RECOMMENDATIONS/GUIDELINES FOR REMOVAL OF UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS This depart meat is responsible for enforcing the Kern County Ordinance Code, Division 8 and state regulations pertaining Io underground storage tanks. Representatives from this department respond to job sites during tank removals to ensure that the tanks are safe to remove/close and that the overall job performance is consistent with permit requirements, applicable laws and safety standards. The follow?ag guidelines are offered to clarify the interests and expectations for this department. Job site safety is one of our primary concerns. Excavations are inherently dangerous. It is the contractor's responsibility to know and abide by CAL-OSIIA regulations. The job foreman is responsible for the crew and any subcontractors on the job. ,a~ a general rule, workers are not permitted in improperly sloped excavations or when unsafe conditions exist in the hole. Tools and equipment are to be used only for their designed function. For example, backhoe buckets are never substituted for ladders. 2. Properly licensed contraclors are assumed to understand the requirements of tile permit issued. The job foreman is responsible for knowing and abiding by tile conditions of the permit. Deviation fram the permit conditions may result in a stop-work order. Accepted MD:cas Individual contractors will be held responsible for their post-removal paperwork. Tracking forms, hazardous waste manifests and analyses documentation are necessary for each sile in order to close a case lile or move it into mitigation. When contractors do not follow through on necessary paperwork, an unmanageable backlog of incomplete cases results. If Ibis continues, processing time for compleling new closures will increase. \a1281-15.ptc
