and Regulations and to abide by those requirements while preforming utility work. Copies of MCSE’s Rules and
Regulations are available on the MCSE’s website:
https://www.medinaco.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Sanitary_rulesandregs.pdf

NOTICE TO ALL REGISTERED CONTRACTORS
AND PROPERTY OWNERS
It is the Medina County Sanitary Engineers policy that all excavations performed in connection with water and
sewer taps MUST comply with the standards and specifications as set forth in the US Department of Labor
Occupational Safety & Health Administrations (OSHA) 29 CFR Subpart P - Excavations, 1926.650 through
1926.652. Simply stated, all excavations five foot (5') or deeper SHALL be properly boxed, shored, or laid back
to the satisfaction of the Sanitary Engineers representative at the work site. A ladder or other safe means of
egress shall be located in trench excavations.
Excavation of County owned sewer or waterlines shall not take place until the day the water or sewer tap is
scheduled unless specifically permitted by the Sanitary Engineers Office.
Traffic control, including, but not limited to signs, lights and flagman, shall be provided by the contractor for all
work at the road site. All sites SHALL be protected using the specifications and standards as set forth in the
Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTECD) and the ODOT Manual of Traffic Control for
Construction and Maintenance Operations.
If the trench and/or traffic control is considered by the Sanitary Engineers representative to be unsafe and/or out
of compliance with OSHA and OMUTCD standards, all work will cease and will not be permitted to proceed
until the standards are met. This is an action that the Sanitary Engineers would prefer not to take. Therefore, we
are asking for your assistance in eliminating, or minimizing, unnecessary delays by fully complying with all
appropriate health and safety standards, guidelines, and policies.

Traffic Details for Medina County Sanitary Engineer’s Contractors
According to Chapter 6C. Temporary Traffic Control Elements state that a Temporary Traffic Control
(TTC) Plan “measures to be used for facilitating road users through a work zone or an incident area”.
“These plans play a vital role in providing continuity of effective road user flow when a work zone,
incident, or other temporary event disrupts normal road user flow.” TTC plans will be prepared by
someone knowledgeable (trained or certified individual) about the fundamental principles and practices
of the TTC work intended to be performed.
All contractors will have a knowledgeable person setup work safety zones with appropriate signs based
on the nature and complexity of the situation in accordance with the Chapter 6C of the Ohio Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices (12
th
Edition).
Contractors assume all responsibility for proper signage and maintenance of that signage. All
contractors will have Qualified Flaggers. All qualified flaggers will have to meet the following standards
according to Chapter 6E of the Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (12
th
Edition) or most
recent addition:
All flaggers should be trained in safe traffic control practices and public contact
techniques. Flaggers should be able to satisfactorily demonstrate the following abilities:
A. Ability to receive and communicate specific instructions clearly, firmly, and courteously;
B. Ability to move and maneuver quickly in order to avoid danger from errant vehicles;
C. Ability to control signaling devices (such as paddles and flags) in order to provide clear and
positive guidance to drivers approaching a TTC zone in frequently changing situations;
D. Ability to understand and apply safe traffic control practices, sometimes in stressful or emergency
situations; and
E. Ability to recognize dangerous traffic situations and warn workers in sufficient time to avoid injury
All flaggers will need to be wearing with High-Visibility safety apparel that meets Performance Class 2 or
3 requirements for ANSI/ISEA 107-2004 standards.
The distances shown in Table 6E-3, which provides information regarding for the determination of sign

** The column headings A, B, and C are the dimensions shown in Figures 6H-1 through 6H-46. The A dimension is the distance
from the transition or point of restriction to the first sign. The B dimension is the distance between the first and second signs.
The C dimension is the distance between the second and third signs. (The “first sign” is the sign in a three-sign series that is
closest to the TTC zone. The “third sign” is the sign that is furthest upstream from the TTC zone.)
The formula shown in Table 6H-4, is the formula to determining taper lengths.

Below are a few examples of ideal setup for work zones which you may encounter in water and sewer
tap locations. Special situations or locations should be reviewed with our office and the contractor’s
knowledgeable person prior to construction starting. Full list of examples can be found in the Ohio
Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (12
th
Edition) or most recent addition:
Lane Closure on a Two-Lane Road Using
Flaggers
Option:
1. For low-volume situations with short work
zones on straight roadways where the flagger
is visible to
road users approaching from both directions, a
single flagger, positioned to be visible to road
users
approaching from both directions, may be used
(see Chapter 6E).
2. The ROAD WORK AHEAD and the END ROAD
WORK signs may be omitted for short-duration
operations.
3. Flashing warning lights and/or flags may be
used to call attention to the advance warning
signs.
A BE PREPARED TO STOP sign may be added to
the sign series.
Guidance:
4. The buffer space should be extended so that
the two-way traffic taper is placed before a
horizontal
(or crest vertical) curve to provide adequate
sight distance for the flagger and a queue of
stopped
vehicles.
Standard:
5. At night, flagger stations shall be
illuminated, except in emergencies.
Guidance:
6. When used, the BE PREPARED TO STOP sign should be located between the Flagger sign and the
ONE LANE ROAD sign.
7. When a grade crossing exists within or upstream of the transition area and it is anticipated that
queues resulting from the lane closure might extend through the grade crossing, the TTC zone
should be extended so that the transition area precedes the grade crossing.
8. When a grade crossing equipped with active warning devices exists within the activity area,
provisions should be made for keeping flaggers informed as to the activation status of these warning
devices.
9. When a grade crossing exists within the activity area, drivers operating on the left-hand side of the
normal center line should be provided with comparable warning devices as for drivers operating on
the right-hand side of the normal center line.
10. Early coordination with the railroad company or light rail transit agency should occur before work
starts.
Option:
11. A flagger or a uniformed law enforcement officer may be used at the grade crossing to minimize the
probability that vehicles are stopped within 15 feet of the grade crossing, measured from both sides
of the outside rails.
