?? Demolition Done Right: Safe, Clean, and Sustainable! ?? Demolition is more than breaking down bridges and railroads—it's about doing it safely and responsibly to protect workers, communities, and the environment. Here's how we prioritize safety and sustainability: ?? Safety First: ? Suit up with proper PPE: hard hats, eye protection, gloves, and more. ? Identify and safely handle hazardous materials like asbestos and lead paint. ? Operate equipment with care—trained personnel only! ??? Dust & Air Quality: ? Suppress dust with misting and water sprays. ? Keep the air safe for everyone by monitoring and using respirators when needed. ?? Environmental Protection: ? Sort and recycle demolition waste; hazardous materials get special care! ? Shield soil and water with barriers and proper containment. ? Reduce noise and erosion impacts to protect wildlife and communities. By combining robust safety protocols with environmental compliance, we ensure demolition is a step forward—not backward. Let’s build a safer, greener future! ?? #Construction #Demolition #SafetyFirst #Sustainability

Safety Zone: Toolbox Talk for Fatigue Fatigue is one of the leading causes of injury in the workplace. Fatigue is the condition of being physically or mentally tired or exhausted. Extreme fatigue can lead to uncontrolled and involuntary shutdown of the brain. When fatigue occurs, you will make errors in judgment which can cause hazardous safety concerns for both you and your team. Barletta Safety Site Officers will continue to deliver this Toolbox Talk to Barletta project locations throughout the week.

Safety Zone: Toolbox Talk for Trenching and Excavation Safety OSHA trench and excavation safety standards concentrate on safe access and routine inspections. Safe access to all excavation exits and entrances is crucial to maintaining the safety of all crew members on each job site. Trench inspections help identify and eliminate excavation hazards and provide workers the opportunity to note any existing or predictable dangerous working conditions. Barletta Safety Site Officers will continue to deliver this Toolbox Talk to Barletta project locations throughout the week.

The Environmental Compliance Committee has selected the Codman Yard Improvements Project as November’s Project of the Month for Environmental Excellence! ?? This project may have a tight footprint, but we’re making every square foot count! Through calculated planning and innovative construction techniques, we’re enhancing rail infrastructure while prioritizing sustainable practices. From reducing material waste to using eco-conscious practices like wheel washing, we’re committed to keeping our environmental impact as small as possible. This specific job site also uses portable environmental monitors to ensure that construction emissions, such as dust, don't reach our friendly neighbors! Stay tuned for updates as we work to build a greener future for our railways! ?? #CodmanYard #EnvironmentalProject #SustainableConstruction #GreenRailway

Happy Halloween from the entire Barletta family! Have a sweet and safe holiday!

Safety Zone: Toolbox Talk for Safety Data Sheets To ensure proper chemical safety in the workplace, information about the identities and hazards of all chemicals must be made available and written clearly for all employees. As part of OSHA’s Standard, chemical manufacturers and importers are required to evaluate the hazards of the chemicals they produce or import and prepare labels and safety data sheets to convey all hazard information. #OSHA #ChemicalSafety #SafetyZone
