Safety
Weekly tool box meetings were conducted by the foremen with their crews.
The subjects that were covered include:
Be a safe boater; boating season has started and there are many
people on the lake drinking and having a good time.
Know the machinery you are operating. A complete check should be
done before operation starts.
Use proper lifting procedures to prevent injury to you or someone
else.
Be careful when around welding as the flash could cause injury to
the eyes.
Clean your work area after you are finished.
Hands-on fire extinguisher training. Used C02 and Halon for
comparison.
Use grounding strap while working close to the power lines.
Wear safety glasses while doing any kind of grinding work.
Report any hazardous situations to your supervisor so they can be
corrected as soon as possible.
Transformer clearance, make sure the clearance is what you want.
Check the grounds, etc.
Request any clearance you feel you need. Do not open the PT cubicle
without de-energizing the circuit. Control circuits can be turned
off and tagged using danger tags. Notify operations if you changed
status of the pumps.
Discuss the clearance on K1A and grounding procedures.
Bomb threats, telephone procedures, evacuation, and shutdown
procedures were all discussed.
Boring bar, welding, and grinding hazards in the turbine.
