The Basics:

• All experiment personnel are required to have radiation badges in their possession when inside the accelerator fence as per CEBAF's beam containment policy. All entries into the Hall during an experiment require the two man rule be obeyed. In addition, all shift personnel must be trained on the safety procedures to be followed for access to the hall and its close-up prior to beam delivery.
• Do not bring any radioactive sources onto the site without first getting permission from the EH&S Section.
• If it becomes necessary to perform work on any piece of equipment in the hall that may have received a significant dose of direct radiation, you must have it surveyed by a radiation monitor before your work can begin. This means that all work on beamline or target chamber equipm ent will involve a radiation survey.
• If it is necessary to remove any item from the hall after or during a running period, it should be surveyed first. All components must be surveyed and released by a radiation officer before they can be removed from the hall.
• Be sure to lock and tag equipment before maintaining it.
• Do not use or turn on any equipment which meets the hazard criteria in Appendix III, until it has been reviewed. Contact your Spokesperson or Liaison Physicist for assistance.
• Do not bring any chemicals on site without a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). Ensure that the safety warden gets a copy of the MSDS for all new chemicals.
• Use care in proper disposal of unused or waste chemicals. Don't throw them in the drain! Contact the safety warden or the Physics Division Environmental Officer if you are uncertain how to dispose of them.
• As a general rule, do not work in technical areas alone. If this is not possible, contact Operations fir st.
• Call Operations before making any controlled access.
• Physics division encourages the use of equipment from completed experiments, however this equipment is not necessarily ``free for the taking." Contact Physics division personnel such as the liaison physicist, safety warden or call the Physics Division Office before taking any equipment.
• Do not use machine shop tools or other power equipment unless you are properly trained or qualified.
• CEBAF scientists and Users are not permitted to operate fork lifts or cranes under any circumstances.
