Prior to the commencement of trenching and excavation work, the subcontractor shall submit a JSA and confirm with AHB, Inc. as to the presence of hazardous contaminants in the soils such that proper personal protective equipment, training, and/or air monitoring can be provided. Prior to any disruption of ground, excavation or trenching on this project, the following will be performed: No groundbreaking, excavation or trenching work will be performed without the presence of a competent person Underground utility locating authorities must be given the required advance notices to locate and mark the utility If underground utilities are known or suspected, proper notification will be given to AHB, Inc. Project Management The competent person will analyze the soil of the work area to determine the condition and type of soil to ascertain proper sloping or shoring requirements During excavation or trenching operations on this project, the following requirements will be followed: All trenches and excavations six feet or deeper will have as a minimum rigid barricades, signage posted at the work area, and appropriate fall protection, if needed Trenches or excavations will be sloped or benched in accordance with applicable rules and regulations, and as determined by the competent person Supporting systems (i.e., shoring, piling, etc.) will be utilized for all trenches and excavations where sloping or benching could not be performed.
