INFORMATION ON EXPOSURE TO HAZARDOUS MATERIAL As required by 29 CFR 1910.1200, The Hazard Communications Standard, the shipyard must inform you (as a contractor employer with employees working in the shipyard) of the hazardous materials used at the Shipyard which your employees may be exposed to while working here and also to suggest appropriate protective measures. This section informs you as required. Your own responsibilities as an employer, if any, are given in 29 CFR 1910.1200. 1. Hazardous materials your employees may be exposed to. Hazardous materials are materials which are cancer causing agents, toxic or highly toxic agents, reproductive toxins, irritants, corrosives, sensitizers, liver toxins, kidney toxins, agents which act on the blood forming system, and agents which damage the lungs, skins, eyes or mucous membranes. There are many potentially hazardous chemicals present at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard which, unless controlled properly, could present a safety and health problem. The presence of many potentially hazardous materials may be apparent from the manufacturer's warning label on the hazardous material containers. These hazardous materials range in type and quantity. Typical hazardous materials are: a. Metals, e.g., mercury, lead, chromium b. Solvents, e.g., disinfectants, cleaning and polishing compounds and preparations, dopes, thinners, flammable inks c. Paints and adhesives, e.g., varnishes and related products, sealing compounds, asphalt, deck and floor coverings, deck compounds d. Corrosives, e.g., acids, alkalis e. Compressed and liquefied gas, e.g., nitrogen, argon, oxygen, acetylene f. Lubricants and oils, e.g., greases, cutting oils, hydraulic oils, miscellaneous waxes and fats g. Fuels, e:g., liquid propellants, fuel oils, oxidizers, solid fuels h. Particulates, e.g., asbestos fiberglass, dust, fumes, mist Depending on the material involved, materials such as these can present physical hazards and or health hazards. The presence of many potentially hazardous materials may be apparent due to their physical characteristics, such as the visual appearance of abrasive blasting dust or the distinctive smell of many solvents. 2. Labeling of Hazardous Material. Containers of potentially hazardous chemicals bear manufacturer's labeling, which identifies the chemical and it manufacturer, and provides appropriate hazard warnings. In addition, some materials may be labeled with the National Protection Association (NFPA) 704 label. This label uses a system of color coded symbols and numbers to convey the potential hazard of the material. The contractor should obtain information from NFPA concerning the interpretation of the 704 label. 3. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). The Occupational Safety and Health Office at the shipyard maintains copies of manufacturers' Material Safety Data sheets for potentially hazardous chemicals/materials that are known to be present in the shipyard. The contractor may, upon request to the Occupational Safety and Health Office, review Material Safety Data Sheets for any specific materials to which contractor employees may be exposed while performing work in the shipyard workplace. This information may be reviewed in the Occupational Safety and Health Office. 4. Appropriate Protective Measures. Exposure to potentially hazardous material may occur from inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with the material: therefore, the following precautions should be taken: a. Obey signs, directions and warning labels; b. Do not use unknown or labeled materials; c. Only operate shipyard equipment that you are authorized to operate, familiar with, and qualified to operate; d. If any health effects (skin rash, trouble breathing, etc.) occur, which you feel are caused by exposure to shipyard hazardous material, contact Code 106.1. For specific information on any hazardous material contact Code 106.1, Building 22, phone (207)438-200 1, Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth, NH 03801-5000.
