Onboarding Guidebook    ONSITE HEALTH AND SAFETY    The purpose of this policy is to make every effort to maintain a safe environment for ALL4 employees  working onsite at facilities.    POLICY    ALL4 is committed to providing the safest work environment for employees. It’s the responsibility of ALL4  Project Managers to see that this procedure is followed and applied to all applicable onsite project work.    DEFINITIONS    Onsite work means ALL4 project work at client or subcontractor industrial or commercial facilities, except  for when ALL4 employee presence is limited to office areas or informational tours conducted under the  supervision of client or subcontractor personnel.    PROCESS    ALL4 Project Managers will develop a customized Onsite Health & Safety Plan (HS Plan) for project work  that requires onsite work by ALL4 employees, as defined above. The HS Plan will be developed using the  ALL4 Site Health and Safety Plan Form, and completion of this form is the process for Hazard  Assessment. The Project Manager will have the HS Plan reviewed and approved by the ALL4 Safety Officer.  Following approval, the Project Manager will review the HS Plan with all project participants and have  them sign their acknowledgement. The Project Manager will provide a copy of the approved and  acknowledged HS Plan to the ALL4 Safety Officer, who will maintain in company records.    The ALL4 Site Health and Safety Form can be found on the network at: C:\\BoxDrive\\Box\\Technical  Services\\RegTech\\Technical Resources\\Safety\\Forms and Templates    An example of a completed form is included for information purposes as Attachment A.
Onboarding Guidebook    PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT    ALL4 employees working onsite must properly use the following personal protective equipment (PPE):               • Hard hat (required for all onsite work).             • Safety glasses with side shields (required for all onsite work).             • ASTM safety-toed shoes (required for all onsite work).             • Long pants (required for all onsite work).             • Long-sleeve shirts (recommended at all times; required when in the vicinity of hot surfaces                   or molten metal).             • Other Site Specific PPE per HS Plan (e.g,. NOMEX coveralls)    FIRST AID AND MEDICAL FACILITIES    Prior to going onsite and as part of the Hazard Assessment process, employees working onsite should  ensure the first aid kit is appropriately stocked and accompanies them to the site. In the absence of any  such provisions, ALL4 requires a person with valid first aid training to be available at the work site to  render first aid.    In addition, as part of the Onsite Health and Safety Plan, local medical facilities must be identified and  contact information provided for any medical emergencies. This may be the presence of the 911 service  and also includes the name and address of the local hospital. Employees must confirm that emergency  care (e.g., ambulance service) is readily available and able to get to the work site. If work site location,  weather, or other conditions prohibit this availability, consult directly with the ALL4 Safety Officer for  resolution. Contact information for emergencies, police, local hospitals, and fire should be completed as  indicated on the onsite health and safety plan template.    SITE OWNER/OPERATOR HEALTH & SAFETY PROGRAMS    Many site owner/operators require visitors and contractors to comply with requirements of their own  health and safety programs. Prior to going onsite, request information on any such requirements and  assure compliance when onsite. If any requirements of the site health and safety program conflict with  this document, consult with the ALL4 Safety Officer for resolution.
Onboarding Guidebook    REPORTING INJURIES AND ACCIDENTS    If you sustain a job-related injury, or suspect an injury or illness from the job, you must report it to your  coordinator immediately. Your coordinator can help you get the appropriate medical assistance, if  necessary. You and your coordinator must complete an ALL4 Injury Report Form and submit it to the ALL4  Safety Officer within 24 hours of sustaining the injury.    The ALL4 Injury Report Form can be found on the network at: C:\\BoxDrive\\Box\\Technical  Services\\RegTech\\Technical Resources\\Safety\\Forms and Templates    The ALL4 Safety Officer will work in tandem with the employee and coordinator to report any sustained  or suspected injury as indicated on the ALL4 Injury Report Form to HR and the Corporate Safety Team.  This Team will then take all information, produce the official report of injury, direct the employee to a  place of treatment (if not done already), and begin the investigation of any injury claim. The HR  department can provide assistance and guidance around possible Workers’ Compensation claims and  processes.    ALL4 will follow suggested investigative steps as outlined in the OSHA Incident/Accident Guide for  employers. The investigation will determine the root causes of accidents, on-the-job injuries, and close  calls in order to prevent them from occurring again. The accident investigation process involves the  following steps:    • First priority is to provide first aid and medical care to anyone injured and prevent further injuries      or damage.    • Report the accident occurrence to a designated person within the organization immediately.  • Investigate the accident.  • Identify the causes.  • Report the findings and what corrective actions will prevent recurrences.  • Ensure follow-up on completion of corrective actions.  • The ALL4 Safety Office is responsible for overseeing the investigation and implementing any        corrective measures as soon as possible.
Onboarding Guidebook    SAFETY VIOLATIONS AND NON-COMPLIANCE    As with all company policies, employees should familiarize themselves with our company safety program  and procedures. Violation of this safety policy or failure of employees to comply with the practices and  procedures indicated in this document will lead to discipline, up to and including termination. All  employees must cooperate with all investigations.
Onboarding Guidebook    TRAINING PROGRAM    GENERAL PROGRAM OVERVIEW    OVERVIEW & APPROACH    ALL4 is committed to providing training at all levels of the organization with the goal of developing expert  consultants. An expert consultant at ALL4 possesses a wide variety of attributes ranging from technical  expertise and regulatory knowledge to sales and relationship building. ALL4’s Training Program  (“Program”) is designed to provide the structure for everyone in the company, from entry-level to senior-  level consultant, to develop the complete package of skills necessary to be a successful consultant. The  Program mixes internal training programs with approved external training courses. The Program consists  of three primary types of training:        1. Internal Training      2. External Training      3. Advanced-Degree Continuing Education    This document summarizes the procedures and responsibilities for the major components of the Training  Program. The Program is structured based on the concept that each employee is responsible for working  with their coordinator to identify training needs consistent with their stage of professional development  within the applicable career matrix. Note: Whether the training is offered internally or externally, it’s the  employee’s responsibility to identify appropriate training to expand their skill sets.    EMPLOYEE RESPONSIBILITIES    1. Review ALL4’s Internal Training Schedule, Pre-Approved External Training Courses list, and other      courses for potential training options that meet your identified training needs.    2. Draft a personal training plan for the year. Finalize this plan as part of your annual “Create the      Year” meeting with your Coordinator.    3. Meet quarterly with your coordinator to follow up on training attended, discuss feedback      received, and review/revise your personal training plan for the upcoming quarter, as needed.    4. Register for internal and/or external training, following procedures outlined in this document.           a. For external training, employees are encouraged to use the Pre-Approved External                Training Courses list to select applicable courses and must submit the External Training                Request Form to have the training approved prior to registering.    5. Attend the training and complete any follow-up actions, as outlined in this SOP.
Onboarding Guidebook                  a. For external training, employees must complete an External Training Debrief Form.                     Employees may also be asked to conduct an internal presentation of the training or to use                     the training to train other ALL4 employees. This decision will be made after the training.    COORDINATOR RESPONSIBILITIES        1. Aid the employee in identifying appropriate training needs by providing an honest evaluation of           where an employee is with respect to their professional development within the applicable level’s           Career Matrix.        2. Guide the employee in finalizing their personal training plan as part of the employee’s annual           “Create the Year” meeting.        3. Meet quarterly with the employee to follow up on training attended, discuss feedback received,           and review/revise their personal training plan for the upcoming quarter, as needed.        4. Review requests for external training, according to the procedures in this SOP.                a. For external training, review and approve/decline External Training Request Forms.                     Forward these forms to the Training Lead for final approval and processing.        5. Review internal training attendance on a quarterly basis.                a. For internal training, review the Training Calendar Spreadsheet and the monthly technical                     newsletter for upcoming trainings being offered.    TRAINING LEAD ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES        1. Develop, maintain, and update all Training Program procedures.      2. Approve new external training courses.      3. Develop and manage annual training budget for external training. Present budget to ALL4 HR             during the calendar year preceding the training year.      4. Approve employees’ external training requests.      5. Develop Annual Training Program schedule and approve any adjustments or changes throughout             the year.      6. Communicate schedule and training program expectations with trainers.      7. Recruit new trainers.      8. Meet routinely with Staff Coordinators to identify new training areas of focus.      9. Propose new internal training courses and present new courses to HR and the RegTech team for             approval.      10. Ensure that the catalog of ALL4 pre-approved external training courses is up-to-date, and             complete and circulate it to the company on a quarterly basis.      11. Identify potential new training providers and communicate list of providers to the company.
Onboarding Guidebook    INTERNAL TRAINING    INTERNAL TRAINING SCHEDULE    The Training Lead is responsible for coordinating the development of the Annual Internal Training  Schedule. This Schedule includes information such as the course name, number, trainer, dates, and the  appropriate level at which an employee should participate in the training. The Training Lead should  manage any adjustments or changes as needed.    MANDATORY TRAINING BY LEVEL    The various Career Matrices specify the competencies one must achieve to be successful at a particular  level, as well as those competencies necessary for promotion to the next level. ALL4 has designed the  Training Program so that internal training courses are aligned with these specific levels. The Internal  Training Schedule indicates the appropriate level at which an employee should participate in a training  session. It’s realistic for employees to spend more than one year at any given level, so employees should  not feel compelled to rush through the available training courses. Most training courses are offered on an  annual basis, and ALL4 urges employees to take a phased approach to training, at a pace consistent with  their stage of development within the applicable level.    APPROVAL TO REGISTER FOR INTERNAL TRAINING    An employee is expected to review their training plan with their Coordinator on a quarterly basis and prior  to registering for internal training. Employees should seek approval from their Coordinator and the  training lead prior to attending an internal training.    OBSERVATION VERSUS PARTICIPATION    An employee may choose to attend an internal training session prior to reaching the applicable level for  the training (or prior to reaching the proper stage of development within the applicable level). This type  of early attendance is encouraged and allowed, as the employee may gain useful information from the  training. However, the employee will not receive credit for the course, as the employee is not yet in a  position in which they are able to use the newly acquired knowledge or skill set on the job. For this reason,  early attendance will be recorded as “observation” rather than “participation.” An employee who chooses  to “observe” a training course will be required to later “participate” in the training course when they have  reached the appropriate level for the training, unless their Coordinator signs off on an exception.
Onboarding Guidebook    REGISTRATION PROCESS FOR INTERNAL TRAINING    After reviewing the Training Program Schedule for available internal training sessions, working with their  Coordinator to identify appropriate training needs, and finalizing their training plan, the employee is  responsible for registering for internal training sessions. To register, employees should reach out to HR or  access the links via the Technical Newsletter.    EXTERNAL TRAINING    EXTERNAL TRAINING PLAN AND BUDGET    The Training Lead is responsible for developing and managing the annual training budget for external  training. This budget is intended to cover training registration fees as well as any other expenses related  to the training (i.e., mileage, meals, hotel, etc).    As Coordinators approve external training requests, the Training Lead tracks approvals against the training  plan and budget. The Training Lead provides quarterly updates to the HR prior to the quarterly financial  plan completion.    THE PRE-APPROVED EXTERNAL TRAINING COURSES LIST    There are numerous external training providers and many more external training courses currently  available, offered both in-person and via webinar/audio conference. ALL4 strives to maintain a continually  updated list of pre-approved courses predicated on the feedback of employees who have participated in  those courses. The Training Lead manages this list.    Should an identified training need not be met internally, the employee should review the Pre-Approved  External Training Courses list for applicable options.        • If the list includes an applicable course, the employee should review the provider’s website or           catalog to learn when and where the course is offered.        • If the list does not include an applicable course, the employee should review websites or catalogs           of the external training providers on the list, as well as those of other external training providers,           to find a course that fits their need.    Once the employee has selected an external training course, the employee must complete an External  Training Request Form in order to obtain approval to register.
Onboarding Guidebook    EXTERNAL TRAINING REQUEST FORM    An employee who wishes to attend external training must request approval by completing an External  Training Request Form and submitting it to their Coordinator. This form will be used to determine the  return on investment and viability of the training course as it pertains to value for the company and  employee.    APPROVAL TO REGISTER FOR EXTERNAL TRAINING    The approval process for confirming or denying requests for external training is as follows:      1. External Training Request Forms are submitted by the employee to the Staff Coordinator.      2. If approved, the Staff Coordinator forwards the form to the Training Lead.                a. If the total value of the training doesn’t exceed $500 and the total time out of office                     doesn’t exceed a half day, the Training Lead has the authority to provide final approval of                     the training based on the status of the external training plan and budget.                b. If the total value of the training exceeds $500 or the total time out of office exceeds a half                     day, the Training Lead must forward the request to the HR Director for final approval.      3. The Training Lead notifies the employee and Staff Coordinator of the status of the request. If final           approval is granted, the employee may now register for the external training course.    REGISTRATION PROCESS FOR EXTERNAL TRAINING    Once notified that final approval has been granted, the employee may register for the external training  course. After registering, the employee is expected to forward a copy of the registration confirmation and  payment receipt to the Training Lead.    EXTERNAL TRAINING DEBRIEF FORM    Following the successful completion of the external training course, the Training Lead will request that  the employee complete an External Training Debrief Form. This form is used to quantify the overall value  of the course versus ALL4’s investment and whether or not the course should be added to the Pre-  Approved External Training Courses list.    ADDITIONS TO THE EXTERNAL TRAINING COURSES LIST    The External Training Debrief Form is a tool that both the Training Lead and Chief Operating Officer use  to determine possible incorporation of the training course for future training needs. If the course is
Onboarding Guidebook    determined to be a viable option, the Training Lead will add the external training course to the list of Pre-  Approved External Training Courses.    ADVANCED-DEGREE CONTINUING EDUCATION    CONTINUING EDUCATION (I.E., CLASSES TOWARD A DEGREE AT AN ACCREDITED UNIVERSITY OR  COLLEGE)    ALL4’s Training Program includes Advanced-Degree Continuing Education. This could involve participation  in graduate/undergraduate classes or specialized training at an accredited university or college.  Employees who take such classes may qualify for tuition reimbursement. (Please refer to the Tuition  Reimbursement policy of ALL4’s Employee Handbook for specific details.)    An employee who intends to participate in continuing education may do so at any point in their career.  The employee doesn’t have to request approval from ALL4, unless attendance will overlap our core work  hours or the employee wishes to be reimbursed by ALL4 according to the Tuition Reimbursement Policy.    TUITION REIMBURSEMENT REQUEST    An employee who intends to receive reimbursement for continuing education must request advance  approval by reaching out to their coordinator and HR.    APPROVING TUITION REIMBURSEMENT REQUESTS FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION    The approval process for confirming or denying requests for tuition reimbursement is as follows:      1. The employee submits Tuition Reimbursement requests to the Staff Coordinator.      2. If approved, the Staff Coordinator forwards the request to the Training Lead.      3. The Training Lead confirms employee’s currently available tuition reimbursement amount and           obtains final approval from the HR Director.      4. The Training Lead notifies the employee and Staff Coordinator of the status of the request.    TUITION REIMBURSEMENT PAYMENTS    Tuition Reimbursement Payments are made upon submittal of final grades, assuming all conditions of the  Tuition Reimbursement Policy have been met. The general process is as follows:        1. Upon completion of the course, the employee submits their final grade to the Training Lead.
Onboarding Guidebook                  a. If all conditions of the Policy have been met, the Training Lead submits the tuition                     reimbursement payment for the upcoming payroll period and notifies the employee and                     their Coordinator.                  b. If all conditions of the Policy haven’t been met, the Training Lead notifies the employee                     and their Coordinator.    *All forms (as well as the Schedule and this SOP) can be found in the training folder for the current year  at: \"C:\\BoxDrive\\Box\\Departments Public\\Human Resources\\Training\\Training Program\\20xx Training  Program\"
Onboarding Guidebook    BEST-IN-CLASS PROGRAM    INTRODUCTION: DEFINING WHAT IT TAKES TO BE BEST-IN-CLASS    ALL4’s founders deliberately created four core values that serve as the organization’s foundation. These  core values – Ownership, Accountability, Authenticity, and Culture – are also known throughout ALL4 as  the “Core4.”    These values are the foundation for our employee engagement program and act as the building blocks to  ALL4’s Best-in-Class program. Our staff embodies the Core4 values and is the key to the company’s  continued success and growth.    ALL4’s mix of environmental professionals strikes an effective balance of technical, ecological, and  environmental policy savvy that is unique for an environmental consulting firm of our size. Our divergent  professional work experience is another factor that differentiates ALL4. ALL4 is built on a culture of  accomplishment, respect, accountability, and teamwork.    While our work ethic is formal as we strive to make one another better both professionally and personally  by setting high standards and holding ourselves accountable to these standards, we’re also committed to  having a lot of fun at ALL4!    EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT: BUILDING BLOCKS FOR CREATING A BEST-IN-CLASS  ORGANIZATION    There isn’t just one checkbox that comprises employment engagement, there are in fact many, and they  cover a broad spectrum of factors. ALL4 recognizes this and continually challenges itself both inside and  outside of our four walls to educate ourselves on what makes employees thrive. One thing we’ve learned  is that a Best-in-Class organization is not built using just one source as its foundation but rather by using  an array of building blocks. Some of the key components in our foundation include:        • Benefits Package: ALL4 offers employees a robust and comprehensive benefits package that           includes a choice of medical plans, dental, vision, short-term disability, long-term disability, and           life insurance coverage.        • Monthly Communications Stipend: Employees receive this to defray the cost of being available           to clients and emails outside of the office.
Onboarding Guidebook    • Continuing Education: ALL4 offers reimbursement for continuing education for both tuition and      professional registrations.    • Celebrate the Year: One of ALL4’s most highly anticipated events is the celebration to reflect on      the year. This annual retreat allows employees to gather for fun and recognition.    • Cornerstone Events: Each office hosts a few key events that have become annual traditions for      employees and their families to enjoy. While the venues in which the Cornerstone Events are      hosted vary, the theme is consistent – celebrating the employees that are the core to ALL4’s      Core4! Cornerstone celebrations at some of the offices include:             -PHL: PHL and PCC hold an annual Crab Fest picnic held each summer. It’s an event filled           with camaraderie, catered food, and recreational activities. The PHL office has also enjoyed           supporting Philadelphia’s professional sports teams by attending baseball, basketball, and           hockey events.             -WDC: With the office’s anniversary date falling on Cinco de Mayo, an annual celebration is           held, sometimes at a local Mexican restaurant, to recognize this special occasion. Other           events have included employees and their families attending a fall festival at a local apple           orchard.             -HOU: To honor their anniversary, employees and significant others attend a formal dinner at           a local restaurant, such as Armando’s Restaurant, in downtown Houston. The office also           enjoys attending professional sporting events, such as Rockets and Astros games.             -ATL: The office hosts a picnic for employees and their families to enjoy celebrating their           office’s anniversary…think moon bounce, dunk tank, and lobster! They also attend an Atlanta           Braves baseball game annually and have hosted ALL4 tailgates at Georgia Tech football games.    • Recess Activities: You might be asking yourself, W hat ex actly are recess activities? Each ALL4      office hosts a variety of events throughout the year so employees can relax and have some fun      with their colleagues! Sometimes these events are during the workday, i.e., during the lunch hour,      and sometimes these events are held after work. Recess activities can take on a variety of shapes      and sizes and are integral to our company culture. Below is a list of a few examples of activities      hosted at the various offices:             o Cornhole Competitions           o March Madness Hoops Shootout           o On-Site Massages           o Beer Club           o Cinco de Mayo           o Apple Picking           o Happy Hours           o Darts           o Cookouts
Onboarding Guidebook    o Pumpkin-Carving Contest  o Bowling  o Ping Pong Competitions  o Escape Room  o Go-Karting  o Tailgates    RECOGNITION: MAKING TIME TO SAY “THANK YOU!”    Another component to the Best-in-Class program is employee recognition. At ALL4 we like to recognize  excellence and do so in a variety of ways, big and small, such as:        • “High Fives”/\"Celebrations\": During weekly meetings, time is set aside for peers to give “High           Fives” and say “Thank you” to coworkers who have gone above and beyond. “Celebrations” for           non-work related accomplishments, family highlights, and other milestones are also shared.        • ALL4 Accolades: This monthly recognition program allows employees to nominate a coworker           who has shown excellence in his or her work. At the end of the month, the winner is announced           at a staff meeting and receives a commendation and monetary award.        • On-the-Spot Bonuses: These bonuses are given to employees going above and beyond the call of           duty. These bonuses can be in the form of a monetary reward, a gift card, a dinner on the           company, or free event tickets.        • Annual End-of-Year Celebration/Employee Recognition: At the “Celebrate the Year” event, the           Principals also award top-performing employees with monetary and gift card rewards for a variety           of categories.        • ALL4 Gear: Employees are awarded a stipend at the start of the new year that they can use to           shop for items to be embroidered with the ALL4 logo.    COMMUNITY SERVICE: WE’RE ALL4 GIVING BACK!    Giving back to the community is a reflection of ALL4's core values and philanthropic legacy. There are a  number of ways we demonstrate that We’re ALL4 community!:        • ALL4 Service Day: Annually, some of our offices independently volunteer at a charitable           organization located in their region.
Onboarding Guidebook      • One Charity Work Day/Year: In lieu of a normal work day, ALL4 sponsors each employee to             volunteer for an organization of their choice.        • Sack the Snacks: During the month of December, each office forgoes purchasing supplies for           their snack closets and instead donates the money to a community outreach initiative. Past           initiatives have included food pantries, shelters, and youth organizations.        • Corporate Sponsorship for the United Way: Employees are able to make payroll deductions and           participate in volunteer efforts for the United Way campaign. ALL4 also matches dollar for dollar           any donation made by an employee to a United Way charity of the employee's choice.    ROLES: HOW CAN I BE A CONTRIBUTOR TO ALL4’S BEST-IN-CLASS PROGRAM?    In order for employee engagement to be successful, we need facilitators! How can you get involved and  contribute? There are many roles, both big and small, that you can serve to help foster ALL4’s Best-in-  Class environment. A few include:        • Each regional office location has a Recess Coordinator role. This individual develops a list of recess           activities for their office for the calendar year and establishes a budget for each event.        • A Recess Captain volunteers to coordinate and take the lead for one (or more) of the individual           recess activities hosted throughout the year. This can be a planned event already on the calendar           or something new.        • Who do I contact? Your mentor is available to answer any questions, but also feel free to contact           Anne Vitale, the Best-in-Class Coordinator (email: [email protected]) with questions, feedback,           suggestions, or to get involved with one of the roles mentioned above.        • Remember…We always welcome and value fresh ideas for ALL4’s Best-in-Class program!
Onboarding Guidebook    ALL4 WELLNESS FUND    Our employees’ wellness is important to our organization and impacts not only individuals but also  the organization’s overall cost of doing business. Effective January 1, 2022, ALL4 is proud to  announce that we have expanded our Fitness Fund Program, renamed ALL4 Wellness Fund, to  include not only fitness equipment, gym memberships, health monitors, and fitness classes but also  activities that improve your overall sense of physical, spiritual, and mental well-being. You now have  more options of where to direct your funds. The following parameters are in place:    Employees may seek reimbursement (up to a maximum of $150 annually) for fitness-  related and well-being expenses.    • Examples of approved fitness-related expenses include items such as:                      gym memberships                      fitness classes                      race entry fees                      fitness monitors (Fitbit, Apple watch, etc.)    • Examples of approved well-being related expenses include, but are not limited to:                      counseling sessions                      massages                      manicures                      a park membership                      a therapy light                      nutrition classes    • Fitness equipment is also a covered expense (e.g., rowing machines, tennis balls, running      shoes, bicycles). Fitness attire, such as shirts, shorts, socks, etc., isn’t eligible.

Onboarding Guidebook    4WARD FUND    The 4WARD FUND is a program designed to encourage technical and entrepreneurial innovation. It allows  ALL4 employees that identify opportunities in emerging technical, service, or process-related areas to be  granted time and/or budgetary allotments to implement a business case within the identified opportunity.  The program will work as follows:        • An employee identifies an emerging contaminant, regulation/policy, stakeholder group, service           area, ALL4 process efficiency improvement, or other technical issue that represents an           opportunity to increase revenue and/or optimize our internal processes that increases           profitability.        • The employee schedules a meeting or conference call with the Chief Technical Officer to           preliminarily outline the opportunity and to generally discuss its potential candidacy for the           4WARD FUND.        • After the CTO and employee have identified the area of focus as a potential candidate for the           4WARD FUND, the employee evaluates and summarizes a business case pertaining to the area of           focus. Opportunities could either be internally facing (process improvements, efficiencies, etc.) or           externally facing (business drivers, stakeholders’ groups, new services, etc.). ALL4’s CTO and           Business Development Team are available for discussion in advance of preparing the business           case to guide the ALL4 employee through the process.                o All business cases (both internally and externally facing) could include the following                     components:                           The technical expertise/learning that will be required to capitalize on the                               opportunity (i.e., time spent researching, partnerships, conference attendance,                               etc.)                           The time that will be required to accomplish the objectives of the opportunity                               (could include technical research, legwork, time at events, etc.)                           The necessary ALL4 staff members that would need to contribute to the                               opportunity                           The overall benefit to ALL4 and ALL4 staff in terms of technical knowledge,                               capability, or efficiency gained                           The financial impact of the investment                o Business cases that are externally facing could also include the following components:                           The prospective market for the emerging service and the size (annual revenue) of                               that market that would be associated with the area of focus                           Marketing and business development steps that must be taken to capitalize on                               the area of focus with the prospective market                           An estimate for time and dollars to be invested in the area of focus                           Projected annual revenue realized in the following three years as a result of the                               efforts        • The employee presents the business case to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT).        • The ELT reviews the business case and, if approved, outlines an allotment of billable hours and/or           dollars available to implement the opportunity.

Onboarding Guidebook    Author: Dan Dix  Description: Correct a flowrate or concentration to a desired percent oxygen, by volume  Equation:    (Amount of Oxygen in Atmosphere – Actual Percent Oxygen) / (Amount of Oxygen in Atmosphere –           Desired Percent)    Flow  20.9 - actual O2            =  Corrected   Flow            20.9 − new O2    ppm   20.9 - new O2      =  Corrected            Concentration           20.9 − actual O2    Sample Problem 1: Convert 17,832 DSCFM @ 8% O2 to 6% O2                           17,832 DSCF*(20.9%-8%)/(20.9%-6%)=15,438 DSCFM @ 6% O2  Sample Problem 2: Convert 100PPM of CO @ 10% O2 to 8% O2    100PPM*(20.9%-8%)/(20.9%-10%) = 118.3 PPM @ 8% O2
Onboarding Guidebook    Notes/Tips:  All O2% above are expressed as volume percent.    When correcting to a higher %O2, the concentration (ppm) should decrease and the flowrate should  increase (adding more O2 “dilutes” the original concentration and adding more O2 increases the  volume of air). When correcting to a lower %O2, the concentration (ppm) should increase and the  flowrate should decrease (removing O2 means there are more parts in “less” millions resulting in a  greater ppm, and reducing O2 lowers the volume of air).

Onboarding Guidebook    Notes/Tips:  When converting an absolute temperature from one scale to the other, the process is  straightforward. However, when you consider converting a temperature difference in one scale to  another, the conversion becomes slightly more complicated, especially when the differences are  between the Fahrenheit and centigrade scales. In order to make the correct conversion of a  temperature difference, you should maintain the temperature difference in its original scale and then  convert the base temperature to the scale for the temperature difference.  Base temperature of 500 degrees F  Temperature difference of ± 20 degrees C.                  1.) Convert 500 degrees F to centigrade                     (500-32)x(5/9) = 260 degrees C                   2.) 260 degrees C ± 20 degrees C equals 240 to 280 degrees C.  The reason that the temperature difference for centigrade and Fahrenheit must be treated as  described is based on the nonlinear difference in the two temperature scales. Centigrade and  Fahrenheit match at -40 degrees and diverge as temperature increases and decreases.    Mathematically, the process is not distributive (i.e., a(b+c) = ab + ac) since the “a” term or function  includes an addition or subtraction term (i.e., +32 pr -32) and a multiplication term.

Onboarding Guidebook    Author: Dan Dix  Date: 3/4/2008 Calculation Type: lb/1000 lb Exhaust    Description: Calculate emission as lb pollutant per 1000 lb dry scf exhaust    Equation:                     (lb /hr)x(hr/min)x(min/ft3)x(ft3 exhaust @ 20C/0.0752 lb)x(1,000/1,000)    Sample Problem 1: A boiler is emitting 5 lb/hr PM with an exhaust flowrate of 56,000 DSCFM. Calculate  the emission rate as lb PM/1000 lb exhaust.                   (5lb PM/hr)x(1hr/60min)x(min/56,000ft3)x(ft3 @ 20ºC/0.0752 lb)x(1,000/1,000)                                                  0.0198 lb PM/1000 lb exhaust    Notes/Tips:  (1) 0.0752 lb air per cubic foot a dry standard conditions at 20ºC.  (2) 0.0807 lb air per cubic foot at dry standard conditions at 0ºC.        • Conversion typically used for particulate emissions only.      • 50% excess air is often included in the lb pollutant / 1,000 lb exhaust gas.  (3) Michigan is the only state that we know of that expresses emissions limits in units of lb/1000 lb  exhaust.
