A review should be made of the craft crew sizes and installation rates required for installation
of large pipe and for wire and cable pulling. This establishes the necessary start dates
for these major activities and aids in the evaluation of the engineering scheduling.

Section 7
The Field Superintendent is responsible for enforcing housekeeping standards on the project.
Each craft should be required to cleanup after themselves on an ongoing basis to eliminate costly
cleanup days.
Whenever possible, trash should be disposed of within the security fence in much the same
manner as municipal dumps are operated. When appropriate permits can be obtained, the
excavation of a pit that can be expanded will do the job. Sufficient material from the excavation
should be left close by to cover and bury the trash. When burning permits are allowed by local
regulations, they should be obtained so the volume of materials to be buried can be reduced.
When trash has to be disposed of off the site, very close control has to be maintained for security
reasons. Inspection and monitoring of this work is mandatory to prevent equipment, tool, and
material losses.
Prior to any burying, burning, or removal of waste materials, consult with Bechtel Environmental
for proper permit requirements. All contracted waste haulers must be appropriately licensed and
haul only to an approved, licensed facility.
Environmental
The Environmental requirements for the project are reviewed during the front end planning part of
the project for items which have construction impact. If a list of these items has not been
provided, the Site Manager develops a list of environmental items that will impact the construction
on the project. Normally, this list would involve measures to prevent pollution of air, water, or soil
by hazardous wastes, oil, or silt. The majority of the requirements are directed by federal, state,
and local regulations. All key construction team members should be informed of the project
specific regulations.

Emergencies
The project should develop an Emergency Plan to cover the following emergencies:
Bomb Threats
Explosions
Oil Spills
Floods
Earthquakes
Hurricanes
Tornadoes
Civil/Labor Disturbances
Once the plan is in place, materials should be purchased, personnel trained, and the necessary
instructions posted to inform all field personnel of emergency actions required to implement the
plan.
This information must be included in the project Safety and Health Action Plan.
Manual Labor Training Program
At the discretion of the Site Manager, brief, informal training sessions may be instituted in the field
to improve the skills and increase productivity of field manual labor. Field personnel, both manual
and non-manual, skilled in the various discipline specialties may be designated by the Site
Manager or other field supervision as instructors.
A Manual Craft Training Program Coordinator, reporting to the Field Superintendent is responsible
for the formulation of a training curriculum, with assistance from the designated instructors, and in
line with the project needs. The Program Coordinator is responsible for the scheduling of training
sessions to ensure a minimum of interference with construction operations and for maintaining
trainee records. Training sessions may include actual on-the-job training wherein trainees work
with skilled craft in performing construction operations.
All employees must receive safety and health training which will enable them to identify and either
avoid or control any hazardous condition or work practices. This training must be detailed in the
project Safety and Health Action Plan.
The curriculum for a manual labor training program may include the following:
SUPERVISION
Foreman Duties and Responsibilities
General Foreman Duties and Responsibilities
Superintendent Duties and Responsibilities
Field Engineering Duties and Responsibilities
