CONDUCT OF WORK
Project managers and contractors shall familiarize their staff and work crews with known hazards on
jobsites, provide training, and ensure work proceeds in a safe and secure manner. Jobsite rules must be
followed and no work shall be conducted in an unsafe manner or unsafe environment. Project and
contractor staff shall not tamper with or otherwise render any safety or security measure ineffective, to
include alarms, signage, notices, guardrails, lighting, or any other measure.
Contractors shall ensure that hazard analyses and vulnerability assessments are undertaken and completed,
and that mitigations of hazards and vulnerabilities are implemented. Any hazards or vulnerabilities that
cannot be mitigated to an acceptable risk level must be communicated to all work crews and visitors .
TYPES OF SAFETY & SECURITY EVENTS
The variety of safety and security events, impacts, locations, levels of severity, and combinations with other
elements or other emergencies makes it impossible to define and plan for every scenario. However, general
types of events can be identified that may be faced by contractors, whether natural (e.g., flooding),
accidental (e.g., fall), intentional (e.g., theft), or technological (e.g., communications failure). Contractor
CSSPs must adequately address reasonable possibilities.
Listed below are safety and security events and emergencies for the company and contractors must be
prepared to respond to. This list may be expanded by the contractor, PM in the future.
Safe Watch, Adverse Weather and Rider Safety and Security Program
SIGNAGE

physical and behavioral conformance with this Plan, the Contractor CSSP, and applicable local, state, and
Federal regulations. Each inspection shall be logged. Any findings of non-conformance shall be escalated
as a safety/security finding and brought to resolution in a timely manner. For findings of imminent danger,
corrective action must be taken immediately; if immediate corrective action is not possible, the job location
shall be shut down until the condition can be remedied and the C-TRAN Project Manager must be notified
upon securing the site. For emergency matters, 9-1-1 shall be called immediately and the C-TRAN Project
Manager shall be notified.
CONSTRUCTION SAFETY AND SECURITY REPORTING
Anyone witnessing or otherwise having knowledge of unsafe behavior or an unsafe condition on or around
the construction site shall immediately report it to the foreman, supervisor or designated Safety and Security
Manager at the site. The responsible party must take immediate action to remedy the situation. If the
unsafe condition or practice cannot be immediately corrected (e.g., a risk resulting from defective
equipment), then work shall be halted at the impacted part of the job site or job task and the C-TRAN
Project Manager is to be notified. For all emergencies on the site, 9-1-1 shall be called immediately if a
life-threatening situation is present.
A written report following the incident shall be submitted to the PM within three hours of the event, to
include details of the event, persons involved, time/date and work conditions of the event, action taken, and

include the above information as well as detailed findings as to the cause of the event and the corrective
action taken to prevent, if possible, future recurrences.
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE
Emergency preparedness plans for each job site must be prepared by the responsible contractor to ensure
response to emergencies on the job site.
Emergency preparedness plans and procedures must be able to address any reasonably conceivable, realistic
event whether natural (e.g., flooding), accidental (e.g., car collision into worksite), intentional (e.g., arson),
or technological (e.g., communications failure).
The emergency preparedness plans/procedures, at a minimum, must address:
Emergency contact lists and phone numbers for:
Staff training, both initial and refresher training, to familiarize staff on safe and secure
practices maintaining a safe and secure work environment, as well as how to respond in
the event of emergencies;
Emergency drills and table top exercises, if appropriate, to simulate emergency events
and to test procedures and inter-agency (response agencies) coordination and
communication;
Medical First Aid response. Each work location shall have a crew member certified in
first aid. At each work location, the name of the trained crewmembers shall be identified
as well as the location of the first aid kit. All fixed worksites shall have a first aid kit. For
activities that are not fixed at one location, a kit may be kept in a work truck but must be
present at all times for all shifts. The use of, distribution, locations, and signage for
automated external defibrillator (AED) machines, if used, shall be documented and
provided to all worksite crews.
In addition to the emergency preparedness activities the preparedness plan shall include:

medical personnel, such as for an injury or heart attack on the job site, shall undergo specific training to
ensure they are proficient in first aid procedures and fully understand their roles and responsibilities.
CONTRACTOR CONSTRUCTION SAFETY & SECURITY PLAN
Contractors shall develop their own Construction Safety and Security Plan (CSSP) for the construction of
the C-TRAN Fourth Plain BRT Project. The Contractors’ CSSP shall conform to and incorporate all
elements of this document, and include any other relevant matter not explicitly stated in this document. The
Contractor CSSP shall conform to all applicable local, state, and Federal regulations on construction safety,
health, and security. The plan shall be submitted to the C-TRAN Safety Manager for approval before
construction work in the field commences.
The Plan shall identify, in detail, how the objectives listed in Section 4.1 will be met. In addition the
Contractor CSSP shall provide an adequate discussion and/or policy/procedures on the following:
Designation of safety and security roles and responsibilities within the contractor
organization at all levels including any subcontractor roles;
Risk and hazard analysis to include the potential consequence of each type of safety and
security event or emergency, including the likelihood of occurrence and potential severity
if the event does occur, the risks arising from a safety incident or security event, and
measures to eliminate or mitigate the identified safety risks and security vulnerabilities;
Fall protection;
Reporting procedures;
Incident/Accident Investigation;
Preservation of evidence;
Other health, safety, and security elements not listed above, yet discussed in this Plan, or
topics that become relevant after the work is begun due to changes in regulations, in the
threat/safety environment, or through directives from Clark County, the City of
Vancouver, or C-TRAN.
The Contractor CSSP must identify all emergency resources including people (within the Contractor
organization, the subcontractor organization(s), and at C-TRAN), equipment, facilities, and materials. The
type and scale of resources shall be consistent with potential safety and security events, the severity of such
events, and the location of the worksite (e.g., on a major arterial vs. work performed outside a traffic right
of way).
PLAN UPDATE
The Contractor’s CSSP shall be updated as needed (e.g., as personnel, phone numbers, or procedures
change), fully reviewed at least annually, and updated to include new or updated territory/sites, staff,
procedures, legislation, standards, project progress, changes to neighboring facilities, or other aspects
related to safety and security matters. Updated plans shall be submitted to the C-TRAN Project Manager
for approval, indicating which sections of the Plan have been updated or changed from the previous edition.
AUDIT AND REVIEW
Audits and reviews of the Contractor CSSP shall be undertaken as outlined below.
AUDIT
C-TRAN shall audit the Contractor to ensure compliance with this Plan and the Contractor’s CSSP, to
ensure a safe, healthy, and secure environment, both physically and behaviorally, for workers, equipment,
property, visitors and the general public at and near work sites.
Though C-TRAN may visit any Contractor site at any time, formal audits will occur:
at least once every year;
REVIEW
The company and Contractors shall ensure that the Contractor CSSP is reviewed regularly and
updated to ensure that it remains relevant and effective. The following instances shall trigger a
review:
an annual review date (the Plan shall be reviewed at least once every 12 months);
after a site inspection or random site visit finds a safety or security vulnerability within
the contractor’s existing safety and security program;
FENCING
Installation of Fencing
All personnel entering the site shall have received site safety induction and have attended a job toolbox talk.
The Fencing Site Engineer will issue a Permit to dig and advise those carrying out the
works of general health and safety issues and the risks associated with services in the area
of excavation.
Determine whether you require a safety fence for your construction projects by using the
following fence construction terminology and checklist to select the right types of
temporary construction fence for various needs on the worksite.
When setting up a construction site, your main priority is workplace safety and security.
However, choosing the right types of safety fence for construction can be challenging.
There are several types of fences that can be used for various construction projects.
Selecting the proper safety fence for construction offers a barrier against unauthorized
entry and security threats. Use this checklist and fence construction terminology to decide
which types of temporary construction fence you may need for your sites.
Almost all construction sites will require the use of temporary construction fence around
the perimeter. This is necessary to protect against public or criminal access to the site.
When selecting a perimeter security fence, opt for a minimum height of six feet.
Add to the security of the property by posting proper signage that meets the
new OSHA/ANSI safety sign requirements. If your site is located close to other buildings
or in an urban area, consider the use of safety nets over the top of the space between
fencing and the site.
Along with security fencing, use guardrails, safety nets, restraint systems, harnesses, and
other safety devices when working around these falling risks. As these hazards are
resolved during the construction, the temporary construction fence can easily be removed.
You can reuse temporary fencing for future construction jobs, which saves your company
money.
The fencing you use can range from chain link panels to privacy screening depending on
the location. Based on your worksite needs, you might also need to include barriers within
your traffic control plan. These barriers protect against unwanted entry, both on foot and
by vehicle.
Whether you are dealing with the perimeter or traffic control, a temporary construction
fence will serve your business’ needs. Temporary fencing allows you to reuse and
repurpose construction site materials. This cuts down on one of the biggest offenders in
the construction industry—worksite waste.
Improve your construction company’s bottom line by spending less on wasted materials.

Construction Sequence
Fence lines will be set out by a Setting out Engineer or Surveyor. Pegs will be placed at
all changes in direction of the fence line and at appropriate centers for arcs in the fence
line. The locations of gates will also be set out.
Prior to entering lands the Section Foreman will liaise with relevant landowners in
relation to the system implemented to protect the livestock. A Permit to Dig (PTD) will
to be issued to the foreman of the fencing Site by the Section Engineer prior to fencing
works commencing.
Timber post and rail fence shall be erected by a tractor/excavator mounted hydraulic post
driver where ground conditions allow. All machines shall work from one point. This post
driver shall have a special cap fitted to suit and protect the top of the post. Temporary
posts shall be set up with a line wire at bottom level to achieve horizontal and vertical
alignment.
The locations of the posts shall be determined by laying out on the ground along the
proposed fence line. Posts shall be driven or fixed at the ends of the rails.
To allow for curves in both the horizontal and vertical alignment the rails shall be
overlapped by approximately 50mm every fourth rail. This will avoid a situation where
rails will not meet in the center of the posts.
Access to site shall be via approved access points. (Refer to figure 2 in Appendix A)
All works will be executed within the permanent fencing boundary.
Mitigation:
Construction works carried out in the vicinity of the Turloughs will be monitored by a
suitably qualified ecologist.
Construction works will be avoided during prolonged periods of very heavy rainfall
adjacent
No construction plant or construction vehicles to enter the boundary other than where this
boundary has already been generally encroached by the existing road.
