Update Plans and Amend Protocols
Harrison County and the cities should update their Emergency Operations Plans and police and
fire response protocols to incorporate provisions for the rail freight movement of hazardous
materials. Such updates and amendments should include:
Protocol in reporting hazardous spills,
Points of contact,
Management procedures for spills,
Safety measures to prevent spills from impacting the public, and
Identification of all agencies that need to be notified in the instance of a hazardous
chemical spill.
Develop a Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan
Consider developing a Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan that aligns the mitigation strategies and
actions between the jurisdictions to provide coordination and resources to address natural
hazards in the region. The Plan would assess hazards, establish mitigation goals and
objectives, and identify projects that will help the region and its constituent local jurisdictions
prepare for, and reduce the impacts of, natural disasters.
