VI. HSE PROGRAM MANAGEMENT

1. The purpose of MAPP’s CLIENT Project HealthSafety and Environmental Plan (PHSEP) is to
establish certain criteria and procedures for the analysis, development, implementation,
training, auditing, and evaluation of safety procedures tailored to conditions present and by the
work scope for this project. This plan is intended to address certain hazards and to provide
management, site supervision, workers, and other contributors with the tools necessary to
conduct all construction in a safe and efficient manner. Provisions for this plan have been
established through the MAPP’s HSE Management System, CLIENT HSE requirements, OSHA’s
General Industry and Construction Regulations, and applicable federal and state regulations.
2. Where aCLIENT specific HSE policy has not been implemented, the MAPP Corporate HSE Policy
will be the minimum requirement for compliance.
3. The PHSEP, as contained herein, will be reviewed on a regular basis, and will be revised as
necessary to accommodate changing project conditions, as well as changes in the law.
4. This PHSEP shall become part of every construction contract at the Project and shall be
considered as a mandatory minimum requirement for all contractors and their subcontractors of
all tiers.

VII. HSE COMMITMENT& GOALS

1. MAPP is committed to a zero injury environment. It is our belief that safety is a value, not
compromised by cost or schedule. Everyone has the right to go home safely at the end of the
day.
2. MAPP’s principal goal is for each project subcontractor to conduct all construction activities with
a zero incidence objective. This goal includes not only zero injuries but also zero property
damage and environmental incidents.
3. MAPP’s objective is total customer satisfaction achieved by consistently producing a level of
quality and productivity that completes a project on or ahead of schedule, within budget, and in
compliance with all applicable standards.
4. MAPP is committed to providing its employees, its subcontractors’ employees, and vendors,
other on site personnel, clients, and the public with a Drug & Alcohol Free Construction

meeting led and scheduled by the MAPP Project Team. This includes all MAPP, subcontractor,
vendor, and Client supplied personnel. The weekly safety meeting should cover job relevant
topics each week, and be approximately 15 minutes in length. Safety meeting attendance and
information should be documented on the MAPPMeeting Attendance Report Form (HSE-FM-
002) and a copy of presented material be kept with the sign-in sheet. Original documentation
should be kept onsite by the Site Superintendent and a copy sent to the project coordinator for
indexing in PVault.
2. Daily TSA Review - The Subcontractor Foreman willdiscuss with craft workers the planned work
activities, hazards, safe work practices, personal protective equipment needs, and other issues
of concern at daily TSA kick offreviews.
3. Weekly Subcontractor HSE Meeting – All subcontractors (foreman and/the safety
representative) will be required to attend a weekly HSE meeting while they are working on site
to review project performance and to identify opportunities to improve the safety process. The
MAPP Project teamwill review the weekly observation trends, open and closed action items,
incident and near misses, and safety related concerns. After the office meeting, all attendees
will perform a jobsite safety walk.
4. Special HSE Meetings - On occasion, a special safety alert, stand down, policy changes,
industry alerts or other meeting will need to be shared. A safety meeting should be held with all
site personnel to review the information. A Meeting Attendance Report Formmust be
completed to document the meeting and filed with the other site safety meetings. If requested,
a copy of the meeting documentation should be sent to the MAPP Corporate Safety
Department.
5. A visual workplace board shall be erected and displayed in project common areas, such as
break areas, to post required jobsite signage, posters, notices, etc.

XI. SUBSTANCE ABUSE POLICY

1. The use of illegal drugs, on or off duty, is inconsistent with law-abiding behavior expected of all
citizens. The use of illegal drugs, or abuse of alcohol or prescription drugs, may impair the ability

Page 11 of 28
 of employees to perform tasks that are critical to safe work performance. The result is an
increase in accidents and failures that pose a serious threat to the safety of all employees,
visitors and the general public. Furthermore, employees have the right to work in a drug free
environment and to work with persons free from the effects of drugs and alcohol. Employees
who abuse alcohol or drugs are a danger to themselves and to other employees.
2. In an effort to create a safe and healthful workplace, the project has adopted a Substance Abuse
Policy requiring substance abuse testing. Nothing in this policy is intended as a substitute for
any company's complete written substance abuse policy. This program is intended as a guide, to
establish the minimum requirements for complying with the Client’s requirements for a drug
free work place.
3. This policy applies to all MAPP, Client, and Subcontractor at any tier, Vendor and other third
party employees, including management working on or visiting the CLIENT project.
4. The project requires all plansmeet at minimum the requirements of the project Drug and
Alcohol Free Workplace Policy. (See Attachment C –Drug and Alcohol Free Workplace Policy)
5. The following are prohibited on all MAPP projects:
a) Being under the influence of any amount of alcohol or illegal drugs.
b) The use, sale, offer to sell, purchase, transfer, distribution or possession of illegal drugs,
drugparaphernalia or alcohol products.
6. No employee or prospective employee of a contractor or subcontractor shall be permitted to
work on the client’s site of construction unless such employee has acknowledged his
understanding in writing of the requirements of the testing program and has submitted to
testing as required by this specification.
7. Any site employee/visitor who suffers an on-the-job injury requiring off site medical treatment,
or following a potentially serious incident, in which safety precautions were violated, unsafe
instructions or orders were given, a potentially serious accident occurred were vehicles,
equipment or property was damaged, or where unusually careless acts was performed will be
tested for drugs and alcohol within three (3) hours of the incident.
8. The involved employee/visitor’s employer is responsible for ensuring all persons involved in an
incident have a post incident drug &alcohol test and willreport the results to MAPP. At a
minimum, the drug test will follow current Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) five panel guidelines and the alcohol test will follow
Department ofTransportation (DOT) guidelines.
9. Persons that refuse to test, significantly stall to be tested, are uncooperative with collectors, or
attempt to alter a specimen will be considered positive and immediately removed and banned
from the project.

XII. SUBCONTRACTOR MANAGEMENT

1. All MAPP Subcontractors will be evaluated through MAPP Subcontractor Prequalification
Process.
a) The Preconstruction Department requires any current or potential
subcontractor to begin the pre-qualification process through completion of the Vendor
Qualification Form (VQF). The information captured in this form consists of safety,
available workforce, insurance, financial history, bonding capacity and references. (See
Attachment D – MAPPVendor Qualification Form& Single Project Limit
Continuation Sheet)
b) The information captured on the VQF provides the basis for completing a
continuation sheet. The Continuation sheet is used to disqualify, or calculate a Single
Project Limit for the subcontractor. Subcontracts valued higher than the vendor’s
single project limit cannot be awarded without prior approval from the Risk
Management Committee.
c) The Project Manager (PM) will complete a Subcontractor Risk Evaluation (SRE)
prior to inviting a subcontractor to bid on the CLIENT Project. Information required to

Page 12 of 28
 complete the form is pulled from the VQF and the subcontractor’s submitted HSE
program. Once the SRE is approved by the appropriate personnel, the subcontractor
will be invited to bid the project. (See Attachment E –Subcontractor Risk Evaluation)
d) If the subcontractor does not meet the low risk criteria established in the SRE
Qualified Summary, the SRE risk mitigation steps must be met and subcontractor
evaluated by the Risk Management Committee.
2. Subcontractors will be required to comply with the requirements of this PHSEP and all MAPP
and CLIENTsiteHSE policies.
3. Subcontractors are required to provide for evaluation and substance abuse testing for their
employees according to the requirements of the project Substance Abuse Policy and will be
subject to audit by MAPP.
4. Subcontractors will be required to attend weekly a Subcontractor HSE Planning meeting to
review project performance and to identify opportunities to improve the safety process.

XIII. DISCIPLINARY ACTION

1. Although it is not the intent of this plan to dictate discipline, all site personnel shall be covered
by the MAPP Enforcement Policy including subcontractors. The project team should make every
effort to work with subcontractors when safety and health violations are observed or reported.
When an employee, subcontract employee, or group of employees is noted to be in violation of
safety and health policies, this written enforcement program should be enacted. The
enforcement of site safety policies is critical in ensuring uniform and safety of all workers on site.
This policy will have 4 levels of enforcement. (See Attachment F - Safety Policy Enforcement
Form.)

XIV. TRAINING REQUIREMENTS

1. Subcontractors shall provide MAPP, as part of the submitted SSSP, a copy of all task specific
training verification badges/cards to be eligible to work on site.
2. All workers shall receive a site-specific orientation prior to performing any work on the project.
The site-specific orientation is normally 20minutes in duration and is provided by the MAPP
Project Team when the subcontractor mobilizes on site. Once employees have completed the
site-specific orientation they will sign the orientation attendance form and receive a hard hat
decal to display on their hats for the duration of the project. The summary outline for the site
specific safety orientation can be found in (Attachment G – CLIENT/PROJECT Site Orientation
Summary.)
3. Each subcontractor should be able to demonstrate that their employees have received safety
and health training relevant to their scope of work as defined by OSHA. Also, that skilled
employees have received and are qualified to perform that work tasks they are assigned to.
Employee skills assessment, training records and evidence of record retention must be
maintained and made available for audit by the project team or client if requested.
4. In conjunction with the SSSP, each contractor shall submit a signed and completed Contractor
Employee Compliance Letter which confirms: (See Attachment H – Site Compliance Access
Form)
a) That all persons have reviewed, understand, and agree to comply with all requirements
in this PHSEP and the Subcontractor Site Safety Plan (which includes the Substance
Alcohol Policy).
b) That the contractor agrees that all company employees/representatives have been
competently trained and will comply with all federal, state, local, and MAPP HSE
policies; prior to beginning any work on the project.

Page 13 of 28
 c) Contractor also confirms that all craft personnel have been trained and certified for the
work they will be performing; as applicable by regulations, policies, and industry
standards.
d) The letter also verifies that a controlled substance screening has been completed prior
to assignment for each employee.

XV. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

1. Subcontractors are required to utilize appropriate engineering and administrative controls to
protect their employees from all recognizable hazards on this project. When implementation of
these controls are not feasible, contractors shall issue appropriate personal protective
equipment (PPE) for their employees.
2. Each subcontractoris required to furnish necessary PPE for their own employees to cover their
subcontracted scope of work and assure that their employees are properly trained on each type
of PPEused.
3. The following is the minimum PPE required while in construction work areas. Other PPE may be

accidental contact. Guarding of live parts shall be accomplished as follows:
(1) Location in a cabinet, room, vault, or similar enclosure accessible only to
qualified persons.
(2) Use of permanent, substantial partitions or screens to exclude unqualified
persons.
(3) Location on a suitable balcony, gallery, or platform elevated and arranged to
exclude unqualified persons.
(4) Elevation of eight feet or more above the floor.
(5) Entrance to rooms and other guarded locations containing exposed live parts
must be marked with conspicuous warning signs forbidding unqualified
persons to enter.
(6) Electric installations that are over 600 volts and that are open to unqualified
persons must be made with metal enclosed equipment or enclosed in a vault
or area controlled by a lock. In addition, equipment must be marked with
appropriate caution signs.
5. Grounding of Equipment Connected by Cord and Plug.
a) Exposed non-current carrying metal parts of cord and plug connected equipment that
may become energized shall be protected in the following situations:
(1) In a hazardous location.
(2) When operated at over 150 volts to ground, except for guarded motors and
metal frames of electrically heated appliances if the appliance frames are
permanently and effectively insulated from ground.
(3) When one of the types of equipment listed below.
1. Hand held motor operated tools.
2. Cord and plug connected equipment used in damp or wet locations or
by employees standing on the ground or on metal floors or working
inside metal tanks or boilers.
3. Portable and mobile X ray and associated equipment.
4. Tools likely to be used in wet and/or conductive locations.
5. Portable hand lamps.
6. Safety Related Work Practices
a) Protection of Employees
(1) Contractors shall not permit their employees to work near any part of an
electric power circuit that the employees could contact in the course of work,
unless such employees are protected against shock by de-energizing the
circuit and grounding it or by guarding it effectively by insulation or other
means.
(2) Where the exact location of underground electric power lines is known,
employees using jack hammers or hand tools that may contact a line must be
provided with insulated protective gloves.
(3) Even before work is begun, the contractor must determine by inquiry,
observation, or instruments where any part of an exposed or concealed
energized electric power circuit is located. This is necessary because a person,

Page 25 of 28
 tool or machine could come into physical contact with the electric power
circuit.
(4) Contractors shall advise their employees of the location of such lines, the
hazards involved and protective measures to be taken as well as to post and
maintain proper warning signs.
b) Passageways and Open Spaces
(1) Contractors shall provide barriers or other means of guarding to ensure that
workspace for electrical equipment will not be used as a passageway during
the time when energized parts of electrical equipment are exposed.
(2) Walkways and similar working spaces must be kept clear of electric cords.
c) Lockout and Tagging of Circuits
(1) Contractors shall place locks and tags on controls that are to be deactivated
during the course of work on energized or de energized equipment or circuits.
(2) Equipment or circuits that are de energized shall be rendered inoperative and
have locks and tags attached at all points where such equipment or circuits can
be energized.
(3) MAPP LOTO policy. (HSE28-001)
7. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters
a) Contractors shall use approved ground fault circuit interrupters for all 120 volt, single
phase, 15 and 20 ampere receptacle outlets on construction sites, which are not a part
of the permanent wiring of the building or structure, and which are in use by their
employees.
b) Receptacles on the ends of extension cords are not part of the permanent wiring and,
therefore, must be protected by GFCl's whether or not the extension cord is plugged
into a permanent wiring.
c) These GFCI's monitor the current to the load for leakage to ground. When this leakage
exceeds 5 mA ± I mA, the GFCl interrupts the current. They are designed to trip quickly
enough to prevent electrocution.
d) Subcontractors shall have in place approved program for testing GFCl's. All records
shall be made available for inspection at any time.
e) This protection is required in addition to, not as a substitute for, the grounding
requirements of OSHA safety and health rules and regulations as specified in 29 CFR
1926.
8. Tool and EquipmentInspection
a) Subcontractors shall perform a documented inspection of all power tools and
temporary power cords prior to assignment on the project and at least quarterly
thereafter.
b) Visual inspection of tools and equipment are required prior to each use and shall
include:
(1) General condition
(2) Plugs and caps, and presence of ground prong
(3) Electrical cord sets
(4) External defects, and missing parts
(5) Defective tools shall be tagged with a “Danger, Do Not Use” tag, taken out of
service and placed in a secured location until they are repaired or destroyed.
c) Tools and equipment that have been inspected and safe to use will be identified using a
quarterly color code inspection system.
(1) All items shall be marked with orange electrical tape for the first quarter of the
project. Subsequent quarters shall be marked as followed, and then repeated
annually:
1. October – December Orange
2. January – March Red
3. April– June Green

XXVI. FALL PROTECTION

1. Fall protection equipment and temporary work platforms shall be inspected and erected by
competent persons designated in the SSSP.
2. Engineered systems to alleviate fall potential shall be the preferred method. The safest means
of worker access for overhead work (e.g., rolling scaffolds, mechanical lifts, platform ladders,
etc.) shall be considered as alternatives to the use of portable ladders.
3. If ladders are used, then the top of all straight and extension ladders shall be tied to a substantial
anchor point before use; a second worker must hold the ladder until the tie-off is secure. The
top three steps on any step ladder shall not be used at any time. (HSE39-001)
4. These standards establish means to analyze elevated work tasks and determine appropriate
personnel protection against fall hazards.
5. All contractors whose employees may be exposed to falls of greater than 6 feet must present an
approved plan, that must be reviewed before work at elevated height could commence on site.
6. MAPP requires that each employee be protected from fall hazards, above 6 feet, by a guardrail
system, safety net system, or personal fall arrest system. This includes:
a) Leading Edges – Each employee shall be protected by a fall protection system when
constructing a leading edge 6 feet or more above a lower level.
b) Hoist Area – Each employee in a hoist area shall be protected from falling 6 feet or
more to a lower level.
c) Holes – All holes on a walking/working surface shall be covered to protect from tripping
and falling through. Those holes which expose a fall to a lower level 6 feet or more
require a guardrail system.
d) Guardrails, fencing, or barricades shall protect each employee at the edge of an
excavation 6 feet or more in depth.

XXVII. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

1. Mobile Equipment Operator - Only authorized and qualified personnel may operate equipment
or vehicles, including on public roads. Copies of operator certifications should be provided to the
MAPP Project Team as part of the SSSP, or prior to the delivery or use of any mobile equipment
on site.
2. Tools and Equipment – Only trained and authorized employees will operate tools and
equipment. All tools and equipment shall be inspected prior to each use. Mobile equipment
such as cranes, aerial lifts, welding machines, forklifts, etc., must be inspected and documented
on a daily basis. (See Attachment P - Equipment Inspection Checklist)
3. No chemical waste, including paint, shall be disposed of in project dumpsters. All paint shall be
removed from the site and disposed of according by the responsible subcontractor.
4. Communication/Radios – Supervisory personnel shall use cellular phones as their primary means
of communication for this project. MAPP Project Team Members and Subcontractor foreman
are the only employees authorized to have and use cell phones while on the project site inside
the construction areas. All cell phone usage shall be done in a safe area while not working or
walking. No cell phone can be used by anyone while operating tools or equipment.
5. Safety Observation Report (SOR) – All site personnel shall use SOR’s on a continuous basis to
identify, communicate, correct and document unsafe and safe behaviors and conditions. (See
Attachment Q - Safety Observation Report Form)
a) The Safety Observation process will engage site personnel to identify potential
workplace hazards and unsafe actions of workers as well as for identifying and documenting
safe acts and safe workplace conditions. The SOR is a proactive process designed to identify,

Page 27 of 28
 document, and change unsafe conditions and unsafe behaviors through supervisor and
employee involvement.
b) Observations may be conducted by individuals or teams of workers. Observers will
monitor work in progress for safe or unsafe acts and safe or unsafe conditions.
c) Observations can include any number of workers for any length of time or workplace
conditions.
d) Open and constructive communication between the observer(s) and worker(s) is an
important for the success of a SOR. Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions should be discussed and
resolved on the spot, if possible. Safe work practices should likewise be identified and positively
reinforced through compliment and praise.
e) If imminent danger situations are encountered, work must be immediately stopped and
workers removed from the hazard, the hazard abated, and a thorough investigation conducted.
f) It is important that all deficiencies reported have documented corrective actions, the
majority of which should be implemented at the time the observation is made. NOTE: Some
corrective actions may require a period of time to resolve if, for instance, client involvement is
required, equipment must be ordered, etc.; therefore, an open issue log will be kept to
document the final close-out or completion of such actions.
g) The MAPP Site Safety Representative will gather and compile SOR data, generate
reports, and develop trends to provide feedback to employees and the project team. These
reports will help in the development of special emphasis programs designed to highlight positive
behaviors and work practices and to address the specific types of deficiency trends.
h) Supervisory personnel should complete at minimum one SOR per day and craft
personnel shall complete one SORs per week.
6. Any suggestion to improve the safety of the project can be submitted using the Safety
Suggestion Form. All ideas will be reviewed by the MAPP Project Team and implemented if
approved. (See Attachment R - Safety Suggestion Form)

XXVIII. MEDICAL CARE

1. MAPP and its Subcontractors are responsible for providing /first aid to their employees. A first
aid station will be established for minor first aid cases. Assistance will be given if necessary by
