Falling overboard; Slips, Trips and Falls; Pinch Points; Wind
exposure; poor dock/pier condition. Abrupt boat handling; bumping dock
too hard on approach; dangerous wave height and/or direction; insecure
ladders/brows.

personnel are safely ashore; watch for tripping and entanglement
hazards; ensure approved ladders are properly secured.
When wading from vessel to shore: Team must assess distance and
conditions as a group then come to a consensus decision to proceed,
Water must be no more than 24” deep, waves must be less than 1 foot.
Teams must proceed in close proximity to each other to render help to
one another if needed. PPE must be worn as to prevent all members from
getting wet. When wading, move feet in a sweeping motion to prevent
stepping on aquatic life or other underwater hazards. At no time will
feet be bare during wading. If work boots are removed, reef walkers,
diver boots, etc. must be used to protect feet.

Use spotters as appropriate
Hooking trailer to vehicle
*
Insure ball size is appropriate for hitch
*
Use spotter to back vehicle into position
*
Open coupler, place over ball (must completely cover ball), close
coupler device
*
Insert locking safety pin
*
Verify safety chains crossed and provide sufficient slack for
turns but not dragging
*
Conduct a Jack Test on the hitch – once trailer is hooked to
vehicle crank jack leg down until up force is placed on hitch and
ball and the hitch does not pop off the ball. Once verification is
done, jack stand all the way up to ensure proper ground clearance
while trailering.
Use proper lifting technique and lift from the end of the ramp to get

Remain a safe distance of 10 meters in each direction (cones set up)
from the auger when auger is running.
Keep safe distance until operator shuts down auger and gives the all
clear for investigation
If team decides that auger needs to go deeper, then team vacates the
10 m perimeter and process starts over
