  15. Trench Excavation A narrow excavation (in relation to its length). In general the depth is greater than the width, but the width of a trench (measured at its bottom) is not greater than 15 feet. Susan Harwood Program Grant – The University of T exas at Arlington

  16. General Requirem ent for Protection Each employee in an excavation five feet deep or deeper shall be protected from cave-ins by an adequate protective system, unless the excavation is made entirely in stable rock. Susan Harwood Program Grant – The University of T exas at Arlington

  17. Under 5 Feet Under 5 feet, the requirement for a protective system is a judgment call for the “Competent Person.” Susan Harwood Program Grant – The University of T exas at Arlington

  18. Com petent Person Means “… one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to the employees and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.” Susan Harwood Program Grant – The University of T exas at Arlington

  21. Training Requirem ents for the Com petent Person In the preamble to the Standard, OSHA says that, “… for the purposes of this standard, one must have had specific training in and be knowledgeable about soils analysis, the use of protective systems, and the requirements of the standard. One who does not have such training or knowledge cannot possibly be capable of recognizing existing and predictable hazards in excavation work or taking prompt corrective measures.” Susan Harwood Program Grant – The University of T exas at Arlington
