CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 18 of 28 4.19.5 The Site RSO shall confirm that a licensed (Canada) or certified (U.S.) dosimetry service is used to measure and monitor the doses of AECOM personnel that may receive any dose in excess an AECOM administrative dose limit. 4.19.6 For U.S. operations, all personnel dosimeters (except for direct and indirect reading pocket ionization chambers and those dosimeters used to measure the dose to the extremities) that require processing to determine the radiation dose and that are used to comply with applicable regulations must be processed and evaluated by a certified dosimetry processor: • Holding current personnel dosimetry accreditation from the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and • Approved in this accreditation process for the type of radiation or radiations included in the NVLAP program that most closely approximates the type of radiation or radiations for which the individual wearing the dosimeter is monitored. 4.20 Types of Surveys 4.20.1 Radiation surveys may be performed to measure exposure or dose rates from sources of radiation that are in buildings, soil, or water. Surveys shall be conducted as necessary to prevent exposures from exceeding occupational dose limits and to confirm areas are posted in accordance with action levels. 4.20.2 Exposure and dose rate calculations may be substituted for actual radiation surveys if based on reliable scientific, peer-reviewed assumptions/historical data. 4.20.3 Contamination surveys may be performed to monitor the magnitude and extent of loose surface and/or fixed contamination on building floors/walls/surfaces, equipment, materials, supplies, or personnel. 4.21 Selection of Instruments 4.21.1 The selection of a proper radiation detection instrument is extremely important in implementing a proper radiation protection program and for measuring the proper types and levels of radiation required to meet project objectives. 4.21.2 Those selecting instruments must consider the minimum level of detection, the type of radiation measured, the energy level of the radiation source and the detector’s ability to measure it, and durability of the instrument to perform in the prescribed field conditions. 4.21.3 Personnel using radiological instrumentation shall be trained in the proper operation, use and instrument limitations. 4.21.4 Project Managers and Site Supervisors should consult with the Site RSO, the Business Group RSO, or designee before purchasing, renting or using radiation detection instruments. 4.21.5 Personnel using radiological instrumentation shall be trained in the proper operation, use and instrument limitations. 4.22 Instrument Calibration and Maintenance 4.22.1 All instruments will be calibrated by a qualified calibration/repair facility at least annually in accordance with manufacturers’ instructions. A calibration certificate will be maintained on site for each instrument and included in the project file (maintained for 3 years) and in the final report. 4.22.2 Each instrument shall be checked at the beginning and end of each shift with check sources to verify that it’s responding adequately. Unless more stringent site-specific criteria have been established satisfactory performance test results will be within +/- 20% of the expected response. If the instrument fails the post-survey source check, the Site RSO will review all data collected during that time period with the instrument and will adjust it or discard it, as appropriate. The affected data shall be flagged and later studied by the Site RSO to determine if they are useable. Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 19 of 28 4.22.3 Control charts shall be maintained to monitor the performance of field instruments for the duration of the project. If survey equipment requires repair during a workday, it shall be repaired and its proper function verified before it is returned to use. 4.22.4 Project or group-specific procedures may be developed to provide more detailed procedures and forms for instrument calibration and maintenance. 4.23 External Dose Monitoring 4.23.1 Use of external dosimetry or other method of estimating worker exposure for a project or program shall be described in the applicable RPP. All contact with the radiation badge service company for a new project or program is to be made through the Site RSOs and will coordinate delivery and receipt of dosimeters and dose reports. 4.23.2 External radiation dosimeters such as TLDs or optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters appropriate for the radiations to be monitored shall be issued by the Site RSO to the individual and shall be required to be worn by: • Adults, minors and declared pregnant women likely to receive, in one year, a dose from sources external to the body in excess of 10 percent of the administrative dose limits, or Individuals entering a HR/VHR Area; and • Individuals responding to emergencies involving radioactive material or ionizing radiation. 4.23.3 Individuals who are likely to exceed 10 percent of the applicable extremity-absorbed dose limit must wear ring dosimeters. 4.23.4 The Site RSO shall determine the “likely to exceed 10 percent” status of an individual, the dosimeter type, the wear period, exchange period, etc. Any AECOM Employee shall immediately notify the Site RSO of changes in site conditions or radiation producing device procedures that could significantly increase or decrease radiation doses to personnel or which could otherwise affect the need for external dosimetry. 4.23.5 Radiation dosimeters shall: • Not be issued for wear periods greater than 3 months; • Not be deceptively exposed; • Be issued to only one person and not shared; • Not be stored near sources of radiation when is storage; • Not be exposed to high heat, chemical or physical insults, or washed in a washing machine; • Not be worn during medical or dental x-ray examinations; and • Not be worn after medical administration of radioactive materials (thyroid ablation therapy, cardiac stress tests, diagnostic nuclear medicine tests, etc.) until approved by the Site RSO. 4.23.6 No person shall wear dosimeters issued by AECOM while working for another employer or institution without prior approval from the Site RSO. Employees shall notify the Site RSO if they are concurrently working for another (non-AECOM) employer and working with sources of ionizing radiation or radioactive material. 4.23.7 Employees shall notify the Program/Site RSO immediately upon learning of possible deceptive exposures of dosimeters. Intentional deceptive exposures of dosimeters are forbidden and may result in enforcement actions. 4.23.8 Lost or damaged dosimeters shall be reported to the Site RSO as soon as possible.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 20 of 28 4.24 Wearing Dosimeters 4.24.1 Whole body dosimeters shall be worn at the location on the whole body likely to receive the highest dose. Normally this is the mid-section of the torso unless otherwise specified. The “whole body” is defined as the area between the knees and the neck including the upper arms. 4.24.2 Whole body dosimeters shall be worn inside PPE such as coveralls and leaded aprons. 4.24.3 For fetal monitoring for declared pregnant females, whole body dosimeters should be worn on the abdomen. If a leaded apron is worn (as in radiology), the dosimeter should normally be placed on the abdomen, under the apron. 4.24.4 Extremity dosimeters shall be placed on the applicable hand or foot. Ring dosimeters shall be placed on the dominant hand facing in (palm side of the hand). Extremity dosimetry requirements are provided in the RWP. 4.24.5 If multiple dosimeters are required, the procedure for wearing these dosimeters shall be described in the RPP or RWP. 4.25 Reporting Dose 4.25.1 Employees of AECOM that are assigned dosimetry badges shall collect and return used dosimeters to the Site RSO promptly prior to receiving replacement dosimeters at the beginning of a new wear period. The Site RSO will then send the Employee dosimeters, along with the control dosimeter, to the contracted dosimetry provider. Upon receiving the results from them, the Site RSO shall notify the Employees of their reported dose and place copies of the reports in the project files. Dose records are copied and summaries provided to the employee on an annual basis or at the end of project that lasts less than one year. 4.25.2 AECOM Employees may make a written request to obtain a copy of his/her dose records at any time. These records are maintained by and are available from the Site RSO. 4.25.3 After termination of employment, the Site RSO shall provide the former employee with a dose report (termination report) in the recorded dose exceeded 10 percent of any radiation dose limit in the applicable reporting period. 4.26 Internal Dose Monitoring 4.26.1 Use of internal monitoring for a project or program shall be described in the applicable RPP. This section identifies the procedure to be followed when determining if and when Employees are to be included in an internal radiation dose monitoring program. An internal radiation dose monitoring program helps verify that the implemented radioactive material controls maintain internal employee exposures ALARA. 4.26.2 This section applies to AECOM operations and should be used as guidelines for subcontractors who perform radiological investigation, characterization, and remediation work for AECOM. The term Employee refers only to AECOM personnel and the requirements apply only to them and not to subcontractor personnel. 4.26.3 Initial Employment • New Employees beginning work with AECOM whose job duties specifically require working with and/or exposure to loose or airborne radioactive materials routinely shall inform the Site RSO of their previous radiation exposure history, if any. NRC Form 4 or equivalent may be used. • Applicable Employees with a previous radiation exposure history who cannot provide documentation of their previous internal exposure shall submit a urine specimen for radiological analysis and/or submit to having a whole body radiation count if requested by the Site RSO. Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 21 of 28 • Employees without previous radiological exposure experience shall be required to initially submit a urine specimen or have a whole body count accomplished prior to beginning work with radioactive materials. 4.26.4 Initiation of a Project • Employees assigned to work in a radiologically controlled area where there is loose and/or airborne radioactive material and there is a potential for internal deposition of radionuclides, shall, at the direction of the Site RSO, submit either a 24-hour urine specimen for radiological analysis prior to being permitted in the radiologically controlled area. This requirement establishes the individual’s internal radionuclide deposition baseline. • No Employee shall be permitted in an area where there is the potential for internal deposition of radioactive material without having a baseline bioassay established. • Bioassays shall only be required if radionuclide(s) present can be effectively monitored for using bioassay methods. 4.26.5 Routine Bioassays • For Class D (Absorption Type F) radionuclides, a weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly specimen(s) will be collected. A change in sampling frequency may be performed if the Site RSO determines that more sampling is necessary. • For Class W (Absorption Type M) radionuclides, monthly to quarterly specimens will be collected. A change in sampling frequency may be performed if the Site RSO determines that more sampling is necessary. • For Class Y (Absorption Type S) radionuclides, quarterly or annual specimens will be collected. A change in sampling frequency may be performed if the Site RSO determines that more sampling is necessary. • Any Employee who has reason to believe that he/she may have had an internal deposition of radioactive material shall note the time of the suspected intake and promptly notify the Site RSO and Project Manager as soon as possible. When an investigation by the establishment that internal deposition could have occurred, the Employee shall provide a urine specimen for radiological analysis. 4.26.6 Termination of a Project/Exit Bioassay • At the completion of the project, upon demobilization from the radiologically controlled area, upon termination of employment, or at a time determined by the Site RSO, each Employee who participated in a routine bioassay program shall submit either a urine specimen for radiological analysis or submit to a whole body count at the direction of the Site RSO. 4.26.7 Exceptions to Exit Bioassay • The Site RSO may request from the Business Group RSO an exception to the above requirement be made. At a minimum, the written request for exception should include measurements and/or calculations that demonstrate that no legal or administrative dose limit was exceeded. The Business Group RSO will approve or disapprove of the request for exception and provide the decision in writing to the Site RSO. 4.26.8 Emergency Response Projects • Some projects, by their nature, require emergency response personnel to assist in mitigating and/or removing conditions that exist outside normal operating parameters. These responses usually require immediate attention. • Applicable procedures for emergency response bioassays are found in S3AM-120-ATT1 Bioassays Procedure.

The safe and efficient management of radioactive material (RAM), low-level radioactive waste (LLRW), and limited generation of Mixed LLRW is paramount to the success of many of field projects. General controls that should be in place for the storage of RAM, LLRW and MLLW include: • Materials and waste should be segregated and only be stored in a designated Radioactive Material Area. • Storage of non-radioactive materials in a Radioactive Materials Area is discouraged. • Each Radioactive Material Area should be approved by the Site RSO. • The Site RSO or Site Supervisor should conduct walkthroughs of the Radioactive Materials Area to ensure material and waste is properly segregated and stored. • Generally outdoor storage of RAM is discouraged. However outdoor storage of waste and contaminated equipment may be necessary. Ensure all material is properly stored and contained to prevent the release of radioactivity. Additionally ensure the area is properly secured from inadvertent access and is properly posted. • RAM should be stored in a manner that reduces combustible loading. The use of cardboard containers for storage is discouraged. • Flammable or combustible materials should not be stored adjacent to Radioactive Materials Areas. • Fire protection measures, such as smoke detectors, water sprinklers and fire extinguishers, should be considered when establishing a Radioactive Materials Area. The following sections address specific on-site controls that’s should be in place to confirm that materials will be managed properly without creating unnecessary exposures or spreading contamination. 4.27.1 Material Controls RAM should only be stored in areas that are clearly designated as Radioactive Materials Areas. Each RAM package stored in a radioactive materials area must be clearly labelled with a “Radioactive” warning label on the outside of the package (10 CFR 20.1904 [a]). Additionally, RAM should be stored such that: o Storage areas shall be cordoned off to prevent unauthorized access. If public access to the project site is not strictly controlled, RAM storage areas should be locked in a cage, room or building, or enclosed by a fence. o Storage areas having dose rates in excess of 5 mrem/hr at 1 foot from any surface are “radiation areas” and shall posted as such (10 CFR 20.1902 [a]). o Storage areas having dose rates in excess of 100 mrem/hr at 1 foot from any surface are “high radiation areas” and shall be posted as such and locked or guarded (10 CFR 20.1902 [b]). o Areas in which RAM is used or stored shall be posted as a Radioactive Materials Area (10 CFR 20.1902 [c]). o RAM should be stored to minimize exposure in accordance with the ALARA concept. Shielding may be necessary to reduce dose rates to acceptable levels. The Site RSO is responsible for maintaining exposures ALARA. o Storage areas shall, at a minimum, be surveyed quarterly for radiation and contamination unless otherwise authorized by the Corporate RSO. Unexpected changes in radiation or contamination levels should be reported to the Corporate RSO as soon as possible. Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 23 of 28 4.27.2 Contamination Control • General contamination control methods should be described in RPPs. However, some specific practices may be implemented to help control the spread of contamination during the handling of RAM. • Personnel should perform and document a survey on incoming used material that may come into contact with radiological contamination. This survey will include scanning measurements and removable contamination smears or large-area maslin wipes and should be conducted before the container enters a controlled area. Survey forms should include a unique container number and date of survey. Should contamination be identified, the container will not be used and the container provider must be notified immediately by the Project Manager or Site Supervisor. • When practical, personnel should bag or wrap material coming from a Contamination, High Contamination, or Airborne Radioactivity Area if it is confirmed or suspected of having removable radioactive contamination above the site release criteria prior to placing the material in a storage or waste container. Thick or durable bags and plastic wrap should be used to reduce the possibility of punctures and tears. Material with sharp edges or projections should be taped or additionally protected to confirm package integrity. Wrapping or bagging contaminated materials will limit spreading contamination to the interior of the container. If the RAM has removable contamination levels that far exceed the release criteria (e.g., 100 times), additional packaging controls such as double-wrapping, or bagging should be used. • Alternatively, a reusable waste container, such as an intermodal, may be lined with plastic. Often such containers may be placed at the edge of a contaminated area so that material can be placed into it directly, without prior wrapping. Measures must still be taken to protect the outside of the container and the surrounding area from contamination. • Removable contamination surveys should be taken on the exterior of waste containers and nearby surfaces each day that waste is placed in the containers to confirm that waste loading activities are not contaminating the container or loading area. 4.27.3 Segregation of Materials AECOM personnel should attempt to segregate RAM and LLRW by like materials to prevent the unwanted mixing of materials. The following measures should be taken at project sites: • Solid material shall be stored and packaged separately from liquid materials. • Liquid materials shall be stored in such a manner that a secondary containment will limit the spread of the material in the event a storage container leaks or ruptures. • Materials contaminated only with radionuclides with short half-lives (< 120 days) should be placed in separate containers to allow for decay-in-storage. • Radioactive syringe needles, broken glass, laboratory glassware, and other sharps shall be packaged in a thick-walled plastic bottle with a tight-fitting screw top, a sharps container, or plastic pail. • Hazardous or potentially hazardous materials shall not be stored with or placed in a container with RAM or LLRW. • All pathogenic (capable of spreading disease) waste must be deactivated. 4.27.4 LLRW Minimization AECOM shall institute waste minimization practices at project sites to reduce the generation of radioactive waste and spread of contamination. The following practices should be instituted to support waste minimization: • Restrict material entering controlled areas to those needed for performance of work. Specifically, packaging materials should remain outside of radiological areas. Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 24 of 28 • Reuse equipment when practical. • On larger projects, reserve an assortment of tools primarily for use in controlled areas. Tools should be maintained in a designated storage or distribution area or a contaminated tool crib within the controlled area. • Emphasize training in waste reduction philosophies and waste minimization techniques. 4.27.5 Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials • NORM and TENORM consist of radioactive elements found in the environment, such as uranium, thorium and potassium and any of their decay products, such as radium and radon. They are present in very low concentrations in the earth's crust and are brought to the surface through many activities such as oil and gas exploration or mining and through natural processes like leakage of radon gas to the atmosphere or through dissolving in ground water. They cause problems in many industries and transportation. • Project Managers on sites suspected of containing NORM should contact the Business Group RSO or designee for information on NORM-related issues such as safety, instrument selection, transportation and disposal, etc. Many states and provinces deal with NORM regulations differently. • It is recommended the Project Manager or Site Supervisor be familiar with the correct rules and regulations specific to the project site, and determine if employees using radiological instruments need to be trained as NORM Surveyors. • MicroRoentgen or MicroRem instrumentation is the type of detector most recommended to observe low levels of NORM. 4.27.6 Gauge Sources • Only Authorized Users trained in the use and handling of portable gauges are authorized to handle the gauges. • The Business Group RSO is responsible for overall administration, management, coordination, effectiveness, and control of the radiation safety program for AECOM. The Site RSOs are authorized to supervise and administer the radiation safety program at the AECOM locations where gauge sources are stored. Specific requirements for the safe management of gauge sources is provided in AECOM procedure S3AM-122-PR1 Gauge Source Radiation. 4.27.7 Transportation In general, AECOM does not ship radioactive waste from a project site to a disposal facility. • Project Managers should use certified radioactive waste brokers to support shipments of radioactive waste. • However, AECOM may be involved in the transportation of radiologically contaminated environmental samples, exempt radioactive check sources, and regulated radioactive gauge sources. Shipping procedures should be provided in by project- or program-specific documents. In the event that a project does not have appropriate procedures to ship radioactive materials, the Project Manager should contact the Site RSO or the Business Group RSO. • DOT and the CNSC have very specific rules and regulations that govern the transportation of radioactive materials. The DOT’s Hazardous Material Regulations are found in 49 CFR 172 and 49 CFR 173. AECOM Employees involved in shipping radioactive materials shall meet the training requirements provided in the appropriate regulations. 4.28 Emergency Procedures 4.28.1 Emergency procedure for a project or program shall be provided in or referenced in the applicable RPP. Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 25 of 28 4.28.2 Medical Emergencies • A medical emergency is a situation that presents a significant threat to the health of Employees on site. Chemical exposure, heat stress, injuries, and poisonous insect bites can cause medical emergencies. Proper care must be initiated immediately. Proper care may be in the form of first aid treatment or emergency hospitalization. • Emergency medical care always has priority over health physics/radioactive contamination concerns and will not be delayed because of such concerns. If possible, health physics personnel should accompany or follow contaminated or potentially contaminated victims to the medical care facility with survey instruments to help medical care providers address this issue. 4.29 Unexpected Levels of Radiation or Airborne Radioactivity 4.29.1 AECOM performs surveys and calculations to demonstrate that exposure rates and airborne radioactivity mandate the use of dosimetry and respiratory protection. 4.29.2 Should these surveys and calculations indicate ambient dose rates greater than 50 mR/hr or airborne radioactive could be greater than 5 percent of an applicable DAC (or if the unity rule applied to airborne radioactivity exceeds 0.05), the Business Group RSO shall be notified and they will then determine the requirements, if any, for additional health physics measure, such as self- reading dosimeters and respiratory protection. 4.30 Excessive Personnel Contamination 4.30.1 Generally, in application of the ALARA principle, no personnel contamination is tolerable. 4.30.2 Any detected personnel contamination shall be reported to the Site RSO immediately. The Site RSO will investigate the cause of and determine the extent of any personnel contamination. The Site RSO will document the incident in case dose evaluations are required later. The Site RSO will report the incident to the Site Supervisor and Project Manager at the earliest opportunity. 4.30.3 Contaminated personnel shall be decontaminated, with assistance from support personnel, prior to exiting the Controlled Area (RCA) or the general area where the contamination occurred. Contaminated personnel shall be decontaminated using materials such as soap and water, waterless hand cleaner, and paper towels or rags whenever possible. All contaminated areas on the body, including hair, should be thoroughly decontaminated. If clothing is contaminated, it should be removed in a way to minimize further contact with the substance. 4.30.4 The Business Group RSO will be consulted for additional guidance if these basic decontamination measures are not completely effective. 4.31 Suspected Inhalation or Ingestion 4.31.1 The Site Supervisor and Business Group RSO will be notified immediately of suspected inhalation or ingestion of radioactive material. The Business Group RSO shall provide appropriate instructions for a suitable response, which may include bioassay. 4.32 Internal Program Assessment 4.32.1 AECOM shall conduct internal assessments of the Radiation Safety Program at least annually to identify its strengths and weaknesses, areas of vulnerability, and noncompliance. The assessment shall include a review of the annual summary reports provided to the Business Group RSO by Site RSO’s, examination of the radiological protection program content, and implementation. 5.0 Records 5.1 The Site RSO shall maintain records of ALARA evaluations for a period of 5 years. 5.2 ALARA evaluations shall also be transmitted to the Employee’s Area Safety Manager and placed in the Employee’s safety training file.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 26 of 28 5.3 The Program and Site RSOs shall maintain records of periodic ALARA trending, annual ALARA summary reports, and ALARA evaluations for a period of 5 years. 5.4 General Record-Keeping Requirements 5.4.1 The following records presented in Table 4 shall be maintained by AECOM personnel. These records shall be maintained in a readily retrievable manner that will be subject to internal AECOM inspection and/or regulatory audit. 5.4.2 Surveys, instrument control records, and waste generation/transportation/disposal records generated during work performed for a client at a temporary job location shall become part of the project file and retained or transfer to the client along with other project documents. If work is being performed under an AECOM license, however, all records are also retained by the Site RSO. All records that describe or support assigning occupational dose to AECOM personnel, regardless of whose license the dose was acquired under, shall be maintained by AECOM.

Page 2 of 2 Americas First Aid S3NA-012-PR1 1.0 Purpose and Scope 1.1 The purpose of this procedure is to ensure employee accessibility to first aid personnel and supplies commensurate with the hazards of the workplace. 1.2 This procedure applies to all AECOM Americas employees and operations, except where legislation is more stringent. 2.0 Terms and Definitions 2.1 Automated External Defibrillator (AED) – A portable electronic device that automatically diagnoses the potentially life threatening cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia in a patient, and is able to treat them through defibrillation, the application of electrical therapy which stops the arrhythmia, allowing the heart to re-establish an effective rhythm; are used in the resuscitation of a patient in full cardiac arrest. 2.2 Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) – An emergency procedure in which the heart and lungs are made to work by: • Manually compressing the chest overlying the heart, or • Both manually compressing the chest and performing rescue breaths that force air into the lungs. CPR is applied to a victim in respiratory distress and/or to maintain circulation when the heart stops pumping (cardiac arrest), which may be due to heart tissue damage (heart attack), disease, electrical shock, drug overdose, drowning, suffocation, stroke or trauma. 2.3 First Aid Provider – Is a First Aid, CPR, and AED trained employee who provides emergency first aid or treatment (including performing CPR and applying an AED) to someone who is injured or suddenly ill, before emergency medical services (EMS) arrives. This is a voluntary action and not an occupational duty assigned by AECOM. They may use a limited amount of equipment to perform initial assessment and provide immediate life support and care while awaiting arrival of emergency medical services. 2.4 High Risk Task(s) – For the purpose of this procedure, a work related task with the potential to cause traumatic injury/illness or immediate life threatening conditions. 2.5 Occupational Exposure – Reasonably anticipated skin, eye mucous membrane, or parenteral contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials that may result from the performance of an employee's duties. Employees will be considered to be potentially exposed, even though they are using the precautions specified for the project. 3.0 References 3.1 S3NA-003-PR1 SH&E Training 3.2 S3NA-004-PR1 Incident Reporting, Notifications & Investigation 3.3 S3NA-010-PR1 Emergency Response Planning 3.4 S3NA-018-PR1 Injury & Claims Management 3.5 S3NA-111-PR1 Bloodborne Pathogens 3.6 S3NA-208-PR1 Personal Protective Equipment First Aid (S3NA-012-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED.

Before undertaking any activity, the hazards shall be identified by persons competent to recognize them using professional experience and training including the following: a. Utilization of a formal hazard identification process; b. Information from review and improvement processes; c. Consideration of hazardous materials required for task(s); d. Location of work and proximity to outside hazards or equipment; e. Anticipation or possible change of conditions; f. Consideration of risk of human error; g. Identifying level of training required for task; and h. Any other factors that can introduce hazard or risk into the activity. 4.2.2 Hazard identification should consider: a. Routine and non-routine activities; b. Activities of all persons having access to the workplace (including contractors and visitors); c. Human behavior, capabilities and other human factors; Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 2 of 10 d. Identified hazards originating outside the workplace capable of adversely affecting the health and safety of persons under the control of AECOM within the workplace; e. Hazards created in the vicinity of the workplace by work-related activities under the control of AECOM and neighboring activates not under AECOM control; f. Infrastructure, equipment, and materials at the workplace, whether provided by AECOM or others; g. Changes or proposed changes in the organization of AECOM, its activities, or materials; h. Modification to the SH&E management system, including temporary changes, and their impacts on operations, processes, and activities; i. Any applicable legal obligations relating to risk assessment and implementation of necessary controls; j. The design of work areas, processes, installations, machinery/equipment, operating procedures, and work organization, including their adaptation to human capabilities; and k. Driving and travel activities. 4.2.3 Risk Assessment a. Evaluate the work area for hazards as defined above. This applies to field, office, and travel settings. b. Determine whether identified hazards could affect employees, subcontractors, members of the public, visitors, or others. c. Assess the severity and probability of any identified hazard occurring. This is generally based on experience, although incident statistics are available for most industries. The assessment of probability must also take into consideration the frequency with which exposure to a particular hazard will take place (e.g., the probability of occurrence is much greater if the activity is a daily event involving a number of individuals, compared with the same activity carried out twice a year by few individuals as part of a maintenance procedure). d. Severity Be realistic when considering how severe the result of exposure to a hazard could be. For example, it is remotely possible that someone tripping over a cable in an office may be killed, but the most probable result is bruising or a fractured bone. If, however, the cable is trailing across the top of a very busy stairway, a more severe injury is possible. The following table shall be used to evaluate severity: Severity – Potential Consequences People Property Environmental Public Damage Impact Image/Reputation Catastrophic Fatality, Multiple Major >$1M USD, Offsite impact Government Incidents Structural requiring intervention collapse remediation Critical Permanent impairment, >$250K to Onsite impact Media intervention Long term injury/illness $1M USD requiring remediation Major Lost Time /Restricted > $10K to Release at/above Owner intervention Work $250K USD reportable limit Moderate Medical Treatment > $1K to $10K Release below Community or local USD reportable limit attention Minor First Aid </=$1K USD Small chemical Individual complaint release contained onsite Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 3 of 10 e. Probability Determining the probability of a hazard actually causing harm can be much more difficult than determining the severity. The factors affecting the analysis of probability are: The number of times the situation occurs The position of the hazards Distractions The duration of exposure Quantities of materials involved Environmental conditions Competence of the people involved Condition of equipment. In analyzing the probability of harm, it will be necessary to take into account the possibility of the control measures not being used because of human error, lack of maintenance, difficulty in compliance, complexity, etc. The following table shall be used to determine probability: Probability Frequent Expected to occur during task/activity 9/10 Probable Likely to occur during task/activity 1/10 Occasional May occur during the task/activity 1/100 Remote Unlikely to occur during task/activity 1/1,000 Improbable Highly unlikely to occur, but possible during task/activity 1/10,000 4.2.4 Risk Matrix A quantitative risk rating can be derived for each hazard using the following table. Severity Probability 5 - Catastrophic 4 – Critical 3 – Major 2 – Moderate 1 - Minor 5 – Frequent 25 20 15 10 5 4 – Probable 20 16 12 8 4 3 – Occasional 15 12 9 6 3 2 – Remote 10 8 6 4 2 1 - Improbable 5 4 3 2 1 Use of the quantitative risk table shown above can help to determine whether or not the level of risk is tolerable. This can assist in deciding priorities for action. In general, higher risks (yellow and red) may require the provision of considerable additional resources involving special equipment, training, high levels of supervision, and consideration of the most effective methods of eliminating or controlling hazards. Lower-level risks may be considered as acceptable, but actions should still be taken to try to reduce them further, if possible. The risk rating for a project should be revised if the scope of work changes and at a minimum, the risk rating should be re-assessed on an annually basis.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 4 of 10 Risk Rating (Probability x Risk Acceptance Authority Severity) 1 to 4 (Low) Risk is tolerable, manage at local level 5 to 9 (Medium) Risk requires approval by Operations Lead/Supervisor & SH&E Manager 10 to 25 (High) Risk requires the approval of the Operations Manager & SH&E Director 4.2.5 Hierarchy of Controls Controlling exposures to hazards is the fundamental method of protecting workers. Traditionally, a hierarchy of controls has been used as a means of determining how to implement feasible and effective control solutions. The idea behind this hierarchy is that the control methods at the top of graphic are potentially more effective and protective than those at the bottom. Following this hierarchy normally leads to the implementation of inherently safer systems, where the risk of illness or injury has been substantially reduced. Source: http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/hierarchy/ Eliminating a hazard is the most effective means to manage a hazard. Substitution and engineering strategies include replacing a hazardous substance with a safer one, reducing the hazard (e.g., ventilation), or isolating it from where employees are working (e.g., enclosing a noisy machine). Administrative controls include policies, training, job rotation, signage, or temporary barriers to warn of a hazard or describe safe procedures. Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety glasses and hardhats place a barrier between the worker and the hazard, but do not prevent the occurrence of the incident. PPE is considered the least effective method of controlling a hazard because it depends on proper selection and fit, employee compliance, and availability.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 5 of 10 4.3 Preplanning for Development of Risk Assessment Documentation 4.3.1 Coordination must be made by management with representatives of the client, regulatory authorities (if needed), and other appropriate personnel to determine and coordinate such items as: a. Measures to protect the public and/or other persons exposed to the work operations. b. Client requirements and local, state, and/or federal laws and regulations that are applicable to the project. c. Procedures for handling and reporting incidents, property damage, and other emergencies. d. Disciplinary policies and management of restricted access for company employees and subcontractors/vendors. 4.3.2 As soon as possible, conduct an initial review of the work location and review the proposed work activity to determine, to the extent possible, existing or probable hazardous conditions and restricted areas. 4.4 Risk Assessment Documentation Risk assessment documentation includes SH&E Plans, Pre-Job Hazard Assessments, Daily Tailgate Meetings and Task Hazard Assessments. 4.4.1 SH&E Plan. All AECOM office locations are required to prepare an SH&E Plan using S3NA-209-FM1 Office SH&E Plan Template. A SH&E Plan is required for work activities outside of an AECOM office. The SH&E Plan is often required by regulation, insurance policy requirements, or client requirement. A template is provided in S3NA-209-FM2 Industrial Site / Project SH&E Plan Template. In addition, S3NA-209-FM3 Procedure Checklist can be used to assist in determining which AECOM SH&E procedures apply to the scope of work. Applicable procedures shall be attached to the SH&E Plan. A typical SH&E Plan includes the following components: a. Descriptions of roles and responsibilities for the activity. b. Hazard analysis for each task and operation found in the work plan. c. Supplementary information to the attached procedures (e.g., jurisdiction-specific requirements, client requirements, etc.) d. Supervision. e. Training requirements. f. Personal protective equipment requirements for the separate tasks or operating areas. g. Medical surveillance requirements (for chemical exposure, noise, radiation, etc.). h. Frequency and types of monitoring for physical and chemical hazards. i. Pre-entry briefings requirements for visitors and workers. j. Location-specific Emergency Response Plan. Refer to S3NA-010-PR1 Emergency Response Planning. k. Client requirements that are more stringent than AECOM’s SH&E requirements. l. In California, the SH&E Plan must also address the Injury Illness Prevention Program. Refer to S3NA-209-ATT1 for additional information. m. A SH&E Plan for hazardous waste operations may also include: Site access and control measures. Site specific information on chemical, biological or radiation hazards. Decontamination procedures. Confined Space Entry plan. Spill containment plan. Waste management. Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 6 of 10 n. A SH&E Plan for construction activities may also include: Traffic plan and site access controls. Electrical and machinery protective measures. Trench and excavation safety. Fall protection and rescue plans. Storage for combustible and flammable materials. Sediment and community noise control plans. o. A SH&E Plan for a demolition project may also include: Materials movement plan. Critical task sequencing. Explosives safety. Dust control measures. Removal of asbestos and lead-containing materials. 4.4.2 Pre-Job Hazard Assessment. Pre-Job Hazard Assessment is essential to ensure that hazards and risks are recognized. A Pre-Job Hazard Assessment describes the task being performed, the inherent risks, and the control measures for those risks. Pre-Job Hazard Assessments are completed before the work activities commence and are updated based on lessons learned. Workers involved in the task should participate in the hazard assessment process so that best practices are shared and all possible hazards of the task are identified. Pre-job Hazard Assessments are performed by: Identifying the principle steps of each task being performed. Potential hazards are identified for each step and the initial risk rating is determined using the Risk Matrix. Control measures are then identified including PPE for each hazard. Each hazard is then re-evaluated and assigned a final risk rating using the Risk Matrix. If the final risk rating is a 5-9 (medium risk) or 10-25 (high risk), additional hazard controls shall be identified and applied until the final risk rating is reduced to 4 or below. If the final risk rating cannot be reduced to 4 or lower, additional approvals are needed before the activity can begin. Pre-Job Hazard Assessments may be completed as a stand-alone document, or may be incorporated into an SH&E Plan. Pre-Job Hazard Assessments are similar to Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA), Job Hazard Analysis (JHA), Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and other terms and formats; however, unless otherwise indicated by client requirement, S3NA-209-FM4 Pre-Job Hazard Assessment shall be utilized. Information collected during the Pre-Job Hazard Assessment must be referenced as part of the site- specific SH&E Plan. In addition Pre-Job Hazard Assessments must be communicated to employees and subcontractors on-site. Copies of the Pre-Job Hazard Assessments will be kept on- site for review. 4.4.3 Daily Tailgate Meeting. A tailgate meeting for all project personnel will be held daily (excluding fixed-facility locations where AECOM employees permanently work full time). A record of the meetings will include the name of all attendees, items discussed, and date/time of meeting. S3NA- 209-FM5 Daily Tailgate Meeting Form may be used to document the meeting. Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 7 of 10 At a minimum, the meeting will involve representatives from all organizations with a direct contractual relationship with AECOM on the project site. Other contractors working in the area of AECOM’s activities should also be invited to the meeting when possible. All members of the meeting should be engaged and encouraged to participate and provide input and feedback. Objectives for the meeting should include: Eliminating injuries, illnesses, and damage to the environment or property. Review planned work activities. Clarify roles and responsibilities. Confirm work crew is fit-for-duty. Assess, identify and mitigate hazards. Share lessons learned and observations. Review simultaneous operations with other non-AECOM controlled activities (e.g., other contractors performing work in the vicinity of AECOM’s operations, fuel delivery at the location, utility company working near AECOM operations). 4.4.4 Task Hazard Assessment (THA). A THA is the most important element in an effective hazard identification and risk reduction program. S3NA-209-FM6 Task Hazard Assessment shall be completed before every assigned task at the work location. The focus of the analysis shall be on the specific assigned task and the evaluation of risks and assignment of control measures based on actual work conditions. A THA is a portion of the overall job scope, focused at the specific foreman and/or crew level. Task Hazard Assessments must be completed prior to the start of work. Re-assessment must also be completed when a significant change of scope occurs or if conflicting work is being done. Completion of the THA involves both the site supervision and employees involved in the work. Task Hazard Assessment steps: Assemble employees involved in the work. Review the scope of work being performed. Break the task into individual steps. Identify actual and potential hazards. Rank the risk using the Risk Matrix. Develop appropriate controls measures for each hazard. Rank the post control measure risk using the Risk Matrix. Review the assessment. Confirm communication of the THA to all affected employees. Confirm the THA is reviewed by any visitors or additional or new personnel brought on to perform the task. If the final risk rating is a 5-9 (medium risk) or 10-25 (high risk), additional hazard controls shall be identified and applied until the final risk rating is reduced to 4 or below. If the final risk rating cannot be reduced to 4 or lower, additional approvals are required before the activity can begin. Employees shall monitor the activities for compliance with the THA. Workers should stop any work on a task if conditions change from the planned and agreed approach to the work. The THA should be updated to reflect new conditions or changes in task methods. 4.5 Key Elements in Risk Management at a Site 4.5.1 Regularly, or at least once per month, conduct safety meetings for supervisory personnel, including those of other contractors and subcontractors. Suggested action items for these meetings include: Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 8 of 10 a. Reviewing of the safety procedures and policies applicable to the project. b. Identifying responsibilities of the various parties, including contractor(s) and subcontractor(s) obligations. c. Reviewing noted and anticipated hazards, and plan methods to eliminate or control them. d. Discussing incidents and near misses to determine causes and steps necessary to prevent reoccurrence. e. Discussing suggestions and ideas for improving the project’s safety program. f. Maintaining a record of these meetings; this will be done by the safety representative or supervisor. 4.5.2 Regular inspections of active work areas will be made by the project supervisors and the site SH&E representative. To be effective, such inspections should occur on all shifts, should be unannounced, and should occur at varied intervals. a. Imminent danger situations must be stopped and corrected immediately. Refer to S3NA-002- PR1 Stop Work Authority. b. Inadequate or deficient protective measures and unsafe or unhealthy work practices must be brought to the immediate attention of the appropriate supervisor and/or manager for correction and disciplinary action, as required. c. Inform the manager of all deficiencies not immediately correctable, and/or that may result in damage to facilities, equipment, or work in progress, or that create hazardous exposures to employees or the public. 4.5.3 Signs and posters of appropriate size and design, and bearing standard pertinent regulations, will be used to convey warnings, directions, and instructions to personnel and the public, as required by the client and other applicable regulations. The observance of such safety and incident prevention signs will be strictly required of company employees and visitors while on the project site. 4.5.4 Consideration must be given to make the project environmental protection plan effective. The type and extent of the measures needed for pollution control, hazardous materials handling, hazardous waste control and disposal, and for relating occupational health issues will depend upon the contract stipulations, hazard involved, type of operation, and the mandatory requirements of regulatory authorities. Such measures will include appropriate control methods necessary to prevent or reduce to safe levels exposure to hazardous substances. 4.5.5 It is the practice of AECOM to commend and reward employees and their supervisors for achieving excellence in their field of work, particularly when that work is performed safely. Project management is encouraged to promote and participate in safety recognition programs by developing project-specific safety goals and including safety incentive programs in project budgets. Project goals should include proactive goals such as training participation and training support, safety observations conducted, and management participation in safety reviews (e.g., safety walk- downs). 4.5.6 All employees are empowered and expected to stop work or not start work when it is unsafe. Employees will be trained on stop work authority upon initial assignment. Refer to S3NA-002-PR1 Stop Work Authority. 4.6 Other Requirements 4.6.1 The following requirements apply to SH&E risk assessment documentation: Preparation of the SH&E documentation may be performed by a member of the project team or SH&E. SH&E documentation (including draft versions of documents) will be reviewed by a SH&E Manager prior to release for outside agency review (e.g., clients, regulatory agencies, etc.) and prior to its field implementation. Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED. CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 9 of 10 Changes to approved SH&E documentation require concurrence from a SH&E Manager (or designee). This includes those made in response to changing field conditions or operational requirements and those made in response to regulator/client comments. Any written responses made to regulator/client comments also must be reviewed by the SH&E Manager. The SH&E documentation for any project lasting twelve (12) months or longer will be reviewed at periodic intervals, but at least annually. The SH&E Manager will review the changes and determine whether modifications are required to the existing SH&E planning documentation. This confirms that the documentation continues to reflect the current scope of work and knowledge of site conditions, and that any revised regulatory requirements are properly addressed. The Manager will provide a master copy of the SH&E documentation to be maintained on site for reference by personnel, together with copies of any required SH&E- related records or operational documentation. The master copy must be current in all respects, and will include any changes or modifications made as work progresses. Managers will confirm that SH&E documents have been reviewed with affected personnel prior to implementation of field work. Sign-off and concurrence is mandatory and to be kept in the project records. 5.0 Records 5.1 Completed SH&E Plans, Pre-job Hazard Assessments, Tailgate Meeting Forms and Task Hazard Assessment will be filed in the appropriate project file. 6.0 Attachments 6.1 S3NA-209-ATT1 California Injury & Illness Prevention Program 6.2 S3NA-209-FM1 Office SH&E Plan Template 6.3 S3NA-209-FM2 Industrial Site / Project SH&E Plan Template 6.4 S3NA-209-FM3 Procedure Checklist 6.5 S3NA-209-FM4 Pre-Job Hazard Assessment 6.6 S3NA-209-FM5 Daily Tailgate Meeting Form 6.7 S3NA-209-FM6 Task Hazard Assessment 6.8 S3NA-209-FM6-A Task Hazard Assessment – Management Services Group 6.9 S3NA-209-FM7 Office Relocation Plan Risk Assessment & Management (S3NA-209-PR1) Revision 4 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED.

For these descriptions, Radiation Worker training is considered the same as Nuclear Energy Worker training. 4.5.2 RA – This course contains the basics in radiation protection and should be site/project specific. • This training is for AECOM Employees that may require non-routine or short-term unescorted access to radiological controlled areas (excluding Radiation Areas and Airborne Radiation Areas) to perform work functions. • This training is also acceptable for short-term site assessment activities for sites with known low-levels of radiation and contamination or where a qualified health physics or radiation protection technician has control of site access. • RA training is also given to personnel who work in areas where radioactive materials are stored but do not have authorized access to the materials or areas where radioactive materials may be inadvertently encountered (such as during environmental sampling in uncontrolled areas). • Personnel who receive RA training are NOT considered Radiation Workers or Nuclear Energy Workers and public dose limits apply. To exceed public dose limits, Employees must be trained to one of the requirements below. 4.5.3 Site-Specific Radiation Worker Training- This course is designed to provide the OSHA 1910.1096 (i)(2) and site-specific training necessary to work in a radiation area or exposed to radioactive materials. • The instruction shall include safety problems resulting from exposure to materials, instructed in the applicable provisions on exposure protection, and where individuals can get information on their radiation exposure. 4.5.4 NORM Surveyor – This course is designed to provide surveyor training for individuals performing "NORM" surveys. Topics include why survey, types of surveys, types of equipment surveyed, and techniques in the operation, use, and handling of various radiation survey instruments. 4.5.5 Radiation Worker I (RWI) – This course contains the core academics and the appropriate practical factors. • This training is for radiological workers whose job assignments require routine access to Radiological Buffer Areas and Radiation Areas. • RW I training is also suggested for unescorted entry into Radioactive Material Areas containing either sealed radioactive sources or radioactive material labelled in accordance with 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 835, or applicable Agreement State regulations. • RW I training alone does not prepare the Employee to work around higher radiation levels or with contaminated materials. It is suggested that RW I tasks be limited to inspections, tours and activities that involve work on non-radiological systems.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 9 of 28 4.5.6 Radiation Worker I Training with High/Very High Radiation Area Training – This course contains the core academics, the High/Very High Radiation Area (HR/VHR) module, and the appropriate practical factors. • The HR/VHR Area lesson plan may be added to the RW I course to give personnel unescorted entry into High Radiation Areas where contamination is not a concern. 4.5.7 Radiation Worker II Training (RW II) – This course consists of the core academics, the HR/VHR module, the Contamination Control module, and the appropriate practical factors. • This training is recommended for the radiological worker whose job assignments involve unescorted entry into High Radiation Areas, Contamination Areas, High Contamination Areas, and Airborne Radioactivity Areas. • Further, Employees who have potential contact with hot particles or use glove boxes with high contamination levels should complete RW II training. • RW II training prepares the Employee to work around higher radiation levels and with contaminated materials normally associated with radiological facilities/activities. 4.5.8 Nuclear Gauge Training – All Employees asked to work with nuclear gauges will be trained in safe radiation work practices and procedures in accordance with S3AM-122-PR1 Gauge Source Radiation. 4.5.9 Other Instrument-Specific Training – All Employees asked to work with devises that emit ionizing or non-ionizing radiation will be trained in safe work practices and procedures. 4.6 ALARA 4.6.1 Even though current occupational exposure limits provide a very low risk of injury, it is prudent to avoid unnecessary exposure to radiation. AECOM’s objective is thus to reduce occupational exposures as far below the specified limits as is reasonably achievable by means of good radiation protection planning and practice, as well as commitment to policies that foster vigilance against departures from good practice. 4.6.2 In addition to maintaining doses to individuals ALARA, the sum of the doses received by all exposed individuals should also be maintained at the lowest practicable level. It would not be desirable, for example, to hold the highest doses to individuals to some fraction of the applicable limit if this involved exposing additional people and significantly increasing the sum of radiation doses received by all involved individuals. 4.6.3 Two basic assumptions are considered necessary in this program for keeping occupational exposures as far below the specified limits as is reasonably achievable. Those two conditions are management commitment to maintaining exposures as low as is reasonably achievable, and the personnel responsible for radiation protection should be continuously vigilant for means to reduce exposure. 4.6.4 ALARA Policy Statement and Implementation • It is AECOM’s policy to plan and conduct its radiological activities safely and in such a fashion as to protect the health and safety of its employees, subcontractors, members of the public, and the environment. To achieve this, AECOM shall confirm that efforts are taken to reduce radiological exposures and releases to the environment ALARA, taking into account social, technical, economic, practical and public policy considerations. AECOM is committed to implementing a radiological control program that reflects this policy. • To implement this policy, AECOM shall: o Review radiological operations and analyze the hazards; o Develop and implement controls that reduce or eliminate unnecessary dose and keep the necessary doses low and document the controls in the RPP or other work document. o Document areas surveyed for radioactive material and retain record of the survey.

The Committee will also support the development of project or site-specific ALARA goals. 4.6.6 ALARA Goals and Evaluations • ALARA goals shall be established for individuals who may be involved in operations that could result in exposures greater than 100 mrem (1 mSv) from all operations in a calendar year. The Program/Site RSO shall work with the radiation safety committee to establish ALARA goals in conjunction with the Project Manager or Program Manager. The ALARA goals should be: o Based on historical values for this type of work or on estimations of dose and should be modified either up or down depending upon the nature of the work involved. o Approved by the Project Manager or Program Manager and exposed individual’s supervisor. o Periodically evaluated relative to accrued dose received by the worker. o If it is observed that an individual is approaching 100 mrem (1 mSv) for the year and no ALARA goal has been established, then the Program/Site RSO will notify the Business Group RSO of this and provide an ALARA goal. • The License/Program/Site RSO shall: o Conduct and document a post-job review/critique if the program ALARA goal of 0.5 rem or 40 DAC- hours in a year is exceeded. o Notify the Employee if they is approaching his/her ALARA goal; o Complete an ALARA re-evaluation prior to allowing an Employee to exceed an ALARA goal or raising an ALARA goal; o Inform the Business Group RSO of any increased ALARA goals; and o Evaluate and respond (as appropriate) to increasing dose, airborne, or contamination trends and other indicators that could be precursors to unnecessary dose. • An ALARA evaluation (see form S3AM-120-FM1 ALARA Evaluation) is required for individuals or work groups who have an ALARA goal of 500 mrem (5 mSv) or more for a given calendar year.

(Refer to S3AM-209-PR1 Risk Assessment & Management.) The RPP must: • Be prepared by the designated Site RSO or other radiation safety professional, and reviewed by the Business Group RSO or designee; • Address all radiological hazards associated with the identified use of licensed radioactive material, exposure/contact with radioactive material, or exposure to ionizing radiation; • Provide appropriate and applicable training requirements, monitoring procedures, dosimetry requirements, protective equipment requirements, operational safety procedures and limitations for each identified radiological hazard; • Identify specific minimization procedures consistent with AECOM’s ALARA requirements; and • Address storage and transportation issues, security and operator qualification requirements, device maintenance requirements, leak testing requirements, and any other radioactive material license compliance needs when prepared for a radioactive material license. 4.7.7 Radiation Work Permit (RWP) • An RWP is issued for short, non-routine tasks to provide inform Employees of the radiological controls and entry requirements for a specific work activity and is valid only for the duration of the activity. • If RWPs are expected to be used during a project or to implement a specific program, the RPP must define the terms of issuance, approval, and implementation. Generally the RWP is prepared by the Site RSO and approved by the Manager. (Refer to S3AM-120-FM2, Radiation Work Permit.) Employees must be trained on the RWP, read it, and signed-off on it before performing a task described in the RWP 4.7.8 Hazardous Work Permit (HWP) • An HWP is a combination document issued to inform Employees of both radiological and hazardous material exposure and entry requirements for short, non-routine tasks on to provide additional protection under a project/program RPP.

Employees must be trained on the HWP, read it, and signed-off on it before performing a task described in the HWP. 4.8 Considerations for Non-Radiological Hazards. Implementation of a radiation safety control may introduce unintended consequences that may negatively impact the overall safety of the operation. For example: 4.8.1 Excessive protective clothing or equipment used to control dose or personnel contamination events may have deleterious consequences, such as heat stress and ergonomic impacts. 4.8.2 Respirators used to reduce intakes of radionuclides may impair visual acuity and communications capabilities among Employees. 4.8.3 Protective clothing and equipment used to protect Employees from chemical hazards may slow down work, leading to increased worker dose. 4.9 Radiation Protection Standards 4.9.1 The U.S. and Canadian government agencies have established limits on annual radiation exposure for occupationally exposed workers, including exposures to radon (10 CFR 20, SOR-2000/203). 4.9.2 These limits have been shown to prevent deterministic effects of radiation exposure while limiting the probability of stochastic effects. 4.9.3 Additionally AECOM has established its own set of administrative limits to confirm compliance with Federal regulations and to implement the AECOM ALARA philosophy. 4.10 Occupational Dose Limits 4.10.1 Tables 1 and 2 provide the legal U.S. and Canadian dose limits as well as AECOM’s administrative dose limits. 4.10.2 Note that doses from background radiation, therapeutic and diagnostic medical and dental exposures, and those resulting from participation as a subject in medical research programs are not included in dose records or when assessing compliance with the occupational dose limits. 4.11 Occupationally Exposed Minors 4.11.1 AECOM policy is no worker under 18 years of age will be allowed to work on site where there is the potential for exposure to radiation. This requirement is consistent with EM-385-1-1, Section 6E, which does not allow the occupational radiation exposure of minors.

CONTROLLED COPY IS AVAILABLE ON COMPANY INTRANET. 14 of 28 4.12 Embryo/Fetus of a General Employee 4.12.1 A special situation arises when a Radiation Worker or Nuclear Energy Worker becomes pregnant. Under these conditions, radiation exposure could also involve exposure to the embryo or fetus. A number of studies have indicated that the embryo or fetus is more sensitive than the adult, especially during the first trimester of pregnancy. This can be a concern since many users are unaware of their pregnancy during the first month or two of gestation. Hence, the NRC and the CNSC require that all occupationally exposed Employees be instructed in the potential health risks associated with prenatal radiation exposure. 4.12.2 As defined in 10 CFR 20.1003, a “declared pregnant woman” (refer to S3AM-120-FM4, Declaration of Pregnancy) means a woman who has voluntarily informed her employer, in writing, of her pregnancy and the estimated date of conception. The maximum permissible exposure to the fetus of a declared pregnant worker during the gestation period is 10 percent of the NRC’s annual limits or 500 mrem. An effort should be made to avoid substantial variation of uniform monthly exposure rate. There are very few locations within AECOM where radiation levels are high enough that a fetus could potentially receive a dose that approaches these limits. 4.12.3 The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Report No. 116 recommends a monthly equivalent dose limit of 0.05 rem (0.5 mSv) to the embryo/fetus once the pregnancy is known. In view of the NCRP recommendation, any monthly dose of less than 0.1 rem (1 mSv) is not a substantial variation above a uniform monthly dose rate and as such will not require justification (specified in NRC Regulatory Guide 8.13).; however, a monthly dose greater than 0.1 rem (1 mSv) should be justified (specified in NRC Regulatory Guide 8.13) 4.12.4 If a Radiation Worker or Nuclear Energy Worker becomes pregnant, she shall declare her pregnancy in writing. This can be done by email or by letter to the Site RSO applicable, using form S3AM-120-FM4, Declaration of Pregnancy, or the equivalent. It is recommended the Worker’s applicable human resources representative be notified. A member of the Site RSO staff will assess her potential radiation exposure and measures to keep her exposures ALARA and make any appropriate accommodations. (See form S3AM-120-FM5, Embryo/Fetus Initial Dose Calculations.) Early declaration of a pregnancy is encouraged and confidentiality is maintained at all times. 4.12.5 AECOM’s administrative limit of 500 mrem (5 mSv) based on CNSC regulations. If notification of a pregnancy is not made in writing, the radiation exposure limits remain at the occupational limits of 5 rem (50 mSv) per year. An individual may also “un-declare” her pregnancy in writing at any time (using form S3AM-120-FM6, Withdrawal of Declaration of Pregnancy, or the equivalent). 4.13 Planned Special Exposures (PSE) 4.13.1 PSE are not practiced at AECOM. 4.14 Means of Exposure Control 4.14.1 Means of controlling Employee exposures for a project or program shall be provided in the applicable RPP. 4.14.2 There are three basic ways in which Employees can control exposure to a radioactive source: limit exposure time, increase their distance from the source, and the interposition of a shielding material. 4.14.3 These concepts are thoroughly presented in AECOM radiation safety training but should also be continuously reinforced through daily or weekly radiation safety briefings. AECOM projects shall use postings, labels, project/task plans, “dry-runs,” engineering controls, and PPE as appropriate to limit occupational exposures. 4.15 Postings 4.15.1 Access to radioactive materials is controlled by posting areas containing radiation fields, radioactive materials, and/or radioactive contamination. 4.15.2 AECOM’s policy shall be to post areas as required below based on U.S. radiation protection regulations (10 CFR 20).

The three blades and the central disk of the tri-foil symbol shall be: • Magenta or black; and • Located on a yellow background 4.15.5 Postings shall be displayed at the boundary of and at every point of access to an area, room or enclosure and bare the applicable words below. 4.15.6 Signs and postings should be removed by health physics only and only when conditions no longer warrant that posting. 4.15.7 Where physical barriers do not exist, pole barriers shall be erected using yellow and magenta or yellow and black rope. 4.15.8 Postings shall include the following language: • “Caution (or Danger) Contamination Area” – Any area where removable contamination levels exceed or are likely to exceed those specified in Table 3 (from 10 CFR 835, Appendix D). • “Caution (or Danger) Radiation Area” – Any area, accessible to individuals, in which radiation levels could result in an individual receiving a dose equivalent in excess of 5 mrem in 1 hour at 30 centimeters from the source of radiation or from any surface that the radiation penetrates (i.e., dose rates in the area exceed 5 mrem/hr or 50 µSv/hr). • “Caution (or Danger) High Radiation Area” – Any area, accessible to individuals, in which radiation levels could result in an individual receiving a dose equivalent in excess of 100 mrem in 1 hour at 30 centimeters from the source of radiation or from any surface that the radiation penetrates (i.e., dose rates in the exceed 100 mrem/hr or 1.0 mSv/hr). • “Caution (or Danger) Very High Radiation Area” – Very high radiation area means an area, accessible to individuals, in which radiation levels from radiation sources external to the body could result in an individual receiving an absorbed dose in excess of 500 rads (5 grays) in 1 hour at 1 meter from a radiation source or 1 meter from any surface that the radiation penetrates (i.e., dose rates exceed 500 rads/hr or 5 Gy/hr). No AECOM personnel shall have access to a Very High Radiation Area without written approve from the Site RSO. • “Caution (or Danger) Airborne Radioactivity Area” – Any area, accessible to individuals in which airborne radioactivity levels could result in an individual being exposed to a concentration in excess of the following concentrations. Work in an Airborne Radioactivity Area must be conducted in accordance with a Respiratory Protection Program approved by the Site RSO or designee. o In excess of the DAC specified in appendix B, to 10 CFR 20.1001-20.2401, 10 CFR 835 or o To such a degree that an individual present in the area without respiratory protective equipment could exceed, during the hours an individual is present in a week, an intake of 0.6 percent of the ALI or 12 DAC-hours. 4.15.9 The following postings are required only on Canadian project sites (SOR-2000/203): • “RAYONNEMENT-DANGER-RADIATION” – when there is a radioactive nuclear substance in a quantity greater than 100 times its exemption quantity in the area, room or enclosure or there is a reasonable probability that a person in the area, room or enclosure will be exposed to an effective dose rate greater than 2.5 mrem/hr (25 µSv/hr).

Where surface contamination by both alpha- and beta-gamma- emitting nuclides exists, the limits established for alpha- and beta-gamma-emitting nuclides apply independently. 2As used in this table, dpm (disintegrations per minute) means the rate of emission by radioactive material as determined by correcting the counts per minute observed by an appropriate detector for background, efficiency, and geometric factors associated with the instrumentation. 3The levels may be averaged over one square meter provided the maximum surface activity in any area of 100 cm2is less than three times the value specified. For purposes of averaging, any square meter of surface shall be considered to be above the surface contamination value if: (1) From measurements of a representative number of sections it is determined that the average contamination level exceeds the applicable value; or (2) it is determined that the sum of the activity of all isolated spots or particles in any 100 cm2area exceeds three times the applicable value. 4The amount of removable radioactive material per 100 cm2of surface area should be determined by swiping the area with dry filter or soft absorbent paper, applying moderate pressure, and then assessing the amount of radioactive material on the swipe with an appropriate instrument of known efficiency. (Note—The use of dry material may not be appropriate for tritium.) When removable contamination on objects of surface area less than 100 cm2is determined, the activity per unit area shall be based on the actual area and the entire surface shall be wiped. It is not necessary to use swiping techniques to measure removable contamination levels if direct scan surveys indicate that the total residual surface contamination levels are within the limits for removable contamination. 5This category of radionuclides includes mixed fission products, including the Sr-90 which is present in them. It does not apply to Sr- 90 which has been separated from the other fission products or mixtures where the Sr-90 has been enriched. 6Tritium contamination may diffuse into the volume or matrix of materials. Evaluation of surface contamination shall consider the extent to which such contamination may migrate to the surface in order to confirm the surface contamination value provided in this appendix is not exceeded. Once this contamination migrates to the surface, it may be removable, not fixed; therefore, a “Total” value does not apply. In certain cases, a “Total” value of 10,000 dpm/100 cm2may be applicable either to metals, of the types which form insoluble special tritium compounds that have been exposed to tritium; or to bulk materials to which particles of insoluble special tritium compound are fixed to a surface. 7These limits only apply to the alpha emitters within the respective decay series. 4.16 Records of internal and external dose Forever Site RSO Records for Planned Special Forever Site RSO Exposures Records of Individual Monitoring Forever Site RSO results Records of doses to individual Forever Site RSO members of the public Until License is terminated by Records of Waste Disposal Site RSO or Project File Agency Radiation (S3AM-120-PR1) Revision 0 March 1, 2016 PRINTED COPIES ARE UNCONTROLLED.

A general rule of thumb by the American Heart Association is that it should take no longer than 3 minutes to retrieve an AED and return to the victim. The AED should be in an easily accessible position with the location well-communicated to all staff. 4.6.5 In order to ensure readiness for use and integrity of the device, AEDs shall be inspected after use and on a monthly basis, and maintained, cleaned and tested according to manufacturer’s specifications. • Check equipment, supplies, accessories and spares for quantities, performance, expiration dates and defects. Additional items that should be stored and accessible with the AED: o Simplified written directions for CPR and the use of the AED. o Non-latex protective gloves (several pairs in various sizes). o Breathing barrier (CPR) o Disposable razor to shave chest hair if necessary. o Biohazard clean-up kit with two biohazard disposal bags. o Absorbent towels. • AEDs shall be serviced according the manufacturer’s specifications. • After-use maintenance shall be performed according to manufacturer’s specifications before it is returned to service. • Inspections, cleaning, maintenance, tests and results shall be documented on S3NA-012-FM1 First Aid Kit / AED Inventory and Inspection form. • All documentation (e.g. inspections, service records, etc.) will be delivered to the Designated Individual and maintained in the applicable project/ location files. 4.6.6 AEDs shall only be used by individuals with current and proper training. 4.6.7 Each location that has an AED will incorporate AED procedures into its location specific emergency response plan. Refer to S3NA-010-PR1 Emergency Response Planning. 4.6.8 AEDs shall be used in conjunction with CPR according to training and the equipment’s operator directions when a victim is unresponsive and not breathing. 4.6.9 AEDs shall be applied to a victim and operated by a First Aid Provider in accordance with training and the equipment’s instructions. • Once the AED is turned on, it coaches the user through the steps for use. AEDs are completely safe. The device gives its users step-by-step instructions on what to do in an emergency situation and will only deliver a shock if the heart rhythm can be corrected by defibrillation. 4.6.10 Once an AED has been applied to a victim, it shall not be removed or turned off even if the device advises ‘No Shock’. The AED will continue background monitoring of the victim’s heart rhythm and alert the First Aid Provider(s) if a shock is required. The AED shall only be turned off or removed upon direction of the device itself, EMS personnel or higher medical authority.

Page 4 of 7 4.2.3 Random and Annual Testing - Employees may be subject to random drug and/or alcohol testing in accordance with federal, state and local laws. In addition, employees may be subject to random or annual drug tests to meet contract requirements. Selections for random testing will be made by the Substance Abuse Program Administer or a Certified Third Party Administrator using employee identification numbers and a random selection process. They will be unannounced and once selected for testing, an individual may not be waived from the testing process. Employees will be notified to report for random tests at a time when they should be able to stop working and report immediately to the collection site. Failure to report for a test promptly when instructed to do so may be considered a refusal to test. Employees who may be required to submit to random or annual tests will be so notified at the time that they are hired into a covered position, when they transfer into such a position, or when random or scheduled testing becomes applicable to their position. 4.2.4 Reasonable Suspicion Testing - Employees are subject to drug and/or alcohol testing whenever AECOM supervision has reason to believe that the employee has violated this policy and procedure. Requests for tests will be based upon contemporaneous, articulable observations from supervisors suggesting that the employee may be under the influence of illegal drugs, controlled substances, or alcohol. Examples of observations that may lead to a test can include the employee’s appearance, behavior, speech, body odors, absenteeism, job performance, tardiness, etc. Whenever possible, observations will be documented and reviewed by HR before the individual is asked to submit to a test. An employee asked to take a drug and/or alcohol test will be suspended without pay until test results are received. They may use Paid Time Off (PTO) time during this period. An employee who has negative test results will be returned to work status and the employee will then be paid or have their PTO restored for any lost time during that period. 4.2.5 Post Incident/Accident Testing - Employees are subject to drug and alcohol testing in accordance with state / provincial / territorial and local law whenever: An employee sustained or caused an injury necessitating off-site medical treatment; They have caused or contributed to an accident that results in property damage estimated (including to Company vehicles or equipment) of $2,500 or more (a lower cost of damage requiring testing may be identified in Business Group specific programs); In either of these instances, the investigation and substance abuse testing must take place immediately following the incident, except that no investigation or request for test will delay the provision of urgent medical care to any person in need of assistance. Employees will not be allowed to return to work until a negative drug/alcohol test result is received. 4.2.6 Return-to-Work and Follow-up Testing - Employees who test positive for drugs or alcohol or who have otherwise violated this Policy and Procedure are subject to discipline, up to and including discharge. Depending on the circumstances, the Company may offer an employee who violates this Policy and Procedure the opportunity to seek assistance in lieu of termination through the Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”) or another approved counseling program. Employees offered this opportunity will be required to be evaluated by a substance abuse professional, and to complete any course of education or treatment prescribed before returning to work. In addition, employees must have a negative drug/alcohol test prior to their return to work and follow-up drug and/or alcohol testing may be required as a condition of continued employment, for a period of up to two years following the return to work. If subject to a client-specific substance abuse policy, employees who have had a positive test result will not be permitted to return to work on the client site or facility. Return-to-Work Agreements will be tailored to the individual’s circumstances and job responsibilities.

Page 5 of 7 4.3 Collection and Testing 4.3.1 Consent and Refusals to Test: No sample will be collected, or test conducted on any sample, without the consent of the person being tested. However, a refusal to submit to a test will be treated as an admission of a policy violation and will usually result in termination of employment. Job applicants who refuse a test will have their job offers withdrawn. Attempts to tamper with, substitute, adulterate, dilute or otherwise falsify a test sample are considered refusals to submit to a test, as is a refusal to accept transportation to the testing facility, failure to appear at the testing location promptly after being asked to submit to a test, or other conduct that has the effect of frustrating the testing process. AECOM will pay the costs of all drug and/or alcohol tests it requires. 4.3.2 Test Methods: Drug test samples may include urine, hair, swab or saliva (oral fluids). All drug test samples will be screened and all presumptive positive drug tests will be confirmed using gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry (GC/MS) (or an equally accurate methodology). Drug tests will be performed by a laboratory certified by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration for federal workplace testing, or as required by the applicable jurisdiction. Breath, blood, swab or urine tests may be used to detect the presence of alcohol. An alcohol test will be considered positive if it shows the presence of .04 percent or more alcohol in a person’s system. Dilute or invalid results will require a recollection, and the Company may require the individual to provide an alternative test specimen as may be available and consistent with the underlying purpose of the test. 4.3.3 Collection and Chain-of-Custody: Persons being tested will be asked to provide a test sample to a trained collector. Procedures for the collection of specimens will allow for reasonable individual privacy. Urine specimens will be tested for temperature, and may be subject to other validation procedures as appropriate. The collector and the person being tested will follow chain-of-custody procedures for specimens at all times. Tests will seek only information about the presence of drugs and alcohol in an individual’s specimen, and will not test for any medical condition. 4.3.4 Notification and Medical Review: Any individual whose test sample is confirmed positive for a drug or drugs will be contacted by a Medical Review Officer (“MRO”) (a medical professional with an expertise in toxicology) and offered an opportunity to explain in confidence any legitimate reasons he or she may have that would explain the positive test (such as, for example, evidence that the individual holds a prescription for the substance detected). The MRO may also review suspected adulterated, substituted, and dilute specimens and make determinations about their validity. If the individual provides an explanation acceptable to the MRO that a drug test result is due to factors other than the consumption of illegal drugs, the MRO will order the positive test result to be disregarded and will report the test as negative to AECOM. Otherwise, the MRO will verify the test as positive and report that test result. 4.3.5 Right to Explain and Retest: Within three working days after notice of a verified positive drug or alcohol test result on a confirmatory test conducted under this Policy, the tested individual may submit information to the MRO to explain the positive result. An individual who tests positive for drugs also may ask to have his or her remaining or split test sample sent to an independent certified laboratory for a second confirmatory test, at the individual’s expense, and provided that a written request is made within five business days of the date the individual of the positive test result. AECOM will notify the original testing laboratory that the employee or applicant has requested that the laboratory conduct a confirmatory retest or arrange for transfer of the sample to the laboratory selected by the individual to perform the confirmatory retest. Tested individuals will be required to pay the testing laboratory for any confirmatory retest they request. AECOM may suspend, transfer, or take other appropriate employment action against an employee pending the results of any such re-test. However, if the re-test fails to confirm as positive the individual will be reimbursed for the cost of the re-test and the prior test results disregarded.

Page 6 of 7 4.3.6 The Company will provide drug and alcohol tests results to candidates and employees automatically, where state law so requires, and otherwise upon written request as may be required by law. 4.4 Inspections 4.4.1 The Company reserves the right to inspect and search all portions of its premises for drugs and other contraband. All employees, contract workers, and visitors may be asked to cooperate in inspections of their persons, work areas, and property brought on site in connection with an inspection. Employees who refuse to cooperate in any such inspections are subject to discipline, up to and including discharge. 4.5 Confidentiality 4.5.1 Information and records relating to drug screen test results, drug and alcohol dependencies and medical information shared with the Company in the course of administering this Policy and Procedure shall be treated as confidential and shared with HR and managers on a need-to-know basis. Information will not be released to third parties except with the consent of the individual or where relevant to a grievance, charge, claim, or other legal proceeding initiated by or on behalf of an employee or applicant, or as may be required by law or legal process. 4.6 Employee Assistance Program and Drug Free Awareness 4.6.1 Illegal drug use and alcohol misuse result in a number of adverse health and safety consequences. Information about those consequences and source of help for drug/alcohol problems is available from HR representatives who can also refer employees to the EAP for assistance with drug/alcohol related problems. Information about the EAP program is available on the Company intranet. 4.6.2 The Company will provide support to employees who voluntarily seek help for drug or alcohol problems. Depending upon the circumstances, the employee may be referred for evaluation and allowed to use accrued paid time off or be placed on leave as may be necessary to complete any prescribed education and/or treatment. Employees also may be required to document that they are successfully following a prescribed education and/or treatment plan and pass return to duty and follow-up drug and/or alcohol testing. A request for assistance will be considered voluntary only if made before the employee becomes subject to disciplinary action for violating this or another Company policy, and cannot excuse substandard performance, so AECOM encourages employees who may need assistance to seek it promptly: 4.6.3 In conjunction with the EAP, the Company will promote a drug-free awareness program to inform employees about: The dangers of substance abuse in the workplace. Available counseling, rehabilitation, and EAPs (both for self-referral or supervisory referral). The penalties that may be imposed for violations of this procedure.
