A. Use this worksheet as a guide to conduct a survey of the instructional facilities. Answer each of the listed questions by circling the answer that applies to the condition at the facility. "Y" indicates "Yes," "N" indicates "No," and "N/A" indicates "Not Applicable." If any of the questions are answered "N" for "No," it is the sign of a condition that may indicate a possible hazard. For every " N" marked, write a brief description of the deficient condition observed in the space provided at the end of the worksheet.
NOTE: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and other regulatory agencies specify that persons exposed to noise levels of 85 dBA over an eight-hour period must wear hearing protection, and be provided with and trained in the use of hearing protection. In order to provide a margin of safety and simplify the evaluation process, any equipment or operation found to expose persons to a noise level of 85 dBA or above over any time period should be considered a hazard, and hearing protection should be required.
AUTHORITY NOTE: Promulgated in accordance with R.S. 17:6(A)(10).
