Visible Indicators of Potential IDLH and Other Dangerous Conditions
While off-site, the qualified person will look for indicators that give clues about the nature of the hazards on-site, including:
- large containers or tanks that must be entered
- enclosed spaces such as buildings or trenches that must be entered
- potentially explosive or flammable situations (indicated by bulging drums, effervescence, gas generation, or instrument readings)
- extremely hazardous materials (such as cyanide, phosgene, or radiation sources), visible vapor clouds
- areas where biological indicators (such as dead animals or vegetation) are located
