The Excavation Safety Permit is vital for any ground-disturbing activities, including digging, trenching, and earth removal. This permit outlines the necessary precautions to prevent accidents such as cave-ins, equipment rollovers, and utility strikes. It mandates soil analysis, protective systems for trench stability, and clear marking of underground utilities. Additionally, it requires that all personnel on site are trained in excavation safety procedures and equipped with the appropriate personal protective equipment. By enforcing these safety measures, the Excavation Safety Permit helps ensure that excavation sites are secure, compliant with regulations, and safe for all workers involved.

Each permit features a dual sheet carbonless form, allowing site supervision to maintain a copy of the permit for work in progress while sheet a second sheet is posted in the field. Upon completion, sheet 2 is returned to site supervision to complete the permit cycle.
