Sure Lee if you think it will help in training!
They were all issued Hard Hats, as you can see a few decided not to wear them after they had fallen off a few times. They are adults, they were briefed of the concern and why we need bump hats and if they choose not to wear it, they signed off of responsibility.
This was NOT a confined space, it was close quarters but there were several entries and exits.
The air was tested and and showed no elevated levels, so no need for respiratory protection, as per the IH on the project.
"aerosolize all that soil"
We had concerns also, so we had several 1-HP Axial Exhaust fans running so we wouldn't get any back flow into the school.
We used a manometer to document that we kept the area under negative pascals. it varied but it was never less than .009 printed and documented with the invoice.
You got me on why they were not wearing their goggles!
The drying setup was after 2-days of tear out of the wet pipe insulation (NO Asbestos-it was also tested) and bio burden removal.
They all had eye protection during that phase, why they choose not to during setup ?
I guess you always have to watch your employees. Not matter how well you think you have your bases covered, it still comes down to implementation!
Sure use it!
