Gather Information
Gather Information
A successful job begins before the excavation. The first step in planning is reviewing information already
available about the job and jobsite.
Arrange for Traffic Control
If working near a road or other traffic area, contact local authorities about safety procedures and
regulations.
Prepare for Working Near Existing Utilities
If jobsite may contain electrical lines, wear protective boots and gloves meeting the following standards:
• Boots must have high tops and meet the electric hazard protection requirements of ASTM F2413 or
ASTM F1117 when tested at 18,000 volts. Tuck legs of pants completely inside boots.
• Gloves must have 17,000 AC maximum use voltage, according to ASTM specification D120.
If working around higher voltage, use gloves and boots with appropriately higher ratings.
Plan for Emergency Services
Have the telephone numbers for local emergency and medical facilities on hand. Check that you will have
access to a telephone.
