Safety of the business representatives, City staff, and our <br />inspectors is the most critical area of concern. Our inspectors are familiar with typical safety hazards associated with <br />field inspections at various industrial and commercial operations. When a serious hazard is present that prevents safe <br />completion of a site inspection, the inspection will be stopped immediately and the City will be notified. Our field <br />staff are 40 -hour HAZWOPER certified and are familiar with the general safety precautions including the proper use <br />of personal protective equipment (PPE), safe driving techniques, and traffic control. Prior to inspections, Amec <br />Foster Wheeler staff will discuss with the business representatives about site - specific safety requirements. At a <br />minimum, field personnel will adhere to the safety requirements prescribed by the individual facilities being inspected. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler also has a project health and safety plan that is located within each inspector's tool box. The <br />health and safety plan includes notification requirements in the event an incident occurs, critical information such as <br />emergency room locations nearby, and required safety measures. <br />Program Suggestions <br />Amec Foster Wheeler is always looking for ways to improve our inspection programs. With years of experience, we <br />have optimized our procedures so our staff perform inspections efficiently while providing the necessary <br />information to the business representatives. With offices statewide implementing similar programs, we are always <br />discussing strategies incorporated by other Cities that could be included in our inspection programs. If <br />improvements can be made, the project manager will discuss these recommendations with City staff. An example <br />improvement would be the process for sharing data between the City and our inspection team.
