a) Operating vehicles (e.g., trucks, forklifts, etc.) and manual transfer equipment (e.g., hand <br />trucks, jib cranes, etc.) in a safe manner to prevent accidental collisions, ruptures, or <br />spillage of reagents in storage containers. <br />b) Making sure that traffic passageways are clear and unobstructed and adequate overhead <br />and lateral clearance is available to allow safe vehicle or manual equipment passage during <br />reagent transfer to or from storage and dispensing stations. <br />c) Maintaining work place inspections to ensure that pallets or containers are placed <br />securely on a firm, solid foundation to prevent tipping resulting in spillage or damage to <br />containers. <br />6.2 Maintenance, Security, and Safety <br />Inspection of storage facilities is completed on a weekly basis. Storage facilities at the <br />geomembrane -lined facility within the West Pit perimeter are also inspected on a weekly basis. <br />These inspections include checking bulk and portable containers for visible signs of leakage, signs <br />of weakness or damage (e.g., perforations, tears, ruptures, etc.), proper labeling and demarcation, <br />and inspection of the facility containment structures and berms for deterioration (e.g., cracks, <br />breaks, etc.). Any observed problems are immediately reported to the Site Environmental <br />Coordinator, investigated, and repaired, if necessary. <br />The San Luis Project has an active security /safety program. Access to the previous mill <br />beneficiation and mine areas are gated and/or fenced to control public access. Notice and warning <br />signs are placed at appropriate public and private roadway intersections alerting travelers. Yard <br />lighting at the previous mill and the West Pit water treatment facility is adequate to deter vandalism <br />and to facilitate nighttime operations and inspections associated with chemical storage containers. <br />Warning signs and labels are also an integral part of the ERP /SPCC program and are posted at all <br />bulk materials storage sites and on all portable chemical storage containers (e.g., barrels). These <br />signs or labels are posted to alert or remind operators and visitors of the nature of the material, the <br />inherent hazards associated with the material, and to promote safe work habits.
