BLASTING PROCEDURES
PART 1 - GENERAL
A. Blasting procedures and safety measures
1.3 Blasting Submittals
A. The contractor must submit a blasting plan that addresses the blasting radius and potentially
affected areas on and off campus. The contractor will be responsible for all applicable federal,
state, and local blasting safety regulations, licensing and permitting in accordance with but not
limited to: CCR Title 8, Construction Safety Orders (CSO); 344.20, Blasters License
Application and Examination; 5238, Competency and Qualifications of Blasters; and any of
Subchapter 7, General Industry Safety Orders (GISO), Group 18, Explosives and
Pyrotechnics, 5291, Firing of Explosives, applicable to the project. In addition the blasting
subcontractor will have a California C12 Earthwork and Paving license including having the
certification for using explosives according to proceeding regulations.
1.4 Notifications
A. For blasting affecting property under the jurisdiction of the City of San Marcos, blasting
contractors shall abide by City of San Marcos (Ordinance 04-622) and the regulations
established by the County of San Diego. Blasting contractors shall give at least 12 hours
notice prior to blasting to any business or residence potentially affected by blasting under the
jurisdiction of the City of San Marcos and conduct inspection to determine appropriate safety
precaution measures. If blasting impacts City residents and businesses, notice shall be
approved by the City of San Marcos Building Director at least 12 hours prior to blasting.
Notice shall also be provided to the City of San Marcos Fire Department at least 12 hours
prior to blasting. Buildings or other in-use facilities that may be potentially affected by blasting
will be inspected by a structural engineer designated by the University hired by the blasting
contractor. In addition to the statutory requirements listed above, the following rules and
definitions shall be in effect.
1.5 Procedures and Safety Measures
A. Close Proximity Shots
Close Proximity Shots are defined as blasting near adjacent structures for the purposes of
aggregate production, detailed land contouring/grading, pipeline or other trench excavation
and other similar activities and/or whose purpose is primarily construction related, as agreed
upon in the blasting plan. Close proximity shots are densely controlled and effectively smaller
than production shots in regards to drill pattern, drill-hole number, size and exposure charge.
BLASTING PROCEDURES

Project Name here
Project No. SM XXXX
Date
Occupied buildings or other in-use facilities which are potentially affected by the blasting, as
agreed upon in the blasting plan, will be evacuated immediately prior to the shot. The blasting
contractor in conjunction with University Police Department, University Building Marshals and
other University assigned employees shall evacuate occupied buildings and other in-use
facilities. Any persons trying to re-enter the blasting area will be escorted off the blasting site
during the shot. Buildings can be re-occupied following the All Clear signal from the blaster-
in-charge.
Close proximity shots will occur primarily on Fridays. Notification of such shots will be made
to the University not less than five business days prior.
In blasting areas facing buildings, structures and improvements, additional over-burden

material will be placed to cover the face of the shots. This additional burden will provide an
enhanced cushion and will assist to contain material within the blast area. Further, when
blasting in a location where flying rock or material may damage other property, all loaded
holes shall be covered with an adequate blasting mat that has been securely anchored.
B. Boulder Shots
Boulder Shots are defined as the blasting of individual, separate boulders of such size that it
is impractical and/or unsafe to break in any other fashion. Boulder shots are densely
controlled and effectively smaller than other types of shots in regards to borehole number,
size and powder amounts.
Boulders that are to be shot will be moved away from buildings and parking lots to avoid
evacuation of same, as agreed upon in the blasting plan.
The University shall be notified no later than five business days prior to the onset of boulder
shots.
C. General Contractor, Grading Contractor, and/or Blasting Contractor
The contractor is to submit a blasting plan, including drawings/maps using scaled radiuses
or other indicators, showing the anticipated extent of the affected areas for review and
approval by the University a minimum of 21 calendar days prior to the start of blasting. The
blasting contractor and the University will determine what shall be considered close proximity
shots and boulder shots, as well as appropriate blasting distances. Primary concerns are the
prevention of fly rock and ground movement that could cause property damage or personal
injury. The contractor is to conduct pre-blast surveys, as required by all applicable federal,
state, and local blasting safety regulations, to account for possible property damage or
personal injury. Further, the contractor assumes full responsibility for any other adverse
phenomenon associated with blasting.
If the results of the blasting are not satisfactory to the University, all blasting work will be
suspended and other means will be used to remove the material to be excavated. In
accordance with the blasting plan and contract, if the general contractor, grading
subcontractor or blasting contractor becomes aware of the need for significant changes in the
blasting plan or changes in expected conditions, notice must be given to the University
immediately.

community to the whistles and warning notifications; and ensure the warning signal is audible
at all points throughout the campus.
General contractor personnel, blasting contractor personnel and University personnel shall
meet periodically to discuss the work progress, safety issues, mutual concerns, and other
matters as deemed necessary to ensure the successful completion of blasting work.
D. University
The University will review and approve the submitted blasting plan and reserves the right to
require additional safety measures to be in place prior to blasting. Blasting can be approved
during the academic year to occur primarily on Fridays on the following dates/times: during
standard time from 3 4 p.m. and during daylight savings time from 4 5 p.m. Any requests
for close proximity blasting outside of this schedule will be considered by Executive Council,
or their designee, on a case-by-case basis and require a request from the General Contractor
to the University of not less than five business days (M F) prior to the requested blast.
Specific blast days/times may be posted in advance on a Web site easily accessible by all on
campus.
The University shall notify the campus community of the blasting activity, dates/times, and
what they are to do during blasting (stay away!). Notification may include, but is not limited to,
communication to students, employees and visitors, posting notices in campus publications
