2.1.2 Site Setuo
During site setup procedures, portions of the fencing within the
residential lots were removed and temporary fencing was placed at the
approximate locations shown in Figure 3. In addition, temporary fencing
was placed around the perimeter of the site and a pedestrian walkway was
constructed outside of the primary site security fencing. The excavation
was sealed off from the residential lots by using temporary fencing lined
with visquene.
Because of the temporary nature of the site fencing and the risk of public
exposure, full time security was maintained at the site. These security
measures were necessary to prevent access to the site by non-authorized
personnel and thereby reduce public exposure and protect onsite supplies
and equipment.
During setup procedures, the office areas within the building, areas used
by construction personnel, and areas used for material/supply storage were
cleaned. Cleaning of the office consisted of boxing all materials, papers,
and debris for future DHS review. All debris, equipment parts, and tanks
outside the office and within the area required for storage were moved to
other portions of the building outside the storage area. These materials
were handled under the same level of protection as presented in Section 4.0
of this report.
During preparation of the work plan and during site setup activities, the
City of San Francisco was contacted for the purpose of determining permit
procedures and requirements. Due to the nature of the work (hazardous
waste removal) normal permit procedures did not apply, and confusion
developed concerning the type of permitting that would be required.
Because of the permit conditions and requirements, delays to the project
and increased work requirements resulted. The changes to the schedule are
