1 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES DEPARTMENT: Environmental Health and Safety SUBJECT: CONFINED SPACE PROGRAM Original Date of Issue: 01/01/2009 Reviewed 01/09 04/09 01/ /2012 Revised 01/09 01/ /2012 PURPOSE: To establish safe working practices for entering and working in confined spaces. SCOPE: Applies to all employees, contractors, or other individuals whose job duties require them to work directly in confined spaces. POLICY: People who enter confined spaces face increased risk of exposure to serious physical injury from hazards such as entrapment, engulfment, and hazardous atmospheric conditions. Therefore, strict adherence to this policy is required. DEFINITIONS: Confined Space: A space that is large enough and so configured that a person can bodily enter and perform assigned work and has limited or restricted means of entry and exit and is not designed for continuous occupancy. Examples of confined spaces include: manholes, storage tanks, sub-cellars, bins, boilers, septic tanks, sewers, utility tunnels, chimneys, ducts, and wells. A confined space can also be open topped, especially if it is four feet or more in depth
2 Permit Required Confined Space: A confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics: Contains, or has the potential to contain, a hazardous atmosphere; Contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an entrant; Has an internal layout such that someone entering could be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or a floor that slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross section; Contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard, for example, asbestos or noise. Non-Permit Required Confined Space: A confined space which is completely free of hazards and can be so proven without entering the space. The entrant must be a qualified person and would be able to work alone with no safety attendant required. Confined Space Rescue Team A confined space rescue team is only needed to be on stand by when a non-entry recuse cannot be performed by attendant because the entrant has untethered from tripod line. A confined space rescue team shall be on-site when there is an IDLH condition But Initial air monitoring or continuous monitoring shows that there in an immediate dangerous to life and health (IDLH) FOC will never go into a confined space where there is an IDLH condition. Confined space meters alarm before IDLH conditions are met. If needed FOC will enter into a contract with a confined space rescue team company and notify that company of entries where the contracted service will be needed. NOTE: A confined space can only be designated a non-permit required confined space by the Department of Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S). Confined Space Qualified Person: A confined space qualified person is an employee who has had confined space training and is familiar with: Recognition of hazards associated with entry into confined spaces; Procedures for use of entry permits; Atmospheric testing techniques and methods; Interpretation of atmospheric test results; Ventilation methods and equipment; Use of personal protective equipment; Safe work practices; Rescue techniques and equipment; Use of respirators. PROCEDURE: I. Identification of Confined Spaces 1. The Department of Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) shall assist departments with identifying all permit required confined spaces in their area
3 2. Departments are responsible for posting signs approved by EH&S on all permit required confined spaces. For example a sign reading Danger Confined Space Permit Required, Do Not Enter. II. Entry Pre-Requisites 1. Supervisors who authorize employees to work in confined spaces must be confined space qualified. 2. Only confined space qualified entrants may enter a permit required confined space. III. Pre-Entry Procedures 1. Employees whose work requires them to enter a confined space must notify their supervisor to obtain a confined space permit and specific instructions prior to entering. 2. The Supervisor must: Obtain a Confined Space Entry Permit (Appendix A) and provide all required information, including estimated entry time(s). Contact the EH&S at for authorization and to establish entry requirements. Arrange for all "Special Requirements" and environmental testing as specified on the permit. "Special Requirements" include, but are not limited to: o Lock Out/Tag Out, including blank, cap, purge, flush or vent lines o Lifelines, harness, emergency tripod, etc. o Lighting and ventilation o Respirators, breathing apparatus, PPE, etc. o Posting and securing access to the confined space as necessary o Fire extinguishers o Hot Work Permit Review entry requirements with entrants and attendants. Ensure that all "Special Requirements" are appropriately completed, provided, and in place, as required. 3. Before a permit required confined space is entered, the atmosphere in the area must be tested for oxygen levels, flammable gases and vapors, contaminants, and physical hazards such as noise, temperature extremes, engulfment and other serious safety or health hazards and tested periodically thereafter. Initial and periodic testing shall be performed by authorized entrant, attendant or entry supervisor. Subsequent testing may be done by other qualified personnel. Atmospheric conditions are considered unacceptable if: o Oxygen levels are less than 19.5% or greater than 23.5%. o Flammable gas or vapor is at a concentration greater than 10% of its lower explosive limit (LEL). o Airborne combustible dust at a concentration that obscures vision at a distance of five feet or less. o Atmospheric concentration of a substance is greater than the OSHA Permissible Exposure Level (PEL) or ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV) established for that substance. If test results show that the atmospheric conditions in the confined space are unacceptable, entry into that area will be prohibited or discontinued by the EH&S or the entry supervisor until conditions are brought into acceptable limits. A copy of the completed permit must be supplied to EH&S
4 IV. Entry Requirements for Entry Supervisor Authorized Entrants and Attendants 1. Confined space entry supervisor must ensure that all "Special Requirements" have been provided and established and that environmental testing results are acceptable. In addition, the entrant must: Know the hazards that may be faced during entry, including information on the mode, signs or symptoms, and consequences of the exposure Properly use equipment as required, stay tethered to life line and tripod. Communicate with the attendant as necessary to enable the attendant to monitor entrant status and to enable the attendant to alert entrants of the need to evacuate the space as required Alert the attendant whenever: o the entrant recognizes any warning sign or symptom of o exposure to a dangerous situation o the entrant detects a prohibited condition o stay tethered to life line at all times o if entrant has to untether from life line notify the attendant so the attendant can notify rescue team, this should be discussed before entry to ensure contracted confined space rescue team is on stand-by. Exit from the permit space as quickly as possible whenever o an order to evacuate is given by the attendant or the entry o supervisor o the entrant recognizes any warning sign or symptom of o exposure to a dangerous situation o the entrant detects a prohibited condition o or an evacuation alarm is activated 2. Duties of Attendants. The employer shall ensure that each attendant: Knows the hazards that may be faced during entry, including information on the mode, signs or symptoms, and consequences of the exposure Is aware of possible behavioral effects of hazard exposure in authorized entrants Continuously maintains an accurate count of authorized entrants in the permit space and ensures that the means used to identify authorized entrants accurately identifies who is in the permit space Remains outside the permit space during entry operations until relieved by another attendant Communicates with authorized entrants as necessary to monitor entrant status and to alert entrants of the need to evacuate the space Monitors activities inside and outside the space to determine if it is safe for entrants to remain in the space and orders the authorized entrants to evacuate the permit space immediately under an of the following conditions: o If the attendant detects a prohibited condition o If the attendant detects the behavioral effects of hazard exposure in an authorized entrant o If the attendant detects a situation outside the space that could endanger the authorized entrants o If the attendant cannot effectively and safely perform all the duties required - 4 -
5 Assist with non entry rescue by winching in entrant when needed and/or summon rescue and other emergency services as soon as the Attendant determines that authorized entrants any need assistance to escape from permit space hazards Takes the following actions when unauthorized persons approach or enter a permit space while entry is underway: o Warn the unauthorized persons that they must stay away from the permit space o Advise the unauthorized persons that they must exit immediately if they have entered the permit space o Inform the authorized entrants and the entry supervisor if unauthorized persons have entered the permit space Assist in non-entry rescues by winching entrants Performs no duties that might interfere with the attendant s primary duty to monitor and protect the authorized entrants 3. Duties of Entry Supervisors. The employer shall ensure that each entry supervisor: Knows the hazards that may be faced during entry, including information on the mode, signs or symptoms, and consequences of the exposure Verifies, by checking that the appropriate entries have been made on the permit, that all tests specified by the permit have been conducted and that all procedures and equipment specified by the permit are in place before endorsing the permit and allowing entry to begin Terminates the entry and cancels the permit as required Verifies that rescue services are available and that the means for summoning them are operable Removes unauthorized individuals who enter or who attempt to enter the permit space during entry operations Determines whenever responsibility for a permit space entry operation is transferred and at intervals dictated by the hazards and operations performed within the space, that entry operations remain consistent with terms of the entry permit and that acceptable entry conditions are maintained. 4. The completed entry requirement permit must be provided to EH&S for review and approval. A new permit is required and shall be issued for each eight hour shift. Any modifications to the permit must be reviewed and approved by EH&S. NOTE: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS THE ATTENDANT TO ENTER THE CONFINED SPACE UNLESS THEY ARE EQUIPPED FOR EMERGENCY RESCUE AND THERE IS A QUALIFIED PERSON TO TAKE THEIR PLACE AS ATTENDANT. V.
