A KERAMIDA Health and Safety Project Manager was on-site for an estimated period of 4-6 weeks. The Project Manager was responsible for developing a plan of completion and direction for the site EHS, Engineering, Management, Maintenance and other staff members involved with the project. In addition to providing assistance and advice in the writing and revision of programs and procedures, reviewing documents and overall project management, KERAMIDA provided the following:
