Recommendation Action: Implement administrative controls to reduce the exposure to ergonomic stressors and thus reduce the cumulative dose to workers. Adjust monitors, keyboards and mouse into positions provided in Attachment (3). 2. Reproductive Hazards: Maintenance and Raids Shop personnel use chemicals (spray paints) that contain a reproductive hazard (toluene) and the Ordnance Test Facility personnel handle, clean, and issue weapons that use ammunition that contains a reproductive hazard (lead). Recommendation Action: Continue to use processes to minimize exposure to these chemicals. Individuals with specific questions concerning reproductive issue, as it relates to their work environment are encouraged to consult with the Occupational Physician at NHCQ or their own private physician. 3. Exposure Monitoring Plan (EMP): Not applicable for these shops 4. Hazard Communication: Personnel are aware of the hazards associated with their tasks and Material Safety Data Sheets were centrally located and readily accessible. 5. Medical Surveillance: Medical surveillance recommendation is listed below. Details of medical surveillance listed by shops are provided in attachment (4) a. Diver/Hyperbaric Worker (705) i 6. Design Reviews: To ensure that appropriate hazard control techniques are applied; it is essential that industrial hygienists and safety professionals actively participate in planning, design, construction and acceptance processes for both special projects and military construction projects. Reviewers shall consider, appropriately influence the design, and engineer safety and occupational health aspects into all facilities that are acquired for use by Navy personnel. In addition, we request that standard operating procedures (SOPs), purchasing transactions, and contracts relevant to industrial hygiene and occupational health be sent to the Industrial Hygiene Department for review. Notification: This report is a snapshot in time and reflects conditions and operations at the Command during the survey period. Changes in procedures, processes, or workloads may significantly alter personnel exposures and require more frequent

Given method of use (minimum contact) and rate of consumption (<1 pint/year), personal exposure to these solvents in excess of levels allowed in reference 29 CFR 1910.1000 is not expected. Recommendation: Personnel should wear the proper personal protective equipment when working with solvents to prevent exposure via skin absorption and eye contact. Testing laser (indoor) Non-ionizing radiation 3 - - - Acceptable safety glasses or safety goggles, single hearing protection PPE is adequate Finding: EOTF personnel perform quarterly testing of Class I, II, III a, and III b laser. The laser testing is done indoors in a secure room with an interlock system. This system will shut down the laser testing operation when the door to the room is opened. Warning lights and signs are posted outside the room to alert personnel when laser testing is occurring. Recommendation: It is the responsibility of the Command’s Laser System Safety Officer (LSSO) to determine which personnel should be enrolled in the Laser Radiation Medical Surveillance Program using the guidance established in references OPNAVINST 5100.23G and MCO 5104.1B. The requirements of the medical surveillance program are set forth in reference BUMEDINST 6470.23.
