• <br />8. TRAINING Train workers and emergency response personnel to manage <br />cyanide in a safe and environmentally protective manner. <br />Standards of Practice <br />8.1 Train workers to understand the hazards associated with cyanide <br />use. <br />The operation is: ^ in full compliance <br />^ in substantial compliance <br />^ not in compliance ...with Standard of Practice 8.1. <br />• <br />• <br />Describe the basis for the Finding/Deficiencies Identified: <br />CC&V trains all employees in cyanide hazard recognition as part of new <br />hire/annual refresher training. All contractors are required to view a video that <br />addresses cyanide management issues and hazards recognition, which is <br />accompanied by hands-on training by the Safety Coordinator if they are working <br />in an area involving use of cyanide. In critical process areas on-the-job training <br />in SOP requirements is provided by experienced operators and supervisors. <br />Training issues are also routinely addressed in weekly safety meetings and <br />monthly process area reports to upper management. Critical process SOPS are <br />retained in readily accessible plant areas. Additionally, employees. participate in <br />annual emergency response drills; see Section 7.3 and 7.6. <br />CyPlus also sponsors a yearly refresher training course that all Process <br />Operations and Mine Rescue Team (MRT) personnel attend, along with <br />representatives of the Cripple Creek EMS (CCEMS). The CCEMS ambulance <br />team provides First Aid training. <br />Completion of new SOP training topics is an incentive or condition for <br />advancement in pay grade and scale; employee performance reviews are linked <br />to training topics, many of which address cyanide management issues. <br />Cresson Project <br />Name of Mine <br />~' <br />Signature of Lead Auditor <br />10 September 2007 <br />Date <br />Page 36 of 41 <br />
