Re: Safety equipment costs for sewer inspection crew
Date: March 19, 1990
In my original estimate for costs for initiating a sewer
inspection program I estimated $7,000 - $8,000 for safety
equipment for the employees, which I would have purchased
out of my operating budget. This figure was too low. I
failed to consider OSHA rule #1910.46 which requires gas
meters in each manhole. I also failed to consider that I
would need 2 employees in the manholes (one at each end of
the section being tested). Therefore, I need an additional
$18,640 to be allocated for the program.
