INTRODUCTION Safety is very important to all of the Companies that are a part of Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (Company). It is important that all Contractors understand how each task is to be done in a safe manner and that Contractors, who are unsure, STOP AND ASK before they begin work. Contractor safety, along with the safety of the Contractors personnel and subcontractors can be accomplished only through the Contractors and Companys committed efforts to safety. PURPOSE
The Contractor Environmental, Health & Safety Reference Handbook has been prepared to provide Contractor personnel with a quick reference of environmental, health and safety requirements that are generally applicable throughout Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P.

COMPANY CONTRACTS
Each Contractors Contract with the Company controls the Contractors legal obligations. The provisions in this Handbook may supplement the provisions in the Contract between the Contractor and the Company. In the event of a conflict between the Contract and the general guidelines in this Handbook, the Contract between the Contractor and the Company will govern the interpretation of the Contractors responsibilities to the Company.

SITE-SPECIFIC SAFETY REQUIREMENTS In addition to the guidelines in this Handbook, applicable Local, State and/or Federal rules and regulations, and the Contractual requirements, there may also be site-specific safety requirements the Contractor shall follow to perform the work safely. If work is occurring at an operating facility, that facilitys safety standard shall be determined and followed. In addition, if work is being conducted on a DOT asset and is deemed to be a Covered Task, the Contractor must have qualified personnel perform the task. Contractors are responsible for determining if there are site-specific safety requirements and complying with them. SAFETY IS A CONDITION OF THE CONTRACT
Your safety is not an option. The failure of any Contractor to perform work in a safe manner is grounds for termination.

NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST AND NOT LEGAL ADVICE

Although this Handbook contains a variety of useful safety information to help increase the Contractors awareness of safety practices, it is not an exhaustive list of all safety requirements that may be required to perform the work safely. Each Contractor shall determine the safety requirements for his or her particular work.

It is not appropriate to take the position that if it is not in the Handbook, then it must not apply to the Contractors work. This Handbook is also not intended to serve as legal advice on the interpretation of statutes or regulations and shall not be relied on by the Contractor for that purpose. POLICY
Contractors are responsible for their own health and safety programs and shall abide by the applicable Local, State and/or Federal rules and regulations, including applicable Company policies and procedures as stated in the Contract between the Contractor and the Company. The management personnel working for the Contractor (Contractor Supervision) shall ensure that all personnel working for the contractor, including sub-contractors, are informed of and understand all Environmental, Health and Safety rules, precautions and requirements pertaining to the work and shall ensure they operate in compliance with such requirements.

SAFETY RULES

The construction environment includes heavy equipment operation, moving vehicles, welding operations, side booms, cranes, excavations, elevated platforms, tie-ins, dust, mud, etc. All of these conditions provide potential hazards to personnel. Horseplay on the job shall not be tolerated. Keep safety devices operative.

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK Possession of firearms or other weapons is prohibited. Stay clear of suspended loads and overhead power lines. Store and label materials properly.

SAFETY MEETINGS

Contractor Supervision and Company Inspectors or Representatives shall conduct and document regularly scheduled meetings (e.g., daily tailgate meetings, weekly or monthly safety meetings, etc.) Note: The frequency of the meetings may vary depending on the scope of the work and contract terms. These meetings provide a forum for the Company and the Contractor to discuss site-specific safety hazards, safety issues and methods of improving safety. Attendance at the meetings is mandatory unless the Contractor Supervision, Company Inspector or Company Representative gives prior approval. Attendance must be documented and a copy provided to the Company Inspector or Company Representative.

"STOP WORK GUIDELINES

Stop Work Orders are issued when Contractor Safety nonconformance could result in a potential fire or explosion, toxic release, personnel injury or death. All personnel at the work site are authorized to issue a Stop Work Order. The work in progress is placed in a safe stop condition until the Stop Work Order is released. Company Supervision and contract personnel are advised immediately of all Stop Work Orders. Stop Work Orders are released by the Company originator when corrective actions have been completed. The Area Safety Representative (SR) will perform random, documented on-site Contractor Inspections annually using the Contractor Inspection Checklist. The SR will immediately stop work, document and discuss with the Contractors Representative any observed condition that could be Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) and develop a remedial plan for each of these deficiencies using the Work Site Inspection Action Log that is located in the Contractor Inspection Checklist. The SR will require the Contractor to produce a remedial action plan for all remaining deficiencies using the Work Site Inspection Action Log that is located in the Contractor Inspection Checklist within 10 days of discovery. Lastly, the SR will forward inspection findings and remedial action plans per distribution list on Work Site Inspection Action Log that is located in the Contractor Inspection Checklist within 10 days of completion. Contractors with substantially deficient conditions will be removed from the Preferred Contractor List until corrective action has occurred.

BARRICADES AND TRAFFIC CONTROL

Anyone who makes an excavation, hole or opening is responsible for having it barricaded. Barricades are required around most excavations, holes or openings in floor or roof areas, edges of roofs and elevated platforms, around certain types of overhead work, pipeline excavations, hazardous areas where ignition sources could cause an explosion or fire, and wherever necessary to warn people against falling in, through or off. Barricades and/or guard services shall be employed in highly populated areas, school grounds, residential areas, etc., to keep people out of excavations and off equipment, pipeline or materials.

ERECTION OF BARRICADES
Barricades shall be 42 inches high and encompass the area of concern. Erect barricades before the hole is cut and extend them as the excavation progresses. Numerous excavations in one area may be barricaded effectively by erecting a barricade around the general area. Blinking lights shall be used on roadblocks and other pathways after dark.

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK Leave an entrance, opening or gate where practical.

TYPES WARNING - Calls attention to a hazard but offers no physical protection. Example: Yellow synthetic tape on galvanized stands or posts. PROTECTIVE - Warn as well as provide physical protection from falling. Example: Wood post and rail, fencing, chain and/or cable. HOLE COVERS
All holes or openings through floors or decking at all elevations shall be secured with hole covers or barricades immediately. Do not store material or equipment on a hole cover.

TRAFFIC CONTROL
Construction areas shall be posted with legible traffic signs at points of hazard. Personnel in roadways shall wear reflective vests to heighten their visibility while in hazard areas. All traffic control signs or devices used for protection of construction workers shall conform to and be set up according to American National Standards Institute D6.1-1988, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways.

FLAGGING
When operations are such that signs, signals and barricades do not provide the necessary protection on or adjacent to a highway or street, certified flaggers or other appropriate traffic controls shall be provided. Signaling directions by flaggers shall conform to American National Standards Institute (ANSI) D6.1-9 (most recent edition) Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways. Poorly maintained, defaced, damaged or dirty construction signs are ineffective and shall be replaced, repaired or cleaned without delay. All personnel engaged in the practice of flagging shall be dressed as follows to promote high visibility when approached by oncoming motorists:

High visibility vest Warning garments worn at night shall be of reflective material Stop and Slow sign paddles designed in accordance with ANSI D6.1 (most recent edition)
When hand signaling is done in periods of darkness, the sign paddles must be reflective or illuminated.

BLINDING OF PIPING AND EQUIPMENT

A blind is a metal plate that is bolted to the end of a pipe or is inserted between gasket pipe flanges to prevent the flow of gas or liquid in either direction. A blind shall be of sufficient rating strength to withstand the pressure to which it may be subjected. Blind spacers, commonly called spectacles, incorporate both a blind and a spacer and are frequently installed in a flange as a permanent part of the line. The blind spacer is manually rotated from one side to the other depending upon whether flow is to be permitted or prohibited.

BLINDING PROCEDURES
The installation and/or removal of blinds shall be performed by or at the direction of the Company Representative. Blinds shall be installed on or in all piping connected to vessels or equipment scheduled for entry or hot work. Blinds shall be near the vessel preferably on the first flange from the vessel shell. NOTE: In these instances where a blind cannot be installed near the vessel, it may be necessary to plug the inside of the vessel after the blind is installed. In some instances, a valve, spool piece or other device may be removed from the line and a blind flange installed on the line and the vessel. A blind list shall be maintained. This list includes the size, location and date of installation and removal of any blind. The authorized person shall consult the blind list to ensure that all blinds have been removed/returned prior to start-up. Failure to remove all blinds can lead to over-pressurization or other hazardous conditions.

COLOR CODING AND SIGNS

Color coding is a visual reminder system to warn, inform and guide personnel. OSHA assigns specific meaning to certain colors. Colors can be a warning of a particular hazard or give information or directions. These colors usually indicate the following:

Danger - Red, predominantly red, with lettering or symbols in a contrasting color Caution - Yellow, or predominantly yellow, with lettering or symbols in a contrasting color Warning - Orange, or predominantly orange, with lettering or symbols in a contrasting color Biological Hazard - Fluorescent orange or orange-red, or predominantly so, with lettering or symbols in a contrasting color
Instructional Green background with white lettering All signs giving instructions must be followed.

COMPRESSED CYLINDERS STORAGE AND USE

All cylinders must be stored in an upright position or in accordance with manufacturer instructions and Department of Transportation standards and secured to prevent tipping. Valves are to be closed and safety caps are to be in place. Oxygen and acetylene cylinders shall not be stored together except in approved carts. Label empty cylinders "Empty." Do not use grease or oil on oxygen valves, fittings, etc. Valve protector caps shall be installed on all cylinders when being transported. Do not lift cylinders by the cap. For short distance moving, a cylinder may be rolled on its bottom edge but never dragged. Always check a cylinders markings to be sure it contains the correct type of material for the job. Know how and when a substance should be used. Do not tamper with or bypass any safety devices; report all defects to your supervisor. When checking cylinder gauges or opening cylinder valves, stand off to one side to lessen your risk that an exploding object might hit you. All cylinders shall be secured when being transported or stored. Acetylene cylinders shall be stored upright when being transported or stored. All cylinders must have an up-to-date hydrostatic test in accordance with Department of Transportation regulations. Leaking cylinders should be immediately reported to a supervisor. Cylinders shall not be taken into confined spaces.

Cylinders shall not be permitted to rest on surfaces that permits moisture to accumulate between the cylinder base and the surface on which it rests. CONFINED SPACE
Confined Space means any space that:

Is large enough and so configured that a person can bodily enter and perform assigned work; and Has limited or restricted means for entry or exit; and Is not designated for continuous personnel occupancy.

Hazard identification, hazard control and atmospheric monitoring are the three mandatory components that precede confined space entry. Do not enter a confined space that has contained, or may contain, a hazardous atmosphere, unless it has been proven safe. A comprehensive work plan shall be made and followed prior to and during entry into a permit space. Entry into a "Permit" confined space, as defined by OSHA, shall be authorized by the issuance of a written permit signed by the supervision in charge and will be conducted in accordance with OSHA regulations. Permit-required confined space (permit space) means a confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics:

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK

3.02ADM001

Page 8 of 26

Contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere; "Hazardous atmosphere" means an atmosphere that may expose personnel to the risk of death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue (that is, escape unaided from a permit space), injury or acute illness from one or more of the following causes:
Flammable gas, vapor or mist in excess of 10 percent of its lower flammable limit (LFL); Airborne combustible dust at a concentrate that meets or exceeds its LFL; Note: This concentration may be approximated as a condition in which the dust obscures vision at a distance of 5 feet (1.52 m) or less.

Atmosphere oxygen concentration below 19.5 percent or above 23.5 percent; Atmosphere concentration of any substance for which a dose or a permissible exposure limit is published in Subpart G, Occupational Health and Environmental Control, or in Subpart Z, Toxic and Hazardous Substances, of this Part and that could result in personnel exposure in excess of its dose or permissible exposure limit; Note: An atmospheric concentration of any substance that is not capable of causing death, incapacitation, impairment of ability to self-rescue, injury, or acute illness due to its health effects is not covered by this provision.

Any other atmospheric condition that is Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH).

Contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an entrant; Has an internal configuration such that an entrant could be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or by a floor which slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross-section; or Contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard (e.g. moving parts, moving machinery, electricity, etc.).
Before a person enters a confined space, atmospheric tests for oxygen deficiency and any potentially dangerous air contaminants shall be made with approved and calibrated devices. A written record of all atmospheric testing shall be recorded on the entry permit and kept at the work site for the duration of the work. Confined spaces shall be emptied, flushed or cleared of hazardous substances before entry. Disconnect or block off lines that may contain hazardous substances to prevent these substances from entering the workspace while work is in progress. Attach a warning tag and lock, if possible, to the line or system to notify workers that it shall remain out of service until the responsible person removes or authorizes the removal of the tag and lock. Follow lockout/tagout procedures as required. Personnel entering or working inside a confined space shall use appropriate respiratory protection whenever the breathing atmosphere cannot be rendered safe through implementation of feasible engineering/administrative controls (e.g. mechanical ventilation, purging, use of nontoxic products, etc.). Ensure that the proper safety equipment is available and used for entry and rescue. This may include safety lights, communication equipment, respiratory equipment, retrieval device, safety harness and lifeline, first aid equipment, fire extinguishers, etc. An attendant must remain outside of the permit space during entry operations until relieved by another qualified attendant. Ensure emergency rescue services are in place. Confined space entry must be concluded with entrant debriefing.

GENERAL
Electrical vault rooms are not to be used for storage. Only authorized personnel shall work in electrical panels, alter existing wiring or install electrical wiring. No fuse may be installed in an electrical circuit that carries more amperage than the rating of the wiring for the circuit. For purposes of this manual, any systems operating at voltages above 480 volts shall be considered high voltage systems. All 120-volt, single-phase 15 and 20-ampere receptacle outlets on construction sites must have approved ground-fault circuit interrupters, if the outlets are used by personnel and are not part of the permanent wiring of the building. Keep access to disconnects, panels and junction boxes clear. Know the locations of disconnects. Insulated gloves, rubber soles and/or protective coverings should be used where necessary while repairing or installing electrical circuits. These devices must be maintained in accordance with manufacturers recommendations and regulatory requirements. No electrical panel, switch or wiring shall be left open without protection. Workers shall red-tag, close and/or seal these items when not working in the immediate vicinity. Move flammable materials away from electrical heat sources and lights. Use approved C or ABC rated fire extinguishers for electrical fires. Never use water. The Companys Representative, location supervision, Contractor Supervision and all other affected personnel shall be notified when a lockout/tagout condition exists in their work areas. Report all unsafe conditions such as the following to your supervision and/or the Company Inspector or Representative:

Shocking, sparking, overheating or smoking machinery Corroded outlets, switches and junction boxes Extension cords in permanent use Exposed wiring, broken plugs or outlets, missing box covers or faceplates
Outlets in damp areas without ground fault circuit interrupt devices When adjusting, lubricating, moving or cleaning electrical equipment, always disconnect it from the electric outlet or circuits. Equipment being serviced or under testing shall be properly locked and tagged. Do not work alone. Whenever working where electrical hazards exist, always maintain communication with fellow personnel. Personnel must use a GFCI (ground fault circuit indicator) when cords are used or an assured electric grounding program in effect. Daily documentation must be maintained.

FIRE PROTECTION AND PREVENTION

Contractors shall be responsible for developing and maintaining an effective fire protection and prevention program at the job site throughout all phases of construction and maintenance. Contractors shall become familiar with the classified area designations and requirements within the working area and shall incorporate this information into the safety program including the following:

are not allowed within a classified area without a work permit.

Contractors required to perform hot work on or near facilities where flammable gas mixtures may exist shall supply a calibrated combustible gas indicator approved for use in Class I atmospheres and shall perform atmospheric tests to ensure that flammable vapors are not present. (Note: A hot work permit is required). Contract personnel required to perform atmospheric tests shall be knowledgeable in the use of such combustible gas detectors and perform calibration checks before each use. When performing hot work where flammable gas mixtures may exist, an adequate number of 20 or 30 lb. dry chemical fire extinguishers (tested and inspected) must be located on the upwind side of the work. A qualified individual (firewatch) must attend each fire extinguisher upwind from the hot work until all work is finished. When applicable, a firewatch should remain in the area for at least 30 minutes after the welding and cutting operations are done to detect and extinguish smoldering fires. Hot work signs must be attached to unattended completed work that has not cooled enough to be safe to touch. Contractor must supply fire extinguishers for hot work. All fires must be reported to Company personnel.

FLAMMABLE AND COMBUSTIBLE LIQUIDS HANDLING AND STORAGE OF FLAMMABLE AND COMBUSTIBLE LIQUIDS
Use only approved containers that are properly labeled. Keep flammable/combustible liquids away from fire and sparks. Flammable or combustible liquids shall be stored in approved locations only. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Use available fans, hoods and ventilation equipment that are properly rated for the hazardous location classification. Do not mix chemicals unless instructions call for mixing. Use bonding wires to prevent static electricity while transferring flammable liquids from one container to another. Both containers should be bonded together and have at least one ground wire. Approved hazardous material transfer pumps or self-closing spigots shall be used for dispensing flammable liquids.

HAZARDOUS MATERIAL SAFETY AND SPILL CONTROL

All chemicals used by Contractors shall be listed and shall be accompanied by a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). This list shall be given to the Companys Inspector or Representative. The Companys Inspector or Representative shall inform the Contractor Supervision of the location and accessibility of the Companys MSDSs. All containers shall be labeled with contents and appropriate hazard warning(s). At no time shall improperly labeled containers be used. Particularly hazardous materials (e.g., radioactive, extremely toxic, noxious, explosive or highly reactive chemicals) shall always be brought to the attention of the Companys Inspector or Representative prior to use on Company property. Hazardous materials, chemicals, fuels, lubricating oils, etc. shall be properly handled, stored and disposed of as directed by Companys Inspector or Representative. All personnel involved with a response to an uncontrolled release of hazardous substances shall be trained to the hazardous material technician level under OSHA HAZWOPER response criteria (refer to 29 CFR 19 10.120).

The crane operator shall not operate the crane until persons involved in the operation have been instructed as to the work to be performed. All personnel involved in hoisting and crane operation shall wear the appropriate personal protective equipment, e.g. hard hats. Personnel shall be clear of loads before the loads are picked up or landed and shall remain clear at all times. Personnel shall not stand/pass under suspended loads. The use of a crane or derrick to hoist personnel on a personnel platform is prohibited, except when the erection, use and dismantling of conventional means of reaching the worksite, such as a personnel hoist, ladder, stairway, aerial lift, elevating work platform or scaffold, would be more hazardous, or when it is not possible because of structural design or worksite conditions. The use of personnel platforms shall comply with the OSHA requirements specified in 29 CFR 1926, Section (g). Slings, fittings and fastenings, when in use, shall be inspected daily. Slings found to be damaged or defective shall be removed from service and destroyed. Chains used for lifting shall be approved with documentation tags attached. Never exceed the rated capacity of the crane. Flag off the counter weight swing radius of the crane. Fully extend outriggers, where provided. Check the operation of the controls before making the first pick. Replace any cable that has been kinked or has visible damage. Replace cables if the wear on outer wires is 25% of the wire diameter or if three wires are broken in one strand or six wires in one lay. Never use a boom with bent cord members. Do not stand in the boom lattice or under the boom when disassembling or assembling the boom. Ensure that the automatic boom hoist kickouts are operational and positive boom stops are correctly installed. Ensure crane is equipped with anti-two block where required. Ensure the operating ground base is stable and level. Designate one person as the signal person prior to any picks being made. Check and maintain the required clearances from power lines. Except where electrical distribution and transmission lines have been de-energized and visibly grounded at point of work or where insulating barriers, not a part of or an attachment to the equipment or machinery, have been erected to prevent physical contact with the lines, equipment or machines shall be operated proximate to power lines only in accordance with the following:

For lines rated 50 kV or below, minimum clearance between the lines and any part of the crane or load shall be 10 feet. For lines rated over 50 kV, minimum clearance between the line and any part of the crane or load shall be 10 feet plus 4 inches for each 10kV above 50kV, or twice the length of the line insulator, but never less than 10 feet. In transit with no load and boom lowered, the equipment clearance shall be a minimum of 4 feet for voltages less than 50 kV and 10 feet for voltages over 50 kV, up to and including 345 kV, and 16 feet for voltages up to and including 750 kV. A person shall be designated to observe clearance of the equipment and give timely warning for all operations where it is difficult for the operator to maintain the desired clearance by visual means. Cage-type boom guards, insulating links or proximity warning devices may be used on cranes, but the use of such devices shall not alter the requirements of any other regulation of this part even if such device is required by law or regulation. Any overhead wire shall be considered to be an energized line unless and until the person owning such line or the electrical utility authorities indicates that it is not an energized line and it has been visibly grounded.

HOT WORK PERMITS

Hot Work permits are issued to authorize work involving any source of potential ignition near flammable or combustible materials. Welding, cutting, the use of non-spark-proof tools and/or non-explosion-proof equipment and other work involving open flames shall be controlled so as not to cause a fire or explosion hazard. The Hot Work Permit issued shall include the area, time and type of work to be completed. A Company person/Inspector is assigned to monitor any work being performed by the Contractor to ensure that conditions of the permit are being followed. The Hot Work Permit issued covers only the work approved under the permit. If any other work is required in the area for which the Hot Work Permit was issued, a separate permit shall be issued for the work not covered under the original permit. A Hot Work Permit shall not be issued and hot work shall not proceed when flammable gas or vapor is present in excess of 10% LEL and/or 0.5% by volume of natural gas (methane), unless such flammable gas or vapor is necessary for safe performance of the work and its rate of emission is controlled. Hot Work Permits are valid for the time specified on the permit and must be reissued if work is to continue beyond the permitted time period. Permits need to be reissued if contractor leaves the site. Permits shall also be reissued in the event the emergency alarm is sounded. A fire extinguisher shall be present and in a fully charged condition throughout the hot works duration and for a minimum of thirty minutes afterwards to verify no incipient fires occur. A properly calibrated combustible gas detector shall be used to continuously monitor the surrounding atmosphere for flammable gas. The Company may require personnel to wear flame retardant coveralls if the work involves significant risk of sudden exposure to flammable gas or vapor. Restrict personnel in the area of hot work to only those who are authorized and necessary to perform the work. When welding or cutting in the vicinity of a building or facility that is protected with an Ultraviolet Flame Detection System, the UV radiation emitted by the arc may activate the UV detection system. The Contractor shall be aware of these conditions to ensure that necessary fire detection monitors are bypassed. Operations personnel shall remain on site during this period of time when the fire detection systems are bypassed. An installation of a shield may be required to keep sparks from escaping from the controlled area of the work in progress. All holes, cracks or opening in walls and floor shall be protected to prevent sparks from passing through to another area.

LADDERS

Only OSHA-approved ladders of commercial grade with a load weight rating of 250 pounds or more shall be used. Inspect before use. Ladders shall be in good condition, without loose or cracked rungs or side rails. No box, chair, carton, shelves or anything handy is to be used as a ladder. Only use ladders in good repair that are equipped with feet. Be sure the ladder is long enough to do the job safely. It should be at least three feet above the working surface. Never attempt to use a ladder in a strong wind. Ladders should be secured at the bottom to prevent kick-out and secured at the top with non-conductive material if they are tall or unsafe. Do not paint ladders except for numbering purposes. Ladders must be maintained free of oil, grease and other slipping hazards. Do not use a ladder for skids, braces, workbenches or any purpose other than climbing. Do not place a ladder in or over a doorway, unless the door is barricaded and a warning sign(s) is posted.

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK

Page 13 of 26

Ladders may be used on scaffolds only if secured and the user ties off with a safety body harness. Face a ladder when ascending, descending and working from it. Do not carry anything that will prevent holding on with both hands while ascending or descending a ladder. Use a handline. Carry tools on belt or raise and lower materials with a rope to leave both hands free while climbing. Keep both feet on the ladder rungs. Do not reach out too far, or place one foot on a line or piece of equipment. Change the position of the ladder as often as necessary. No attempt should be made to reach beyond a normal arms length while standing on the ladder, especially to the side. Do not climb on a ladder that is occupied by someone else. Do not use metal ladders around electrical activities or near any electric lines or services. Fiberglass ladders are required when working around electrical equipment. Observe all warning tags. Straight and extension ladders shall be tied off during use. Folding ladders must be locked open. Never stand or step on either the top step or the top of a ladder. Place extension ladder so the base is out one-fourth the vertical distance from the ground to the object against which the ladder is leaning. Do not take extension ladders apart to use either section separately. When using a stepladder, make sure that it is fully spread and locked. Check for unsafe hinges as well as steps and uprights. Stepladders should not be walked when someone is on them. Always read and understand the manufacturers warning and follow the instructions.

LOCKOUT AND TAGOUT

A written lockout/tagout procedure is required to prevent accidental startup or release of energy sources (electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, chemical, thermal and others). All Contractor personnel affected by lockout/tagout must be trained in appropriate lockout/tagout procedures. Before beginning service or maintenance work, a work plan shall be constructed. Personnel performing work within the plan shall have a review of the plan that covers the lockout/tagout measures and requirements. The most effective means of preventing personnel injury or property damage from an unanticipated movement of machinery, or release of stored energy, is to isolate and dissipate the residual energy and/or use a restraining device to prevent movement. This action shall be followed by the placement of a safeguard lock and tag to prevent the reactivation of the source. The Contractor Supervision and Company Inspector or Representative shall verify that the equipment and process has been thoroughly isolated and appropriately locked and tagged. Each person including contractor personnel should actively participate in lockout/tagout to assure equal protection. The Company Representative shall always be present whenever Contractors padlocks are attached or removed from the lockout device. In addition, Contractors shall not touch start/stop devices unless a Company Representative is present. Following completion of the activity, all guards and other safety devices shall be reinstalled before authorized persons remove locking devices and/or tags. If a padlock is mistakenly left on and there is a need to reactivate the equipment or process, it shall be the responsibility of the Company Inspector or Representative and Contractor Supervision to conduct a thorough investigation to verify that it is safe to remove the lock(s) and/or tag(s) and to reactivate the equipment or process. Only then may the lock and/or tag be removed by the responsible Company Inspector or Representative and/or Contractor Supervision.

TRENCHING AND EXCAVATION

The Occupational Safety and Health Administrations (OSHA) Excavation Standard requires that the excavation site shall be continually checked for potential hazards by a "Competent Person." Contractors are required to designate one of their personnel as the "Competent Person" who meets the requirements set forth in OSHA excavation and trenching standard. Prior to opening an excavation, determine whether underground installations, e.g., sewer, telephone, water, fuel, electric lines, etc., will be encountered. Utility companies or owners shall be contacted (via one-call system, if available) within established or customary local response times, advised of the proposed work, and asked to establish the location of their underground installations. Utility Companies will not locate private utilities; therefore, the contractor shall arrange for private utility locations. When excavation operations approach the estimated location of the underground installations, the exact location of the installation shall be determined by safe and acceptable means. This may involve probing the ground by hand or hand digging to ensure that any underground installation will not be damaged. A soil determination shall be made and documented as to soil type and class. Also, the following items must be addressed:

Excavations that are 5 feet or more in depth into which workers will enter, shall be sloped or shored sufficiently to prevent cave-ins. When an excavation can not be sufficiently sloped, adequate protective systems shall be provided and used. The overburden of excavated materials shall be located at least 2 feet from the edge of any excavation that is 4 feet or more in depth. When personnel are required to be in trenches 4 feet deep or more, ladders or steps shall be provided and located as to require no more than 25 feet of lateral travel to exit. Contractors shall furnish and place around excavations and trenches the proper guards, barricades, lights, fences, etc., that may be necessary for the safety of the public. A registered professional engineer shall design sloping, benching and shoring systems for excavations greater than 20 feet deep. The competent person prior to the start of work shall conduct a documented inspection of the excavation and as needed throughout the shift. Documented inspections shall also be made after every rainstorm or other hazard-increasing occurrence. These inspections are required when personnel exposure can be reasonably anticipated. The Competent Person may be over several excavations at the same site. If any changes occur at the excavation the Competent Person must review the site before work can be continued. VEHICLE SAFETY

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK

3.02ADM001

Page 20 of 26

conducted in accordance with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission requirements. To ensure that personnel are aware of the presence of radiation emitting devices, special warning signs shall be posted. Radiation areas shall be barricaded and controlled to prevent entry by unauthorized personnel. When radiography work is being conducted in the vicinity of a building or facility protected with an Ultraviolet Flame (UV) Detection System, the radiation emitted may activate the UV detection system. The Contractor shall be aware of these conditions to ensure that the Company personnel bypass the necessary fire detection monitors. Company Operations personnel shall remain on site during this period of time when the fire detection systems are bypassed. Contractor shall not perform any work while fire detection systems are bypassed unless Company personnel are onsite.

WASTE MANAGEMENT

A waste is considered to be anything which is no longer fit for its intended use, or is spilled, abandoned, discarded, burned, disposed or applied to the land in a manner that constitutes disposal. In addition to the obvious types of waste (e.g., trash, process wastes, etc.), this includes the following:

Spills or releases Unknown/unidentifiable materials A material that is no longer fit for its intended use, e.g., inventory damaged by cold temperatures or which has an expired shelf life.
Batteries that are not returned to the vendor or recycled Chlorinated solvents, e.g., chlorothene, carburetor cleaners, etc. Standard solvents or mineral spirits, e.g., cleaners solvent, Safety Kleen 105 Paint wastes Used oil that is not recycled Waste fuels and methanol that are not recycled Fluorescent light bulbs

Examples of hazardous wastes are:

Contractors must obtain authorization from the Companys Representative or Companys Environmental Specialist before disposing of any waste into sumps, dumpsters and drums at Company facilities. Contractors must comply with all regulations and polices regarding waste management. Contractor must not wash or spray down equipment without adequate containment. No liquids may be placed in dumpsters. Cautions about mixing wastes: Realize where the waste is going and how the mixture shall be handled there. Will it cost more money to dispose of the mixture? Do not mix: Solids with liquids Hazardous with non-hazardous wastes Incompatible materials (e.g. acids and flammables) Unknown materials

CONTRACTOR ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH & SAFETY REFERENCE HANDBOOK

3.02ADM001

Page 21 of 26

Keep an inventory of exactly what goes in any dedicated hazardous waste drums. Perform weekly container inspections as required. How to store waste properly: Store in approved locations. Label contents and appropriate hazard warnings. Keep bungs closed. Use drum covers for long term storage. Use only structurally sound containers; i.e., shippable containers that do not have any corrosion, rust, bulges, dents, etc. Never dump wastes on the ground for storage, even temporarily. Store empty drums on their side to prevent rainwater accumulations. Asbestos waste must be double bagged, labeled and placed inside a rigid container for transportation or long term storage.

Maintain records of waste shipments. How to ship waste properly: Contact the District Environmental Specialist (ES) with the name and amount of waste
