RESOLUTION 20-2016-17
A RESOLUTION AMENDING PERSONNEL POLICY 03-1 RELATIVE TO PROTECTIVE
FOOTWEAR
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLARKSVILLE, TENNESSEE:
That City of Clarksville Personnel Policy 03-1, relative to protective footwear, is hereby amended
by deleting the language effective March 6, 2003, and by substituting instead the language attached
hereto as Exhibit A.
ADOPTED:
PERSONNEL POLICY 03-1
SUBJECT: PROTECTIVE FOOTWEAR
PURPOSE Each affected employee shall wear protective footwear when working in areas where
there is a danger of foot injuries due to falling or rolling objects, or objects piercing the sole, and
where such employee's feet are exposed to electrical and hazardous substances.
This policy incorporates the requirements of the U.S. OSHA Regulations 1910.136, Occupational
Foot Protection and ASTM F-2413-2005 (Standard Specification for Performance Requirements
for Protective Footwear), or the most recent version.
POLICY STATEMENT:
It is the responsibility of each department to perform a workplace hazard assessment to determine
the need for specific foot protection, which employees require foot protection, and to ensure that
appropriate foot protection is being worn.
Employees are responsible for their own safe use of foot protection. They shall wear the approved
foot protection as part of their work uniform and follow manufacturer recommendations for their
footwear.
Safety shoes shall be required for all seasonal part-time and/or summer help, where required, a
cost to which the employee is responsible.
Management/Supervisors are responsible for implementing an appropriate foot protection program
for individuals, work, and areas under their direction. They shall:
A. Evaluate all their work areas and tasks and assess the risk for foot injuries, plus slips,
trips, falls, and electrical shock.
B. Determine the need for specific foot protection.
C. Ensure employees are wearing appropriate, approved foot protection.
D. Provide adequate storage and care capability if needed.
E. Ensure foot protection requirements are being followed.
The City Health & Safety Manager shall:
A. Provide professional consultation and guidance to management for all foot protection
program elements.
B. Audit the foot protection program and assist management in developing effective strategies
for indicated improvement.
EMPLOYEE ALLOTMENT
The City of Clarksville shall purchase protective footwear that meets the ASTM F-2413-2005
criteria up to the amount of one-hundred and twenty five dollars ($125) per year for full-time
employees. Note: At this time, there is no legal requirement for the City to provide employees
with protective equipment that is considered personal in nature, such as protective footwear.
At the discretion of the Department Head, protective footwear that is destroyed due to a work-
related accident, catastrophic events, hazardous substances, chemical spill, or other similar event
beyond normal wear, tear, and use may be replaced by the department.
IMPLEMENTATION:
A. Perform hazard assessment of department worksites to determine the need for and type of
foot protection
B. Ensure employees select appropriate, approved foot protection.
C. All protective footwear shall meet the requirements of ASTM F-2413-2005:
1. Protective footwear is intended to provide protection for the toes against external forces
through the use of a protective toe box. Compression and impact resistant protective
footwear shall be rated no less than C/75, I/75, and Mt75.
2. Employees conducting electrical work such as building/facility maintenance, traffic
signal maintenance, sewer lift pump maintenance, etc. shall wear protective footwear
with an (EH) electrical hazard rating. EH footwear is manufactured with non-
conductive, electrical shock-resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide
a secondary source of electric shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the
hazards from an incidental contact with live electrical circuits, electrically energized
conductors, parts or apparatus. It must be capable of withstanding the application of
18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with no current flow or leakage current in excess
of one milliampere under dry conditions. The label printed or sewn onto the shoe shall
have “EH” indicated.
D. The identification of all protective footwear certified as meeting the requirements of this
procedure shall follow a consistent pattern. One shoe of each pair shall be clearly and
legibly identified in letters and numbers by stitched-in labels, stamping, and/or pressure-
sensitized labels. The labels shall identify the shoe as complying with the standard, the
year of the standard, gender, and which sections of the standard the shoe complies with.
Line #1: ASTM F2413-11
This line identifies the ASTM standard. It indicates that the protective footwear meets the
performance requirements of ASTM F2413 issued in 2011.
Line #2: M I/75 C/75 Mt75
This line identifies the gender (M [Male] or F [Female]) of the user. It also identifies the
existence of impact resistance (I), the impact resistance rating (75 foot-pounds),
compression resistance (C) and the compression resistance rating (75) which correlates to
2500 pounds of compression. The metatarsal designation (Mt) and rating (75 foot-pounds)
is also identified.
Lines 3 & 4: PR
Lines 3 and 4 are used to identify footwear made to offer protection from other specific
types of hazards referenced in the standard. They are used to designate conductive (Cd)
properties, electrical hazard resistance properties (EH), footwear designed to reduce the
accumulation of excess static electricity (SD) and puncture resistance (PR).
Conductive (Cd) footwear is intended to provide protection for the wearer against hazards
that may result from static electricity buildup and to help reduce the possibility of ignition
of explosives or volatile chemicals. The footwear must facilitate electrical conductivity and
the transfer of static electricity buildup from the body to the ground. The electrical
resistance must range between zero and 500,000 ohms.
Electrical hazard (EH) footwear is manufactured with non-conductive, electrical shock-
resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide a secondary source of electric
shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the hazards from an incidental contact
with live electrical circuits, electrically energized conductors, parts or apparatus. It must
be capable of withstanding the application of 18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with
no current flow or leakage current in excess of one milliampere under dry conditions.
Static dissipative (SD) footwear is designed to provide protection against hazards that may
exist due to excessively low footwear resistance, as well as maintain a sufficiently high
level of resistance to reduce the possibility of electric shock. The footwear must have a
lower limit of electrical resistance of 106 ohms and an upper limit of 108 ohms.
Puncture-resistant (PR) footwear is designed so that a puncture-resistant plate is
positioned between the insole and outsole. It is an integral and permanent part of the
footwear. Devices constructed of metal must pass the ASTM B117-11 Standard Practice
for Operating Salt Spray (Fog Apparatus) corrosion resistance testing. The device must
show no sign of corrosion after being exposed to a five percent salt solution for 24 hours.
The puncture-resistant footwear must show no signs of cracking after being subjected to
1.5 million flexes and have a minimum puncture resistance of 270 pounds.
Example label for a female Street Department employee who conducts concrete finishing:
ASTM F2413-11
F I/75/C/75/Mt75
Example label for a male Building Maintenance employee who conducts electrical
maintenance work:
ASTM F2413-11
M I/75/C/75/Mt75
EH
E. Employees who are exposed to foot hazards AND who regularly operate heavy equipment,
large trucks or frequently enter/exit vehicles, must wear protective footwear that extends
above the ankle.
F. Employees may use local shoe vendors provided that the protective footwear purchased
meets the aforementioned requirements and the vendors have been approved through the
Purchasing Department. Purchases shall be made with Purchase Orders or City issued P-
cards. If footwear is purchased through a local vendor, it is the supervisor’s and/or
Department Head’s responsibility to inspect the protective footwear for ASTM F2413
compliance.
G. Departments may host mobile footwear vendors and arrange direct billing at their
discretion. If such vendors are used, the vendor must supply a statement that the footwear
meets ASTM F2413. These vendors shall also be preapproved through the Purchasing
Department.
H. To limit costs and prevent damage to an employee’s protective footwear, departments
should issue appropriate over-boots in situations such as sewer work and work around
chemicals, catastrophic events, hazardous substances, concrete, or other materials.
I. No affected employee may work without protective footwear where there is a danger of

EMPLOYEE REIMBURSEMENTALLOTMENT
The City of Clarksville will reimbursementshall purchase protective footwearreimburse
employees that meets the ASTM F-2413-2005 criteria up to the amount of one-hundred and twenty
five dollars ($12525) per year for protective footwear that meets the ASTM F-2413-2005 ANSI
Z41-1999 criteriafull-time employees. Note: At this time, there is no legal requirement for the
City to provide employees with protective equipment that is considered personal in nature, such
as protective footwear.
At the discretion of the Ddepartment Hhead, employees may be reimbursed for protective
footwear that is destroyed due to a work-related accident, catastrophic events, hazardous
substances, chemical spill, or other similar event beyond normal wear, tear, and use may be
replaced by the department.
IMPLEMENTATION:
A. Perform hazard assessment of department worksites to determine the need for and type of
foot protection.
B. Ensure employees select appropriate, approved foot protection.
C. All protective footwear shall meet the requirements of ASTM F-2413-2005 ANSI Standard
Z41-1999:
1. Protective footwear is intended to provide protection for the toes against external forces
through the use of a protective toe box. Compression and impact resistant protective
footwear shall be rated no less than C/75, I/75, and Mt75 C/75 and I/75., respectively.
2. Employees conducting electrical work such as building/facility maintenance, traffic
signal maintenance, sewer lift pump maintenance, etc. shall wear protective footwear
with an (EH)ANSI electrical hazard rating. EH footwear is manufactured with non-
conductive, electrical shock-resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide
a secondary source of electric shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the
hazards from an incidental contact with live electrical circuits, electrically energized
conductors, parts or apparatus. It must be capable of withstanding the application of
18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with no current flow or leakage current in excess
of one milliampere under dry conditions. The footwear that is rated for electrical
hazards shall provide protection against open circuits of 600 volts or less under dry
conditions. No metal parts shall be incorporated in the sole or heel of the shoe. The
ANSI label printed or sewn onto the shoe shall have “EH” indicated.
D. The identification of all protective footwear certified as meeting the requirements of this
procedure shall follow a consistent pattern. One shoe of each pair shall be clearly and
legibly identified in letters and numbers by stitched-in labels, stamping, and/or pressure-
sensitized labels. The labels shall identify the shoe as complying with the standard, the
year of the standard, gender, and which sections of the standard the shoe complies with.
Line #1: ASTM F2413-11
This line identifies the ASTM standard. It indicates that the protective footwear meets the
performance requirements of ASTM F2413 issued in 2011.
Line #2: M I/75 C/75 Mt75
This line identifies the gender (M [Male] or F [Female]) of the user. It also identifies the
existence of impact resistance (I), the impact resistance rating (75 foot-pounds),
compression resistance (C) and the compression resistance rating (75) which correlates to
2500 pounds of compression. The metatarsal designation (Mt) and rating (75 foot-pounds)
is also identified.
Lines 3 & 4: PR
Lines 3 and 4 are used to identify footwear made to offer protection from other specific
types of hazards referenced in the standard. They are used to designate conductive (Cd)
properties, electrical hazard resistance properties (EH), footwear designed to reduce the
accumulation of excess static electricity (SD) and puncture resistance (PR).
Conductive (Cd) footwear is intended to provide protection for the wearer against hazards
that may result from static electricity buildup and to help reduce the possibility of ignition
of explosives or volatile chemicals. The footwear must facilitate electrical conductivity and
the transfer of static electricity buildup from the body to the ground. The electrical
resistance must range between zero and 500,000 ohms.
Electrical hazard (EH) footwear is manufactured with non-conductive, electrical shock-
resistant soles and heels. The outsole is intended to provide a secondary source of electric
shock-resistance protection to the wearer against the hazards from an incidental contact
with live electrical circuits, electrically energized conductors, parts or apparatus. It must
be capable of withstanding the application of 18,000 volts at 60 hertz for one minute with
no current flow or leakage current in excess of one milliampere under dry conditions.
Static dissipative (SD) footwear is designed to provide protection against hazards that may
exist due to excessively low footwear resistance, as well as maintain a sufficiently high
level of resistance to reduce the possibility of electric shock. The footwear must have a
lower limit of electrical resistance of 106 ohms and an upper limit of 108 ohms.
D. Puncture-resistant (PR) footwear is designed so that a puncture-resistant plate is
positioned between the insole and outsole. It is an integral and permanent part of the
footwear. Devices constructed of metal must pass the ASTM B117-11 Standard Practice
for Operating Salt Spray (Fog Apparatus) corrosion resistance testing. The device must
show no sign of corrosion after being exposed to a five percent salt solution for 24 hours.
The puncture-resistant footwear must show no signs of cracking after being subjected to
1.5 million flexes and have a minimum puncture resistance of 270 pounds.
Example label for a female Street Department employee who conducts concrete finishing:
ASTM F2413-11ANSI Z41 PT 99
F I/75/ C/75/Mt75
Example label for a male Building Maintenance employee who conducts electrical
maintenance work:
ASTM F2413-11ANSI Z41 PT 99
M I/75/ C/75/Mt75
EH
E. Employees who are exposed to foot hazards AND who regularly operate heavy equipment,
large trucks or frequently enter/exit vehicles, must wear protective footwear that extends
above the ankle.
F. Employees may use local shoe vendors provided that the protective footwear purchased
meets items 2 through 4 abovethe aforementioned requirements and the vendors have been
approved through the Purchasing Department. Requests for reimbursement shall be
submitted through the employee’s supervisor and/or Department HeadPurchases shall be
made with Purchase Orders or City issued P-cards. If footwear is purchased through a
local vendor, it is the supervisor’s and/or Department Head’s responsibility to inspect the
protective footwear for ASTM F2413 ANSI Z41-1999 compliance.
G. Departments may host mobile footwear vendors and arrange direct billing at their
discretion. If such vendors are used, the vendor must supply a statement that the footwear
meets ANSI Z41-1999ASTM F2413. These vendors shall also be preapproved through
the Purchasing Department.
H. To limit costs and prevent damage to an employee’s protective footwear, departments
should issue appropriate over-boots in situations such as sewer work and work around
chemicals, catastrophic events, hazardous substances, concrete, or other materials.
I. No affected employee may work without protective footwear where there is a danger of
foot injuries due to falling or rolling objects, or objects piercing the sole, and where such
employee's feet are exposed to electrical and hazardous substances hazards. If anyone
needs information on what type of foot protection is appropriate, contact your department’s
Health & Safety Coordinator or the city safetyRisk Management Ccoordinator (Safety)
Health & Safety Manager located in the Human Resources Department.

Sections 13-215 through 13-219 CURRENT LANGUAGE:
Sec. 13‐315. ‐ Authorization for pass through adjustment.
The chief financial officer/comptroller and the gas manager are hereby authorized to pass gas cost
adjustments on to customers, whether increases or decreases, from the supplier of the city gas system
to maintain the balanced efficiency of the gas department.
The mayor, public utilities committee members and other governmental officials shall be apprised of
such increases or decreases, as the case may be, whenever they occur.
PASS THROUGH ADJUSTMENT (PTA)
Due to the volatility of the unregulated cost of gas at the wellhead, all city gas and water department
residential, commercial and high load factor rate classes will be adjusted monthly, increased or
decreased, by a value called the "Pass Through Adjustment" or PTA. The PTA adjustment is intended to
assure that the city gas and water department adjusts for these volatile changes in the wellhead cost of
gas.
The "base" cost of gas is the city gas and water department average annual city gate cost of gas. This
includes the actual gas plus the interstate pipeline volumetric costs involved in transporting the gas from
the source of supply to our city gate regulator station. This cost is established annually and will remain
stable throughout our fiscal year (July 1 through June 30).
The "monthly" cost of gas is the city gas and water department actual city gate cost of gas compared to
the base cost of gas. If the monthly cost of gas exceeds the base cost of gas, the amount will be an
increase. If the monthly cost of gas is less than the base cost of gas, the amount will be a decrease.
The cost of gas at the wellhead, or source of supply, has been unregulated for years and is affected by
free market factors such as supply, demand and competition.
The city gas and water department does not profit from the PTA adjustment. It adjusts for the city gas
and water department monthly city gate gas costs only. It does not affect operation and maintenance,
fixed demand costs, or other costs incurred by the utility.
The PTA will be calculated monthly on the last business day of each month to be applied to the first
billing that follows.
Any balance over or under recovery of gas cost at the end of each month may be passed through the
subsequent month PTA accordingly.
The "pass through adjustment" shall be effective on bills rendered on or after November 1, 2005.

(1) Availability. WACOG interruptible gas service rate shall be available for eligible commercial or
industrial customers for all purposes where the department's distribution mains are suitable for
supplying the desired service. The department shall establish guidelines to determine customers
eligibility for this service.
The customer shall maintain, in a usable condition, facilities for substitute fuel or shall otherwise make
provisions for the curtailment of gas service hereunder and shall agree to use such substitute facilities or
curtailment provisions in order to curtail the use of gas up to one hundred (100) percent of the
maximum requirements immediately upon verbal notice from the department and, after such
curtailment, shall refrain from increasing the use of gas until permitted to do so by the department. It is
understood and agreed that the department will have the right to cut off gas service to the customer in
the event the customer fails to curtail his use of gas in accordance with the department's verbal notice
of curtailment.
(2) Rate. The rate shall be variable as computed by the department using the weighted average cost of
gas (WACOG) plus forty‐eight cents ($0.48) per MCF (1,000 CF) for all gas consumed per month.
The department shall compute two (2) separate WACOG rates each month: (1) a market‐based WACOG
rate; and (2) a fixed‐variable WACOG rate. For the market‐based WACOG rate, the department shall
compute the commodity costs of gas supply as the first of the month index price as published in Inside
FERC's Gas Market Report for deliveries into Tennessee Gas Pipeline—Zone 1 per MMBtu, plus fuel,
converted to Mcf. For the fixed‐variable WACOG rate, the department shall compute the commodity
cost of gas supply as equal to the department's per unit commodity cost of gas supply per MMBtu,
including all purchases of fixed price gas, variable priced gas, and hedged gas prices, plus fuel.
Each industrial interruptible WACOG customer may make an annual election to take market‐based
WACOG pricing for the upcoming twelve (12) months by providing notice in writing to the department
by no later than August 15th, with such election to be effective on September 1st. If a WACOG customer
does not make such an election, it shall receive fixed‐variable WACOG pricing for the next twelve‐month
period.
Except as provided herein for the computation of the commodity cost of gas supply, the computation of
the market‐based WACOG rate and the fixed‐variable WACOG rate shall be identical. The upstream
pipeline transportation and storage costs component of the WACOG rate shall be as computed by the
department so as to reflect an allocation of such costs determined by the department to be appropriate
under all of the circumstances presented but no less than the unit cost of interruptible transportation
service on the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company System.
The department, the mayor, and the gas, water and sewer committee (the utilities committee) of the
city council shall have the authority, under circumstances where it is economically feasible and
beneficial for the city to do so, to modify the specific terms of the natural gas sales agreement entered
into between the department and a specific industrial end use consumer under this section 13‐219 as
the department, the mayor, and the utilities committee of the city council deem necessary to induce
such consumer to locate plant facilities in the city or the city service area, or to locate plant expansions
that will increase the consumer's usage of natural gas at its facilities in the city or the city service area,
rather than locating such plant facilities or plant expansions in other locations not serve by the
department.
(3) Minimum bill. For services rendered under this WACOG rate, the minimum monthly bill shall be one
hundred dollars ($100.00) net with a minimum annual net billing of fifteen thousand dollars
($15,000.00).
(4) Payment terms. All bills for services are due upon presentation and the above‐stated net rates shall
be allowed if payment is made on or before the last day for payment as specified on the bill. Payments
made after that day shall be for the gross amount, which will be greater by ten (10) percent than the net
billing.
(5) Contract period and billing. Contracts shall be for a period of one year with monthly payment of
service taken. The customer shall not be allowed to switch from this contract rate during the period
covered.
(6) Penalty for unauthorized use. In the event a customer uses gas in excess of the daily volumes allowed
by the department during a curtailment period, the customer agrees to pay, in addition to the regular
rate, an amount the department is penalized by the supplier and/or pipeline for the twelve‐month
period immediately following the month in which the breaching of the curtailment agreement occurred.
Each unauthorized use of gas, whether occurring in the same month or in different months of a contract
year, will be subject to a separate penalty.
