a.Excess oxygen only, no testing needed
b.High humidity; wear a raincoat
c.Toxic/flammable gases (hydrogen sulfide, methane) and oxygen deficiency; test the atmosphere and ventilate before and during entry
d.Noise; wear earplugs
Giải thích
A sewer is a permit-required confined space where hydrogen sulfide, methane, and oxygen deficiency can be immediately dangerous, so the atmosphere must be tested for oxygen, flammables, and toxics and the space ventilated before and continuously during entry. An attendant, retrieval equipment, and a permit are required. Oxygen must be between 19.5 and 23.5 percent.
