3.3.2 Sign Placement
Remediation of Soils and Dry Sediments at RVAAP 08-11 (LLs 1-4)
Page 3-9
Shaw utilized signs and barricades to effectively communicate safety requirements, identify
hazardous areas, and provide traffic directions to key locations at the RVAAP. Shaw placed
these signs and barricades in visible locations and updated and maintained them as necessary.
3.2.2.1 Safety Signs
Safety signs were placed at the entrances to the hazardous work areas and identified the physical
hazards of concern and the required personal protective equipment (PPE) and training needed to
enter each area.
3.2.2.2 Traffic Control Signs
Signs were placed along the traffic routes and at each load line for vehicles and heavy equipment
entering and exiting to ensure that traffic flowed without impedance.
3.3.3 Site Security
Once mobilization began, site security was established and coordinated with the RVAAP
security and RVAAP operating contractor, PIKA, at Post 1 in accordance with Section 11.0 of
the Shaw Project Coordination Plan (PCP) (Shaw 2006a). Site security was required for the
protection of the general public and site workers, as well as for the security of site equipment and
materials.
Shaw was required to submit a roster of all personnel and subcontractors who were working at
the RVAAP to PIKA at least one week in advance. This roster was maintained and updated as
necessary. Any person required to work within an AOC at the RVAAP was required to provide
adequate identification and training documentation to include the following:
• Government-issued drivers license, passport, etc.
• 40-Hour Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazardous Waste
Operations (HAZWOPER)Training
• Current 8-Hour annual OSHA HAZWOPER Refresher Training
In accordance with the Security, Emergency Response and Contingency Plan (SERCP)
(Shaw 2004f), Shaw marked all work areas with one or more of the following items:
high-visibility fence, roping, caution tape, signage, or temporary construction fencing.
Appropriate warning signs were posted throughout the site to enhance pedestrian and driver
safety in the work area and to help establish both controlled zones and site hazards as discussed
in the RAWP (Shaw 2007b).
3.3.4 Erosion and Sediment Control
In accordance with the SWPPP (Shaw 2007c), E&S controls were installed prior to activities that
had the potential to disturb soils and cause erosion. These controls were maintained throughout
the duration of the excavation and restoration activities. Surface water was collected or diverted
away from excavations by grading, berming, silt fence, hay bales or pumping. The E&S controls
