Hazardous Material Release Mitigation , Implementation Strategies and Emergency Response Plan
Strategy 1 : Promote public awareness of potential hazards associated with handling of toxic and hazardous substances .
● Co-operate with the local community , local Government , and Federal agencies to develop and
● disseminate information about the system and location .
● Types and amounts of hazardous substances to be handled by the plant .
● Communicate Emergency Response Plan to the local community , local Government , and Federal agencies with particular emphasis on hazardous material spills , fire , and explosion .
Strategy 2 : Promote public knowledge of how to react to accidental hazardous material release , plant fire and explosion .
● Co-operate with the local community , local Government , and Federal agencies to develop and
● disseminate information about the system and location .
● Types and amounts of hazardous substances to be handled by the plant .
● Communicate Emergency Response Plan to the local community , local Government , and Federal agencies with particular emphasis on hazardous material spill , fire , and explosion .
● Develop public education programmes to teach plant staff and the community about the sheltering provided and develop emergency preparedness plans and kits .
● Develop evacuation plans for all areas within the plant and the potentially impacted community areas and provide public education about where to find evacuation information .
Strategy 3 : Develop emergency response capabilities in the event of an accidental discharge of toxic or hazardous substances .
● Support training programmes for first responders particularly process plant first aiders and the plant fire departments .
● The emergency response teams will be capable of responding at the technician level , with support from additional responders trained to operations level .
● Conduct a hazardous materials risk analysis specific to the materials used and transported within and outside the plant .
● The construction phase emergency response plan will form an integral part of the site .
● The operations phase emergency response plan will form an integral part of the Plant Operations and Maintenance Manual to be completed prior to Plant Commissioning – this document will be issued to and adhered to by all the staff working at the plant .
Management Review
The operations phase emergency response plan will form an integral part of the Plant Operations and Maintenance Manual will be completed prior to Plant Commissioning – this document will be issued to and adhered to by all the staff working at the plant .
● Types and amounts of hazardous substances to be handled by the plant .
● Communicate Emergency Response Plan to the local community , local government , and federal agencies with particular emphasis on hazardous material spill , fire , and explosion .
