This document is a guide outlining the confined space requirements for contractors working with ARG. It specifies that contractors must adhere to ARG's SAFE-10 Confined Space and SAFE-54 Safe Work Permit protocols, with any deviations leading to removal from the facility. The guide details the permitting process, which includes conducting a joint jobsite walkthrough and isolation verification. It emphasizes the necessity of proper training for all employees involved in confined space entry. Key procedures are outlined, including the need for an approved permit and a rescue plan before entry, and the requirement for entrants to use calibrated personal gas monitors. The guide also specifies the role of a confined space attendant, who must be dedicated to monitoring the entry and ensuring safety protocols are followed. Additionally, it covers personal protective equipment (PPE), lighting, ventilation requirements, and rope rescue protocols, including necessary training and equipment for contractors.
