8 <br /> >Z �, a ENVIRONMENTAL <br /> City of Decatur,IL � J SERVICES® <br /> Schedule of Work <br /> ADS will be available to start the survey within three weeks of having a signed agreement. Based on the <br /> number of miles, it is estimated that the field portion of the project will take 25 to 30 working days to <br /> complete.The leakage crew can usually cover approximately five(5)to seven (7)miles of pipe per day <br /> during the sounding phase,depending on weather and traffic conditions.The time needed to pinpoint <br /> leaks depends upon the number of leaks discovered and their level of difficulty.As previously discussed, <br /> we have found that two days of sounding the system should be followed by one day of resounding and <br /> correlating at each potential leak location.The leak survey will be conducted primarily during normal <br /> working hours with additional leak detection being conducted during late evening and/or early morning <br /> hours if necessary in areas of high traffic volume.The final report will be submitted within 30 days of the <br /> end of the field work. <br /> Formal Safety Program <br /> ADS has an integrated,comprehensive safety process that is led by <br /> a full time Safety Manager with over twenty-five years of ADS <br /> experience.The safety program encompasses training,audits, <br /> Field Service Safety Manual equipment and procedures necessary to meet federal,state and <br /> - local safety requirements.Training includes confined space entry <br /> certification,personal protective equipment, blood borne <br /> pathogens,gas meter operation, hazard communication,defensive <br /> driving,and first aid/CPR,and a comprehensive physical biannual <br /> examination.
