  23. Confined Space Definition Confined Space: • Is large enough and so configured that an employee can bodily enter and perform assigned work; and • Has limited or restricted means for entry or exit (for example, tanks, vessels, silos, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, and pits are spaces that may have limited means of entry.); and • Is not designed for continuous employee occupancy Permit-required confined space has one or more characteristics: • Contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere; • Contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an entrant; • Has an internal configuration such that an entrant could be trapped or asphyxiated by inwardly converging walls or by a floor which slopes downward and tapers to a smaller cross-section; or • Contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard.

  24. Confined Space • OSHA 1910.146 • HASP and JHAs should address • Training • Space evaluation • Acceptable entry conditions • Entrants • Attendants • Supervisors • Monitoring • Emergency Services * IAW Katrina HASP

  25. Confined Spaces The following must be done before you enter a confined space. Your supervisor must: • Ventilate and monitor for hazardous conditions • Lock out or tag out all power equipment in the space • Issue appropriate PPE, possibly including self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) • Establish barriers to external traffic such as vehicles and pedestrians • Provide ladders or similar equipment for safe entry and exit in the space • Provide good communications equipment and alarm systems • Have rescue equipment nearby

  27. Animal & Plant Hazards • Domestic animals have been displaced • Avoid working in standing water • Use caution when reaching into voids • Use insect repellent containing DEET • When possible wear long pants and shirts

  28. Southern House Mosquito • Egg Laying: Females lay single raft of 140-340 eggs on heavily polluted small water collection after each blood meal. Eggs hatch in 1-2 days • Egg to Adult: 8-12 days after laying • Breeding place: all types of large man-made containers and collections of ground water, storm sewer catch basin, ground pools, ditches, run off from sewage plants, small artificial containers, cesspits, drains, septic tanks, unused wells, storm water canals • Travel: up to 3,600 feet /night • Life span: 2 weeks • Biting activity: usually attack humans towards the middle of the night indoors and outdoors; indoor biting • Preferred food: more attracted to birds (poultry) > humans

  29. Ticks • Lyme Disease • transmitted to humans by the bite of infected blacklegged ticks • fever, headache, fatigue, and characteristic skin rash • Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever • most severe and frequently reported rickettsial illness • Southern Tick-Associated Illness • 1% to 3% of these ticks are infected • Tick-borne Relapsing Fever

  30. Snakes Water Moccasin / Cotton Mouth If bitten: • Do get medical help as soon as possible • Do squeeze as much venom out as possible • Do keep the stricken limb below the heart • Do TRY to remain calm • Do NOT cut the wound • Do NOT use ice • Do NOT take alcohol orally • Do NOT use a tourniquet • If suspect Coral snake, pull the snake off immediately • Be aware of snakes that may be: • swimming in the water to get to higher ground • hiding under debris or other objects • STAY AWAY and DO NOT TOUCH Copper head

  31. Rodent Control • Store grains and animal feed in rodent-proof containers. • Woodpiles and stacks of lumber, or other materials to be saved for later use should be stored at least 12 inches above the ground and as far away from the home as possible. • Glue traps and live traps are not recommended. Rodents caught in live traps will likely reenter the dwelling. Glue traps can scare mice that are caught live and cause them to urinate. This may increase your risk of being exposed to diseases. • Spray dead rodents, rodent urine or droppings with a disinfectant or a 1:10 chlorine solution (1 part bleach to 10 parts water) until thoroughly soaked. Use a paper towel to pick up the urine and the droppings and discard it outdoors in a sealed container.

  32. Dog Bites/Rabies • Man and woman's best friend bites more than 4.7 million people a year. • Each year, 800,000 Americans seek medical attention for dog bites; half of these are children. • Of those injured, 386,000 require treatment in an emergency department and about a dozen die. • Do not approach an unfamiliar dog. • The most common mode of rabies virus transmission is through the bite and virus-containing saliva of an infected host.

  33. Fire Ants • A minority are hypersensitive to the venom and can react quite strongly • chest pains, nausea, dizziness, shock or, in rare cases, lapsing into coma • Can and do sting repeatedly • Rarely stung only once • Pustules are easily infected • May leave permanent scars

  34. Sanitation • 1910.141 • 1926.27 and 1926.51 HASP and JHAs should address these concerns Stagnate or Running water * IAW Katrina HASP
