NO-GO ZONES

• NO GO ZONES are designated regions that apply to work near OVERHEAD or UNDERGROUND ASSETS. The term ‘NO GO ZONE’ is utilised in order to provide a definition for safety clearances surrounding both overhead and underground services. If the design envelope of the of the plant is able to encroach on this clearance in its working position, then the employer must obtain from the electricity company; or alternatively employers will be deemed to have gained permission if they have developed safe systems of work and they are working in accordance with these guidelines. If you cannot comply with the NO GO ZONE safety procedures the NO WORK should be undertaken without specific permission from the electricity company.

Underground Services

• Prior to the commencement of works, you must determine if your work practices are to interfere with undergrad assets. If so, underground assets are required to be identified and you are to determine if this work will encroach the NO GO ZONE clearances surrounding these services. If you are working with plant near an underground service and following the NO GO ZONE guidance material you may work no closer than: • 300mm for individuals and 500mm for plant equipment • Or 3000mm in the case of any assets registered under the pipeline act • Or any electrical cable with an in-service voltage greater than 66kv For principle asset requiring significant integrity of the material surrounding the set, greater clearance may be required — information regarding these clearances can be obtained with the initial asset location enquiry.

Emergency Procedures

• In an emergency, the first response should be the car and wellbeing of the injured persons as well as your own safety. The Biltar signage will have directions on what to do in an emergency. We suggest that you enter the local emergency medical numbers and the number of your site manager into your mobile phone. In an emergency remain calm and if calling the Emergency Services (000) be prepared to give them the following information: • Exact address of the incident • The telephone number you are calling from • The number of injured people • Is the injured person conscious? • Is the injured person breathing? • The type and extent of injuries • Stat if other emergency services are required • Answer further questions • Stay close to the scene until given permission by the Emergency Services to leave — do not disturb any evidence unless it iOS to minimalist harm or deal with the emergency itself • Do not alter the incident area
