3.1 Location
Health and Safety Plan
Gresham's Lake Sire
Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina
3.0 SITE LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
The Gresham's Lake Site is located on Gresham's Lake Road approximately 0.2 miles west of the
intersection of Gresham's Lake Road and U.S. Highway 1 (Capital Boulevard) in Raleigh, Wake County,
North Carolina. Figure I depicts the site location on the United States Geologic Survey 7.5 Minute
Topographic Map for the Wake Forest, N.C. Quadrangle (1987). The geographic coordinates for the
approximate center of the site are 35° 53' 7.0" N latitude and 78° 34' 37.0" W longitude. Proceeding west
from Capital Boulevard onto Gresham's Lake Road for approximately 0.2 miles accesses the Site. The
Site consists of a small industrial park on the outskirts of northeastern Raleigh.
3.2 Site Description
Individual properties that comprise the Site include: (I) 3220 Northside Drive, Able Manufacturing
Company; (2) 3010 Gresham's Lake Road, Rea Construction Company; (3) 3219 Northside Drive, Edwin
& Burgunde Winz property; (4) 3200 Northside Drive, Billings and Garrett Utility Contractors; and (5)
property between 3220 Northside Drive (Able Manufacturing) and Rea Construction.
From 1970 until 1996, the NCDOT tested asphalt at a laboratory on the Rea Construction Company
property using chlorinated solvents such as 1, 1, I-trichloroethane (I, I, 1-TCA), trichloroethylene (TCE),
and carbon tetrachloride
The Able Manufacturing Company operated a metal fabricating facility from 1989 until the .company
closed the facility in 1993. Prior to Abie's purchase of the property, the site was occupied by South State
Engineering, a tool and die manufacturer that operated at the site from the late 1970's until 1989.
Chlorinated solvents were reportedly used at the facility in the past. A former employee of both South
State and Able reported that trichloroethylene was used at the site, although it was his belief that its use
was "limited".
The Rea Construction facility, along with the Billings & Garrett site, have additionally operated
Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) for the storage of petroleum products. Rea Construction employed
four USTs ranging in size from 500 to 20,000 gallons for storage of gasoline and diesel fuel from 1971
to 1987. These USTs were reportedly removed on May 7, 1987 and no releases of product were reported
at the time the USTs were removed. Billings & Garrett reportedly operated five USTs ranging in size
from 4,000 to 10,000 gallons for storage of gasoline and diesel fuel from 1978 to 1991. These USTs
were reportedly removed on March 31, 1991 and no residual contamination was reported during closure.
The former Halliburton Industrial Services site had previously employed Above Ground Storage Tanks
(ASTs) from the mid-1970s until approximately 1990. The sizes of the ASTs are unknown but they
reportedly stored diesel fuel, waste oil, phosphoric acid, and hydrochloric acid.

4.0 HAZARD ASSESSMENT
4.1 Waste Description/Characterization
The following chemical information is presented in order to identify the types of materials that may be
encountered at the Gresham's Lake Site. Detailed information on these materials was obtained from:
ACGIH, Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices for 1995-96.
Chemical Data Sheets.
NIOSH Pocket Guide to Chemical Hazards -1995.
The following is a list of chemicals and compounds that are potentially found on site. This list was
compiled based on information obtained from review of previous environmental assessments at properties
that comprise the Site. Atmospheric monitoring can be conducted to determined the potential exposure
to these chemicals. There are published exposure limits for most of these chemicals and they can be
detected by a direct-reading monitoring instrument. It is believed that protection of on-site personnel can
be achieved by conducting environmental monitoring and applying conservative action limits. Chemical
Data Sheets for each compound listed below, providing information such a, the chemical's characteristics,
health hazards, protection, exposure limits, and first aid procedures are presented in Appendix A. These

4.2.1 Chemical Hazards
Health and Safety Plan
Gresham ·s Lake Site
Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina
The contaminants of concern at the sites can affect the body if they are inhaled, come in contact with the
eyes or skin, or are ingested. These compounds may be released during the intrusive investigation and
sampling activities. The primary concern is for skin exposure to contaminated soils, groundwater and
surface waters, and potential inhalation of organic vapors or dust released during soil intrnsive activities.
Organic vapors may also be released during surface and groundwater sampling.
Atmospheric monitoring will be conducted during all phases of on-site intrusive field activities and all
sampling activities to determine the need for upgrading to appropriate levels of respiratory protection,
as documented in Section 9.2. The activities during which monitoring will be conducted include soil-gas
surveying, direct push sampling, surface (storm) water and sediment sampling, surface soil sampling,
and monitoring well installation and sampling. Exposure by skin absorption is a low to moderate
possibility, but can be prevented by use of proper protective equipment and good hygiene practices.
Table 4-1 presents exposure levels for contaminants of concern.
4.2.2 Physical Hazards
Primary physical hazards at the site are those associated with hand augering, and overhead hazards from
heavy equipment. Hazards that could be encountered during subsurface activities include falls and trips,
injury from lifting heavy objects, eye injuries, head injuries, and pinched or crushed hands and feet.
There is a potential for explosive concentrations of vapors from flammable liquids in subsurface soils
or volatile organic compounds associated with exposed wastes. Incidents of spontaneous combustion
and explosions resulting from the compaction and covering of wastes have been reported. Also see
Section 11.3 Safe Work Practices.
The majority of the work activities are expected to occur during colder months. There is potential for
workers on-site to be affected by cold exposure. The SSO will monitor for cold exposure, or heat stress
if appropriate, in accordance with Section 12.6 of this HASP.
There is potential for buried utilities or overhead electrical lines to be present at the Earth Tech work
areas. Earth Tech will seek assistance from the designated Site personnel to obtain facility records
pertaining to potential buried utilities, contact local utilites companies, and contact local utility locator
company to identify utilities in the Earth Tech work areas to identify and avoid contact with utilities. The
potential for cutting an underground line may exist. If this happens, soil intrnsive activities will be halted
and the REHSM will be notified.
If dusty conditions exist during soil boring activities, the work zone area will be kept wet by spraying the
work zone (WZ) with water to provide dust control. If airborne dust is not controlled, continuous
monitoring with a Mini-Ram or similar instrument will be conducted.
Hearing protection is be worn by all personnel within 50 feet of heavy equipment, including the drill rig .

Health and Safety Plan
Gresham's Lnke Site
Raleigh, Wake Co11nty, North Carolina
Soil, sediment, and surface water sampling activities present the potential for slips and falls associated
with wet surfaces and soft unstable sediment surfaces. Personnel should be aware of these potential
hazards. General housekeeping should be maintained in the work areas.
4.2.3 Additional Precautions
Additional precautions have not been identified.
4.2.4 Natural Hazards
Natural hazards such as weather, poisonous plants, bites from poisonous or disease-carrying animals and
insects (i.e., snakes, ticks), cannot always be avoided. Refer to Section 12.0 for precautions and
emergency procedures.
4.2.5 Confined Space Entrv
Confined space entry is not anticipated and is, therefore, not addressed in this HASP. If confined space
entry is necessary, work will be halted and the REHSM will be notified.
4.2.6 Spill Containment
Field activities associated with this site are unlikely to require spill containment and are, therefore, not
addressed in this HASP .

6.0 MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM
All Earth Tech personnel and subcontractors performing field work at the Gresham's Lake Industrial Park
Site will be required to have passed a pre-assignment and/or periodic medical examination that is
consistent with 29 CFR 1910.120(f). Medical examinations shall be performed by or under the
supervision of a licensed physician, preferably one knowledgeable in occupational medicine. A release
for work will be confirmed by the REHSM before an employee can begin hazardous site activities.
The REHSM, in consultation with the company physician and CEHSD, may require additional medical
testing if an overt exposure or accident occurs, or if other site conditions warrant further_ medical
surveillance.
Contractors/subcontractors will maintain the medical records for their own employees, but shall also
provide the SSO with written documentation certifying that each employee at the site has met the
requirements of the Medical Surveillance Program. This documentation will be provided before the first
day of work for each employee assigned to the site. The pre-assignment and annual examinations are
essentially the same in content and are the examining physician's discretion but generally include:
An updated medical and occupational history
A screening physical examination
Blood and urine laboratory tests
Chest X-ray
Electrocardiogram
Pulmonary function tests
Audiometry
Visual acuity test
At the end of employment or if deemed necessary after a employee's involvement in project-specific site
work, he/she may have to complete a medical examination. This examination may be limited to
obtaining an internal medical history of the period since the last full examination (consisting of medical
history, physician examination, and laboratory tests). Appendix D contains a summary of the medical
monitoring and training history of all Earth Tech personnel anticipated to work at the Site.
Earth Tech is committed to maintaining a drug and alcohol-free work environment which ensures the
safety, health, and efficient performance of all employees. All Earth Tech personnel are required to
obtain a pre-employment drug test and may be tested at any time for reasonable cause or post-accident.
6.1 Job Exposure Report
A Job Exposure Report must be completed at the end of the project for each Earth Tech employee who
participated in on-site field activities. The Job Exposure Report must be submitted to the REHSM who
will route it to the employee's medical record .

7.0 SITE CONTROL MEASURES
The purpose of the site control measures discussed in this section is to maintain order at the sites and to
minimize chemical and physical hazards to on-site personnel, visitors, and the public. Site control zones
will include an exclusion zone (EZ), a contamination reduction zone (CRZ), and a support zone (SZ).
In addition, temporary activity-specific work zones (WZ) will be established at specific locations.
7.1 Site Access
The site is not fully enclosed by a fence or other restrictive barrier. The SSO, with guidance from Site
personnel, will have the responsibility to limit site access to those authorized visitors who meet the
requirements of this HASP. The entire industrial park area covered by this HASP is about 50 acres. Site
control measures in this section will pertain to each work zone, roughly defined by an approximately 150
diameter radius around each individual work activity location.
7 .2 Exclusion Zone
The EZ is the area containing or suspected of containing contaminated materials. Since investigation
activities will be conducted throughout the project site, each investigative area boundary shall be
delineated as the EZ.
• 7.2.1 Work Zones
•
Temporary activity-specific WZ s shall be established at each sampling activity. While completing soil
borings and surface water sampling the WZ shall be established and marked by safety rope or tape, where
practical. The WZ shall be a radius large enough to encompass necessaiy equipment and allow sufficient
space for safe work practices. A CRZ shall be placed al the WZ perimeter at an upwind location. A
portable eye wash unit, fire extinguisher, towels, plastic garbage bags, decontamination supplies, and a
first aid kit (sufficient to accommodate the field team) shall be placed in this CRZ. These supplies may
be located in the vehicle parked adjacent to the WZ, and stored in a manner readily accessible to site
workers.
A temporary WZ shall be established at each sampling location where surface soil samples are to be
collected. These WZ areas shall be established by laying about 5 square feet of plastic sheeting next to
the sampling location for the placement of equipment and supplies. A portable eye wash, first aid kit
(sufficient to accommodate the field team), towels, plastic garbage bags, fire extinguisher, and
decontamination supplies are also required in this area, which may be located in the truck.
7.3 Personnel Decontamination
Personnel decontamination areas will be established on-site. Personnel will decontaminate and/or
dispose of soiled protective clothing (i.e., disposable boots and gloves, etc.) in the CRZ established next
to the temporary WZ. A fixed personnel decontamination area will be established adjacent to the fixed

equipment decontamination pad where, after equipment decontamination, personnel can decontaminate
and dispose of protective clothing and equipment before exiting the EZ. Refer to Section 10 for further
decontamination procedures.
7.4 Equipment Decontamination Station
Earth Tech will establish an on-site, temporary equipment decontamination station at a location approved
by Site personnel. The station will be constructed of heavy plastic and properly bermcd to prevent
discharge of rinseate water. Equipment will be properly decontaminated by steam cleaning or water
washing in this area.
7.5 Support Zone
The SZ is considered the uncontaminated area and will be identified by the SSO before field activities
begin. It will contain the Command Post which will provide for team communications and emergency
response. A mobile telephone will be located in this area. Appropriate sanitary facilities, safety, medical,
and support equipment will be identified. No potentially contaminated personnel or materials are allowed
in the SZ except for appropriately packaged/decontaminated and labeled samples.
7 .6 Site Visitors
Visitors are required to report to the SSO prior to accessing the individual sampling sites, although none
are anticipated. The SSO will document decisions regarding their access to the sites. If granted limited
access, visitors must provide the SSO with documented compliance with Section 5.0 of this HASP,
comply with other applicable sections, and satisfy additional conditions placed on them as deemed
appropriate by the SSO to ensure visitor safety. Visitors must sign in and out daily under the SSO's
direction for the duration of their approved visit. Under no circumstances will visitors be allowed to
interfere with, or participate in operations within the scope of the field investigation. Appropriately
trained personnel shall escort all visitors throughout the Site.
As needed, the SSO will establish a designated Level D area as an observation point during intrusive
activities. This designated area will be located to offer proximate viewing of site operations, and
positioned such that visitors in no way may inhibit site access, logistics, or general operations. Further,
the SSO will locate the viewing areas such that visitors present are at minimal risk of exposure to site
hazards .

Heart rate (HR) shall be measured by the pulse for 30 seconds as early as possible in the resting
period. The HR at the beginning of the rest period should not exceed 110 beats/minute. If the
HR is higher, the next work period should be shortened by 10 minutes (or 33 percent), while the
length of rest period stays the same. If the pulse rate is I 00 beats/minute at the beginning of the
next rest period, the following work cycle should be shortened by 33 percent. The length of the
initial work period will be determined by using the table below.

Body temperature shall be measured orally with a clinical thermometer as early as possible in the
resting period. Oral Temperature (OT) at the beginning of the rest period should not exceed 99°F.
If it does, the next work period should be shortened by 10 minutes (or 33 percent), while the
length of the rest period stays the same. However, if the oral temperature exceeds 99.7°F at the
beginning of the next rest period, the following work cycle shall be further shortened by 33
percent. OT should be measured at the end of the rest period to make sure that it has dropped
below 99°F. At no time shall work begin with the oral temperature above 99°F.

• 12.6.2 Cold Exposure
•
•
If field activities occur during a period when temperatures average below freezing, the following
guidelines will be followed.
Persons working outdoors in temperatures at or below freezing may be subject to frostbite. Extreme cold
for a short time may cause severe injury to the surface of the body. or result in profound generalized
cooling of the body core, resulting in coma and death. Areas of the body which have high surface arca-to-
volume ratio such as fingers, toes, and ears are the most susceptible.
Two factors influence the development of a cold injury; ambient temperature and the velocity of the wind.
Wind chill is used to describe the chilling effect of moving air in combination with low temperature. For
instance, 10°F with a IS-mile per hour (mph) wind is equivalent to chilling still air to -18°F. Refer to
Table 12-1 Windchill Index.
As a general rule, the greatest incremental increase in wind chill occurs when a wind of 5 mph increases
to IO mph. Additionally, water conducts heat 240 times faster than air. Thus, the body cools suddenly
when chemical-protective equipment is removed if the clothing underneath is perspiration-soaked.
Local injury resulting from cold is included in the generic term frostbite. There are several degrees of
damage. Frostbite of the extremities can be categorized into:
Frost nip or incipient frostbite: Characterized by sudden blanching or whitening of skin.
Superficial frostbite: Skin has a waxy or white appearance and is firm to the touch, but tissue
beneath is resilient.
Deep frostbite: Tissue is cold, pale, and solid; extremely serious injury.
Prevention of frostbite is vital. Keep the extremities warm. Wear insulated clothing as part of one's
protective gear during extremely cold conditions. Check for symptoms of frostbite at every break. The
onset is painless and gradual--you may never know you have been injured until it is too late.
To administer first aid for frostbite, bring the victim indoors and rewarm the areas guicklv in water
between 39°C and 4!°C (102°F to 105°F). Give a warm drink--not coffee, tea, or alcohol. The victim
should not smoke. Keep the frozen parts in warm water or covered with warm clothes for 30 minutes,
even though the tissue will be very painful as it thaws. Then elevate the injured area and protect it from
injury. Do not allow blisters to be broken. Use sterile, soft, dry material to cover the injured areas. Keep
victim warm and get immediate medical care.
After thawing, the victim should try to move the injured areas a little, but no more than can be done alone
(without help) .
Q:l,,t 1351\WORKPLA,WIASP-R v.?. DOC December 2000
12-5
• Do not rnb the frostbitten part (this may cause gangrene).
Health and Safery Plan
Gresham's Lake Site
Raleigh, Wake Co11t1ty, North Carolina
Do not use ice, snow, gasoline, or anything cold on frostbite.
Do not use heat lamps or hot water bottles to rewarm the frostbitten area.
Do not place the body part near a hot stove.
Systemic hypothennia is caused by exposure to freezing or rapidly dropping temperature. Its symptoms
are usually exhibited in five stages: I) shivering; 2) apathy, listlessness, sleepiness, and (sometimes)
rapid cooling of the body to less than 95°F; 3) unconsciousness, glassy stare, slow pulse, and slow
respiratory rate; 4) freezing of the extremities; and, finally, 5) death.
Effects arising from cold exposure will be minimized by providing workers with insulated clothing when
the equivalent chill temperature is less than 30°F as defined and presented in the ACGIH booklet in Table
5. Furthermore, field activities will generally be curtailed or halted if the equivalent chill temperature
is below -20°F. The ultimate responsibility for delaying work at a site due to inclement weather rests with
the SSO.
12. 7 Poison Ivy
If personnel come in contact with poison ivy, the individual should immediately wash the affected area
with Ivy Cleaner provided in the first aid kit. If a rash develops, it should be treated at a medical facility
as soon as possible.
12.8 Snakes and Ticks
12.8.1 Snake Bite Prevention and First Aid
On project sites, precautions against the possible presence of snakes should be taken when walking
through overgrown vegetation and when moving debris (i.e. lumber, scrap metal, etc.). If someone is
bitten by a snake, and the snake bite occurs in a location that is within a I-hour drive of a medical facility,
a conservative approach is safest. Keeping the victim quiet, lying or sitting, and reassuring him/her is
all that is required. He/she should be transported safely (no speeding) to the nearest medical facility. For
the reassurance of both the victim and the first aider, a snake bite is not nearly as dangerous as popular
mythology would suggest. In North America, death from snake bite to healthy adults is very rare. Many
bites, even from known poisonous snakes, do not result in a significant amount of venom being injected.
Though if snake bite should occur, transport the person immediately to a medical facility.

12.8.2 Tick Bite Prevention and First Aid
Health and Safety Plan
Gresham's Lake Site
Raleigh, Wake County, North Carolina
Routinely check for ticks after being outdoors. Remove ticks as soon as possible before they embed. To
minimize exposure, wear light-colored clothing so ticks can be detected. Tuck pants into boots or socks
and wear long sleeved shirts. Apply tick/insect repellent to clothing.
When a tick is found embedded, remove it by grasping it with a tweezers as close to the skin as possible
and gently pull it straight out. Do not twist or jerk the tick because the head may remain embedded.
Once the tick is removed, wash the bite area and your hands with soap and water and apply an antiseptic
to the bite. Save the tick in a jar labeled with the date and the place where the _tick was acquired. A
physician may find this information and the tick specimen helpful in diagnosis if an infection results.
12.9 Accident/Injury Reporting and Recordkeeping
The SSO shall maintain logs and reports covering health and safety aspects of the project throughout the
duration of work activities. In the event of an on-site accident resulting in an exposure or injury, the SSO
shall immediately complete a Supervisor's Incident Report (SIR) and send a copy to the REHSM. The
SSO shall be responsible for maintaining on-site, the routinely completed records and forms presented
in Appendix C of this HASP .

APPENDIXB
RESPIRATOR PROTECTION PROGRAM FOR
GRESHAM'S LAKE INDUSTRIAL PARK SITE INVESTIGATION
APPENDIXB
RESPIRATOR PROGRAM FOR SITE INVESTIGATION
The following respirator program is in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 Respiratory Protection
Program requirements. This program governs the selection and use of respirators on-site.
Respirators for Earth Tech employees will be provided by Earth Tech. The respirator protection program
will be administered by, and is the responsibility of, the REHSM and/or SSO for the site. Subcontractors
(i.e., drillers) will furnish their own respirators and medical surveillance for their employees. The
REHSM and/or SSO will be responsible for ensuring that they are in compliance with this respirator
program.
The respirators will be selected according to the hazard and level of protection determined by monitoring
action levels and the decision of the REHSM and/or the SSO. The respirators and levels are:
B
C
Respirator
Positive Pressure-Pressure Demand SCBA or Supplied Air Respirator with 5-minute escape
bottle. Level B is 50 to 500 ppm above background in (BZ).
Full-face air purifying respirator with combination dust (HEPA) and organic vapor/acid gas
cartridge. Level C is I ppm to 50 ppm above background in BZ based on identification of
contaminant present. The full face piece respirator with combination dust and organic
vapor/acid gas cartridge will be appropriate for the dust conditions and organics that may be
encountered.
D No respirator required. Continuous reading of background (0.2 ppm) to I ppm in the worker's
BZ.
The respirator users will be fit tested with the size, style, and make of the respirator they will be using
on-site. The fit test will be recorded and these Fit Test Records will be maintained in the Command Post.
Employee respirator training is provided on an annual basis and at site-specific training sessions. This training includes:
• A discussion of the nature of the respiratory hazards and the dangers if the respirator is not used
properly.
• The reasons that respirators are required for protection, along with any engineering controls that
may be used.
•
•
Instruction in the selection, use, sanitary care, maintenance, proper storage, and limitation of the
full face piece respirator with combination cartridge, and the SCBA.
Practice in proper fitting, wearing, adjusting, and checking face seal of the respirator.
• An opportunity to handle the respirator.
B-1
• • Instruction on how to recognize and cope with emergency situations requiring respiratory
protection.
• Explanation of the requirements for a self-contained breathing device for work in unknown
concentrations and Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health (IDLH) atmosphere and for fire
fighting.
• Explanation of the medical surveillance program and how it relates to respirator use.
• Explanation of the requirements for maintaining a tight seal, why beard and facial hair is
prohibited, and why use of contact lenses while wearing respirators is prohibited.
Respirators will be assigned to individual workers. Each individual shall be responsible for cleaning and
maintaining their assigned respirator. They will be cleaned and disinfected before being reassigned.
Respirators will be cleaned after each day of work according to manufacturer's instruction. The cleaning
will be done at the Command Post. Used cartridges will be disposed of and replaced with new ones.
After cleaning, the respirators will be inspected and checked for defects such as excessive dirt, cracks or
other distortions, scratches, incorrectly mounted lens, broken or worn cartridge holders on the face piece,
breaks, loss of elasticity, broken buckles, and excessively worn serrations on head harness that may cause
slippage on the head straps or head harness.
• Further checks include:
,
a) A check of the tightness of the connections.
b) A check of the face piece, valves, connecting tube, and canisters.
c) A check of the regulator and warning devices on SCBA for proper functioning.
d) For air purifying:
(]) Check the exhalation valve after removing its cover for:
• Foreign material, such as detergent residue, dust particles, or human hair under the
valve seat
• Cracks, tears, or distortion in the valve material
• Improper insertion of the valve body in the face piece
• Cracks, breaks, or chips in the valve body, particularly in the sealing surface
• Missing or defective valve cover
• Improper installation of the valve in the valve body.
(2) Check the air purifying elements for:
B-2
• • Incorrect cartridges, canister, or filter for the hazard
• Incorrect installation, loose connections, missing or worn gaskets, or cross threading
in holder
• Expired shelf life of cartridge or canister
• Cracks, dents, or breaks in the cartridge or canisters case
• Evidence of prior use of cartridge or canister, such as broken seal tape foil or other
sealing material.
(3) Check the corrugated breathing tube for:
• Broken or missing end connectors, gaskets, or 0-rings
• Missing or loose hose clamp
• Deterioration (done by stretching hose and looking for cracks).
e) For air supplied respirators, check the air supply system for:
(I) Integrity and condition of air supply lines and hoses, including attachments and end
fitting
(2) Correct operation and condition of all regulators, valves, or other air-flow regulators
(3) If SCBA, that the cylinder is sufficiently charged for the intended use, preferably fully
charged (mandatory on an emergency device). The emergency SCBA will have a tag for
logging in the monthly inspections.
Monitoring of the work area will be performed and the results will be used to select the appropriate level
of protection. Refer to air monitoring section of the HASP (Section 9.0).
This program will be re-evaluated and revisions and updates added regularly.
Persons will not be assigned to tasks requiring the use of respirators unless it has been determined that
they are physically able to perform the work and use the equipment. The Earth Tech Medical Director
will determine what health and physical conditions are pertinent.
Only those respirators jointly approved by NIOSH/MSHA shall be used. All component parts
(i.e., canister, replacement straps, etc.), will be of the same make.
