5. EXECUTION OF BLASTING

5.1 On the day of the blasting activity, the CONTRACTOR's shot firer(s) will
obtain the needed explosive material and transport it to the WORK Site. The
CONTRACTOR's lead shot firer shall be in charge of all operations present
in the blasting area. He and the Company Representative shall ensure the
hot work permit is authorized prior to commencing WORK. Only then can
the unloading of the explosives from the truck take place. The unloading and
priming of explosives in the holes, as well as stemming, shall be performed
under the supervision of the CONTRACTOR's lead shot firer. The laying or
placing of delays and tying in of the shot shall be performed by the
CONTRACTOR's shot firer or one of his designated and qualified assistants.
The placement of covering material shall be supervised by the
CONTRACTOR's lead shot firer and completed to his and Company
Representative's satisfaction.

5.2 At the time, approximately fifteen (15) minutes prior to the shot, there shall
be one long siren signal. At this time, all personnel in the vicinity of the shot
must begin clearing out. At approximately five (5) minutes prior to the blast,
a series of long siren signals shall be given to warn all to stay clear. By this
time, CONTRACTOR shall have posted guards at a safe distance from the
shot with warning flags, and deny all except the CONTRACTOR's shot firer,
access to the blast area. One last warning will be sounded by a series of
short-siren signals when the CONTRACTOR's Shot Firer has assured
himself everyone is clear and the shot is ready for detonation. After the
detonation, an all-clear signal consisting of two (2) long signals using the
siren shall be sounded. This shall be given only when the CONTRACTOR's
lead shot firer has assured himself it is safe to return to the shot area.

5.3 Cancellation of Blast

Should the shot crew find it impossible to shoot for any reason, the
appropriate form, Cancellation of Blast AB-0020, must be executed and
acknowledged by the signature of appropriate project personnel and the
CONTRACTOR's lead shot firer.

external vendor or supplier delivery trucks (with the exception of
earth hauling trucks, trucks delivering concrete, and other
equipment listed in Paragraphs 2.1.1 and 2.1.2) bringing material to
the Job, Laydown, and Fabrication Sites (collectively, “Excluded
Equipment”) do not require installation or use of a PWAS or
RVCCCS.

2.2 Equipment Technical Requirements

2.2.1 All PWAS must reliably operate in the complete range of extremes
of temperature, humidity, dust, and vibration, and direct exposure to
sun and rain and other environmental factors which may be present
at the Job, Laydown, and Fabrication Sites.

2.2.2 The PWAS should be programmable to detect personnel located at


the rear of the equipment, to a distance of at least six (6) meters of
the equipment with the installed PWAS Sensor(s) and Alarm
Display(s), and activate an alarm notifying the equipment operator
of a hazard.

2.2.3 The PWAS detection range threshold adjustment shall be designed


to allow adjustment only by designated CONTRACTOR safety
personnel and not by individual equipment operators.

2.2.4 The equipment operator must be able to silence a PWAS audible


warning for a particular detection event. However, another detection
event occurring after the silenced warning should automatically
trigger another audible warning.

2.2.5 All PWAS equipment at a Job, Laydown, and Fabrication Sites


(Sensor(s) & Alarm Display(s)) shall be completely compatible and
interoperable.

2.2.6 PWAS may employ any suitable signaling method (for example,
infrared or radio frequency identification) which is robust and not
subject to interface from other equipment at or near the Job,

Laydown, and Fabrication Sites, and which does not interfere with
the operation of other equipment at the Job, Laydown, and
Fabrication Sites.

2.2.7 Any RVCCCS must provide:

2.2.7.1 The ability for the equipment operator to view the area
behind the equipment to a distance of at least ten (10)
meters.

2.2.7.2 A minimum of four color camera inputs to a color display


for the equipment operator which shall be of minimum 7”
diagonal screen size, with the capability of monitoring all
cameras simultaneously on the same display with
adequate resolution and color rendition to allow the easy
visual identification of hazards around the vehicle.

2.2.7.3 The ability to operate effectively in low light environments


(illumination greater than or equal to 5 foot-candles or 54
lux).

2.3 Operation and Maintenance Requirements

2.3.1 CONTRACTOR shall designate a Proximity Warning System


Coordinator within its safety organization who shall have
responsibility and authority to supervise and direct the procurement,
installation, training, use, maintenance, effectiveness, and
performance monitoring of the Proximity Warning System
Equipment. The Proximity Warning System Coordinator and any
other CONTRACTOR personnel responsible for installation,
training, maintenance, or performance monitoring shall receive
appropriate training from the Proximity Warning System Equipment
manufacturer(s) or their authorized agents.

2.3.2 CONTRACTOR shall establish a process to positively verify and


document that all Proximity Warning System Equipment installed on
earthmoving and construction equipment is operating correctly at
the beginning of each day.

2.3.3 CONTRACTOR shall ensure that for all equipment on the Job,
Laydown, and Fabrication Sites, the PWAS alert threshold detection
range shall be set to a distance of six (6) meters unless otherwise
determined by a CONTRACTOR risk assessment which shall be
approved by an authorized SAUDI ARAMCO Company
Representative.

2.3.4 CONTRACTOR shall ensure that proper maintenance of the


Proximity Warning System Equipment is performed according to the
specification of the manufacturer(s) to ensure that the equipment
operates correctly and effectively, with verification of such operation
to be certified and documented by the manufacturer(s) or their
authorized agent(s). Earthmoving and construction equipment or
personnel without correctly operating Proximity Warning System
Equipment shall not be permitted to access or perform work at the
Job, Laydown, and Fabrication Sites.

2.3.5 CONTRACTOR shall ensure that all equipment operators shall be


provided with training on the purpose, use, and maintenance of
PWAS and RVCCCS prior to operating any equipment with the
system installed, and the administration of such training shall be
documented in the project safety records.

2.4 Normal and Incident Trend Reporting and Investigation Requirements

The Proximity Warning System Coordinator shall conduct weekly, and


monthly trend reporting of any incidents, including “near misses,” that either
activate proximity alarms or should reasonably have activated such alarms
shall be investigated and such investigation shall document the status of
installation, use, operation, maintenance, and effectiveness of the Proximity
Warning System Equipment, including any data recorded by Data Logger
equipment if available.

3. NO RELEASE

Compliance with the requirements set forth herein regarding Proximity Warning
System Equipment shall not excuse CONTRACTOR for compliance with safety
requirements set forth in Schedule “D” of this Contract, or any other terms and
conditions of this Contract.
