INSPECTION

ACCESS TRACK SURFACE CONDITIONS - Surface Condition <br>Is bench safely accessible for water/service trucks (min 10m width)
ACCESS TRACK SURFACE CONDITIONS - Graded and be of a camber/cross fall in accordance to site standard allowing light and medium vehicles to access the area safely
ACCESS TRACK INTERACTIONS - Has the access track onto the bench been constructed to allow limited interaction with other operations? Use back roads where possible.
ACCESS CONTROLS - Have physical hard barriers been established for the bench and access only via designated entrance points?
ACCESS CONTROLS - Are there shovel cables or cable trees that run through the access or anywhere that the float may have to interact with or drills have to walk through/over?
ROADS/RAMPS - Where ramps exist, are they constructed no greater than 10% grade? Use device to confirm.
INTERSECTIONS - Are all intersections constructed as 'T' intersections providing 90 degree angle of approach? Intersection must be in compliance with DNM-CHL-0013 (checklist for intersection design and construction available on tempo).
DROP OFFS/OPEN EDGES - Have all drop-offs/open edges greater than 0.5 m been adequately bunded at the correct height? Ensure you consider risk to service trucks, MPU's, Water trucks if brakes were to fail on slopes. Ensure bunding correct height for the equipment that will come in after drilling process.
FACE/CREST BUNDING - Has bunding at the face been pushed to the safest limit (half the wheel height of the largest vehicle accessing the area) as close to the crest as possible and at correct height for equipment entering areas?)
GENERAL BUNDING - Does bunding contain large rocks that could roll down and land on blasting accessories?
DRAINAGE - Is adequate drainage on the bench in preparation for a rain event to prevent water pooling across the floor? (Please ensure the mine planning drainage plan is used in this discussion).
GEOTECHNICAL - Are all geotechnical hazards controlled by adequate bunding and exclusion zones are in place?
BENCH SURFACE CONDITIONS - Has bench been prepared to an acceptable standard (graded off excessive loose material, grader rills, rocks cleared and low spots identified)
PUMPS & PIPELINES - Have all pumps and pipelines been removed from pattern or relocated to an agreed area where potential damage to holes can be minimised? Include pipeline flow meter risk for flyrock. Ensure notifications are raised where required.
CABLES & TOWERS - Have all Cables been removed from pattern or relocated to an agreed area where potential damage to holes can be minimised? Ensure notifications are raised where required.
TECHNOLOGY & AH - Have all AH trailers and gates been removed from pattern or relocated to an agreed area where potential damage to holes can be minimised? Ensure notifications are raised where required.
INFRASTRUCTURE - Have all Infrastructure been removed from pattern or relocated to an agreed area where potential damage to holes can be minimised? Ensure notifications are raised where required.
DESIGN - Has design been completed and have limit pegs, tape and minestar limits been placed to provide clear instruction to execute works.
ENVIRONMENT - Has a permit to disturb been executed and do all operators understand the required controls. Keep permit to disturb in cab of disturbance vehicles on required patterns
LIMITS - Have bench limits been met, has survey checked area to ensure design limits have been achieved for next process
BENCH CONDITION: Does the bench contain rocks that may roll ankles on the bench in drill and blast walking.
The bench needs to be sheeted to remove this hazard?
DUST MANAGEMENT - Has floor been graded off or sheeted where high dust generation exists?
DUST MANAGEMENT - Has the sequencing of activities been done as to ensure that activities do not cause dust concerns for the next process. Has interactions with other areas been discussed surrounding dust management.
SPON COM - Is there a spon com risk in this pattern?
Gas Monitoring is required. Ensure all personnel involved with pattern have gas monitoring training.
CRIB HUT - Is there suitable location for crib hut with turn around room? Does further notifications to mine services need to occur or mine planning design need to occur.
FLOAT - Is there sufficient room to load and unload equipment with the float? Does further notifications to mine services need to occur or mine planning design need to occur.
FLOAT - Identify the float route to the pattern. Is the float route adequate and does it interact with any hazards. ie. Cable towers or cable routes
CABLE PLAN - Review the cable plan prior to drilling to ensure that there have been no changes in the cable path or position that may interact with the drill and blast area or the access to the areas (float access or drill/blast access to be thought about)
WATER - Is there water in front of the shot or around the shot that needs to be signed off by geotechnical team to fire into water or have assessment of blasting
Have you made contact with the mine planning/ geotechnical teams in regards to this water?
OTHER HAZARDS - Are there any other hazards not identified in the above sections that require additional controls?

RISK ASSESSMENTS & CONTROLS FOR NON-COMPLIANCE TO DRILL PREP STANDARD

Is there any non-compliance to the drill preparation standard as outlined in this inspection
Ensure all non-compliances to standard have suitable controls in the drill supervisor bench handover document. Document where controls have been listed or advised to CMW's working in the area.
No JSA required. Add comments if required.
Is there any equipment within the 200m equipment exclusion zone? Specify what equipment is within the zone during this inspection.
Is there any equipment that will remain within the 200m zone when blasting commences?
Complete appropriate risk assessment for equipment in zone. Most internal equipment can be signed off by asset owner on email. Higher risk internal equipment like Fuel farms and powerlines must have a JSA (EEM signature for powerlines & Infrastructure signature for fuel farms). External infrastructure must be risk assessed.
No Risk assessment required as assessed under this report
