Sr. No. Activity Responsibility 3.2 Hammer : Use a soft faced hammer to strike hardened steel surface Use a heavy hammer for heavy jobs Replace the loose wedge with a good steel or wooden one, never use a nail Replace the hammer if the face is damaged or has grown brittle If the handle is greasy, clean it before using the hammer Always replaced cracked, splintered or broken handle, never repair them Keep your eyes on the spot you are hitting Use pliers to hold the work. Keep your hand out of the way Supervisor 3.3 Chisel : [Steel wedges, Punches and similar tools] Do not use mushroomed chisel Dress the head whenever signs of cracking or speadinf appears A chisel only large enough for one job should be selected so that the blade is used rather than only one point or corner Keep the cutting edge sharp and ground at right angle. A sharp edge takes a good bite and does not slip easily. With a dull-edged chisel you have to strike harder and there is more chance that the hammer may miss and hit your hand. Supervisor 3.4 Spanner / Wrench : Use wrnch of right size. Do not use worn wrench Always get the jaws squarely on the nut To prevent adjustable wrench from slipping, set the jaw up tight. Pull towards the movable jaw. Use a pipe wrench to remove worn nut Always hold something solid with one hand and keep the wrench under control. Never slip a pipe over a wrench to get more leverage. Get a bigger wrench. Never use a wrench around a moving machinery. Supervisor 3.5 Knife : Use sharp knife-occasionally, touch it up with whet stone Cut away from yourself - never towards any part of your body. When the job is over, put the knife in sheath If you are setting the knife down for only a moment, put it where it won't be in the way and don't leave it where it might fall. Supervisor

6. Procedure : VEHICULAR POLLUTION & PROCEDURE FOR FITNESS TESTING OF CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT'S
INTRODUCTION:
The exhaust fumes coming out of the tail ;pipe of vehicles, contain many polluting substances which is a major contributor for environmental damage and diseases. One research study says that 2.5 million people are estimated to die prematurely each year from pollution related ailments. It is estimated that currently our country is losing over 10 % of its G.D.P. in costs associated with damage to the environment and degradation of the countrys natural resources.
Air pollution and other health hazards caused by vehicles have reached an alarming proportion in the country. The vehicle population in the country has grown from 0.3 million (1951) to 25.34 million (1993) and contributing now around 50 to60% of the total air pollution in the cities. This is mainly contributed by cars. Two wheelers, three wheelers as they have old and III maintained engines, in chich nearly 30% of the fuel remains unburned.
VEHICULAR POLLUTANTS
The main pollution omitted in the automobile exhaust gases are carbon monoxide (CO), load aerosol, nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides and heterogenous groups of hydrocarbons Apart from this smoke (o.01 to 1 micron), Mists (2 to 200 micron) and ;particulate matter (1 to 200 micron) are also formed due to incomplete combustion and solid impurity contents of the fuel. In particular the diesel operated vehicles emit more toxic pollutants.

EFFECTS OF POLLUTANTS
Human Health :
- Carbon Monoxide : Hinders oxygen supply from blood into the tissues as a combines with the iron in the hemoglobin and thereby replacing oxygen in the hemoglobin, leading to variety of ailments. - Respirable particulate matter : 0.2 to 10 micron size of particulate matter can go directly into the lungs causing bronchial ;problems and allergic asthma. - Lead : It attacks the blood, kidneys and central nervous system. It can cause anemia, kidney failure, permanent brain damage and finally death also. - Environment : The ;pollutants such as SO 2 & NOx form acid rain and affect sometimes, vegetation, soil surfaces ; darken sky through formation of smoke leading to limited visibility and corrode metals. The ;plants are damaged by acute injury in which pollutants attack the cells resulting in chronic effects related to disruption of chlorophyll synthesis and thereby affecting the net yield of crops/ fruits.
SOURCES OF VEHICULAR POLLUTION
Vehicular emissions originate from changes in driving cycle (transient of steady state). Engine conditions (injection and aspiration) techniques, maintenance, total mileage), fuel composition (sulphur content, aromaticity, volatility), incomplete combustion and air/fuel/ ratio. Main ;places where ;pollution originates from the vehicle include engine crankcase , exhaust system, the carburetor and the fuel tank. The emission of particulate matter increases with decrease in air/fuel ration, increase in load and temperature. Malfunction of engine devices, especially fuel injection system, increases the omission of the main exhaust components.
POLLUTION CONTROL MEASURES Following measures may be adopted to reduce the emission:
- Modification of engine design to improve - Thermal reactors for complete fuel combustion efficiency oxidation of CO & HC - Exhaust gas recirculation for ensuring - Catalytic converter to reduce complete combustion emissions for unburned HC and CO - Use of particle traps for removing - Use of unleaded gasoline particulate matter - Use of low sulphur diesel - Use of low smoke lube oil for 2-stroke and mixed lubricating engines. - Use of alternate & cleaner fuels (CNG - Adopting cleaner vehicle standards. LPG,Methanol etc), - Improvement in traffic congestion - Introduction of efficient rapid mass transport systems. - Implementation of strict inspection/ - Driving vehicles at 50-60 KMPH maintenance programmes. Range - Avoiding idling at the traffic junctions/signals

Sr. Activity Responsibility 18 Any person affected by EDTA or other chemicals should be treated with flushed water first. If the affected area is considerable he should be given a total shower bath. Cut or burn injury should be treated with proper medicine. For any inhalation of vapour, the affected person should be taken to fresh air and administer artificial respiration. For any eye injury due to chemicals first flush with water. The eyelids should be pushed apart using the thumb and index finger. And then water washing jet should directed from the side of eye for 5 10 minutes. After that apply eye lotion. In the event of splashing of skin with chemicals the affected area should be thoroughly washed. For any injury of severe nature, he should be transferred to hospital after applying necessary first aid. Trained medical attendants services should be utilized while attending to the injured personnel. Concerned HOS 19 All the effluent from boiler after chemical cleaning should be stored first in effluent pit. The organic EDTA chemical solution is having pH of 8.5 to 9.0 and hence no treatment for pH adjustment is required as it would meet the pH requirement for disposal. Compressed air will be used to destroy the residual Hydrazina & organics and the effluent will be disposed after aeration for 10 days. The organic chemical is completely biodegradable. Concerned HOS 20 For any fire incident, applicable procedure is to be followed for extinguishing. Site I/C/Site HSE coordinator
