The Project Manager develops a sampling program to test the contents of the waste and ensure that it meets the QA/QC methods in Protect's S.O.P. This sampling program is presented to the City for approval. The crew begins a sampling event to determine the contents of the drums if visual confirmation and identification is not possible. Identified drums are staged in a separate area from the unidentifiable drums. The contents of these drums are tested by field tests, Haz-Cat and pH tests, and sampled by composite methods, placed in sterile jars with Teflon lids, and labeled according to standard EPA protocol. Each sample is identified by the new unique I.D. number of each relief drum and labeled accordingly. The type of analysis required for each sample is discussed with the City after discussing all recorded data and field instrument readings. Target tests and analyses are decided upon and written into the chain of custody and records of the Project Manager. All samples are preserved on ice and placed in an ice chest for delivery to an accredited laboratory for testing. 2.16 Briefly describe your remediation capabilities, including methods such as bioremediation.

Ref#: RFP-07 Page 6 of 8 RFP Title: Additional Vendors for Emergency Response and Non -Emergency Cleaning Services Protect's Response Team Provides: • Response to virtually any hazardous and non -hazardous incident that requires spill containment and/or mitigation. • Post -emergency remediation for the site after the incident is under control. • Services for haz/non-haz material abatement on land and/or surface water. • Scheduled remediation. • Waste minimization and/or neutralization for on -site work requiring attention to cost management. • Fully trained OSHA certified and experienced emergency response teams that are familiar with required procedures to conduct a safe, professional, and regulatory compliant operation. • Rapid response to fuel spills, leaking drums or vessels, cylinder leaks, or damaged cargo. • Bio hazardous remediation and disposal. • Confined space operation and standby rescue. Bioremediation: A site investigation will be conducted to determine the type of contamination and concentration levels within the site. The type of impacted media is taken into consideration during the investigation. Media such as asphalt, concrete, debris piles, pesticides or herbicide cross contamination, rocky or clay soils and general terrain may prohibit in -site treatment such as bio remediation. If in the course of investigation, it is determined that bioremediation is a potential treatment method, consideration should be given to the feasibility of conducting a treatment versus the standard "dig and haul" approach. Bioremediation is labor intensive and under some circumstances not economical. However, under certain conditions it can be preferable. Adequate moisture levels along with Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium levels must be maintained throughout the remediation process. This requires moisture introduction at uniform rates and regular intervals. Aeration of the soil column must take place through the introduction of physical means such as tilling and turning the soils or through passive means such as vacuum pumps or blowers, which inject or pull air through. Space, security, time and costs are factors which require close attention and consideration prior to concluding in -situ treatment or excavation and disposal options are preferable. 2.17 Do you have 24 hours a day/7 days a week access to all required equipment types (e.g., vacuum truck, frac tank, Bobcat 743)?

Technical Work Plan and job log based on a hypothetical emergency response incident. Protect Environmental Services, Inc. is available upon request by the City of Fort Worth, 24/7, 365 days a year, with or without an awarded contract, at the 817-589-9005 number. During an initial response call, a Protect Dispatcher receives and records the following information: time of call, agency/person calling, caller's contact information and onsite rep contact info when applicable, directions to incident, incident description, material involved (if known), terrain that incident is located on (concrete, soil, water, building, highway, truck, etc.). This data provides Protect with sufficient information to both man and equip an effective response and is relayed to the Protect Manager (PM — supervisor/manager or PM) who will be assigning crew and responding to site. PM will contact the City rep to convey the ETA for response team. This return call will be made within 5 minutes of the initial call made by the City. The response team will be assembled and will load any additional items needed other than those items commonly and routinely pre -loaded and carried on the trucks and trailers. The load out of trailer(s) and truck(s) consists of loading twenty (20) 85 -gallon poly over pack drums, twenty (20) 85 -gallon steel over packs, ten (10) 55 -gallon steel drums, bags of absorbent, Level B suits, meters, six (6) rolls of 6 -mil poly sheeting, SCBA's, generator and lights, skid steer loader with fork attachments and bucket, Haz-Cat kit, fencing material, marker paint, 250 -gallons of water, drum slings, small tools, as well as all other normally stocked items kept on the trailer and truck. The response team members will only be comprised of personnel who have received appropriate safety training in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.120 sec. Q and are currently under medical surveillance in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.20 sec. F. These response team members have been pre -employment drug and alcohol screened, background checked, are enrolled in drug and alcohol monitoring program and current on all training; allowing City to utilize Protect's team and resources on any location (schools, hospitals, highways, etc.) where an incident may be encountered. On -site, PM will meet on -site rep for incident briefing or contact City for further instructions. Any suspected threats or causes of concern are described in this meeting. During this incident briefing, the data is confirmed that there are approximately fifty (50) drums of assorted sizes, containing materials of unknown chemical character. The site is on an abandoned lot adjacent to a large municipal park. Several containers have or are currently leaking liquids onto the underlying soils. A significant volume of liquids has crossed the ground and entered a nearby dry creek bed. The liquid material is currently pooled in the ditch; the contents of the drums and the pooled liquid in the ditch area have a smell. The existing drums are both metal and plastic and many are in poor condition and unsound. Any suspected threats or causes of concern are described in this meeting. All threats are described and listed. All threats are described and listed. The PM will draft the Site Safety Plan. This plan will provide extreme detail in both health and safety issues but will also be a site security plan for responders, observers or potential visitors. The Health and Safety Plan (HASP) Protect prepares, complies strictly with the OSHA requirements and guidelines set out in 29 CFR 1910.120 (e) and (q) and is part of Protect's routine operating procedures. A GPS coordinate of the site is taken as well as photographs while the HASP is being developed. Weather conditions are evaluated and recorded. These conditions will have a significant impact Page 1 of 12 PROPRIETARY Ct� upon both the Site Safety Plan as well as the Work Plan. Site security and control duties are assigned and becomes the ultimate responsibility of the PM once the incident command is officially turned over to Protect. The PM shall supplement reconnaissance data provided by the response crew and integrate that information into the Work Plan. A site map is drafted to provide information regarding terrain, excavation routes, wind direction, water bodies, water receptors, drainage patterns, hazards or debris which may be present, contiguous or adjacent properties which may be affected or require remediation concerns. The PM shall complete the drafting of the plan, covering the types of personal protective suits, gloves, initial respiratory protection, as well as the standard gear of hard hats, steel toe chemical boots, safety glasses, hearing protection, etc. Failure to use the mandatory PPE will result in the immediate removal from the job site. Our final section of the site safety Work Plan will cover the standard operating procedures developed by Protect in regards to the following procedures: traffic / excavation / weather / heavy equipment concerns, excavation/open pit hazards, environmental / creek/waterway concerns, small tool hazards, lifting, container handling, boxes, label and hazard identification, hazard communication, medical emergency/first aid, local hospital information and directions to the hospital from the job site, and any available emergency assistance and capabilities in the area (911 etc.). Any imminent or perceived threats and emergency conditions required to take place, will be addressed in a step -wise and logical fashion to reduce and diminish the risk of harm to all responders and workers. The Work Plan will identify each task required, how the task will be performed, required personnel, the proper protective equipment necessary for the task, and the ultimate goal of the designated task. All potential health and safety hazards will be listed and the way to overcome each will be described. All tasks which are required to accomplish the objective are put in order of priority and each is described fully in the plan. Any changes or unanticipated scenarios must be recorded and written down in the plan during or before an adjustment to work procedures are made and then approved by the City. Once the team is clear on the safety requirements, Work Plan and goals, the work on the site is initiated. The initial work is for the team to unpack and layout all necessary PPE and equipment to be used. All team members divide up to suit up and address their respective tasks. Task 1 is for a two man crew to establish and build a decontamination station for this site. This station will involve three basins for proper decontamination. Water, soap, decon brushes, neutralization agents for corrosives, scrapers and a first aid kit will be stations included at the decontamination station. Trash bag liners are placed inside poly drums to collect wasted PPE, gloves, and other impacted wastes. Task 2 occurs simultaneously with Task 1. Delegated team members in charge of field instruments will unpack photo -ionization detector (P.I.D.), combustible gas detector, pH meter and paper, multi gas detector, etc., and will be field calibrated and prepared for use. Task 3 will occur simultaneously with 1 and 2. The team will unpack and roll out PPE items such as supplied air (SCBA's), high Level B barricade suits, chemical booties, nitrile gloves, and other safety gear. Page 2 of 12 PROPRIETARY Ct� Task 4 will occur simultaneously with task 1, 2, and 3. Task 4 requires the team to stage 55 -gallon poly and steel drums, hand pumps, 6 -mil poly sheeting, absorbents, 6 -mil drums liners, etc., to be used during the remediation operation. Once Tasks 1, 2, 3, and 4 are completed, the PM and Certified Industrial Hygienist will determine if atmosphere testing is required and where each testing station will be positioned. A review of all tasks by the PM is conducted and a survey of resources is performed. It is determined that a relief trailer will be required to deliver additional 55 -gallon poly open top drums, 55 -gallon steel open top drums and 85 -gallon over pack drums, 5 -gallon poly and steel drums, additional absorbent, and an air cascade system to refill SCBA bottles. It is also anticipated that the skid steer will be required for soil removal. The PM will make a call to the dispatcher who will order the materials, labor and equipment. Protect personally has in its inventory almost all critical equipment necessary in the normal course of hazmat emergency response services. If there is any additional equipment required, 24/7 on -call access is available by Protect rental equipment vendors. A call is made to the on -call response technicians for additional supplies and materials to be delivered to the site. An additional two on -call response technicians are dispatched to the site with the additional supplies and trailer mounted pressure washer. A call to Texas811 is made to obtain any underground line locations. We describe to Texas811 that it is an emergency line locate and urgent assistance is needed. The first site task is completed and the decontamination station is set up and ready to implement. This station is upwind and uphill of the site. Task 2 will involve the preparation of field meters and testing equipment and assurance equipment is ready. Task 3 involves organization of all equipment, material and safety gear and making easily accessible. Task 4 involves all expendable materials being staged and made easily accessible. The designated crewmembers suit up to first address the boundary of the site and cordon the site with hazard or caution tape. The crew suits up with SCBA and splash suits to tape off all areas of establishment such as the Exclusion Zone, Decontamination Corridor and the Support Zone. The PM records the time of all entrants who enter the site on air. This recordation is involved for the "on" air and "off" air times. All vehicles, equipment and supplies are moved to the designated areas within the Support Zone. The crew in the Level B PPE (hard hat, saranex suit, chemical boots, nitrile gloves, and SBCA) unroll 6 -mil poly sheeting and begin covering and securing the tops of the abandoned drums with the poly to prevent windblown removal. Once the poly has been deployed, a suppression of vapors or smells may subside or reduce. The same crew then enter the Exclusion Zone within the dry creek bed to closer investigate the impact and status of the liquids. The crew uses a photo -ionization detector (P.I.D.) and multi -gas detector to test the atmosphere above the spilled liquid to test for volatile compounds. pH paper strips are dropped into the liquid to determine corrosivity. Based upon the outcome of these sampling events, the next course of action is determined. The entry team returns through the decon station, is deconned thoroughly, and exits the station. All impacted PPE is disposed of while salvageable items such as air tanks, masks, boots, etc., are kept on ready with the air tanks being recharged to full capacity. Electrical generators and lights are installed at various locations across the site. Page 3 of 12 PROPRIETARY The information gathered from the initial sampling of the liquids in the dry creek are conveyed and recorded by the PM on his daily log. All activities conducted up to this point have been recorded by the PM on the same daily log. The Certified Industrial Hygienist, PM, or Health and Safety Officer will discuss the relevant findings and new information learned from the initial entry and confers this information to the City. Any changes in action or protection would then be determined and if so, conveyed to all authorized parties onsite. A record of the deviation or change is made in the Site Safety Plan/ Work Plan and presented to the City for approval. The CIH directs monitoring stations be placed at certain locations outside the Exclusion Zone for atmospheric monitoring purposes. The crew assists the CIH in installing all instruments needed. At this time, the atmospheric data sampling points are drawn in on the site map for accurate depiction. The second group consisting of two additional responders arrives on site and each is briefed on the HASP and Work Plan. All items are conveyed to the new team and each responder signs the plan indicating their complete understanding of the health and safety risks, imminent threats, and the goals of the Work Plan. The crew activates generators and lights to illuminate the site. At this point in time, there are now seven Protect responders on site; (1) one PM and (6) six response technicians, as well as (1) one Certified Industrial Hygienist. The PM organizes his team into three teams. One team will address the impact in the dry creek bed, the second team will begin working on the drum clutch, and the third team will serve as decontamination and support. This information is conveyed to the City representative. Team one suits up in Level B PPE and approaches the liquid pooled in the dry creek bed. Based upon the results of the pH testing, multi -gas and P.I.D. readings, the crew applies inert clay absorbent to the liquid to control and absorb the product. The absorbent is hand shoveled and rolled into the liquids at slow pace. The crew and PM watch closely to determine if any reaction is indicated by the introduction of inert clay. None is noted. The support team (team three) assists in the operation by supplying absorbent and stacking out the bags at the point where the Exclusion Zone boundary has been marked. This team is careful not to enter the Exclusion Zone. Team 1 continues to add inert absorbent until the entire pool of liquid is stabilized and has become non -mobile. A composite soil sample of the impacted soil and spent absorbent is collected for laboratory analysis. The sample collection is performed using EPA standard sample collection procedures and preservation methods (ice). The sample is logged in on a chain of custody sheet, labeled, and denoted on the site map as to the location of sample collection point. The crew shovels the material into 55 -gallon open top steel drums, lined with 6 -mil drum liners. The spent absorbent, as well as the impacted underlying soils, are hand excavated and placed into the 55 -gallon open top steel drums. Once the impacted soils have been removed based on visual examination, the crew seals the drums, labels each, and then collects a second sample of soil from underlying soils to determine the efficacy of the soil removal process. The team secures all drums and moves through the decontamination station for decon and PPE Page 4 of 12 PROPRIETARY removal. All damaged PPE is discarded and air tanks are refilled to full capacity. All hand tools (shovels, etc.) are set aside to be used in the drum field section of the site. Team 1 rests and rehabs for a short time. Team 2 is suited up in level B with SCBA tanks and enters the drum field section and carefully folds back a section of the 6mil poly sheeting to uncover several drums. This team inspects the drums visually and records any names, labels, markings, etc. and also marks each drum with a number. These numbers are in sequential order to assist in the identification of each drum. The I.D. numbers that are assigned to the drums is recorded and all data and information which can be gleaned from our on -site investigation is recorded. The drums condition is recorded as well. Each drum is investigated to determine its competency and painted with marker paint CODE. Green for competent drum, blue for questionable and red for leaker. With the first group of drums identified and investigated, the team then begins to transfer any open drums contents into a relief drum after testing the pH of the liquid. If corrosive indicators are found, the liquids are transferred into a poly drum. The relief drum is also given a unique assigned I.D. number which relates to the original drum from which its contents came from. This process continues until all the contents have been successfully transferred into competent containers and labeled accordingly. The relief drums are then moved off to the side and the empties drums are moved over to a staging area and lined with 6 mil drum liners. The team then moves toward the decon station and has their SCBA bottles replaced with full bottles of air. The team reenters the site and uncovers several more drums by folding back the poly. The first team is now ready for assignment after briefly resting from their first task. The "all clear" notice has come in from Texas811 and all the various utility companies in the area. No lines are near the location. All verifications are faxed to the office of Protect. This team checks with the CIH, and PM to determine whether supplied air is still required based upon the air monitoring procedures being conducted. The vapors and smells have dramatically subsided due in part to the 6mi1 poly sheeting covering and the cooler nighttime temperatures. A discussion is held with the City representatives regarding discontinuing the use of supplied air on the perimeter areas of the site. A decision is made to reduce the size of the Exclusion Zone and scale back the use of supplied air and to continue to require its use only inside the Exclusion Zone. A change in supplied air requirements is noted in the HASP and recorded in the plan. All responders are notified, as well as the PM to seek authorized approval. Photographs are taken. Team one then activates the skid steer and begins damming up the dry creek bed on the upper side to prevent any unexpected storm water inflow until we are able to review the laboratory sampling results of the excavated area. The skid steer also scrapes up soil and builds a berm of sufficient size to prevent future impact to the creek or other areas. Team two continues its investigation and transfer of materials from the damaged and abandoned drums into new drums. Only those drums found to be open or with holes in the containers are transferred and emptied. Those drums which are not open or leaking are inspected for signs of swelling or pressure. The Crew Page 5 of 12 PROPRIETARY Ct� would carefully and slowly open the small bungs, using non -sparking tools to check for pressure and relieve if any existed. Any drums with no bungs and only clamps will be set to the side and isolated. These will be dealt with at a later point. Team two would continue its operation until two (2) rounds of air had been used (approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour). At that point, the team would move through the decon station, and after thorough decontamination, remove all PPE, rehydrate and rest. Team three would then suit up and continue the operation of drum investigation and handling. This rotation of crewmembers allows for proper rest and rehydration to prevent cramps, heat stroke and stress. The drum investigation, recordation and transfer of materials using disposable hand pumps continue on until completed, rotating teams throughout the project. Teams one, two and three rotate making entry, to facilitate a safe operation. Decontamination for each team is conducted on each rotation. The CIH and PM continuously monitor the wind direction to ensure a safe operation and that the Support Zones are in the correct positions. The PM records the material and items used on the project. All emptied containers are placed on 6mi1 poly sheeting and covered while the relief containers are staged in another area by the entry teams. Those drums which were set to the side and unopened (because of no bungs or other problems) are now ready for attention. Two crewmembers dress out in high level B PPE to begin the opening of the remaining drums. The upgrade in personal protection is required due to the unknown material or unknown reactions which could occur while opening the unknown drums. Once the drums are slowly and carefully opened using non -sparking tools, the material found inside is investigated, all data recorded, and either transferred into new drums, consolidated with other identical waste in existing relief drums, or placed into appropriate over packs. The emptied waste drums are placed with the other emptied waste drums on 6 -mil poly sheeting and covered. The PM records the time "in" on air and the time "out" on air for each entrant. Once this operation is completed, the crewmembers move through the decon station and remove their PPE. The tools and materials are deconned and those items, such as suits, gloves, and booties, are discarded. The air tanks deconned and refilled to full capacity if needed. Photographs are taken. The crew discusses with the PM all relevant data, findings, and opinions on how to proceed with the rinsing and cleaning of the waste drums. This information is used to formulate the decon of the emptied waste drums. The resulting plan is discussed with the CIH and decided upon. This information and plan are described to the City representative. A conference is made with Protect's PM regarding status of job and next proposed steps. QA/QC points are discussed and confirmed. The crew reviews the waste drum list to ascertain information regarding its former contents, while the skid steer operator scrapes a shallow hole and lines the hole with 6 -mil poly sheeting. The crew completes the decon station for the waste drum decon operation. An accurate count of final consolidated drums is kept on a tally sheet for report purposes. The crew suits up in splash suits, hard hats, chemical boots, protective nitrile gloves, and full face splash shields to begin the decon of empty drums. The crew uses water based surfactants and water on petroleum based residuals. The crew uses a trailer mounted steam pressure washer to assist in the decontamination of the drums. The crew rinses the drums three times after thorough cleaning. As the rinse waters fill the decon trough, the waters are pumped out into 55- gallon drums for ultimate Page 6 of 12 PROPRIETARY Ct� testing and disposal using disposable hand pumps. Regarding the drums where corrosives were encountered, neutralization is conducted to ensure a pH range of 6-8 for safe handling. Once the process of bathing the solutions onto the drum surface and neutralization has occurred, the drum is triple rinsed and set to the side. All final triple rinsed drums are placed to the side until decon operation is completed. The drums are given a pH test using pH paper to ensure a neutral pH has been obtained. Several lined roll off boxes are ordered by the PM to be delivered to the site to stage and ultimately transport the triple rinsed emptied waste drums to a temporary and secure facility. The crews complete the decon of all fifty (50) waste drums. After triple rinsed and clean, the crew uses a skid steer to compact the drums flat and place the compacted drums into a roll off box for disposal. The PM develops a sampling program to test the contents of the drums and ensure that it meets the QA/QC methods in Protect's S.O.P. This sampling program is presented to the City for approval. The crew begins a sampling event to determine the contents of the relief drums if visual confirmation and identification is not possible. Identified drums are staged in a separate area from the unidentifiable drums. The contents of these drums are tested by field tests, Haz-Cat and pH tests, and sampled by composite methods, placed in sterile jars with Teflon lids, and labeled according to standard EPA protocol. Each sample is identified by the new unique I.D. number of each relief drum and labeled accordingly. The type of analysis required for each sample is discussed with the City or representative after discussing all recorded data and field instrument readings. Target tests and analyses are decided upon and written into the chain of custody and records of the PM. All samples are preserved on ice and placed in an ice chest for delivery to an accredited laboratory for testing. The turnaround time is determined by the City. The skid steer is decontaminated by using the pressure washer with soap and water. The drum decon area is disassembled after all rinse waters have been pumped over into drums, sampled, and labeled. The contaminated poly sheeting is rolled up and placed into 55 -gallon waste drums and labeled accordingly. The skid steer re -scrapes the (unaffected) decon area to return the site to original grade. The crew investigates the original drum clutch area by searching for residue and impact from the leaking drums. A second sampling program is devised to sample the soils beneath the original leaking drums. The PM develops the plan and ensures it meets with Protect's S.O.P. and QA/QC program. All visually apparent impacted soils are hand dug, placed in drums, as well as sampled prior to sealing the drum. These samples should represent the waste stream found within the drum of waste soils. These samples will also be submitted to the lab based on the same criteria used earlier to determine which analysis to run on the samples. A grid is measured off over the original drum field and dry creek bed in order to test and sample the soils. Soil samples are collected, using standard EPA collection methods, at intervals described satisfactory by the City. The soil samples are collected from the surface and to a depth which best ensures that no residue or impact would have exceeded. These samples are preserved as before, and logged in on a chain Page 7 of 12 PROPRIETARY of custody to be tested. A background sample or samples are collected based upon City requests. All waste drums are loaded into a roll off box to be shipped off site to a secure and temporary staging facility until the analysis of the drums are returned by the laboratory and a proper identification or characterization can be made. A manifest for each roll off box shipment is completed to keep a record of all items leaving the site. The crushed drums with the second roll off box are moved offsite under manifest to the staging yard. The site is investigated and a temporary construction fence and caution tape is constructed around the site to prevent trespassers. All equipment is rigged down and loaded. The CIH removes all monitoring devices and prepares the samples for analysis and completes the field paperwork. The crew rigs down and loads out the emergency response trailers, load the skid steer and remove all the items from the site except for the construction fencing. Photographs at the site are taken. The crew returns to the office. The crew unloads, restocks, and completes final paperwork, job logs, and downloads photographs. A total of ten (10) 55 -gallon steel drums were generated on this operation. Contents are unknown and unproven but are suspected to be petroleum based materials. Drums are labeled 1-10 and are staged in one (1) roll off box at the Protect staging yard. Samples will be submitted to laboratory. A total of five (5) 85 -gallon steel over pack drums were generated on this operation. Contents are unknown and unproven but are suspected to be petroleum based materials. Drums are labeled 1-5 and contents are noted (e.g., 2 5 -gallon, 1 55 -gallon, 1 30 -gallon, etc.). These over packs are also staged in the same roll off box and are at the Protect Transportation staging yard. Samples will be submitted to laboratory. A total of three (3) 55 -gallon poly drums were generated on this operation. Contents are unknown and unproven but are suspected to be non -hazardous corrosive liquids with a pH of 11. Drums are labeled 1-3, are staged in the same roll off box at the Protect staging yard. Samples will be submitted to laboratory. A total of forty (40) 55 -gallon triple rinsed steel drums were deconned, rinsed, and crushed. These were the original waste abandoned drums. These crushed drums are in a lined roll off box and will be sent to a licensed metal recycler for recycling. A total of three (3) 55 -gallon steel drums were generated containing decon rinsate waters from the waste drum decon operation. These are located in the roll off box with the other wastes. They are labeled as such and coded with a label of 1-3. They are currently staged at the Protect staging yard. Samples are being held until the contents of the original drums are determined. A total of three (3) 55 -gallon steel drums were generated during this operation containing unknown and unproven impacted soils that were found beneath the drums and poly but are suspected to be petroleum based liquids. No pH problem. Drums are labeled A through C and are staged in the roll off box with the other wastes. This roll off box is staged at the Protect Transportation staging yard. Samples are being held until the contents of the original drums are determined. Then determination can be made regarding the waste soils as to how disposal can be accomplished. A grand total of the entire waste stream generated on this operation is nineteen (19) 55 -gallon drums, five (5) 85 -gallon over packs, and one (1) roll off box full of crushed triple rinsed drums. Page 8 of 12 PROPRIETARY The collected samples will be transferred to the laboratory. Any MSDS or labels found on containers at the site will be searched for and verified. A work up on the identification of waste will begin with the use of job notes, photographs, field meter test results, and laboratory analysis. A discourse will take place with City or representative regarding assumptions and findings. In this hypothetical event, the lab samples are rushed. Profile characterization and waste identification may be expedited and transportation and disposal might be taking place within a one week period of time. The individual waste streams would either go Class II, Class I, non-haz or hazardous, based on the sample lab results. The triple rinsed waste drums will be manifested into a registered facility and recycled. All Class I non-haz petroleum special wastes will be shipped to a Class I non-haz trench located at an approved and licensed landfill capable of accepting Class I non -hazardous soils/waste. All drums will be labeled using the appropriate labels on the top and sides of the drums during the transportation phase. The remaining waste streams will be profiled into the appropriate facilities licensed to accept such wastes and if accepted, will be manifested, transported, and disposed of properly. If any of these wastes are determined as hazardous wastes as defined in 40 CFR 262.11 of Federal Regulations, they will be shipped and disposed of by haz-waste disposal subcontractor and sent to the most appropriate facilities registered to handle such wastes. These TCEQ approved haz waste subcontractors will provide the waste profile manifests and LDR's required by the State. Notice and approval will be sought by City prior to any final shipments for disposal. The laboratory results will be processed regarding the soil sampling to confirm proper impact removal of soil from the original site. These results will be documented on a soil sampling map and presented to the City representative for review. If a City representative deems the site as "clear" no further soil removal will be required. If notification is given by the City, after reviewing the lab results, the order to remove the fencing will be given and a crew will quickly return to the site to disassemble and remove the fence, take photographs, and return to the office. The project file, including job logs, crew sheets, materials sheets, photographs, analytical information, maps, site safety plans, CIH's atmospheric analysis and test reports, manifests, profiles, etc., will be organized and placed in a Final Report form which will be turned over to the City for review and comment. This Final Report summarizes Protect's actions and observations while on site. The preparation of this report and review by the PM takes approximately two weeks. The invoice will be prepared reflecting the daily work performed on the site, as well as the disposal costs, analytical, and other subcontractor costs. The review by the PM and administration usually takes two to three days after the work has been completed. Any additions that the City wishes to include in the Final Report will be discussed and amended if needed. The invoice will be carefully reviewed and, if approved, will then be sent to the City. Page 9 of 12 PROPRIETARY 8.2.2 PROCESS USED TO CONDUCT ON -SITE HAZARD CATEGORIZATION (HAZCAT) ANALYSIS OF WASTE Methods of identification of unknown wastes can vary and are dependent on a multitude of factors such as time, potential danger to the public and the surrounding environment and urgency of waste removal. Primary steps of identification of waste involve preliminary visual observation. Container type, location and possible markings and labels are considered. Once visual observations are noted, careful approach with proper personal protective equipment is made. Drums and liquid containers can be carefully sampled and resealed in order to conduct basic field screening techniques with various meters and pH papers. Further analysis can then be conducted with a haz-cat kit in order to obtain basic information that can refine the ultimate laboratory analysis on the sample. Unknown solids and unknown liquids can be tested with a degree of accuracy with the haz-cat kit. Unknown solid samples are prepared in a sample dish or vial and undergo a battery of reagent and physical tests to determine sulfides, metals, pH, peroxides, oxidizers, acids, pesticides, salts, soaps, arsenics, carbonates, hydroxides, etc. The analyst performs a step-by-step process and follows a flow chart to isolate the possible category. Unknown liquid samples are also prepared in a sample jar or vial and also undergo a battery of reagents, and physical tests to determine hydroxides, sulfides, hydrozine, ammonia, ethers, acids, oxidizers, MEK, pesticides, metals, iodine, aniline, ketone, alcohols, phenols etc. Again, the analyst performs a step-by-step process and follows a different flow chart to isolate the possible category. It is important to note that most haz-cat analysis is only effective when the waste is in pure form and not cross -contaminated. Multiple chemical constituents usually comprise a waste or abandoned product, which makes the identification difficult or possibly unreliable. Haz-cat analysis is only a screening technique and is unable to be used as a definite isolation and identification when it becomes necessary to dispose of the categorized waste. Unlabeled containers, drums and accumulations of unknown substances should always be considered hazardous and handled accordingly until positive identification is made and only then should the waste be packaged and transported appropriately.

PROPRIETARY CORPORATE HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN 1.0 INTRODUCTION This document describes the health and safety guidelines developed by Protect Environmental Services, Inc. to address emergency and rapid responder activities at the various sites and facilities under contract. The purpose is to protect response personnel, visitors, and the general public from physical harm and exposure to regulated and hazardous materials and/or wastes. The procedures and guidelines contained herein were based upon the best available information provided by both either the client or the information gathered by the reconnaissance activities as the spill site is assessed prior to commencing the cleanup phase of the response task. Specific requirements for each spill site will be prepared under the standard site Health and Safety Plan (HASP) and presented to the spill response team prior to the commencement of cleanup activities, as new information is received or conditions change, both the site supervisor and health and safety officer will revise and amend the HASP and procedures to address the site - specific conditions. A written amendment will document all changes made to the plan. Any amendment in this plan will be included with the original HASP. Where appropriate, OSHA standards or other guidelines will be cited and applied. All work practiced and procedures implemented on site are designed to minimize worker contact with regulated and/or hazardous materials and to reduce the possibility of physical injury or exposure. All work will be performed in accordance with applicable Federal 29CFR 1910 and 1926 Health and Safety Regulations. The purpose of this Site Safety and Health Plan overview is to set forth, in an orderly and logical fashion, appropriate safety procedures to be followed during on site emergency and immediate response activities by Protect Environmental. During on -site activities, Protect will maintain an on -going safety process and therefore will continually instruct, promote, and prepare all responders for their positions. It is through this work process that Protect will achieve a safe work environment. Protect's endeavor is to provide effective and timely environmental solutions, while maintaining the industry benchmark for health and safety for each project. With this as our goal, the following health and safety program will be implemented by all personnel for each site response to which Protect responds. "Safety is a state of mind", therefore all responders have been encouraged to possess a positive attitude towards safety. Protect has educated, trained, and enforced safety on all projects to date and will continue to stress the importance of proper health and safety procedures at each of its response sites. As part of this dedication to safety, regular safety training is conducted, as well as the on -site safety meetings that are held prior to commencement of any response activities to ensure that all personnel understand site conditions and operating procedures, to ensure personal protective equipment is being used correctly and to address worker health and safety concerns. 1.1 Site Health and Safety Plan Acknowledgement The Protect Project Manager or a designated representative shall be responsible for informing all individuals in conjunction with the incident commander entering the spill site as to the contents of this plan and ensuring that each person signs the HASP, acknowledging hazards and responsibility while on -site. By signing the HASP, individuals recognize the potential hazards PROPRIETARY n present on -site and the policies and procedures required to minimize exposure or adverse effects of these hazards. Attached are sample blanks of Protect's Site Specific Health and Safety Plans which are prepared prior to commencement of all response activities. This health and safety orientation is to provide the responder with a site -specific Hz -Corn Program. This documents in writing, the hazardous/regulated chemicals present on -site, and summarizes the physical and health effects of the spilled materials along with methods of preventing or eliminating exposure. The Site - Specific Health and Safety Plan meeting will then be held along with the MSDS and/or technical information available at the supervisor's or incident commander's post along with the job logs and other spill related documents. Each HASP upon completion of the spill cleanup is retained in the job file with the chemical documentation. 2.0 PERSONNEL TRAINING All responders for Protect are required to attend forty (40) hours of classroom training on safe work practices at hazardous waste sites, HazWoper Training in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, Section (e). Then each subsequent year, all responders receive eight (8) hours of refresher training in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, Sections (e) and (q), on their initial forty (40) hour classroom topics with the anniversary date of the individual's forty (40) hour class. All responders for Protect are also required to attend twenty-four (24) hours of classroom and practical scenario enactments in Emergency Response Procedures in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 Section (p) 8iii; and, sixteen (16) hours of Confined Space Training with annual refreshers in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146, Section K (ii). Regular periodic training is also provided to all response personnel which includes: Hearing Conservation, 29 CFR 1910.95; Personal Protective Equipment 29 CFR 1910.132; Eye and Face Protection, 29 CFR 1910.133; Respiratory Protection, 29 CFR 1910.134 (APR); Head Protection, 29 CFR 1910.135; Foot Protection, 29 CFR 1910.136; Hand Protection 29 CFR 1910.138; Portable Extinguisher Training, 29 CFR 1910.157; Excavation Safety, 29 CFR 1926.650-652; Blood borne Pathogens, 29CFR 1910.1030; Lead Awareness Training 29 CFR 1926.62 Appendix A; Worker Right to Know, 29 CFR 1910.1200; and Contractor Training under PSM, 29 CFR 1910.19 (f)(4) and (h), as well as other courses. Supervisors are required to have eight (8) hours of training for the safe management of hazardous waste sites in compliance with 29 CFR 1910.120. Protect personnel receive initial and annual recertification of first aid / CPR training. In addition, the following criteria shall be met: • All response personnel will receive site specific training on routes of exposure and adverse health effects associated with the chemicals listed on the HASP for that particular spill or release. • Personnel newly assigned to hazardous waste work will receive three (3) days of on the job training by a Project Manager. Each person entering the site shall sign a statement attesting to the fact that they have read and understand the Health and Safety Plan. PROPRIETARY n 3.0 MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE Pursuant to OSHA regulations as detailed in 29 CFR 1910.120, all Protect response personnel are required to have a pre -employment medical examination and annual update physicals. Documentation generated during the physical is reviewed and maintained by Protect's industrial physician. Based upon the physician's recommendations, all personnel are rated as to their appropriateness for responses based upon the baseline established by the pre -employment physical. Due to the nature of the confidential medical information, Protect's management is provided information stating whether an employee is suitable for service as a responder, and is informed only when an employee possesses a deficiency or chemical incompatibility which may exclude them from active participation in selected spills and/or releases. All such records are maintained by Protect's corporate headquarters under lock and key separate from the safety and training records. In the event of an injury, exposure, or suspected exposure to a contaminant, the employee is removed from the site and immediately transported for medical attention or schedule for a special physical examination. The physical examination will focus on the specific contaminant and the associated target organs as well as blood and/or urine tests for comparison to the previously established baselines determined by the industrial physician during the pre- employment and annual follow-up physicals. Under specific conditions, monitoring may be conducted prior to commencement of specific jobs with exit physicals conducted on each employee upon the jobs completion. In addition, a copy of the certificates for training, refreshers, first aid, CPR, respirator fit tests, medical fitness, and other pertinent information will be available upon request. 4.0 DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY Protect endeavors to provide a safe and healthy work environment for its employees and clients and the general public which might come in contact with our operations in the normal course of our response work. It is the objective of Protect to maintain a productive and efficient work place. Therefore, in accordance with laws and employment practices common to our business, Protect prohibits the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, use, or being under the influence of a controlled substance in the work place. Any employee found to be in violation of this policy shall be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. Protect has created a drug and alcohol policy in accordance with the Drug Free Work Place Act of 1988, the U.S. Department of Transportation, and the Transportation Safety Institute, and mandated by 49 CFR Part 199 and Part 40. All applicants for employment are advised of Protect's Drug and Alcohol policy. A NIDA test is required for all new employees as a condition of employment and is included in the pre -employment physical examination. Responders who refuse a medical screening for drugs and alcohol may be denied employment with Protect. The Drug and Alcohol Policy allows Protect to require responders to submit to a drug and alcohol without prior notice. As a condition of this policy, twenty-five (25) percent of our responders are randomly selected for unannounced tests each quarter. Protect may also conduct testing during routine physicals, upon reasonable suspicion, or after an incident or traffic accident. Protect may refuse to hire an applicant who does not sign an agreement to consent to future drug and/or alcohol testing in accordance with company policy. All responders are expected to abide by the terms of the Drug and Alcohol Policy as a condition of employment. In addition, all responders are required to notify their immediate supervisor if PROPRIETARY they are involved or convicted under any criminal drug statutes or violation of a controlled substance occurring in the work place no later than five (5) days after conviction. Should a responder be convicted under any criminal drug statute for a violation occurring in the work place, Protect may at its discretion, take appropriate action against the responder, up to and including immediate discharge, and/or require the responder to satisfactorily participate in a drug abuse assistance program. Should a responder's drug test yield "positive" results, the responder may be suspended from work for any period of time deemed appropriate or the responder may be discharged. If within thirty (30) days the responder submits to a drug test which yields "negative" results, the responder may be reinstated if an appropriate position is available. Should a responder receive "positive" results on two drug tests, the associate shall be terminated from employment without option for rehire. The following guidelines are mandatory for all Protect responders: 1. The use of illegal or controlled substances without a proper prescription is prohibited. 2. All responders are prohibited from being under the influence of alcohol, illegal drugs, or any drug not legally prescribed during work hours. 3. The use, sale, purchase, possession, or transfer of any controlled substance other than use as prescribed by a physician while performing company business, on or off company premises, is strictly prohibited and grounds for immediate dismissal. 4. No alcoholic beverages will be bought or consumed on company premises except in connection with company sponsored events. Violations will result in disciplinary action including dismissal. 5. Responders suspected of being under the influence of alcohol or any illegal drug during work hours, will be suspended immediately and will be required to submit themselves for drug screening immediately upon request. The Protect Drug and Alcohol Policy serves as protection for both Protect and its clients. Therefore, compliance with the stated guidelines is mandatory and will help to ensure a safe, healthy work environment and reduce substance abuse related accidental injuries to personnel and property. Copies of the complete Drug and Alcohol Policy are available for review at Protect's headquarters in Haltom City, Texas. 5.0 ACCIDENT REPORTING Protect is guided by an established safety policy. This policy is based on a sincere desire to eliminate personal injuries, occupational illnesses, and damage to equipment and property, as well as to protect fellow responders and the general public whenever the public comes in contact with or is affected by the company's work. The HASP contains the necessary information should a call for emergency personnel be necessary, as well as local phone numbers and the address and instructions to the nearest hospital. First aid kits can be found in each of Protect's response trailers and vehicles. Protect shall provide a verbal report of all accidents, as soon as the injured responder's immediate needs are attended to, a verbal report of all injuries which require medical attention or loss of work time. A written report to client's safety inspector shall be made available with a reasonable time frame in order to assist the client with any possible investigation. In the event of severe injury, death, or extensive property damage, Protect shall notify and assist client's investigation team during the inquiry. Protect shall maintain a log of occupational injuries and illnesses as required by federal laws in accordance with the OSHA record keeping requirements of 29 CFR 1904.2. PROPRIETARY n Completed accident documentation appropriate for the accident shall be maintained by Protect's corporate office and includes the following forms/reports summaries: Employer's First Report of Injury or Illness, Owner's Contract Injury Summary Report, Medical Treatment Authorization, Major Incident Report, Automobile Loss Notice, General Liability Loss Notice, Motor Carrier Accident Report, First Aid Register, Monthly Accident Analysis, and Monthly Preventable Accident Summary. Copies of the Employer's First Report of Injury or Illness shall be submitted to owner's safety inspector and construction foreman. Safety should never be sacrificed for production. It must be considered an integral part of quality control, cost reduction, and job efficiency. Every supervisor will be held accountable for the safety performance demonstrated by the responders under their supervisor. Our goal is the total elimination of accidents from our operations. There are three sound reasons for this goal: 1. No endeavor is worthy if it should cause human suffering through disability injury or loss of life. 2. A good safety record reflects the quality of management, supervisor, and the work force. It also serves to promote business and thereby contributes to the continuing growth and success of the company. 3. Poor accident experience increases costs and results in loss of profits. Our policy is to accomplish work in the safest possible manner consistent with good work practices, management at every level is charged with the task of translating this policy into positive actions. If an injury occurs on the job, no matter how minor, the supervisor is to be notified immediately so that appropriate medical treatment can be administered. As soon as possible thereafter, an accident report will be completed by the responsible supervisor. Failure to report an accident immediately after it happens may result in dismissal and/or delay or denial of Worker's Compensation benefits. All accidents and near accidents will be immediately investigated by the responsible project supervisor, the company safety officer, and management. Investigations will be conducted in accordance with the investigation format outlined in Protect's accident investigation report. Information will be obtained from witnesses, the first report of injury, the victim, and other sources which may be available. SPILL SITE SPECIFIC SAFETY ISSUES This portion of the Corporate Health and Safety guideline has been prepared as a guide to assist supervisors and response personnel during the normal course of their job. This is not a training manual or a set of standard operating procedures. Due to the nature of emergency and immediate response tasks, there is no substitute for prior experience and training. This is due to the variable nature of the surrounding situation and the high number of potential variables present in any response situation. 6.0 CHEMICAL HAZARD INFORMATION Chemical hazard information will be provided on a site -by -site basis to the responder as it becomes known. Commonly, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are requested and provided by the client prior to Protect's beginning a response. In circumstances where the identity of the PROPRIETARY n spilled material is known, the use of company reference materials is also utilized to better characterize the hazards and specific traits of the spilled or released material. Should the spill be an unknown, then circumstances will dictate to collection of chemical hazard information. This will be collected using equipment and methodologies to begin to determine the class and nature of the unknown spilled material. The collection of such information will dictate the need for specific PPE and respiratory protection. 6.1 Air Monitoring Air monitoring will be implemented to identify and quantify airborne levels of hazardous or toxic substances emanating from a spill location. Air monitoring devices such as photoionization detectors (PID), flame ionization detectors (FID), multi -gas detectors measuring percent oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, LEL meters used to measure combustible atmospheres, Mercury Vapor Meter, Chlorine Vapor Meter, can all continuously monitor levels for selected contaminants and hazardous atmospheres allowing response supervisors to quantify employee health action levels. Also available are selected colorimetric sample tubes used on a one-time basis to measure for single contaminants and determine a range of concentration. Such concentrations are targeted to coincide with health -based standards (PELs) for those contaminants being measured. The final protection for those responding to an unknown contaminant is adequate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Potentially hazardous unknowns or those with low STELs and IDLHs should be treated with the utmost caution and respect with regard to potential exposure and respiratory protection. 7.0 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT The following is a brief description of the personal protective equipment which Protect stocks on its response trailers and may be required during response activities. The U.S. EPA terminology for protective equipment will be used; Levels A, B, C, and D. The default PPE to report to work and worn during initial site arrival activities will be Level D. All decisions to downgrade from Level B to C or D must be accompanied by air monitoring results. The supervisor/incident commander must be advised of on -site decisions to downgrade prior to commencement. All decisions must be documented with an addendum to the HASP. Respiratory protective equipment shall be NIOSH approved and use shall conform to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 requirements. Protect maintains a written respirator program detailing selection, use, cleaning, maintenance, and storage within its corporate Standard Operation Procedures (SOP) Handbook and Training Manuals. A copy of the SOP Handbook and Training Manuals are provided each employee and are available at Protect's headquarters in Haltom City, Texas. Equipment to protect the body against contact with known or anticipated chemical hazards has been divided into the following four (4) categories according to the degree of protection afforded. 7.1 Level A • The extremely hazardous substance requires the highest level of protection for skin, eyes, and the respiratory system; PROPRIETARY n • Substances with a high degree of hazard to the skin are known or suspected; • Chemical concentrations are known to be above IDLH levels; or • Biological hazardous requiring Level A are known or suspected. Protective Gear Type Supplied Air Cascade w/ Grade D Air or MSA Air Pack 5 -Minute Egress MSA Air pack Protective Coveralls Saranex Suit Inner Gloves Latex Boot Covers Rubber Outer Chemical Glove Nitrile/Petroflex Outer Work Gloves Cotton Safety Shoes/Boots Steel Toe Leather & Rubber Over Boots Standard Hard Hat Respiratory Inserts Other 7.3 Level C • The same level of skin protection as Level B, but a lower level of respiratory protection is required. • The types of air contaminant have been identified, concentrations measured, and an air -purifying respirator is available that can remove contaminants; or, • The substance has adequate warning properties and all criteria for the use of APR respirators have been met. Protective Gear Air Purifying Respirator Cartridges Escape Masks Protective Coveralls Inner Gloves Boot Covers Outer Chemical Gloves Outer Work Gloves Safety Shoes/Boots Hard Hat Respiratory Inserts Other 7.4 Level D The atmosphere contains no known hazard; and Type MSA Full -Face APR HEPA/Organic/Acid Gas/Other MSA F Non -Porous Tyvek/Saranex Rubber Nitrile/Petroflex Cotton Steel Toe Leather & Rubber Over Boots Standard • Work functions preclude splashes, immersion or the potential for unexpected inhalation of, or contact with, hazardous concentrations of harmful chemicals. Protective Gear Type Protective Coveralls Non -Porous Tyvek/Saranex Rain Suit Rubber Coated Cotton Boot Covers Rubber Work Gloves Cotton/Leather Safety Shoes/Boots Steel Toe Leather & Rubber Over Boots PROPRIETARY n Hard Hat Standard Face Shield Acrylic Safety Glasses Uvex Other In conditions where a hazard exists, the ideal work environment would be achieved by the use of engineering controls such that the control utilized would either completely remove all hazardous materials/conditions from the work place or fully isolate the responder from same. An example would be in a confined space entry, the use of ventilation to eliminate an asphyxiant atmosphere. Whenever engineering control can be proven effective and feasible, they should and will be initiated. Any PPE issued to a responder by the company is the personal responsibility of that responder. It is their responsibility to ensure that it is kept safe and in clean condition, and is in their possession at job sites. When in disrepair, it must be returned for repair or replacement. While PPE reduces the potential for contact with harmful substances, ensuring the health and safety of the responders requires, in addition, safe work practices, proper decontamination, site entry protocols, and other safety consideration. Together these protocols establish a combined approach for reducing potential harm to response personnel. 8.0 STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES The primary purpose for site controls is to establish the hazardous area perimeter, to reduce migration of contaminants into clean areas, and to prevent access or exposure to hazardous materials by unauthorized persons. Upon arrival to the spill/release, the site should be secured or guarded to prevent unauthorized entry. 8.1 Support Zone The uncontaminated support zone will be the area outside the exclusion and decontamination zones, yet within the immediate perimeter of the site. This area is used for staging of materials, parking of vehicles, sanitation facilities, and receipt of deliveries. Personnel entering this zone may include delivery personnel, visitors, law enforcement, etc., who will not necessarily be permitted in the exclusion zone. All personnel arriving in the support zones will upon arrival report to the command post or incident commander. Where possible, the ability to limit access to a single point or area from the clean zone to the decontamination zone is desirable. 8.2 Decontamination Zone The decontamination zone will provide a location for removal of contaminated personal protective equipment and final decontamination of personnel and equipment. All response personnel and equipment should exit via the decon area. The decontamination zone is a buffer zone between contaminated and support areas. Due to the nature of the response activities, the site zones maybe mobile. The decontamination zone will always be adjacent to the exclusion, but the exact location will be dependent upon actual site activities. 8.3 Exclusion Zone The exclusion zone will be the area most affected by the spill or release. Entry to and exit from this zone will be made through the contamination reduction corridor. Exit from the exclusion PROPRIETARY zone should be as necessary accompanied by personnel and equipment decontamination. While in the exclusion zone, personnel will wear the appropriate PPE and refrain from horseplay, smoking, dipping, eating, drinking, and generating open flames.8.4 General Field Safety The following guidelines have been implemented and are constantly monitored and reviewed, so to fully comply with Protect's objective of keeping a safe and healthy work environment for all associates: • All visitors must be sent to the incident commander/command post and/or referred to the Protect supervisor. • Site entrance into the exclusion zone will be limited to essential personnel. • Whenever possible, avoid contact with contaminated surfaces. Do not kneel on the ground to set up equipment. Stay away from any waste drums, overturned vehicles, and chemical totes unless necessary. • Eating, drinking, or smoking is permitted only in designated areas in the support zone. • Hands and face must be thoroughly washed upon leaving the decon area. • No beards or other facial hair that interferes with respirator fit is allowed on response personnel, each responder may be required to work in certain situations requiring APRs or SCBAs. • All equipment must be decontaminated or discarded upon exit from the exclusion zone, as determined by the Protect supervisor. • All personnel exiting the seclusion zone must go through the appropriate decontamination procedures. • Personnel will only travel in vehicles where individual seats for each occupant are provided. Seat belt will be worn as required. • Fire extinguisher will be available on site and in all areas with increased fire danger such as the refueling area. • Employees will not interfere with or tamper in any way with air monitoring equipment (if utilized). • Backhoes or other equipment with booms shall not be operated within 10 feet of any electrical conductor. • Visitor log will be maintained at the command post or with the incident commander. All personnel coming on site will sign in and out on the HASP. • The Protect supervisor will allow only those individuals authorized to enter the site. If unauthorized members of the public are found on site, contact the project manager immediately and do not leave the individual unattended. • Visitors are not allowed in the work area without authorization and not without appropriate levels of PPE as determined by the site safety personnel. Access to the spill site is restricted to authorized representatives. All others will be cleared by the incident commander and receive authorization to enter the site. • The buddy system is mandatory at anytime that personnel are working in the exclusion zone, remote areas, or when conditions present a risk to personnel. The buddy system requires at least two (2) people who work as a team and maintain audible and/or visual contact while operating in the exclusion zone. • For communication, radio will be used on site. The crew should remain in constant radio or visual contact while on site. The site evacuation signal will be three (3) blasts on the air or vehicle horn. PROPRIETARY 9.0 DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES In general, everything that enters the spill area or exclusion zone must either be decontaminated or discarded upon its exit from the exclusion zone. All personnel, including state and local officials must enter and exit through the decontamination zone. This becomes of greater concern when the spilled materials possess greater degrees of risk, as opposed to fuel spills. Prior to demobilization, contaminated equipment will be decontaminated and inspected prior to its relocation in the support zone. Any materials generated during decontamination will be contained along with the spill cleanup waste and disposed in conjunction with the same. The extent of the decontamination will depend upon the nature of the spilled/released materials. The SOPs and Training Manuals provide detailed information regarding decontamination station setups and procedures. Decontamination solutions will depend upon the contaminant released, hence another reason for field identification of the spilled material. Remember, eating, drinking, chewing gum/tobacco, smoking, or any practice that increases probability of hand to mouth transfer and/or ingestion is prohibited in any area where the possibility of contamination exists. 10.0 CONFINED SPACE ENTRY A confined space is defined as a space or work area not designed or intended for normal human occupancy, having limited means of ingress and egress. Examples include tanks, vats, drain vaults, cisterns, etc. All confined spaces are assumed to require entry permits until proven otherwise. In many responses, confined space entries are necessary to recover lost product which has entered storm drains or vaults. No responder will enter a confined space without a completed, signed, valid confined space entry permit. The attached permit and flow chart have been prepared; their completion is required prior to entry into a confined space. Copies of the confined space SOPs, training documents, and responder certifications are available for review at Protect's corporate headquarters. All responders have successfully completed confined space training and rescue procedures and attend annual refresher training. Under no circumstances shall any employee enter into a confined space that has not been tested or cleared. Any responder who remains uncomfortable upon entering the space, e.g. it smells odd, etc., shall exit the space and inform the site supervisor immediately. The responder's safety is paramount and no job is worth the loss of life potential. 11.0 EXCAVATION SAFETY 11.1 Excavation Decisions Spill cleanup and remediation activities at the site may require excavation of contaminated media from various depths. All open excavations will conform to the excavation requirements prescribed in OSHA 29 CFR, Subpart P, and Parts 1926.650 through 1926.652. It may be necessary to contact the utility companies, property owners, or line locator services to determine the exact location of any underground infrastructure installations or utility lines in the area. If the utility companies, owners, or line locator services cannot or do not respond in a PROPRIETARY timely manner, or should they be unable to establish the exact location of the underground installations, the excavation may proceed with extreme caution. In this situation, Protect must provide its responders with detection equipment or other safe and acceptable means to locate the underground installations. Remove or where possible adequately support objects in the excavation area that could create a hazard to Protect responders or the public. These may include rubble, debris, stockpiles, lamps, signage, etc. Classify the type of soil at the site or right of way as either stable rock, Type A, Type B, or Type C soil. The soil classification, as defined in Appendix A to 1926.652, must be made based upon the results of at least one visual and at least one manual analysis conducted by the Competent Person. If the excavation is less than 20 feet in total depth, select the maximum allowable side slope from Table A. If the excavation is less than 20 feet in total depth and is in layered soil, refer to Table B for the maximum allowable slope of each material layer. If the total depth of the excavation exceeds 20 feet, a protective system must be designed and approved by a professional engineer. 11.2 Competent Person As defined in 29 CFR 1926.650, the competent person is one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings, or working conditions that are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to employees. The competent person has the authority to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate such hazards. Protect employs several geologists who will be designated as the competent person based upon the nature of their education and experience. The competent person shall be responsible for inspecting all open excavation at spill sites. Inspections shall note the integrity of the side slopes and side walls and insure that only trained and knowledgeable responders are supporting the excavation operations. 12.0 EQUIPMENT SAFETY The following equipment safety standards are applicable for equipment and vehicles owned or leased by Protect and its subcontractors. Standards are divided into two categories, heavy equipment and vehicles. Heavy equipment includes rubber tired and track type excavation and materials handling equipment and haul trucks. Vehicles include trucks, passenger vans, and cars. 12.1 Heavy Equipment All equipment left unattended at night adjacent to roadways and highways in normal use shall be parked in such as fashion as to take advantage of the existing barricades, guard rails, and obstacle warnings already in place as part of the highway. Where not possible, such equipment should be protected by supplemental warning barricades with appropriate lights and reflectors to ensure maximum visibility. Bulldozer blades, end -loader buckets, dump bodies, and similar equipment shall either be fully lowered or blocked when being serviced or not in use. All controls should be in a neutral position, with motor stopped and brakes set. PROPRIETARY n All equipment shall be equipped with an audible reverse signal alarm. The alarm shall be distinguishable from the surrounding noise level, and shall be maintained in operable condition. All equipment with operator cabs shall be equipped with windshields and power wipers. Cab glass shall be safety glass, or equivalent, that does not visually distort. Cracked and broken glass shall be replaced. Seat belts shall be provided in all equipment. Operators will be required to wear seat belts while the equipment is in operation. Seat belts are not required for equipment which is designed for stand-up operation. No riders. Only equipment operators will be allowed on the equipment when it is in operation. Responders will not be allowed to ride on the equipment. Except where electrical distribution and transmission lines have been de -energized and visibly grounded at the point of work or where insulating barriers have been erected to prevent physical contact with the lines, equipment shall be operated in accordance with the following: (i) lines rated 50 kV or less — minimum clearance between lines and any part of the equipment shall be 10 feet; (ii) lines over 50 kV — minimum clearance between lines and any part of the equipment shall be 10 feet plus 0.4 inches for each 1 kV over 50 kV; (iii) a person "a spotter" shall be designated to observe clearance of the equipment and give timely warning for all operations where it is difficult for the operator to maintain the desired clearance by visual means. All rubber tire or tracked equipment owned or leased by Protect as well as any subcontractor, shall be equipped with roll-over protection structures which meet the minimum performance standards, as prescribed in 296 CFR 1926.1001 and 1926.1002. 12.2 Vehicles All vehicles will conform to the minimum inspection standards as necessary to comply with the State of Texas Over the Road Vehicle Inspection Codes. Seat belts meeting DOT regulations shall be maintained in all vehicles. Protect crew will be required to wear seat belts when operating or riding as passengers in company vehicles. Responders will not ride on tailgates, running boards, or fenders. When necessary, responders riding outside the truck cab must be seated inside the truck bed. Loads — materials and tools will be firmly secured to prevent movement when transported in the same compartment as Protect responders.

Increased awareness and training is important for workers without proper acclimatization, conducting strenuous work, and wearing heavy/non-breathable PPE. The Heat Index is indicated as Low, Moderate, High, and Very High/Extreme. Cold weather related injuries/illnesses, Hypothermia, Trench foot, and Frostbite, can occur in wet, windy, and chilly environments and can be just as dangerous as heat related injuries/illnesses due to the lowering of the body's core temperature. PROPRIETARY Review Date: 07/11/2018 Traffic concerns: Heavy traffic may require lane closure or postponement of job. All personnel are required to wear reflective vests and have hard hat reflective tape in place while working on roadways and high traffic areas. Utilization of emergency flashers, road cones, and flashing signs will be determined by Site Supervisor. Contact the following companies for road closure equipment: For Road/Lane Closure see approved contact listing. * Emergency Lighting on vehicles shall be operated to notify passerby that emergency crews are working in the area. * Traffic Cones shall be used as needed to identify hazards and vehicles parked near traffic. Heavy Equipment Concerns: All employees must maintain visual contact with operator at all times. Maintain safe work distances from heavy equipment. Operators must wear appropriate PPE while on job site. Excavation/Open Pit Hazards: Upon completion of excavation, safety fencing must be established around any open pit. Roadside excavation must be backfilled to prevent further accidents. Personnel must not approach excavation due to instability of area. Prior to excavation, identify all underground hazards. Contact Dig Tess at (800) 344-8377. Environmental Concerns: Several biological concerns are often encountered while in the field. Poison ivy, chiggers, snakes, spiders, and insects can all become medical problems while in the field. Be aware of the flora and fauna which may harm you. Creek/Waterway Concerns: While working on creeks and waterways, a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) is mandatory. Boats must be equipped with bowline ropes and must not exceed weight or occupancy ratings. Do not underestimate the power of water. Watch for steep banks, underwater objects, holes, and poor footing while wading in shallow water. Small Tools: Many small tools can be extremely dangerous when used improperly. Make sure that blades are sharp and machines are functioning properly. As a general rule, stay three (3) lengths away from equipment of concern (i.e.; 3 ax handle lengths, 3 weed -eater boom lengths, etc.) Operators must wear appropriate eye, ear, face, foot, and hand protection as required. Lifting: Proper lifting techniques must be utilized while working with equipment and waste. Do not overfill bags or over handle materials. Use lifting equipment or a buddy system (2 -person lift) when handling overweight or bulky items. Medical Emergency: The following procedure is to be followed in the event of a medical emergency. Employees will be provided medical attention at no personal cost. Hospital: Address / Directions from Job Site: (Distance in Miles: ) /.

SUPERVISOR SIGNATURE: PRINT SIGNATURE DATE 12 - PROPRIETARY 10.0 Key Personnel (does not include all personnel such as techs, etc.) 10.1.3 Personnel Qualifications and Experience • Protect Environmental possesses the most qualified administration and emergency response teams in North Texas. The qualifications, expertise and experience were tested and reviewed by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) who then contracted with Protect to perform the exact type of services required under this bid for their agency. • Protect has a large body of responders and actively hires and trains additional responders on an as needed basis. Protect consistently does this in order to be prepared and to be able to respond to multiple calls simultaneously. • Protect has on staff, multiple highly experienced, off duty firemen, who know hazmat extensively. • Protect Environmental Services hires its emergency response personnel after they have been E -verified, pass extensive interview session, medical screening, personal background check, immigration status check and drug test. • Protect crews are always in uniform and professional attire. Our uniforms are found to be helpful in identifying Protect crew members during chaos at incident sites so that first responders; i.e. City, police, fire and TxDOT personnel know who to count on for help. • After orientation, each new hire is given a probationary period of time in order to provide evidence of being responsible, safe and careful. During the probationary period of time, each response technician is given the training listed on the following page. • Once a response technician has successfully completed their training and illustrated their knowledge of the subject matter in the field under harsh conditions, Protect then assigns them to response teams. • The team members exhaustively train year round and are prepared to work in extreme weather conditions and holidays in order to provide excellent service to TxDOT. • Protect teams have performed in all levels of appropriate protective gear and equipment. Level A operations have been performed in the past when the highest level of respiratory and skin protection is required. Protect team members have experience in dealing with poison gas, ammonia gas, chlorine gas, acid gas and multiple other toxic gasses using Level A protection. Protect prepares and operates in Level B and Level C protection responses routinely. All of our Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) supplies are located on our response vehicles and ER trailers. • The technicians who show initiative, safety consciousness, knowledge, aptitude and supervisory talent are then selected to engage in our foreman/supervisory training. During that process of training, candidates participate in many operations and emergency responses at all times during the day and night. Procedures, methods and operational guidance is given in order to enhance the candidates' knowledge of how to keep the response teams safe, protect the environment, and speed up the cleanup operation utilizing time management and available resources. Supervisory training is ongoing and continues well after the candidate is allowed to take a response team out on their own.
