Gilsenan, Michael From: Bennett, Paul [DEPNET1/DEPGPO2/PaulB] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 12:26 PM To: Gilsenan, Michael Cc: Chapin, Diana 001; Greeley, Douglas Subject: WTC Contractor Health & Safety mtg 1/8/02

For some reason this e-mail never left my computer... I thought It was sent last week.

NYC DOH, Kelly McKinney, suggest I attend the WTC Contractor Health and Safety meeting this past Tuesday. Below is a summary of that meeting:

Date: 01/08/02, 8:00 AM Location: 3 World Financial Center, 26th Floor, Training Rm 5.

This meeting was chaired by DDC, however due to changes in the administration of the project, future meetings will be chaired by Bovis, one of the prime contractors.

Topics discussed included:

The requirement for all entering the site on a non-emergency basis to attend a site safety meeting. Classes are held weekly and last about 2 hours. Only those who will be going into the pit or will be working by debris piles will need this additional training. Emergency access can be granted. Anyone planning on entering the pit should contact me. I can make the proper arrangements.

The requirement to ware reflective vests while on site.

Reemphasized the minimum approach to a working grappler is 50 feet. Five people have been hit by grapplers.

Personal monitoring indicated Jack-hammering / concrete pad break-up operations resulted in silica levels exceeding the standard by 20 times

OSHA presented their Air Sampling Report (I'll distribute a copy via inter-office mail).

Liberty Mutual (the insurance carriers for the site) also presented Occupational Health Hazard Overview. (I'll distribute a copy this also).

No other significant issues were discussed.

I plan to attend the next couple of meetings and provide a report following each. Depending on the direction the meetings take, 1 may or may not continue attending.

The next meeting is Jan 15, 8:00 AM 3 World Financial Center, 26 th Fir Training Rm 5.
