1. INTRODUCTION Safety is our priority. At the Kansas City Plant, our concern for safety begins before the start of your project. We launched a “Safety as a Lifestyle” campaign that encourages our associates to approach safety as a vital and ever-present part of their daily lives. We look to our construction contractors to strive for the same level of safety commitment. The Kansas City Plant is committed to working with you to ensure a safe and healthful workplace for both your employees and our associates. The Kansas City Plant has proudly achieved star status in the Department of Energy Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) and ISO 14001, the Environmental Management System Standard. With your help, we can remain one of the safest and most environmentally friendly facilities in the DOE community. This handbook will assist you in producing a project-specific safety plan for construction contract work to be performed for The Kansas City Plant. This document is not intended to cover all aspects of a safety program, but it is intended to provide guidelines to assist your company in developing a quality safety plan. Local policies and practices can be added to these guidelines to provide a more practical vehicle for each contractor’s immediate needs. All Sellers shall take reasonable precautions under this contract to assure the safety and health of KCP’s associates and assure the protection of plant operations from damage that might result from construction activities. It is the Seller's continuing and absolute responsibility for all aspects of construction safety on their jobsite at the KCP. Any action or inaction by KCP’s or the NNSA or their designated representative shall in no way alleviate Seller's responsibility or in any way create liability on the part of the Buyer or the NNSA. Notice: This handbook provides requirements and illustrations in effect on the date of publication, February 2007. Requirements are subject to change without notice. If you currently have an active construction project, you will receive changes and updates as they become available.

We can be reached in the Safety and Health Department at (816) 997-5142. C. Cover Back Back Cover: FM&T’s Integrated Safety Management (ISM) logo: a common sense approach to doing work safely. Treat safety as an equal and essential part of the job, not as an add-on or afterthought. ISM’s approach tailors hazard control to the work being performed. This is the key element to writing a successful site-specific safety plan. D. Policy It is the policy at the Kansas City Plant (KCP) to assure that construction and construction-related contracts comply with site-specific, federal, state, and local requirements concerning safety, health, fire protection, and environmental protection standards. E. Our Mission We will achieve a world class level of safety performance for contractors working at Honeywell locations through increased safety awareness, communication of expectations, and following work processes which reduce at-risk behaviors. F. Our Commitment We recognize that outstanding safety performance is essential to the welfare of all associates, contractors and to business excellence. We will continue to improve our global competitiveness by making safety an integral part of all business activities.

G. VPP Program The KCP has proudly achieved star status in the Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) which recognizes our employees and contractors for demonstrating the highest level of safety and health performance. Under this program you have the right to participate in safety and health issues at our facility, report or stop unsafe conditions, review accident reports and take an active role in improving our safety and health program. We encourage you to attend the various construction safety meetings held throughout the year. Thanks again for making the KCP a national leader in safety and health. H. Purpose The following requirements shall be fulfilled by the contractor and each lower-tier subcontractor (for the remainder of this document referred to collectively as "Seller" when the requirements apply to either party). I. Point of Contact Our Buyer has designated the Project Engineer as the Seller's point of liaison for any Seller activity described in this document as requiring any joint approvals by Environment, Safety, and Health (ES&H). J. Contractual Construction Safety Statement In the event of an imminent danger violation (a condition or practice existing which could reasonably be expected to cause death, serious physical harm, or extensive environmental/property damage if it were not stopped), a Stop Work Order and Citation will be issued to the Seller. The following individuals are authorized to issue a Stop Work Order: 1. Purchasing on the recommendation of Facilities Engineering; 2. NNSA Contracting Officer; 3. ES&H associates (Fire Prevention, Health & Safety or Environmental Protection). The Stop Work Order will be written by the Project Engineer. Verbal direction will be given to stop work when an imminent danger condition exists. The Seller will be notified when to resume work after a Stop Work Order has been issued. The Seller shall make no claims for extensions of time or for compensation or damages by reason of or in connection with such work stoppage. KCP employees may also intervene if they see a construction contractor performing an unsafe act.

10

K. Safety Qualification Requirements The Kansas City Plant qualifies general contractors to assure that they meet established safety criteria prior to being allowed to work and they are committed to working safely while at the Kansas City Plant. Qualification requirements are established in a two-step system. All general contractors must meet the requirements of the first step (PART 1); Then complete part on on-site visit of your facility (PART 2). Contractors who pass the qualification process will be added to the KCP’s list of qualified companies and will remain on the list until March 1 of the following year. If a general contractor is under contract, they will remain qualified for the duration of their contract. The specifics of the two-step system are further defined in appendix M.

2. CONTRACTOR TRAINING REQUIREMENTS A. Site Safety & Security Orientation (updated) All personnel who will be working at the Kansas City Plant will be required to attend an orientation class. The class is held every Monday at 9:00 a.m. Have your employees arrive at the main entrance. (See map at back of book for plant location.) Allow one and a half hours for the security badging and orientation class. If you are going to be on site for a short time, three days or less, we will come directly to your work area and present the orientation class. Your project coordinator will arrange the orientation class. Any time you bring new subcontract employees on-site you must notify the Safety Department to schedule an orientation class. All new employees who will be on-site for one week or more must start on Monday. Note: the orientation class schedule is subject to change. All affected contractors will be notified on any schedule changes. B. Verification of OSHA mandated training All new construction employees and subcontractors whose companies have ten or more employees shall submit for verification certificates or training records indicating they have completed OSHA mandated training. Employees will not be allowed to attend orientation class without bringing their training records. See sections D and E below for details.

11

C. Worker Safety and Health Program – 10 CFR 851 (new) February 2007 the new worker safety and health program will go into effect. This regulation requires NNSA contractors and subcontractors to comply with all OSHA safety and health regulations. This handbook will assist you in meeting these requirements. The DOE/NNSA may audit the seller’s activities to ensure compliance with the regulation. 10 CFR 851 can easily be accessed on the internet. D. Training Badges A safety and security orientation badge will be issued to all crafts who complete the class. This card must be presented to the security guard when returning to gain access to the plant. This card is proof that your employees and subcontractors have completed the site safety and security orientation class. The new program started September 1, 2005. If you are bringing in a subcontractor, check to see if they have training badges prior to their first day of work. Below is the procedure for forgotten or lost orientation badges. Forgot Badge Your employee/sub contacts project superintendent and waits in guard shack. Superintendent calls extension 3181 and gives employee name. Superintendent comes down to ES&H at OB48 ½ to pick up temporary badge. Superintendent delivers badge to employee waiting in guard shack. Temporary badge will expire in 24 hours. Lost Badge Your employee/sub contacts project superintendent and waits in guard shack. Superintendent calls extension 4040 and gives employee name. Superintendent comes down to ES&H at OB48 ½ to pick up replacement badge. Superintendent delivers badge to employee waiting in guard shack. Details Third badge re-print due to loss results in warning ticket to general contractor. During emergency repair situations, employees will be allowed to work if they forget their badge. No temporary or badge replacements will be issued on weekends or holidays or outside normal business hours.

12

Examples include internal or external excavation, trenching, soil borings, ground rod installations, or any other construction activity that has the potential to disturb a buried or encased utility in the soil. Requesting a permit: Minimum 3-day advanced notice is required to adequately research and identify hazards that may exist at the excavation site. These permits are generally issued on a daily or weekly basis depending on the operation. Permits may be issued for any period that is decided appropriate by the Project Engineer. Excavations should be reviewed prior to entry and the permits reviewed weekly as a minimum. Advanced notification is required to allow Buyer to perform a basic review of potential utilities in the area. Seller is responsible for performing work in a manner that recognizes utilities may exist that are not identified by the Buyer’s utility locating equipment (See Appendix R). Note: For areas outside the perimeter security fence Missouri One Call shall be contacted for utility locations (1-800-DIG RITE) D. Penetration Checklist (new) The penetration checklist replaces the class 2 penetration permit. The new checklist allows the contractor to locate utilities and re-bar themselves in concrete 4 inches or less in depth. The checklist shall be completed prior to any saw cutting, jack hammering, drilling or penetration of asphalt, concrete ceilings, floors, columns, beams, roof ribs, concrete & metal roofs, footings, foundations, exterior slab on grade (concrete & asphalt) or suspended slabs (ramps, etc.) (See section 19 and Appendix Q.) Exemption - Work under construction the Seller has installed as a part of the same project does not require a penetration permit. E. Life Safety Aisle/Exit Impairment Permits Life Safety Aisle/Exit Impairment Permits are issued for tasks that will require the aisle to be partially or totally blocked for a period of time. If an aisle must have on-going work, then a permit will be issued to identify the work and materials that will be within the life safety lines. Basically no more than one half of the aisle (minimum of 36”) may be blocked for a partial and the partial impairment must last two hours to require permitting. Total blockages require a 24-hour notice, considerable coordination and are generally permitted only on off-shift to keep the risk levels lower. Remember, if you block less than half the aisle for less than 2 hours, you do not need a permit.

28

16. INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE & HEALTH PHYSICS The Kansas City Plant (KCP) is committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment for its employees as well as subcontractors. The safety and health of workers is a top priority. Honeywell, FM&T has committed considerable resources and efforts to make the work environment as safe as possible. Safety and health inspections are conducted on a regular basis as well as monitoring for airborne contaminants and other potential health concerns. Rules and policies have been developed and must be followed to ensure a healthy work environment. Therefore, it is important contractors become familiar with the rules and policies regarding safety and health while working at The Kansas City Plant. A. Hazardous Material Sampling Subcontractors are encouraged to notify KCP’s safety and health department of concerns and issues they may have. KCP will address concerns and provide any available information regarding specific safety and health concerns. If a subcontractor feels additional steps are needed, they may, at their own discretion and expense, take additional steps to ensure the safety and health of their workers, such as performing air monitoring on their workers. Contact the KCP’s Industrial Hygienists for assistance before performing any sampling. B. Employee Protection Systems Do not block, make inoperable, remove, or disconnect exhaust systems, emergency eyewash/shower units, or breathing apparatus equipment without approval of the Project Engineer. NOTE: Any inadvertent impairment of these systems shall be brought to the immediate attention of the Project Engineer. C. Ventilation and Dust Control 1. Exhaust ventilation is required in conditions where fumes or vapors of paints, sealants, or exhaust fumes pose a potential health risk to employees working in the area or adjacent areas. This also includes the use of propane or internal combustion equipment inside the plant that may generate exhaust fumes. (Exhaust fumes must be properly ventilated to the outside.) 2. Particulate dust control shall be performed by a method acceptable to the Project Engineer. Wet removal methods or sealing of the area may be required to isolate dust from occupied areas. 3. When working around exhaust stack or ducts at vapor level, use Lockout Tagout (LOTO) to prevent exposure.

41

4. Breaking, grinding, or sawing of concrete or other dust-generating materials within the building requires dust and silica control measures. The use of water fog, mists, or other effective means approved by the Project Engineer is permissible. Dust from these activities shall not be allowed to enter the factory ventilation systems. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in the issuance of a stop work order. Seller shall be liable for damage to machines, parts, and equipment caused by violation of this section. Seller shall also be required to clean all areas contaminated with concrete or other construction-related dust. D. Painting / Coating Application Guidelines The purpose of this guidance is to provide basic framework to use when painting at the KCP. The most important element is to communicate early in the planning process with affected departments/associates in the immediate and surrounding areas. Contact area owners in the affected departments to describe the work to be done, materials to be used (including MSDS), and timing of when the work needs to be completed. 1. Determine the optimum time this work can be accomplished to minimize the impact on normal operations and creating additional costs. 2. Less-toxic paints must be used in place of more-toxic paints when available. For example, alternatives must be investigated for paints containing carcinogens. If paints containing carcinogens must be used, they must be used in accordance with a KCP’s Carcinogen Control Safety Plan. 3. Nonflammable paints must be used in place of flammables when available. 4. Paints containing high solvents (>3.5 lbs./gallon VOC), toxic or irritating odors, and covering large occupied areas or areas sharing HVAC systems with occupied adjacent spaces, should be applied when normal operations can be temporarily halted until paint cures and odors dissipate (typically on second or third shift or on weekends). 5. When irritating paints or paints with high, objectionable odors (though the paint is not particularly toxic) are to be applied in an area occupied by associates in close proximity to the area to be painted, it should be given consideration whether paint is to be applied on second or third shift or on weekends. Latex or other water-based paints are not considered to fall into this category. 6. Paints (such as safety yellow) applied to small areas (such as near fire equipment) may be applied on first shift (provided it is to cover only small areas and is in large, open areas such as aisles) when not in closed areas occupied by associates.

42

7. All paints must be applied with adequate ventilation or respiratory protection for the painter. When large areas are to be painted, increased ventilation and increased make-up air to the area is to be provided, where possible. (Additional ventilation is not possible in some areas due to limitations of HVAC systems and access to other sources of fresh air, or potential for freezing coils in the winter.) 8. Paints must be applied with brush, roller, or non-aerosol spray delivery systems to minimize aerosols; very small areas (less than 8 ft. x 8 ft.) may be painted using spray only when provisions are made to provide exhaust ventilation or ES&H is consulted to provide other means to minimize exposure during spray application. E. Noise 1. Hearing Protection is mandatory for the Construction Contractor's personnel if they are exposed to noise levels which exceed the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.95 which is an 8-hour time weighted average of 90 decibels (A-scale.) Noise exposure that exceeds an 8-hour time weighted average of 85 decibels (A-scale) will require the seller to provide a Hearing Conservation Program for their affected employees. Hearing protection is required for the Contractor's personnel in any area of the facility so posted. Construction sites requiring hearing protection shall be posted. 2. Activities producing excessive noise (over 80 decibels) that impede normal activity in adjacent areas must be conducted with the least impact to operations. Coordination with the affected area owner will be necessary to determine the optimum time this work can be accomplished to minimize additional costs. This may require construction/demolition activities to be conducted on 2nd or 3rd shift or on weekends. 3. No vibratory equipment (such as jack hammers) shall be used in any office area during normal daytime working hours. This shall include the walls, ceilings, or floors adjacent to an office area. Exception is allowed only with permission from the Project Engineer and department supervision. F. Asbestos-Containing Material If you suspect asbestos is on your job site but it is not identified, immediately halt work and contact the Project Engineer. If asbestos is present, the Project Engineer shall make arrangements for asbestos removal. G. Non-Ionizing and Ionizing Radiation The use of lasers or ionizing radiation generating equipment will require notification to the KCP’s ES&H Department prior to use.

43

H. Hazard Communication All construction contractors will have a written Hazard Communication program on site in compliance with 29 CFR 1926.59 and include Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all hazardous materials used in support of the contract work. KCP will provide your employees with MSDSs for materials as requested. I. Confined Space Entry 1. The Seller is fully responsible for monitoring the atmospheric conditions in confined spaces and verifying personnel entering the confined space are appropriately trained. 2. Failure to have adequately trained personnel will stop the confined space entry. 3. All employees of the Seller who will be working in confined spaces must complete Honeywell’s confined space entry overview course. 4. The group entering the confined space shall request authorization to enter a confined space from KCP’s ES&H Department and fill out the confines space entry form E2760. This request shall be made 24 hours in advance of the proposed entry to ensure the Fire Department has a sufficient number of associates on duty. 5. The confined space entry permit E2760 can be replaced with the sellers permit if it is deemed adequate and it is determined to meet the requirements outlined in the KCP confined space permit. The seller shall submit their permit as part of the written safety plan for evaluation prior to start of the project. 6. An estimate must be provided of how long the confined space will be occupied. 7. A fire frequency radio supplied by KCP is required to be on-site during confined space entry. The radios will be issued by the Fire Department on a daily basis and must be returned to the Fire Department at the end of the shift. 8. The contractor must wear the appropriate personal protective equipment where required. 9. Tripod- All confined space entries from vertical type permit spaces require a mechanical retrieval system to facilitate non-entry rescue. The retrieval system shall meet the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.146 (k)(3)(i) 10. The Contractor Confined Space Entry Permit shall be posted during the confined space entry. Once completed, return the confined space entry permit to the KCP safety department. The permit shall remain posted until the confined space entry is terminated. 11. Post entry debrief – Mark the confined space entry form with any hazards confronted or created in the confined space during the entry.

44

J. Hazardous Material Labeling Requirements 1. The Seller shall: a. Ensure that all chemicals and hazardous materials are identified with a hazardous material warning labels by the manufacturer prior to storage or use. b. Ensure that your employees understand the information on the warning label. c. Properly label the container with a replacement label containing identical information if either of the following occurs: The label falls off or is removed. The contents are transferred to a new container for either moving or storing. d. Submit an inventory of all hazardous materials for your project to the Project Engineer. The inventory shall be updated as materials are delivered to or stored on site. The hazardous material inventory shall include the Project Number, Material Name, Manufacturer, and the quantity of the material. K. Lead Lead paint has been identified in the Kansas City Plant. Prior to initiating work, review requirements of CFR 1926.62 and assure requirements are complied with. Contact the ES&H Department to have painted surfaces tested for lead.

45

L. Beryllium Awareness Beryllium is a naturally occurring metal used in aerospace, nuclear, electronics, automotive, and other industries. Though useful, it may cause serious health problems to those who are exposed to airborne particles. The most common health problem is a respiratory disease known as Chronic Beryllium Disease, or CBD. Beryllium alloys have been used in operations and are known to be present at the Kansas City Plant. Some of the processes involving beryllium alloys caused contamination of work surfaces and other building surfaces. Thousands of samples throughout the plant have been collected to characterize the facility for beryllium contamination. Some areas of the plant have been identified as containing elevated levels of contamination. While most of these areas have had the contamination removed, some areas have yet to be cleaned. These areas are posted and are administratively controlled. Do not enter a posted area unless you are authorized and you have the chemical protective clothing and equipment required to enter the area. Trace amounts of beryllium may be present in dust and dirt on structural and equipment surfaces, especially elevated horizontal surfaces. Any operation which may disturb beryllium-containing or suspected beryllium-containing materials presents the potential for exposure to beryllium for the Contractor's employees and KCP associates. Exposure to beryllium can result in toxic effects which depend upon the concentration level and duration of exposure. The Department of Energy has provided mandatory employee protective measures for working with or around beryllium, beryllium alloys, and beryllium compounds. Airborne beryllium is a respiratory hazard. Inhalation of microscopic, beryllium-containing particles into your lungs may lead to three health problems: Acute beryllium disease, Lung cancer, or Chronic Beryllium Disease (CBD). While beryllium is considered a human carcinogen, studies which show it can cause lung cancer involve exposure to much higher levels of beryllium than anticipated at the KCP (or allowed by OSHA and DOE). This is also true of the acute form of beryllium disease. So, CBD is the chief concern with beryllium exposure. Also, some people become sensitized to beryllium upon exposure. This means that the person’s immune system has been activated. This seems to put the person at greater risk of developing CBD. M. Beryllium Training All workers coming on-site will receive beryllium safety awareness training as part of the safety and security orientation.

46

N. Beryllium Tools In a continuing effort to remove unnecessary beryllium-containing items at the KCP all contractors are to remove beryllium alloy non-sparking tools. Due to the range of applications for non-sparking tools, the KCP is alerting its associates and contractors to this potential concern. These tools are typically used around flammable gases and flammable liquids. They can include hammers, sockets, bung wrenches, and open-end wrenches (some are marked with becu, beco, or belco), etc. If you need assistance in identifying these tools or have any other questions, feel free to contact extension 4040. O. Subcontractor Beryllium Workers Subcontractors who perform work that creates an opportunity for exposure to berylliumcontaining material or beryllium contamination must perform that work in accordance with the KCP Chronic Beryllium Disease Prevention Program (CBDPP) that is published in an internal procedure, Command Media Process Description 21.01.01.04. A copy of this document as well as the DOE’s Chronic Beryllium Disease Prevention Program published in 10CFR850 is available upon request from the KCP. The KCP Policy regarding subcontractors as defined in the CBDPP states: 1. The KCP has established a policy to prohibit subcontractor employees from performing beryllium work except in conditions where the expertise of the subcontractor is needed to accomplish the work (no KCP associates possess the expertise). In this case, the subcontractor employees must be knowledgeable of the following: 2. The proper procedures to handle hazardous substances such as beryllium, 3. The health effects of overexposure to beryllium, 4. The beryllium medical surveillance program, 5. The proper chemical protective clothing and equipment (CPCE) needed and the proper use of the CPCE, and 6. Specific precautions to perform the task safely, and the procedures to perform the work. In cases where the subcontractor employees will perform work in a manner that can provide an opportunity for exposure, the contractor’s Site Safety Plan must address how exposure will be controlled (minimized) for workers performing the task and how contamination migration will be controlled. These controls must follow the elements of the KCP CBDPP. Workers who will become beryllium workers must also meet the following KCP Policy.

47

P. Beryllium Worker Blood Test Any employee newly assigned to a job involving the processing of beryllium in a manner that generates particles is required to have a blood LPT performed by Medical Care Services. The results of this test must be normal. The test must be preformed and the results discussed with the associate prior to beginning the beryllium processing. If the results are found to be abnormal, the associate may not perform beryllium processing. (Note: For subcontractors, the medical surveillance program is administered by ORISE.) Q. Beryllium Air Monitoring Beryllium air monitoring must be performed that is at least representative of each worker and each task performed. Enough samples must be collected to be statistically significant. The samples must be breathing zone samples and must be for the full-shift (or at least that part of the shift where the beryllium exposure occurred). Documentation that no other beryllium exposure occurred during that shift must also be submitted. The samples must be analyzed by an AIHA certified laboratory with a minimum detection limit of 0.02 micrograms following NIOSH 7300 (current edition). Monitoring results must be reported to Honeywell FM&T monthly during the project. The following data must be collected and reported for each monitoring event.
