December 18 Briefs Excerpts:

Notable Event Notice: Dec. 16 Failure to Comply with Posted Signs
On Dec. 16, a GERT-trained subcontractor moved a Radiation Control group Controlled Area sign that was hanging on a fixed ladder to gain access to the area located directly above the Vertical Test Area. The signage was attached to the ladder by a magenta and yellow bungee cord, but the contractor did not pay attention to verbiage on the sign.

This area had been posted on Friday, Dec. 13, as the Superconducting Radiofrequency (SRF) group was scheduled to begin testing a cavity with a 1 Watt amplifier over the weekend. The contractors performed a walk-through of the site on Friday; however, they failed to take a look at this particular area.

Signs are posted to communicate important safety information. Please read and obey posted signs. If you are ever confronted with a sign that you question or don't understand, call the phone number on the sign to seek clarification. If a phone number isn’t listed on the sign, call the office, work group or person responsible for the sign. If you still have unresolved questions or concerns, contact your division safety officer or the safety warden for the area where the sign is posted. For more information, see the All-Staff Memo: https://www.jlab.org/memo/notable-event-notice-dec-16-failure-comply-posted-signs
