Introduction This chapter prescribes DA safety policy for planning emergency response to save lives; protect the health and safety of the public, responders, and recovery workers; and to exchange information. 19–2. Policy a.
The CRM will be applied to all emergency response scenarios to identify the required, appropriate equipment and response procedures to increase efficiency and effectiveness. This is to eliminate controlling adverse and risky conditions that will degrade emergency response operations. b. The National Response Plan and the National Incident Management System contain mechanisms for expedited and proactive Federal, State, local Government support to ensure that critical lifesaving assistance and incident containment capabilities are in place to respond quickly and efficiently to catastrophic incidents.
The emergency preparedness standards prescribed in these sources as well as executive orders, presidential directives, National Incident Management System, and individual State/territory statutes, will be used together with this regulation to formulate an organization’s emergency response plan. c. In addition, the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.38 and 1910.39 will be complied with. 19–3. Recovered chemical warfare material response The RCWM response emergency activities will be conducted to protect public and worker safety and health and the environment in accordance with applicable statutes and implementing regulations.
