NORWEST <br /> COR PORAT ION <br /> 2 METHODOLOGY <br /> 2.1 FIELD PREPARATION <br /> Proper planning will be conducted prior to performing field work. To ensure <br /> preparedness for the field, equipment and field supply checklists will be used and are <br /> included in Attachment B. <br /> 2.2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS <br /> Safety precautions will be taken prior to each site visit. Proper safety equipment will be <br /> carried in the field and includes: <br /> • Vehicle safety kit <br /> • Fire extinguisher <br /> • Emergency contact numbers <br /> • First aid emergency kit <br /> • Safety vests <br /> Each day prior to entering the field, a safety evaluation will be conducted by the field <br /> technicians to identify anticipated hazards. Weather related hazards will be considered <br /> and include snow, ice, freezing temperatures, thunderstorms, heat exhaustion, and windy <br /> conditions. Physical hazards, including tripping hazards, uneven terrain, steep banks, and <br /> muddy conditions will be anticipated and safe practices discussed. Wildlife, such as <br /> snakes and bees, will also be discussed prior to mobilization to the field. If unsafe <br /> conditions are anticipated, field work will be delayed until conditions improve. <br /> Nitrile gloves will be worn when handling sample bottle sets with preservatives and also <br /> while holding other potentially harmful items such as equipment calibration solutions. <br /> Leather gloves will be worn when handling sharp equipment. <br /> 2.3 SURFACE WATER MONITORING <br /> Figure 1-1 above illustrates the general location where each of the two (2) surface water <br /> monitoring stations have been established. These surface water locations are called <br /> LTC-1 and LTC-2. Each surface water monitoring location is located in a relatively <br /> straight part of the channel, avoiding ponded areas of the stream where possible. <br /> TRANSIT MIX CONCRETE CO. <br /> SURFACE WATER AND GROUNDWATER MONITORING PLAN <br /> 2-1 <br />
