Baseline Testing. Those employees who are or may be exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards, including dangerous drugs or dangerous chemicals used for the manufacture of drugs, at or above permissible exposure limits (as defined by OSHA regulations) in the course and scope of their employment shall be tested by the Agency for exposure to the hazardous substance as follows:
A. Baseline drug test prior to assignment to an area where employees will be or may be exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards.
B. At least once every twelve (12) months thereafter unless the employee’s attending physician believes a longer interval is appropriate, but not to exceed biannual exams.
C. At termination or reassignment to an area where exposure will not occur if the employee has not had an examination within the preceding six (6) months.
D. As soon as possible after notification that signs or symptoms indicating possible overexposure have developed or, an injury has occurred, or exposure above the permissible exposure limits or published exposure levels has occurred in an emergency situation, and
E. Where the employee’s attending physician determines that examinations on a basis more frequently than that outlined above are medically necessary. The test will be done at Agency’s expense and on Agency time.
Baseline Testing. The Employer has the discretion to conduct baseline testing, meaning the testing of all workers at a specific site. Such testing may be conducted on a random basis and may involve testing of workers on specific sites only.
Baseline Testing. If a Water Source was tested only prior to January 1, 2019, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, that Water Source must be retested to meet Baseline Testing requirements. If a Water Source was tested on January 1, 2019, or later, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, no further testing of that Water Source is required. Test results may be submitted from untreated (raw) or treated (finished) water samples. However, all samples must be drawn from a Water Source that has been used to provide Drinking Water. For any questions about this Supplemental Claims Form, you may contact a Claim Representative at 0-000-000-0000 or xxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx. Claims Forms submitted by mail should be sent to the Claims Administrator at the following address: AFFF Public Water System Claims PO Box 4466 Baton Rouge, LA 70821
Baseline Testing a. Each Qualifying Class Member must test each of its Water Sources for PFAS, request from the laboratory that performs the analyses all analytical results, including the actual numeric values, and submit detailed PFAS test results to the Claims Administrator on a Claims Form by dates specified below. This process is referred to as Baseline Testing.
b. Any Qualifying Class Member that has an Impacted Water Source based on a test conducted on or before the Settlement Date does not need to test that Water Source again for purposes of Baseline Testing.
c. If a Water Source was tested only prior to January 1, 2019, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, that Water Source must be retested to meet Baseline Testing requirements. If a Water Source was tested on January 1, 2019, or later, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, no further testing of that Water Source is required.
d. Baseline Testing requires the following:
i. PFAS tests must be conducted at a minimum for the 29 PFAS analytes for which UCMR-5 requires testing, and
ii. the PFAS test results must report any Measurable Concentration of PFAS, regardless of whether the level of PFAS detected in the water is above or below UCMR-5’s relevant minimum reporting level.
e. Failure to test and submit Qualifying Test Results for Water Sources will disqualify Water Sources from consideration for present and future payments.
Baseline Testing. If a Water Source was tested only prior to January 1, 2019, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration (any level) of PFAS, that Water Source must be retested to meet Baseline Testing requirements. If a Water Source was tested on January 1, 2019, or later, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, no further testing of that Water Source is required. Test results may be submitted from untreated (raw) or treated (finished) water samples. However, all samples must be drawn from a Water Source that has been used to provide Drinking Water.

Baseline Testing. The Employer has the discretion to conduct baseline testing, meaning the testing of all workers at a specific site. Such testing may be conducted on a random basis and may involve testing of workers on specific sites only. Any worker who is involved in a work-related accident (as defined below) will be tested for the use of illegal drugs and/or alcohol as soon as possible after the accident. Examples of an accident that will require a worker to take a drug and/or alcohol test include, but are not limited to, accidents that are caused by a worker and result in one of the following:
Baseline Testing. Those employees who are or may be exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards, including dangerous drugs or dangerous chemicals used for the manufacture of drugs, at or above permissible exposure limits (as defined by OSHA regulations) in the course and scope of their employment shall be tested by the City for exposure to the hazardous substance as follows:
1. Baseline drug test prior to assignment to an area where employees will be or may be exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards.
2. At least once every twelve (12) months thereafter unless the employee’s attending physician believes a longer interval is appropriate, but not to exceed biannual exams.
3. At termination or reassignment to an area where exposure will not occur if the employee has not had an examination within the preceding six (6) months.
4. As soon as possible after notification that signs or symptoms indicating possible overexposure have developed or, an injury has occurred or exposure above the permissible exposure limits or published exposure levels has occurred in an emergency situation.
5. Where the employee’s attending physician determines that examinations on a basis more frequently than that outlined above are medically necessary. The test will be done at City’s expense and on City time.
Baseline Testing. If a Water Source was tested only prior to January 1, 2019, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration (any level) of PFAS, that Water Source must be retested to meet Baseline Testing requirements. If a Water Source was tested on January 1, 2019, or later, and its test results do not show a Measurable Concentration of PFAS, no further testing of that Water Source is required.

Baseline Testing. The Parties acknowledge that, in August 2020 and prior to Contractor’s occupation and use of the Facility, District conducted Hazardous Substances testing on and about the Facility and shared the test results with Contractor. The Parties agree that this testing shall establish the baseline for Hazardous Substances at the Facility. At any time, District may require additional testing to detect the presence of Hazardous Substances by the use of any tests that are then customarily used for those purposes.
