(see excavation in High Risk Work, Section 16) d. Location of new utilities will be verified with the engineer on the project drawings and in the field prior to excavation. e. Existing utilities will be clearly marked and sufficiently protected to eliminate any danger to employees or damage by new construction. f. If any unforeseen or hazardous conditions are encountered during the installation of underground utilities, all work in that area will stop immediately, employees will be removed from the area and Praxair and REC shall be notified. 10. Confined Space Entry All areas deemed confined spaces shall only be entered after following actions have been completed: • Ensure the R.E.C. confined Space Entry Guidance Document "Confined Space Assessment Process: has been implemented. • Ensure all requirements of PRAXAIR P-15-264C, Contractor Rules for construction Safety Section 3.44 Confined Spaces are in place. 12 • Following the guidelines set forth in the Swank Enterprises Confined Space Program. • (SEE Site Specific CONFINED SPACE ADDENDUM) 11. Emergency Response Plan • General This section covers the procedures to follow in the event of an emergency at this project work site. These guidelines provide rules and procedures in the event of emergency conditions like fires, injured workers, excavation failures, and exposure to hazardous or unknown materials. They should be supplemented with good judgment. In the event of an emergency, as at all other times, the paramount consideration should be the safety of employees and the public. General job site communication shall be on job radios, channel 16. Emergency job communication shall be on job radio channel 5, dialing 4444 on a site telephone, or pulling an EAB. • Evacuation The REC facility has 3 basic emergency levels. The first is a General Emergency. This emergency is signaled by a 15 second siren. When this signal is heard, power down equipment and walk out of operating area and proceed to the unit safety center. The second emergency situation will be a Vapor Cloud Warning. This emergency is signaled by a 60 second siren. At this siren, check the wind direction, look for a vapor cloud and proceed to assembly area. If vapor cloud is in blocking access to immediate assembly area, proceed up wind to secondary assembly area and report to supervisor. The third type of emergency is a Plant Evacuation. This is indicated by a 15 second siren. Check wind direction, do not pass through a vapor cloud if present, and head for 6-Wide parking area. In the event the jobsite must be evacuated, Jamey Mullaney of Swank Enterprises shall notify all of Swank Enterprises employees and the supervisors of every subcontractor on the site. The subcontractor supervisors will be responsible for gathering their employees and meeting at the designated assembly area. The REC Silicon designated muster points are: maintenance shop for general alarms; main lunch room for vapor cloud alarms. The Project Superintendent will then notify Praxair, REC Silicon, Bob Meinhardt and David Stewart of Swank Enterprises of the situation and of the actions, which have been taken. Once the personnel have been assembled, a head count will be taken of ALL project personnel. The construction trailer sign in roster will be used to conduct the head count. Construction Superintendent or their designate will be responsible for taking the sign in roster to the muster point. Then a decision will be made whether to further evacuate or to stay at the assembly point. All personnel will stay together until REC Silicon gives an all clear. 13 • Emergency response All personnel working on the site will be required to be familiar with the emergency response procedures. A list of employees with first aid, fire protection, and or other emergency response background shall be established and maintained to assist or augment the local Emergency Response Agencies. Given the nature of the emergency, primary consideration will be given to the safety of the employees and people on site. If the situation allows, first aid will be administered to any injured individual and the severity of the injury will be accessed and appropriate action will be executed. In case of fire, the first response will be to notify the local fire department (REC's E-Squad). If the nature of the fire allows for an on site response, then the site fire fighting equipment will be utilized on a first response basis. If the fire is developed beyond first response degree, then site evacuation procedures will be implemented. In cases requiring rescue, the Project Superintendent will render an assessment of the needed equipment, the appropriate local emergency response department will be notified and rescue operations will commence. Emergencies involving hazardous materials will be handled under the guidelines of Swank Enterprises Hazard Communication Program. All local emergency response providers; REC E-Squad, hospital, fire department, poison control, and EMT telephone numbers will be posted in the job site construction office trailer. A map outlining the evacuation route out of the job site and the route to the local hospital will also be posted in the job site trailer. Documentation of any accident and or injury will be on file in the job site office trailer and copies will be available to Praxair and REC Silicon. 12. Hot Work • Fire-keep all combustibles away from welding and cutting operations, must have a hot work permit before beginning any hot work and comply with all conditions on the permit. • All gas cylinders for cutting and welding purposes shall be stored correctly, hoses and gauges shall be removed and caps replaced when not in use. • Gas cylinders used for cutting and welding purposes shall never be stored in a confined space • Inspect all weld machines, leads, clamps, hoses, gauges and regulators, torches and gas cylinders prior to use. • A trained and properly equipped Firewatch shall be provided for all cutting, welding or other spark producing activities. 14 • Obtain a PRAXAIR permit prior to any welding, cutting, or spark producing activities. .

EMPLOYEE EDUCATION AND TRAINING This section is to outline employee education and training requirements in regard to hazardous materials and chemicals. 19 1. SWANK ENTERPRISES Employees will be provided information and training on hazardous materials and chemicals they may be exposed to in their work area. The training will take place at the time of initial assignment and whenever a new hazard is introduced into the work area. 2. SWANK ENTERPRISES Employees will be informed of any operations on the job site where hazardous materials may be present. Training will include: • Methods and observations that may be used to detect the presence or release of a hazardous chemical or material in the work area(such as monitoring conducted by the employer, continuous monitoring devices, visual appearance or odor of hazardous chemicals when being released, etc.)' • The physical and health hazards of the chemicals or materials on the job site. • The measures employees can take to protect themselves from these hazards. • Specific procedures the employer has implemented to protect employees from exposure to hazardous materials and chemicals, such as appropriate work practices. Emergency procedures and Personal Protective Equipment to be used and maintained. The details of SWANK ENTERPRISES Hazard Communication Program, including: • An explanation of the labeling system. • How to read and us the MSDS's and labels. • On the job training dealing with specific hazards relating to an employees job site. Reviews and updates of the program will be conducted during scheduled safety meetings. SWANK ENTERPRISES reserves the right to change or modify the training program outline to satisfy site specific job requirements. 14. Severe Weather While generally Montana enjoys stable weather, there are occasions when there can be the potential for snow storms, ice storms, extreme cold temperatures, high winds and flooding. Given the time of year that this project in the Butte area, the main concern shall be cold weather issues. The project superintendent, Jamey Mullaney, shall monitor job site weather conditions and determine whether work shall begin and or proceed under the current conditions. Generally, all employees are expected to report to work unless major thoroughfares have been closed due to extreme weather. Quite often, bad weather conditions are localized in one area and, simply by waiting, you may be able to safely arrive at work later in the day. Under these circumstances, you should call your project superintendent to advise them of the poor weather conditions in your area and your expected time of arrival. Depending upon the circumstances, your superintendent may tell you simply to remain at home that day. 20 If you believe that adverse weather conditions are occurring in the area, you should try to contact your superintendent at home, the job site or call the office to determine if a particular project is to be closed. On occasion, bad weather occurs during the day after you have arrived at work. Depending upon the circumstances, you may be directed to a place of safety within the building or you may be told to leave. As an example, if a snow storm is threatening, the project may be closed early to allow you additional time to get home before the storm arrives. In the event that a project is opened late or closed early because of hazardous weather, the following will be applied for paying wages to hourly employees: • if the project is closed during the day to permit employees to leave early, employees will be paid for actual hours worked. • If the opening of the project is delayed, employees will be paid for actual hours worked. • Employees who do not report to work when the project is open will not be paid for the day. • It may be necessary to work longer hours later in the week due to a closing. Overtime pay will be paid for those employees who actually work more than 40 hours in that week. As you are provided an option to remain home during inclement weather, the company will not be responsible for any personal injuries or property damage if you attempt to arrive at work. You should use your best judgment in deciding whether it is reasonable for you to attempt to get to work. Planning for work in cold weather is the most important defense. Wearing appropriate clothing and being aware of how the body reacts to the cold are important. Avoid alcohol, certain medications and smoking that impair proper circulation. Workers shall have access to a warm area (65 IF or above) for changing of clothes and taking breaks as necessary. Older workers and workers with circulatory problems may require special attention when subject to cold stress. Wearing the right clothing is the most important way to avoid cold stress. The type of fabric also makes a difference. Cotton loses its insulation value when it becomes wet. Wool, on the other hand, retains its insulation even when wet. Adequate insulating dry clothing should be required in air or wind chill temperatures below 40 IF. Inadequately dressed personnel may be subject to work restrictions and or dismissed from work by Jamey Mullaney, Project Superintendent. The following are clothing recommendations for working in cold environments: • Wear at least 3 layers of clothing • An outer layer to break the wind and allow some ventilation (like Gortex® or nylon) • A middle layer of down or wool to absorb sweat and provide insulation even when wet 21 • An inner layer of wicking type material (like polypropylene or silk) to allow for ventilation • Wear insulated head covering as most body heat is lost through the head • Wear insulated work shoes and gloves • Keep a dry change of clothes available if your clothing becomes wet • Keep layers of clothing loose and not tight for better ventilation • Skin should not be left exposed on a continuous basis when air temperature or chill factors are below - 17 OF. Work Practices • Drink plenty of liquids, avoiding caffeine and alcohol that are vasoconstrictors. It is easy to become dehydrated in cold weather. • Work Scheduling: If possible, schedule heavy work during the warmer parts of the day. Implement a work-warming regimen by taking breaks out of the cold. Guidance for work-warming regimens can be found in Engineering Controls For Cold Stress Environments • Peer Check/Buddy System: Work in pairs to keep an eye on each other and watch for signs of cold stress. Engineering Controls For Cold Stress Environments Some engineering controls to consider could include: • Use of radiant heaters to warm workers • Shielding workers from drafts and winds • Use insulating material on equipment handles when temperatures drop below 300 F. 15. Regulatory and other required postings In order to ensure that Praxair's reputation is held in the highest regard, the appropriate behavior by Swank Enterprises employees upon the arrival of a regulatory inspector is: • Be courteous and polite. • Request the inspector's identification (if not already presented). • Ask the inspector the nature of his/her visit. • Contact the designated Praxair representative. • Ensure that the legitimate needs of the inspector are met. • Ensure that the interests of Praxair are protected. • Ensure that the proper contractor representative is present. • If appropriate, escort the inspector to the work area. 22 Based on an inspection's results, the Construction Manager, Praxair, and/or Swank Enterprises could be subject to monetary penalties for violating safety standards. This contractual relationship expects that Swank Enterprises will conduct work in a manner that preserves the safety of all concerned. A designated bulletin board will be utilized for all official postings and/or pertinent information. The Swank Enterprises Superintendent is responsible for updating and ensuring that all pertinent information is posted on the Project Bulletin Board. The Project bulletin Board shall be erected in a conspicuous place accessible to all employees. 16. High Risk Work High-risk work is identified using a Construction Hazardous Work Permit, (CHWP) or a Hazardous Work Permit, (HWP). Only qualified personnel can issue a CHWP. A CHWP will only be issued when work being performed is deemed by Swank Enterprises Site Superintendent, Jamey Mullaney and Site Safety Engineer, Monty Jenson together with Praxair Field Construction Manager above and beyond normal practice for general working conditions and the work being performed dictates that a CHWP be required. A HWP shall be issue when there is work to be performed in the Praxair Operations Area. Praxair shall be responsible for coordinating the HWP with the Operations facility.

Job Safety Analysis Swank Enterprises shall produce a typed JSA (Job Safety Analysis) for all high risk activities, including but not limited as indicated above. The JSA's will be reviewed for all high-risk work with Praxair Field Construction Manager and Jamey Mullaney and Monty Jensen prior to the JSA/task safety meeting. JSA's shall be explained and reviewed with all involved trade personnel prior to executing the task. All high-risk work JSA's developed by the contractor shall be attached to the CHWP that will be issued for the respective work and posted per the Work Permit Procedure.(section 34) 18. TASK SPECIFIC SAFETY TRAINING (TSST) TSST's involve explaining to each employee the safety steps that pertain to the job. Monty Jensen, Site Safety Engineer, is responsible to give the safety steps to all employees and subcontractors, either individually or in a group, before they begin a task. The instruction may require a few words; but in many cases, it requires a demonstration of how the job can be done safely while pointing out hazards that may be encountered. Monty Jensen, Site Safety Engineer, verifies that all employees understand what they are expected to do to safely perform their tasks. Employees must be instructed to report immediately to Monty Jensen, Site Safety Engineer, of any hazard they observe. The contractor is responsible to initiate corrective action in a timely manner and maintain documentation of TSST, reported hazards, and corrective actions taken. 26 19.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Swank Enterprises shall provide suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) (e.g. eye protection, gloves and respiratory protection) to their employees. Swank Enterprises will conduct a PPE survey as part of the JSA and PPE training as part of the TSST for all tasks performed by their employees. The PPE assessment for the project and PPE training documentation will be available at the project office inside the "6-Wide" building. Employees shall not begin work until they are wearing proper PPE. It is acceptable by Swank Enterprises and all hard hat manufacturers to allow a hard hat to be worn in the reverse position as long as the suspension system is properly installed and worn with the adjuster to the back and the sweat band on the forehead. 21. Elevated Work Any elevated work requires positive fall protection. This protection can be guardrails, personal fall arrest system, safety net system, safety monitor system, control access zone system or other approved devices and or systems that adequately protect personnel. A fall protection system is required for all elevated work of 6 feet (1.8 meters) or more above ground level and or a lower working surface. All personnel working at a position elevated above 6 feet (1.8 meters) from a lower working surface, or working on tanks and vessels shall be protected from a fall by a fall protection system. All personnel always shall face the ladder when ascending or descending and maintain 3-point contact. While elevated work is being conducted, barricade the work area (as appropriate) to prevent entry by unauthorized personnel. Only personnel trained in the use of the fall protection system and it's equipment shall perform elevated work. Where a safety harness and shock-absorbing lanyard are used, a review of the work must ensure that there is sufficient elevation for the shock absorber to function before the employee reaches the platform or floor. The following equipment shall be inspected as part of the daily site inspection. • All ladders • Scaffolds • Rigging equipment • Any other equipment used in elevated work 29 2 2. Lockout / Tagout MOTO) LOTO for the commissioning of the project shall be directed and implemented by Praxair. Any additional LOTO that may be required for equipment tie-in or other type activities shall be implemented and directed by REC and Praxair. LOTO for servicing and maintaining construction equipment under control of Swank Enterprises shall be implemented and directed by Swank Enterprises, under their LOTO program. Locking Procedure: The source of energy of the equipment (valve, circuit breaker, disconnect, etc.) must be properly locked in the off position with an approved multiple lockout and/or padlock. Each person working on the equipment will attach his/her own individually keyed and labeled padlock to the multiple lockout. The equipment control (switch, button, handle, photo-eye, etc.) must be tested to make sure the correct sources of energy have been disconnected. When all sources of energy - electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, gravity or steam - have been reduced to a "zero mechanical state" and cannot be restarted unless the padlocks are removed, the system is properly locked out and work can begin. When working on some equipment, the in-feed or preceding transfers or equipment must also be locked out. Unlocking Procedure: After completion of the work, the next steps must be taken in the following sequence: Check the machine or equipment and the immediate area to ensure all parts/tools have been removed, and that the machine/equipment is operationally intact. Check the work area to ensure that all employees are clear of the equipment and safely positioned from the area. Verify that the controls are in the off or neutral position. Remove the lockout devices (if necessary, re-energize the equipment). Notify affected employees that the work has been completed and the equipment is ready for use. (Test-run the equipment if necessary.) 30 Equipment that could present a hazard to personnel by inadvertently activating during installation, repair, alteration, cleaning, or inspection work must be made inoperable and free of stored energy and materials prior to the start of work. The equipment must be secured by locking and tagging devices. All LOTO conducted as part of commissioning and startup activities must be approved by the Praxair Management team.

Swank and their subcontractors shall adhere to the Injury and Illness Reporting Policies set forth in the Swank Enterprises Safety Plan booklet Section 5. All incidents shall be reported to Praxair within a 24 hour time frame of the incident. Accident investigations shall be performed and completed in no more than 7 days from the time of the accident. 27. Accountability and Disciplinary Action Process All Project participants including subcontractors' management, supervision and employees are to the Accountability and Disciplinary Action Process and can be removed from the Project site at the discretion of the Swank Enterprises Construction Site Superintendent. Disciplinary Action-The Company has a Progressive Discipline Policy for administering equitable and consistent discipline for unsatisfactory conduct (including unsafe work practices) in the workplace. The best disciplinary measure is one that does not have to be enforced and is fostered by good leadership and competent supervision at all organization levels. Disciplinary action may call for any of the following four (4) steps: verbal warning, written warning, suspension with or without pay, or termination of employment depending on the severity of the problem and the number of occurrences. Explanations include: Verbal Reprimand This form of discipline should be used when it becomes necessary to remind an employee of general safety rules (i.e., safety glasses, hard hats, etc.). A verbal reprimand should be documented and placed in the employee's personnel file for future reference. When it becomes apparent that an individual is being constantly reminded of safety rules as a result of violations, a more stringent reprimand may be in order. Written Reprimand A written reprimand should be issued for repeat safety violations or when a more serious violation occurs. Safety violations, which result in injury or incident, should be examined very closely. Inmost cases, this type of violation will warrant a written reprimand. When written reprimands are issued, it may include three days off without pay. In all cases, written reprimands should be filled out by the employee's supervisor and have the employee sign the 33 reprimand prior to placing it in his personnel file. If the employee refuses to sign, note on the reprimand of such refusal. Project Removal Project Removal is the most extreme reprimand measure that can be taken against an employee. This action should be taken against safety violators who show no regard for the safety of themselves or fellow employees. An employee that is violating rules and safe work practices is potentially endangering him and others and should be discharged for cause. There are several first time violations, which should be considered, for immediate removal from the project, (i.e., smoking in unauthorized areas, drinking or bringing alcoholic beverages to the job site, use or distribution of drugs, fighting, horseplay, failure to follow fall protection policy, etc.). This Policy of disciplinary action should be enforced at all times. If Safety violations or unsafe acts are not controlled, they will inevitably lead to'the deterioration of the Safety Program. The following are some basic rules that should be followed when enforcing a policy of this type: • Safety rules, regulations, and procedures must be effectively communicated to all employees. The policy must be equitably administered to all employees. Adherence to this policy can only enhance our Safety Program and benefit all employees. 28. Environmental Protection See Site Specific Spill Plan (attached at end of program) 29. Subcontractor Safety Our subcontractors work under the strict supervision of our project manager and project superintendents. Subcontractors and all their employee's are required to read, understand, acknowledge, and implement safe working practice's in accordance with Swank Enterprises Safety Program, our daily written JSA program, our weekly safety tool box meetings, and our in house training seminars. Specifically on this project, Tri-County Mechanical and Arc Electric shall be considered a labor contractor in which they shall supply skilled labor. The direction, planning and oversight of work being performed and the safe work practices and performance involved in those processes shall be the responsibility and controlled by Swank Enterprises. For other subcontractors that shall perform work on this site they shall be required to submit to and be accepted by Swank Enterprises based on the following Pre-Qualification process. Swank Enterprises shall evaluate each subcontractor based on the criteria below and shall notify Praxair when a subcontractor does not meet minimum industry standards. A. Subcontractor Pre-qualification Process: 1. Subcontractors are required to submit to Swank Enterprises a Subcontractors Performance and Pre-qualification Report prior to 34 mobilization. This report will include, but not be limited to the following: • Experience Modification Rates for Workers Compensation • OSHA Incident Rates for Recordable Injuries and Illnesses • Subcontractor Safety Programs and Procedures 2. Subcontractor Safety Planning: Subcontractors working for Swank Enterprises are to comply with this Site Specific Safety Plan, and the Swank Enterprises Corporate Health and Safety Policy Manual. Job hazard analysis shall be performed prior to commencement of any work. Contractor's specific requirements include, but are not limited to: • Ensure that all employees receive PRAXAIR Contractors Safety Orientation prior to starting work. • Provide all necessary personal protective equipment to employees, and ensure its proper use. • Maintain all necessary records and submit required reports. • Attend Swank Enterprises weekly toolbox safety meetings. • Obtain all work permits as required. • Take immediate corrective action on any discrepancies observed. • Conduct and document safety audits to ensure compliance with Swank Enterprises and PRAXAIR safety rules.

A full investigation report will follow within 24 hours • Subcontractors shall complete the Monthly summary of Subcontractor Injuries for each month in which they conduct work on the N-85/SMR Addition Project. These reports are due to the Swank Enterprises Superintendent by the third Thursday of the month. 35 • Subcontractors are also responsible for and shall comply with all Federal and State accident reporting and record keeping requirements for their employees. • The Swank Enterprises Management Team must be informed promptly of any accidents. Serious injuries, illnesses, or any accident involving a third party or a member of the general public must be reported to Site Management IMMEDIATELY. Site Management must be informed immediately of any OSHA, EPA, or other safety or health regulatory agencies actions involving the Subcontractor's work. 30. Substance Abuse Testing Swank Enterprises has a vital interest in maintaining a safe and healthful work environment for its employees. Drug and alcohol use pose serious safety and health risks to the user and all who work with and around the user. The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and other legislation and Federal regulations require employers to take appropriate action to maintain a safe work place and to address drug and alcohol use specifically. All Employees and subcontractors shall adhere to the requirements set forth in the Swank Enterprises Safety Plan booklet Section 6. 31. Compressed Gas Cylinders Compressed gas cylinders can pose unique and specific hazards. Swank Enterprises Employees and their sub-contractors shall ensure the transportation, use , placement and storage of compresses gas cylinders is done in accordance with the requirements set forth in The PRAXAIR contractor Rules for Construction Safety. 3 2. Smoking Policy Smoking is allowed only in the designated smoking area, located out side of the 6-Wide trailers in the construction parking lot. There shall be absolutely no smoking in side the plant area or on any other REC property. Failure to abide by this policy may result in immediate termination. 33. Housekeeping Good Housekeeping habits play a large role in environmental excellence. Workers are encouraged not to delay in clean-up efforts until the end of the job. Rather, clean up as you go. Continuous monitoring and clean up is crucial in providing a safe work place. Any type of poor housekeeping display compromises a safe construction site. The general housekeeping requirements are outlined in the Swank Enterprises Safety Plan Booklet Section 1. 36 34. Work Permit Procedures Work Permits Unless other wise directed by Praxair's Field Construction Manager(FCM), Swank shall not perform any work on site without a daily work permit being issued by Praxair. Swank deems the entire construction site to be a hazardous environment due to weather conditions. Swank is anticipating daily cold weather condition of below freezing temperatures and heavy snow.Given these harsh conditions for performing,reporting&issuing work permits safely. Work permits shall be initially issued in the site construction office and verified thereafter in the field,prior to work commencing. Note: Swank requires all personnel working in the field to sign-in on a daily work permit. In formulating a Site Specific work permit process, Swank shall utilize the following procedural steps,as follows: 1. Swank will submit,for Praxair review and approval,Job Safety Analysis(JSA's)for all hazardous proposed work tasks the prior work day. 2. The morning of proposed JSA tasks,prior to(7:00 AM)work starting time.The Praxair FCM or designee will review JSA's with the Swank Construction Superintendent or designee. 3. Upon acceptance of JSA's by Praxair,the Swank Construction Superintendent and the Praxair FCM will meet with the assigned craft and/or crew, in the construction office. And review the JSA's and CHWP's work scopes for the intended daily tasks. 4. Following a full review of the JSA's the Praxair FCM(or designee)will issue the work permit(CHWP). Note: All contractor personnel working on the Project Construction site must sign the bottom of the associated CHWP for his or her task prior to working on site. 5. After the permit is issued, Swank will remove the top copy(half sheet)from the permit and deliver it to the FCM along with copies of the pertinent JSA's for posting in the Praxair Construction Office. 6. Swank's full sheet copy(yellow ball sheet)shall be carried to the field by a Swank Representative accompanied also by a Praxair Representative and posted in the designated area hooch(Safe,dry enclosure). Note: Prior to field posting of the JSA Swank and the Praxair Representative shall re-verify all site conditions associated with the CHWP task. 7. Upon completion of CHWP activities,the Swank Field Representative and Praxair Representative shall verify all activities have stopped and the associated work areas are clear. The Swank Field Representative shall then remove(Pull)the permit(yellow ball sheet)from the field and return it to the Praxair Construction Office for cancellation by the issuer. 8. HWP's for existing plant operation areas only.HWP's will be issued by plant operations personnel only. Swank shall submit JSA's to the Praxair plant operator and adhere to all posting and procedural requirements of Praxair Plant Operations. 9.

Spill prevention is the bases for our programs in controlling environmental degradation. The quantities of potentially environmentally harmful or hazardous materials located on our construction sites are minimal. However, this does not minimize our efforts in the spill prevention and response. Prevention of spills and releases to the environment shall be of the utmost importance to Swank enterprises. However, should a spill or release of hazardous materials occur,response to the situation shall be prompt. 47 SECTION ONE MATERIAL STORAGE Storage of large quantities of diesel fuels, gasoline, oils, lubricants, coolants, solvents and any other regulated substances is not anticipated on this project. However, if such storage is required, it shall be confined to one designated area. This storage area will meet all applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations. Swank Enterprises will consult and receive approval by Praxair and REC as to the location of the storage area on this site. If the quantities of the stored material exceed the maximum limits, as outlined by SARA Title III. Subcontractors requiring storage of materials on the site will be directed to use the established storage area.

These hazards, when encountered, could cause bodily injury, illness or death to a worker. It is Swank Enterprises policy that all areas, which may be considered a confined space, are recognized and evaluated. If the area is determined to be a confined space, then appropriate procedures will be enacted. 2 Definitions • Non-Permitted Confined Space: o Confined space that does not contain or have the potential to contain any atmospheric hazards capable of causing death or serious physical harm. • Permit Required Confined Space (PRCS): o Confined space with one or more of the following characteristics; contains or has the potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere, contains a material with the potential for engulfing an entrant, internal configuration that could trap or asphyxiate by converging or sloping walls. 3 Confined Space Survey The Safety Director with the assistance of the Project Superintendent and the Project Manager shall review the project prior to commencement to determine if any confined spaces exist and if the space qualifies as a Permit Requiring Confined Space. For work in existing facilities, the Project Superintendent will be responsible for contacting the facility owner to determine if there are any PRCS in the proposed work areas and what precautions need to be taken prior to entry. The survey results will include: Location of all identified PROS. Evaluation and identity of all hazards that may be present in the PRCS (gases, vapors, mists, liquids, physical hazards). Determination of entry into the PRCS is necessary. Specifically - Why must workers enter the PRCS? - Can the tasks be accomplished from outside the PRCS? If tasks can be performed safely and adequately from outside the PRCS, all entry is prohibited without written permission of the Safety Director. 4 Hazard Control: If any work place contains Permit Required Confined Spaces the management and superintendent shall inform all employees of the hazards. Procedures will be developed to prevent unauthorized entry into a PRCS. Employee training will include: Identifying the hazards of the PRCS in the work area. How the PRCS entry program works. Prohibiting entry into the space unless the PRCS procedures are followed. 53 Warning signs shall be posted at all entries to PRCS and where practical physical barricades. Danger signs will read: DANGER PERMIT-REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE DO NOT ENTER ANYEMPLOYEE ENTERING CONFINED SPACE WITHOUT FOLLOWING THE PROCEDURES WILL BE SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE TERMINATION. 5 Identified Site Confined Spaces -Hydrogen Receivers (2) -PSA Vessels (4) -SMR Vent Drum -SMR Reformer -SMR Condensate Sump -N-85 Cold Box 6 Personnel All entry into PRCS will be made by a PRCS Entry Team. At a minimum the team will consist of: ■ PRCS Entry Supervisor ■ PRCS Attendant ■ PRCS Entrant(s) All entry team members will be trained in their respective tasks prior to being assigned to a team. Entry Supervisor- That person appointed by the Project Superintendent who will authorize all confined space entry. This person shall be knowledgeable about and shall have training and education in the operations to be performed in confined spaces and is competent in evaluating hazards and administering confined space entry. (This person may also serve as an attendant.) The entry supervisor shall receive training in: ■ The identification of confined spaces • The recognition of confined space hazards ■ The proper use of the Permit Entry System ■ The necessary procedures and practices for safe entry ■ The use of personal protective equipment ■ When and how to terminate entry operations 54 ■ The implementation of rescue procedures ■ Dealing with unauthorized personnel ■ The termination of the permit upon completion of work Attendant- The employee stationed outside the confined space to monitor the employees working inside the confined space and to restrict unauthorized entry.

Who will be in charge of rescue efforts. 56 10 Program Review and Termination: Safety Director and the Project Superintendent will update and or modify the PRCS program and training requirements to reflect any changes in the PRCS conditions. In the event of any accidents,near misses or irregularities experienced during PRCS entries, the CHWP will be canceled, all personnel removed from the confined space and a review will be conducted to determine the cause and the required steps to be taken to prevent reoccurrence. Project Superintendent will cancel the PRCS Entry Program when all work in that area is completed. Safety Director will confirm completion of work and cancellation of Entry Program. 11 Subcontractors: All subcontractors that will be involved with any PRCS activities must have a PRCS program. The program will be on site and reviewed by the Project Superintendant or the Project Safety Engineer,prior to the commencement of any work in the PRCS. If in the Project Superintendant or the Safety Engineer's opinion, the subcontractor's PRCS Program is inadequate, either has the authority to prohibit entry into the PRCS. 12 Permit System: A written permit system will be used to ensure all precautions are taken prior to and during entry of a PRCS. The permit to be used is in Appendix 1. 1. Prior to entry,the Project Superintendant or Project Safety Engineer will review the Confined Space Survey results(Section I)to determine what equipment and procedures will be required. 2. Entry permits will be issued only by the Project Safety Engineer or the Project Superintendent. The Project Superintendent, Project Safety Engineer or Entry Supervisor will conduct an on-site review of the location prior to entry to ensure all precautions have been taken. 3. The Project Superintendent or the Project Safety Engineer will sign the permit prior to entry to indicate that all precautions have been taken. The permit is not valid without a signature. Variances from the entry permit may only be made under the written authorization of the Superintendant or Safety Engineer. 4. The permit or copies will be posted at each entry to the PRCS. 5. Entry permits will be valid for up to 12 hours or until the work task is completed— whichever is shorter. At the end of 12 hours, a new permit must be issued. If work is unintentionally interrupted, and the PRCS vacated prior to task completion,the Entry Supervisor will notify the Project Superintendant or Project Safety Engineer to decide if a new permit should be issued. 6. All canceled permits shall be forwarded to the Superintendant or Safety Engineer for review and records retention. 57 13 Confined Space Entry Permit Outline: This can only be initiated by an authorized entry supervisor. This supervisor shall ensure that all requirements of the permit have been met. When completed,the entry supervisor shall be responsible for posting this pecan at the entry location and removing it when the work has been completed.

Purpose 2. Scope 3. Applicability 4. Guidelines 4.1 Planning 4.2 Preparing and Testing 4.3 Personnel 4.4 Performing the Lift 5. Subcontractor Safety 5.1 Strongs Crane Service 6. Working at Elevated Heights/ Fall Protection 6.1 Identifying Fall Hazards: 6.2 Elimination of Fall Hazards 6.3 Personal Fall Arrest Systems Records Maintained and Available upon Request: ■ Annual crane inspection records ■ Operator qualifications/license 1. Purpose The following guidelines are to help plan lifts so that potential hazards can be identified and controlled. 2. Scope Basic safety, planning and lift control elements are outlined below. The more complex lifts shall be outlined in the critical lift plans, submitted by Strongs Crane Service. Lift plans are 60 prepared in accordance with Praxair's rules for construction safety. 3. Applicability These guidelines apply to all lifts performed at REC Silicon, as part of the Praxair N85 & SMR addition project. 4. Guidelines 4.1 Planning • Characterize the load in terms of dimensions, weight, and center of gravity. • Characterize the task in terms of lifting, rotation, speeds, and travel directions. • Evaluate hazards to determine consequences resulting from collision, upset, or dropping the load. ■ Determine how to rig the load using good rigging practices. Consult rigging handbooks as necessary to ensure proper rigging techniques are used for the lift. ■ Ensure that the attachment points and load can withstand the forces created by the rigging gear attachment. ■ Select equipment and rigging based on: the type, category of lift, and minimum capacity of lifting equipment (hoist, crane, slings, lifting fixture, etc); and on the identified load, task, and hazards. Ensure that sling angles are considered when determining forces on rigging equipment and the load. 4.1.1 Ordinary Lifts Ordinary lifts can range from simple to very complex and can be planned and communicated verbally or documented as a written lift plan or procedure. ■ Verbal planning can be adequate for some ordinary lifts provided that appropriate controls are established to ensure that the lift requirements are determined, communicated, understood, and carried out. Examples include such controls as o Holding pre-lift meetings to discuss the rigging and lift requirements o Providing continuous qualified supervisor, engineering, or experienced operator supervision during the setup and/or during lift o Limiting equipment use to operators who are specifically qualified. ■ Documented lift plans/procedures provide a record of the planning process an effective communication tool to convey lift requirements and work authorization to workers. All ordinary lift plans shall be documented using a Hoisting and Rigging lift plan and Ordinary Lifts work sheet. This documentation shall be developed on site prior to any lifting. ■ A combination of minimal documentation, such as a rigging plan &/or lift work sheet, and verbal instructions to convey lift requirements, may be sufficient to plan, convey, and control certain lifts. 61 4.1.2 Critical Lifts For all critical lifts, a written pre-job plan or procedure (Critical Lift Plan) shall be prepared by Strong's Crane Service and accepted by Praxair. 4.2 Preparing and Testing • For ordinary lifts, assign a designated leader; for critical lifts, assign a person-in- charge (PIC). ■ Verify that all equipment, fixtures, and accessories are operative, up-to-date on required periodic inspections and in good condition before the operation begins. ■ Perform all equipment pre-use inspections. ■ Perform a test lift using similar or dummy loads (optional). ■ Prepare the area where the load is being moved to (for example, clear the area, ensure that dunnage is in place). ■ Survey the lift site for hazardous or unsafe conditions; clear lift path of obstructions 4.3 Personnel ■ Ensure that all personnel are trained on the types of equipment they will be using. ■ Ensure that all personnel fully understand the requirements of the lift and their role in the operation. 4.4 Performing the Lift • Praxair "Work Permit" program will be used for all lifts. ■ Keep a copy of the plan or procedure (as required) at the work site and follow the plan. ■ Ensure all personnel involved in the lift understand the plan. ■ Provide the task qualified supervision specified in the planning process. ■ Vacate all non-essential personnel from the building or adjacent area (optional). ■ Ensure a signalman is assigned, if required. ■ Identify the crane operator. • Follow specific instructions/procedures for attachment of the rigging gear to the load. Use proper rigging techniques. Examples include padding sharp corners, orientation of chocker hitches for "rolls", orientation of hooks, no binding of hoist rings, etc. ■ Slowly raise the crane to take the slack out of the rigging without actually lifting the item. Allow the rigging gear to settle into place, checking for twists and binding. Make sure that padding has remained in place and all slings are protected from sharp edges. Begin to raise the item to verify balance and check the braking system by watching that the load does not sink. If load is not balanced, lower the load and adjust. Repeat as necessary until the load is evenly balanced. • Stop the job when any potentially unsafe condition is recognized 62 5. Subcontractor Safety 5.1 Strongs Crane Service Crane & Rigging Safety 1. Rated load capacities,recommended operating speeds and all hazard warnings signs recommended by manufacturer will be conspicuously posted on all equipment and left unaltered. 2. All employees will adhere to and operate any of the Company equipment in accordance of applicable government laws and manufactures recommendations. 3. Except where electrical distribution and transmission lines have been de-energized and grounded,or where insulating barriers(not a part of the machinery in use)have been erected to prevent physical contact with the lines,no part of a crane or its load will be operated within 10 feet of a line rated 50KV or below.For lines rated greater than 50 KV,an additional 4 inches per each 1 KV over 50 KV is required. If any doubts or questions as to the strength of the electrical power, contact the proper energy company and have them do a site visit and make recommendations. 4. A fully charged and inspected fire extinguisher will be kept in the cab of the cranes at all times. 5. Cranes will only be operated by properly licensed personnel and have been approved by management. 6. Cranes will be inspected by operator before each use.Logs of crane inspections must be properly maintained in accordance with Company policy. 7. Where practical and as deemed necessary,tag lines will be used when hoisting a load. 8. The weight of each load shall be determined prior to lift to ensure operating crane within its rated lift capacity. 9. Suspended loads shall not be hoisted over any person at any time. 10. Employees shall not perform any type of work under a suspended load. 11. Safety latches are required on all crane hooks. 12. Standard crane signals shall be used by Company employees while signaling crane. If signals are done by the client, operator shall make sure person signaling crane knows and understands proper crane signals. 13. Sharp edges of material being lifted shall be protected from slings so to prevent damage to rigging equipment. 14. Proper use of slings and rigging equipment per manufactures recommendations will be used at all times.Client may choose to require additional rigging safety criteria.Company employees will adhere to any specific safety regulation as requested by client. 15. Slings and rigging equipment will be properly inspected by employee prior to use.Defective rigging will be removed from service immediately and disposed of properly. 16. JSA will be done if we are in charge of the load(meaning doing the lift plan)to ensure all personnel involved with the lift are informed. 17. All company crane operators will be required to pass a DOT physical required by the state of Montana to carry a license and operate company equipment. Physicals will be done on a every other year basis and will include but not limited to: vision of at least 20/30 Snellen in one eye and 20/50 in the other eye with or without glasses,have proper depth perception,be able to distinguish between red,yellow and green,hearing with or without hearing aids adequate for specific operations and no history of disabling medical condition which may be sufficient reason for disqualification. 18. Additional periodic inspections will be performed by Company employees.On a quarterly basis,all rigging will be inspected and tagged with the Company Inspection color codes. 6. Working at Elevated Heights/ Fall Protection During the rigging, placing and securing of mechanical equipment for this aspect of the project, personal fall arrest system shall be utilized to protect workers any time work is 6 feet (1.8 meters) or more above grade and or a lower working surface. 63 6.1 Identifying Fall Hazards: Effectively preventing falls requires identifying, evaluating and controlling the fall hazards most likely to cause accident/injuries. Identifying job site fall hazards begins by analyzing construction operations requiring elevated work. The next step involves defining each elevated work task required to perform the construction operation. The final step involves identifying the specific fall hazards, which occur during each work task as well as while accessing to and egressing from the work. Job Safety Analysis (JSA's) shall be conducted prior to the task. All individuals that will be involved with the task shall be part of a safety meeting reviewing the JSA which shall cover; the potential hazards and the means by which the hazards shall be controlled or eliminated. 6.2 Elimination of Fall Hazards: The elimination of fall hazards will be the first and is the best line of defense against falls. This task requires careful assessment of the workplace and the work itself. Pre-construction consideration of the work and the site will be performed. This will lead to the elimination of many fall hazards and will enhance productivity. This process enables Swank Enterprises to design safety directly to the work process and not simply try to add safety as an afterthought. 6.3 Personal Fall Arrest Systems: A personal fall arrest system includes the proper anchorage, body support and connecting means interconnected and rigged to arrest a free fall. The primary function of a fall arrest system is to minimize the consequence of a fall rather than preventing its occurrence. The use of fall arrest equipment should be recognized as a means of minimizing injuries sustained from a fall. It does not prevent the fall. Components of a fall arrest system: The purpose of a fall arrest system is two fold: 1)to stop the fall,and 2)to distribute the impact energy experienced during fall arrest. Fall arrest systems properly installed and used, can prevent or minimize possible injury. The three basic components of a fall arrest system are: 7. Anchorage 8. Body Support 9. Connecting Devices A fall arrest system requires identifying the proper anchorage,wearing the appropriate body support, and using a connecting devise capable of attaching the worker to the anchorage. This system is designed to control a free fall and minimize injury. The key to any fall arrest system is selecting the proper fall arrest equipment and engineering a system capable of protecting the employees in the event of a fall. A critical factor in the design of any fall arrest system is ensuring that all components are compatible. Selecting proper equipment: A variety of fall arrest equipment is available to establish an effective fall arrest system. This equipment includes the use of full body harnesses, lanyards, lifelines,retractable devises,rope grabs, safety nets and associated hardware. The various components connected together make up a fall arrest system. Establishing an effective fall arrest system begins with selecting the proper fall arrest equipment to protect the employee in the event of a fall. Selecting the proper equipment should be based on the following: ■ The task being performed ■ Requirements for worker mobility 64 ■ The number of employees requiring protection ■ The distance of a potential fall The proper selection and purchase of safety equipment does not constitute a fall protection program. This is only one step. A complete, effective program ensures that: 1)appropriate anchorage points are established;2)proper inspection and maintenance procedures are enforced; and 3)workers are trained and supervised in the proper use and application of all equipment. Fall Protection is required when: -a working surface with an unprotected edge is 6' or more above a lower level. -work is being done from an extendable boom man-lift, platform man lift or utility basket in compliance with Praxair tie-off requirements. 65 SWANK ENTERPRISES/General Contractors SITE SPECIFIC Scaffold Safety & Erection Plan (Addendum to Site Specific Safety Plan) N-85 PLANT /SMR ADDITION PROJECT REC Silicon 119140 Rick Jones Way ►� Silver Bow, MT 59750 t� .1ni 66 Table of contents Tableof Contents..........................................................................................................2 1 General Requirements.................................................................................................3 2 Tubular Welded Frame Scaffolds...................................................................................2-3 3 Planking....................................................................................................................3 4 Mobile Scaffolding......................................................................................................3 Scaffold Inspection Check List 67 SCAFFOLDING 1 General Requirements: CFR 1926, 450/451/452, NOV 1996 1.

GENERAL SAFETY RESPONSIBILITIES It is Swank Enterprises responsibility to initiate and maintain an accident prevention program. The program will require capable, responsible supervisors to make regular inspections of all construction activities and report violations of safety procedures and safe practices to the Swank Enterprises Safety Director, David Stewart. Casey Austin, will be the Project Superintendent and will make safety a part of the day-to-day routine. CORRECTING UNSAFE ACTS No worker is so good that they or their supervisor can afford to ignore unsafe work practices. Ignoring unsafe work practices will result in injury to the worker or growth of the belief that safety is unimportant. When a worker is observed working in an unsafe manner, he or she will be corrected immediately. Correction will not be postponed. 3 PRE-JOB MEETINGS Swank Enterprises and all the subcontractors will meet to discuss accident prevention before the job starts. Job layouts, plans, and schedules will be studied to determine the requirements of the project. The safety needs of equipment, personnel and other resources will be planned for and implemented at this time. START OF JOB MEETING Casey Austin and David Stewart will review initial planning, discuss any condition changes, and revise the Safety Plan as needed. Safety policy and guidelines applicable to the work will be reviewed, and all subcontractors will be notified as to the specific requirements needed to perform their particular job tasks. Any revision of the Safety Plan will be reviewed and approved by David Stewart. STAFF MEETINGS Safety will be addressed during weekly project meetings conducted by Casey Austin. Safety problems will be reviewed and corrective action initiated by the responsible supervisor. The meeting will be recorded and a copy retained on site. Safety meetings may be conducted in conjunction with other subject meetings provided the safety section is separate to the other subjects and so identified in the minutes. SUPERVISORY SAFETY MEETING Each trade is responsible for conducting a weekly meeting with field supervisors/foremen to review and correct safety problems. Any new work activities must be reviewed and potential hazards addressed. This meeting may be held in conjunction with other meetings provided the safety section is separated in the minutes. CRAFT SAFETY MEETING Foremen will conduct toolbox safety meetings with their crews at least once a week. Safety topics will be discussed. A log of discussion topics and attendance rolls will be maintained and a copy will be provided to Casey Austin monthly. SUBCONTRACTORS SAFETY MEETING A Subcontractor Safety Meeting will be scheduled prior to the start of construction. Compliance with OSHA requirements will be discussed and reporting procedures established. Safety issues will be addressed at all work coordination meetings. GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Every effort will be made to insure the safety of workers. No employee will be required or knowingly permitted to work in an unsafe work environment except for the purpose of ,1 correcting the unsafe area, and then only after proper precautions have been taken to protect the employee while performing such work. Prior to the start of work, Swank Enterprises, subcontractors, management and staff will perform a survey of the work site to determine hazards to employees and safeguards necessary to execute the work in a safe manner. LOSS PREVENTION PROGRAM It is the policy of Swank Enterprises to conduct all operations in a manner that includes proper consideration for safety, health, fire prevention and control of property damage. This conduct includes compliance with Federal, State and Local safety and health legislation. All managers and supervisors are expected to provide the leadership necessary to accomplish this goal. All employees are expected to respect established rules and procedures and to perform their jobs in a safe manner. SAFETY OFFICER/SAFETY DIRECTOR/PROJECT MANAGEMENT The Project Superintendent, Casey Austin, in cooperation with the Safety Director, David Stewart and Project Manager, Bob Meinhardt has the final responsibility for the project safety and loss prevention program. Safety responsibilities include: • Program implementation • Site review and walk around inspections • Craft and area safety evaluations SUPERINTENDENT Project Superintendent, Casey Austin, and subcontractor supervisors are accountable to the Safety Director and the Project Manager and are responsible for safety performance in their assigned areas or disciplines. Safety responsibilities include but are not limited to: • Ensuring the safety program is established and maintained on the project. • Assuring that line supervisory and subcontractor s have a clear understanding of individual employee safety responsibilities and duties. • Conducting safety walk-throughs (audits) and project reviews. • Reviewing project safety performance. • Conducting accident investigations, according to established procedures. • Reviewing and evaluating the safety performance of each supervisor and providing guidance and safety training where needed. • Determining safety code requirements and providing the necessary facilities to meet these needs. • Communicating safety information to the field supervisory personnel. • Conducting safety inspections including checking the condition of temporary facilities. 5 CRAFT GENERAL FOREMEN Craft foremen are responsible for the safety of their crews, including the condition of their assigned work area and the operation of equipment. Additional responsibilities include: • Enforcing safety rules and monitoring the results of the safety program. Implementing any special control procedures established by the Swank Enterprises and or the Barrett Hospital. • Inspecting work areas to detect hazards and where necessary, implementing corrective action. • Conducting random inspections of company owned equipment and tools assigned to the project. • Inspecting scaffolding and equipment. • Maintaining records. Records relative to any and all safety, health and environmental audits, meetings, disciplinary actions, accidents and spill investigations will be kept for a period of 1 year, and may be reviewed or made available for audit in our files located at 750 West Reserve Drive, Kalispell, Montana. EMPLOYEES An effective safety program is dependent on employee recognition of the need for active participation in and full compliance with Swank Enterprises Safety Program, Barrett Hospital Safety Program, OSHA Standards and all state and local laws and regulations. 6 SECTION TWO INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE Swank Enterprises recognizes that engineering, work practice and administrative controls are the primary means of reducing employee exposure to occupational hazards. Engineering controls minimize employee exposure by either reducing or removing the hazard at the source or by isolating the worker from the hazard. Engineering controls include eliminating toxic chemicals and replacing harmful toxic materials with less hazardous ones, enclosing work processes or confining work operations, and installing general and local ventilation systems. Work practice controls alter the manner in which a task is performed. Some fundamental and easily implemented work practice controls include (1) following proper procedures that minimize exposure while operating production and control equipment; (2) inspecting and maintaining processes and control equipment on a regular basis; (3) implementing good house-keeping procedures; (4) providing good supervision and (5) mandating that eating, drinking, smoking, chewing tobacco or gum, and applying cosmetics are regulated and prohibited in regulated areas. Administrative controls include controlling employee's exposure to hazards by scheduling production and workers' tasks, or both, in ways that minimize exposure levels. When effective work practices and/or engineering controls are not feasible to achieve the permissible exposure limit, or while such controls are being instituted, and in emergencies, appropriate personal protective equipment must be used. In addition, gloves, safety goggles, hard hats, safety shoes and Level D protective clothing will be required. To be effective, personal protective equipment must be individually selected, properly fitted and periodically refitted. This equipment must be conscientiously and properly worn, regularly maintained and replaced as needed. 7 SECTION THREE SAFETY SAFETY PROGRAMS As the prime contractor on the site, it is Swank Enterprises responsibility to initiate and maintain a site-specific safety and health program. This program will require a capable and responsible supervisor to make regular inspections of all construction activities and report violations of safety procedures and safe practices to the Safety Director and Project Manager. All project personnel must make safety a part of their day-to-day responsibility. Considering all of the diverse trades that will be on this project, Swank Enterprises will incorporate all of the subcontractor's safety plans into a total safety umbrella. Any and all safety programs provisions and policies will be considered as part of the site safety program and all participating trades will abide by those criteria when working in conjunction with or in the proximity to other trades. For the Barrett Hospital Building Project, Swank Enterprises will have Casey Austin oversee the site safety and will be heading the on-site safety team. The safety team will consist of Swank Enterprises, Swank Enterprises foreman and the supervisors from the other major subcontractors. Casey Austin will coordinate all job tasks and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) with the subcontractors. NO UNSAFE WORK PRACTICES OR BEHAVIOR WILL BE TOLERATED ON THIS PROTECT. Copies of Swank Enterprises Company Safety Program will be on site along with this Site- Specific Safety Plan. Comprehensive documentation of all safety issues will be available for review by the Barrett Hospital upon request. RECORD KEEPING The Barrett Hospital may require specific forms and procedures for reporting job-site accidents, which will be issued at the time the project begins. The forms and reports listed in this section are used on all Swank Enterprises job sites for accident documentation. First Report of Injury and Occupational Disease (Mt. Dept. of Labor and Industry). This report shall be submitted on every work injury requiring Is' aid or the onset of a suspected occupational illness. This report will be distributed as follows: •3 One copy to the injured employee. •S One copy to David Stewart, Swank Enterprises Safety Director. ❖ One copy to workers compensation insurer. ❖ One copy to remain on site. An accident log will be kept up to date and be located on the construction site and or in the Kalispell office of Swank Enterprises. Superintendent Incident/Accident Report Should an incident or accident occur, Casey Austin shall thoroughly and immediately investigate every accident requiring follow up care or treatment by a physician. The initial investigation results shall be recorded on the s Incident/Accident Report. The information required on this form is important to Swank Enterprises accident prevention program. To 8 prevent accidents, their causes must be determined and correct to avert any future occurrences. Swank Enterprises prepares and maintains records in accordance to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) of occupational injuries and illnesses. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES Swank Enterprises will develop, if necessary, a site-specific emergency response plan as required to manage any hazardous substances. Swank Enterprises along with all subcontractors and suppliers will take all measures necessary to protect employees against any hazards that might exist or occur in the performance of the work and to prevent injury or damage to any person or property. Swank Enterprises will fully advise all of its employees, subcontractors and any others working for them on this site of the risks at the site and to ensure that such employees, subcontractors and others are properly trained as to precautions applicable to such risks. HAZARDOUS WASTE OPERATIONS Swank Enterprises and all of the subcontractors retained for this project shall be responsible for implementing and ensuring compliance with all applicable health, safety and worker protection requirements under federal, state or local laws or regulations including, without limitation, to applicable requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120, 40 CFR Part 3 00.15 0 and applicable provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and state occupational safety and health laws. Such requirements including, without limitation, requirements pertaining to training, medical surveillance, monitoring and engineering controls, work practices and personal protective equipment for employees protection, for their respective employee's.

Protective equipment, including personal protective equipment for eyes, face, head and extremities, protective clothing, respiratory devices, and protective shields and barriers, shall be provided, used and maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition. All personal protective equipment will conform to OSHA, ANSI and NOISH standards. At a minimum, all personnel on the job site will comply with Level D personal protection equipment as outlined in the HAZWOPER Standard and by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Level D protection is acceptable where special respiratory or skin protection is not required. Level D protection is primarily work clothing, consisting of: ❖ Leather or chemical resistant boots Hard hat Safety glasses ❖ Gloves (optional) ❖ Long pants ❖ Sleeved work shirt Swank Enterprises requires all employees and all subcontractors to comply with a standard dress code, which includes work boots, shirts with sleeves, long pants and hardhat. No substantial rips or tears in clothing are allowed and work clothes will not be excessively baggy or loose fitting. Eye protection is mandatory and will be worn at all times. The level of protection will meet the requirements of 29 CFR 1926.102. Eye protection for visitors can be attainted at the job site construction trailer. The levels of personal protection required for this project is dependent on the specific job task being performed. At a minimum, the personal protective equipment for each task will meet the standards of 29 CFR 1926. A complete hazard assessment and personal protective equipment guideline is detailed in Swank Enterprises Safety Program. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT ANALYSIS The Personal Protective Equipment Analysis activity will involve both the production level employees as well as their immediate supervisors. The supervisor is to act as the leader in the process, giving direction to the production employees when necessary. The production employees will utilize their knowledge gained from their work experience to identify hazards they have encountered. The first step in the process is for the employees to break down their job into all the tasks that make up their job. For assembly line workers, this may involve only two or three tasks performed during a given workday. For maintenance and service workers, the list of tasks could be quite long. 15 A task is a sequence of steps or activities that a person engages in to perform a work assignment. The Personal Protective Equipment Analysis does not focus on each individual step or activity, but the task as a whole. Each task should be listed on the Job Task Listing. The quality of the Personal Protective Equipment Analysis is going to be directly related to the individuals involved with the process. It is recommended that as many of the production personnel be involved as possible so that the greatest benefit can be derived. If time is limited, consideration should be given to selecting two or three workers who would contribute the most to the process. Some factors in this consideration are experience at the job, a very positive attitude toward the work and the employer, a positive attitude toward employee safety, and their verbal communication skills. You may also want to include a relatively new employee (on the job six months or more) for their insights. They may have encountered some hazards that the more experienced employee has avoided through improved job technique. ANALYZING THE TASK Once the job has been broken down into individual tasks, the employees and supervisor should work to identify all possible injury hazards. This will involve hazards such as cut hands, foreign objects in eyes, muscle strains from lifting, amputations when operating machinery, etc. Try to identify all hazards no matter how insignificant they may first appear. Once all of the tasks are listed, then the employees will identify the different injury hazards associated with the task. It is suggested that the employees take at least one week to perform this process. As they perform their job, they will be exposed to the hazards or they might remember "near miss" incidents that can be included in the analysis. Once the hazards are identified, first determine if they can be eliminated or controlled by some means other than personal protective equipment. If this is not feasible or possible, then list the protective equipment needed. 16 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT ANALYSIS WORKSHEET Department: Job: Date: Participants: EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS TASK HAZARDS 17 SECTION SIX SAFETY SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS Planned inspections and surveys allow the superintendent to focus on one area for a definite period. INSPECTIONS An inspection is a detailed examination of a particular machine, tool, etc. Its purpose is to detect the unsafe condition or unsatisfactory operating characteristics of equipment before accidents occur. Procedures should be developed to ensure employees inspect equipment before use. Inspections of items used in hazardous situations, or which can present hazards themselves, should be recorded. The Project superintendent should periodically look at the tools, machinery or other equipment used in the area to see that they are in a safe, usable condition. SURVEYS A survey is a planned examination of the total operation or process. It addresses unsafe physical conditions and seeks to discover unsafe operating methods and work habits as well. Checklists can be used to identify the kind of items that must be observed. These lists are not to be used as a strict guideline, but are to assist surveyors in looking at critical items that have known hazards or have caused accidents before. A simple checklist may be found at the end of this section. This guide should be tailored to the operation. Do not hesitate to look beyond the checklist. Many hazards will not be included in the guide. EMPLOYEE PARTICIPATION Employees are an excellent source of information. It is critical to include them in hazard identification and seek their assistance in developing recommendations for conditions that pose potential accidents. Employees are encouraged to report hazards through their and/or their foreman. When employees participate in the survey/inspection process, it is essential that some pre-survey training is given. Explain what to look for, how to record observations, and how to make corrective suggestions. SCHEDULING Various factors affect scheduling of surveys/inspections, but one fact stands out surveys/inspections should be scheduled regularly. In many work tasks, surveys are scheduled monthly. In some operations, this may not be feasible. Each individual operation should evaluate their own frequency of surveys/inspections by reviewing accident rates and severity. 18 Following are other times when interim surveys are made: 1. After a serious accident. 2. When a series of accidents or incidents occur. 3. When major changes are made in layout, equipment, processes or materials. 4. When the supervisor recognizes that work conditions have deteriorated. THE TOTAL PICTURE Superintendents are concerned with all of the factors in an operation that affects safety. They must review the use of tools, machines, other equipment and the environment. UNSAFE PRACTICES As mentioned previously, unsafe conditions are usually the end result of unsafe practices. Look for: 1. Poor housekeeping. 2. Inadequate maintenance. 3. Improper use of equipment. 4. Poor material handling procedures. UNSAFE ACTS 1. Erratic behaviors, lack of attention. 2. Horseplay. 3. Not wearing protective equipment. 4. Running 5. Smoking in restricted areas. 6. Taking chances or not following procedures (i.e. shortcuts). 7. Use of drugs/alcohol. CORRECTIVE ACTION AND FOLLOW-UP The intent of inspections and surveys is to identify unsafe acts and conditions so they can be corrected. This entire effort is wasted if the corrections are not made. Follow up on the corrections. Review the item or area to ensure the correction is made. The supervisor is responsible for ensuring a safe workplace exists and corrective actions are made. 19 SECTION SEVEN EMERGENCY PROCEDURES GENERAL This section covers the procedures to follow in the event of an emergency at this project work site. These guidelines provide rules and procedures in the event of emergency conditions like fires, injured workers, excavation failures, and exposure to hazardous or unknown materials. They should be supplemented with good judgment. In the event of an emergency, as at all other times, the paramount consideration should be the safety of employees and the public. EVACUATION In the event the jobsite must be evacuated, Casey Austin of Swank Enterprises will notify all of Swank Enterprises employees and the supervisors of every subcontractor on the site. The subcontractor supervisors will be responsible for gathering their employees and meeting at the designated assembly area. The Project Superintendent will then notify the Barrett Hospital, Bob Meinhardt and David Stewart of Swank Enterprises of the situation and of the actions, which have been taken. The job-site construction office area will be used as an assembly area unless employees are specifically informed otherwise. Once the personnel have been assembled, a head count will be taken of ALL project personnel. Then a decision will be made whether to further evacuate or to stay at the assembly point. All personnel will stay together until the Casey Austin gives an all clear. EMERGENCY RESPONSE All personnel working on the site will be required to be familiar with the emergency response procedures. A list of employees with first aid, fire protection, and or other emergency response background shall be established and maintained to assist or augment the local Emergency Response Agencies. Given the nature of the emergency, primary consideration will be given to the safety of the employees and people on site. If the situation allows, first aid will be administered to any injured individual and the severity of the injury will be accessed and appropriate action will be executed. In case of fire, the first response will be to notify the local fire department. If the nature of the fire allows for an on site response, then the site fire fighting equipment will be utilized on a first response basis. If the fire is developed beyond first response degree, then site evacuation procedures will be implemented. In cases requiring rescue, the Project Superintendent will render an assessment of the needed equipment, the appropriate local emergency response department will be notified and rescue operations will commence. Emergencies involving hazardous materials will be handled under the guidelines of Swank Enterprises Hazard Communication Program. 20 All local emergency response providers; hospital, fire department, poison control, and EMT telephone numbers will be posted in the job site construction office trailer. A map outlining the evacuation route out of the job site and the route to the local hospital will also be posted in the job site trailer. Documentation of any accident and or injury will be on file in the job site office trailer and copies will be available to the Barrett Hospital. 21 SECTION EIGHT SANITATION TOILETS Toilet facilities will be provided on site. Toilets will be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition with an adequate supply of toilet paper and holders for all stalls. Routine inspection and maintenance will be made for all toilet facilities. DRINKING WATER An adequate supply of potable water sill be provided to all employees and will be located in the office trailer and throughout the construction site in coolers. Portable containers will be used to dispense drinking water. These containers will be kept tightly closed, equipped with one-use drinking cups, labeled as "DRINKING WATER" and will be maintained in a clean and sanitary condition. The use of common cups, glasses or mugs is prohibited. Water shall not be dipped from the container and drinking directly from the container is prohibited. The area around the drinking containers will be kept in a clean and sanitary condition, with trash receptacles provided at each container location. TRASH AND WASTE Trash containers will be located throughout the project. All trash and waste will be disposed of in the containers or into large debris boxes on site. The containers will be collected and empty at lease once a week or as needed. No trash or waste products shall be left in work areas or on the site. 22 SECTION NINE SUBCONTRACTOR SAFETY AND HEALTH CRITERIA Swank Enterprises bases it selection of subcontractors on two simple yet very critical factors: I. Can the subcontractor complete the work meeting or exceeding our quality control standards? 2. What safety programs does the subcontractor have in place and what is their safety record? Whether a subcontractor can complete the work and meet Swank Enterprises quality standards is determined by reviewing their resume, their experience, their resources and contacting previous parties for which work has been performed. Through experience and the development of strong working relationships, Swank Enterprises has been able to identify the subcontractors that meet our standards. From a safety standpoint, Swank Enterprises requires all subcontractors to complete a safety questionnaire which details their safety rating (Experience Modification Rate), the safety programs that are in place, their oversight protocols, and their inspection processes. The Project Manager, the Project Superintendent and the Safety Director review this information. From this information and the companies reputation in the industry is the bases on if the contractor meets our safety standards. Regulatory and policy compliance is monitored and controlled daily on site by our project , our project engineer and by or field personnel. Any unsafe behavior or conditions noted are immediately addressed and corrected. All Swank Employees understand the importance and value in safety and all are considered a part of our safety compliance program. Site visits will be performed by the Project Manager, Bob Meinhardt, on a regular bases. These visits focus on safety as well as production. Any issues, which cannot be resolved in the field, are immediately directed to the management of the subcontractor. The company Safety Director, David Stewart, will make route unannounced visits to the jobsite. He will monitor the performance of the Project Superintendent and subcontractors for compliance and proper procedure. All subcontractors are require to attend the weekly safety meetings and to review all new job tasks prior to commencement. Further, all subcontractors are obligated contractually to comply with all Swank Enterprises, Barrett Hospital, state and federal safety policies and regulations. All subcontractors on this project will have a written safety plan on site in the Swank Enterprises job trailer. Each plan will address general safety and site specific safety for that particular trade. 23 NPDES IA UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON,DC 20460 FORME PA NOTICE OF INTENT(NOI)FOR STORMWATER DISCHARGES Form Approved. 3510-9 " ASSOCIATED WITH CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY UNDER AN OMB Nos.2040-0004 NPDES GENERAL PERMIT Submission of this Notice of Intent(NOI)constitutes notice that the operator identified in Section II of this form requests authorization to discharge pursuant to the NPDES Construction General Permit(CGP)permit number identified in Section I of this form.Submission of this NOI also constitutes notice that the operator identified in Section II of this form meets the eligibility requirements of Parts 1.1 and 1.2 of the CGP for the project identified in Section III of this form.Permit coverage is required prior to commencement of construction activity until you are eligible to terminate coverage as detailed in Part 8 of the CGP.To obtain authorization,you must submit a complete and accurate NOI form.Discharges are not authorized if your NOI is incomplete or inaccurate or if you were never eligible for permit coverage.

Montana has a wealth of regional sustainable building materials, recycled content is a straightforward matter to get into the design, but we face some challenges in other Credit categories. It is a straightforward matter to understand these decisions early in the design process rather than a difficult challenge of "chasing points" toward the end of Construction.

We have built for most of the major cities in Montana. B. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER - INSTITUTIONAL In addition to our large building experience in Education and Medical projects noted in Section 1a, we have built many projects for municipalities, particularly water and wastewater treatment plants. Additionally, we have built the Helena Area Transit Service station, the new fire stations for Evergreen and Kalispell. As these projects are most closely related to the scope of this work, we are pleased to list these projects as references: Helena Area Transit Service Yellowstone Justice Center Gery Carpenter—406-447-8000 Peter Galindo —307-344-2429 IMF Kalispell Fire Station 61 Evergreen Fire Station 81 Chief Dave Dedman —406-758-7760 Chief Craig Williams—406-752-4636 �y C. STAGING AND MATERIALS HANDLING This project, designed to be accessible and convenient to people in downtown Bozeman will by its very nature quite easily inconvenience the same public during construction. To mitigate that inconvenience, the following steps must be taken: Materials Deliveries A $20 Million project will require several hundred truckloads of materials and equipment; first and foremost, we will coordinate with the City of Bozeman to gain their best understanding of potential strategies. Many deliveries will require upwards of an hour each while concrete, steel, wood products, drywall, cabinets, windows, door frames, doors, carpeting, ceiling tiles, mechanical SE !? q 91WRIN i 11=I equipment, and electrical switchgear are unloaded. Experience shows we must provide an area to get the trucks off the street and into the storage/staging area. Identifying truck routes and communicating them to suppliers, and having adequate truck parking and unloading space on site will help alleviate traffic issues. We must also insist trucks are received during the least busy time of day. Morning hours have the least amount of general public on the streets, and late afternoons have the most. Our extensive experience in building in congested areas has taught us that while people don't really mind inconveniences if they are forewarned; they get absolutely irate if these inconveniences are a surprise to them. For this reason, proactive planning and courteous prior updates go a long way toward easing peoples' concerns about disruptions in their busy workdays. Material Staging Material storage yards will be impeccably organized and secure. Just-in-time delivery of materials will ensure only immediately, ready-to-install items are moved in to the storage areas, greatly reducing the amount of materials stored. Noise Equal to material deliveries, noise is a factor that greatly inconveniences the business community and general public. We will work closely with the Design team to select systems with installation techniques that minimize noise. Where noisy activities are unavoidable, we will schedule them at times that will have the least impact on the business community. People tend to be most productive in the morning hours, and least productive immediately after lunch and the last hour of the day. Safety s VIL Again, as the project will inevitably occupy every inch of the lot, we will install safety fencing and barricades to segregate the public from deep excavations and all work processes. We will install viewing areas so people can see what is going on from a safe location, and make every effort to keep distracting activities shielded from the public's view. D. LEED CERTIFIED PROJECTS As noted in Section 4, we have extensive LEED certified building experience.
