SECTION 3 - MOBILIZATION, SET UP, AND DEMOBILIZATION

This section applies to mobilization and demobilization for the following types of site operations: air

knifing, air vacuuming, drilling, using geoprobes, and hand-augers. This section does not cover safety

related to site mobilization in passenger vehicles.

3.1 - Performing Pre-Mobilization Tasks

3.1.1 - Inspections and Maintenance

• It is important to ensure vehicles are road worthy (that is, that they have been properly maintained and

inspected) before using them on public roadways or project sites. Federal, state, and local laws require

that vehicles be properly maintained and safe to operate upon our highways. It is the responsibility of the

owner or operator to ensure that:

o All drivers are properly licensed for the equipment that they are to be driving and that they

are trained in safe driving procedures.

o Equipment is inspected prior to being moved and any deficiencies corrected prior to moving

the equipment.

o Complete annual inspections of vehicles is performed.

o All drivers should have in their possession the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations

Pocketbook. These regulations require that no motor vehicle be driven unless the driver

thereof has satisfied him or her self that the following parts and accessories are in good

working order, nor will any driver fail to use or make use of such parts and accessories when

and as needed:

• Service brakes, including trailer brake connections

• Parking (hand) brake

• Steering mechanism

• Lighting devices and reflectors

• Tires

• Horn

• Windshield wiper or wipers

• Rear-vision mirror or mirrors

• Coupling devices

• Seat belts

The above is a representative list of items that must be checked prior to moving a vehicle. These and other

items are included in Attachment 3.A - Pre-Mobilization Checklist / Drilling Safety Guidance Document.

Perform a final examination to verify that the vehicle and load are safe to be moved. Know the height, width

and weight of the load. Verify that any needed permits are obtained or will be obtained en route to the drill

site.

Verify that all necessary traffic-control devices for each site to be visited that day are loaded in the vehicles

before they leave the office.

• For contract traffic-control services, verify that they are scheduled to be at the site with all needed

equipment.
