Common use of ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS Clause in Contracts

ENVIRONMENTAL, HEALTH AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS. (1) Hazardous Substances and Safety Data Sheets: Prior to performing the Work or providing Deliverables, Contractor shall submit to the Edison Representative a list of all hazardous substances (chemicals and chemical products) to be used in performing the Work or providing the Deliverables. Contractor shall maintain a list of all hazardous substances (chemicals and chemical products) used at the Jobsite. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) shall be readily available from the Contractor for each hazardous substance (chemicals and chemical products) at the Jobsite for which a manufacturer has prepared an SDS. For purposes of the Agreement, “readily available” means that the Contractor shall produce an SDS for review within fifteen (15) minutes of the SDS being requested by the Edison Representative or by an official from a government agency. SDSs shall comply with the Federal (29 CFR 1910.1200) and California (Title 8, CCR 5194) OSHA Hazard Communication Standards. (2) All containers of hazardous substances (chemicals and chemical products) shall be properly labeled in accordance with Applicable Laws. These labels shall be clearly legible and capable of withstanding normal shipping and handling while maintaining legibility. Any container received at the Jobsite without labels, or with illegible information, is subject to rejection and return to Contractor at Contractor’s expense. Labels of new chemical products shall be legible and bear the manufacturer’s label and shall include, at a minimum: (i) Identification of any hazardous substance (chemicals and chemical products); (ii) Appropriate hazard warnings; and (iii) Name and address of manufacturer, importer, or other responsible party. Manufacturer labels that are illegible shall be replaced with a label bearing the required data. Each container of hazardous substances (chemicals and chemical products) not in the manufacturer’s original container shall be labeled, tagged, or marked with the following information: (i) Identification of the hazardous substance (chemicals and chemical products); and (ii) appropriate hazard warnings. (3) Contractor is hereby warned that exposure to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm may occur at Edison facilities. Upon request, the Edison Representative shall make available to the Contractor and its employees an SDS for such chemical exposures at the Jobsite. The appropriate SDS is available from Edison’s Occupational Safety and Health Division. Contractor shall inform its Subcontractors of the above information. From the time that Contractor enters Edison facilities or begins the Work until the time the Work is completed, Contractor shall, and shall require its Subcontractors to, issue warnings for exposure to chemicals that Contractor may use in connection with the Work or that Contractor is aware of, and that are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm to personnel at the Jobsite. Contractor shall also warn the Edison Representative of any exposure which may continue after Contractor has completed the Work. Such warnings may take the form of an SDS. Edison’s buildings and structures are of such an age that they may contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and asbestos-containing-construction materials (ACCMs). Edison has conducted limited surveys of its structures; therefore, all suspect ACMs are assumed to be asbestos containing until proven otherwise through survey and analysis. All suspect ACMs must be surveyed by a certified asbestos consultant in California or an asbestos inspector registered in Nevada, as applicable, depending upon the location where Contractor will perform Work or provide Deliverables, prior to any renovation, demolition or other activity that could disturb suspect ACMs. The survey shall be provided to the Edison Corporate Environment, Health and Safety Asbestos Program Manager (APM) at least 15 working days prior to the start of the Work. The APM will provide direction for projects that could disturb ACMs or ACCMs. ACMs or ACCMs that could be disturbed must be removed in compliance with Applicable Laws by a contractor that has the proper asbestos registrations for the state in which the Work is being performed or Deliverables provided.
