes No NA entrant is in the space? 13) Entrants may not enter the space until forced-air ventilation has eliminated Yes No NA any hazardous atmosphere? 14) Forced-air ventilation is directed to the immediate area where an entrant is or Yes No NA will be? 15) The air supply for forced-air ventilation is from a clean source? Yes No NA 16) The space atmosphere is periodically tested to ensure a safe environment and Yes No NA entrants or their authorized representatives are provided with an opportunity to observe the testing?

Permit Space Reevaluation 18) When there are significant changes in the use or configuration of a non-permit Yes No NA space, is that space reevaluated and, if necessary, reclassified as a permit space? NOTE: The employer may reclassify a permit space to a non-permit space if the space poses no actual or potential hazardous atmosphere, and if all hazards within the space can be eliminated or controlled without entry. 19) If entry is necessary in order to eliminate hazards, is the entry performed in full Yes No NA compliance with the standard? NOTE: The use of forced-air ventilation to CONTROL the atmosphere does not constitute ELIMINATION of the hazard(s). 20) Does the employer certify in writing the basis for determining that all hazards in Yes No NA the space have been eliminated? 21) Does the written certification contain the date, space location, and name of the Yes No NA person making the determination? 22) Is the written certification made available to entrants or to their authorized Yes No NA representatives? 23) If hazards arise within a space that is classified non-permit, does the employer Yes No NA reevaluate the space to determine if the space should be classified a PRCS?
