Definitions applicable to the flow chart. (See WAC 296-824-800 for additional definitions used in the chapter):

Definitions applicable to the flow chart:

Danger area - areas w here conditions pose a serious danger to

em ployees, such as areas w here:

Im m ediately dangerous to life or health (ID LH ) conditions could exist

OR

H igh levels of exposure to toxic substances could exist

OR

There is a potential for exceeding the low er explosive lim it (LEL), also

know n as the low er flam m ability lim it (LFL), of a substance.

Emergency response - a response to an anticipated release of a

hazardous sub stance that is, or could becom e, an uncontrolled

r e l e a s e .

Hazardous substance - any biological, radiological, or chem ical

substance that can have adverse effects on hum ans (see W A C 296-824-

800 for a m ore specific definition).

Immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH) - any

atm ospheric condition that w ould:

C ause an im m ediate threat to life

C ause p erm anent or delayed ad verse health effects

Interfere w ith an em ployee’s ability to escape.

— Continued —



0/02



Incidental release -a release that can b e safely controlled at the

tim e of the release and doesn’t have the p otential to b ecom e an

uncontrolled release .

Exam ple of a situation that results in an incidental release:

A tanker truck is receiving a load of hazardous liquid w hen a leak

occurs. The d river know s the only hazard from the liquid is m inor skin

irritation. The em ployer has trained the driver on proced ures and

provided equipm ent to use for a release of this q uantity. The driver puts

on skin protection and stops the leak. A sp ill kit is used to contain,

absorb, and pick up the spilled m aterial for disposal.

Limited action - action necessary to:

Secure an operation during em ergency responses

OR

Prevent an incident from increasing in severity.

Exam ples include shutting dow n p rocesses and closing em ergency

valves.

Release -a spill, leak, or other type of hazardous substance discharge.

— Continued —





Uncontrolled rele ase - a release w here significant safety and

health risks could be created . Releases of hazardous sub stances that

are either incidental or couldn’t create a safety or health hazard (i.e., fire,

explosion or chem ical exposure) aren’t considered to be uncontrolled

releases.

Exam ples of conditions that could create a significant safety and health

risk:

Large-quantity releases

Sm all-releases that could be highly toxic

Potentially contam inated individuals arriving at hosp itals

A irborne exposures that could exceed a W ISH A perm issible exp osure

lim it or a published exposure lim it and em ployees aren’t adequately

trained or equipped to control the release.

Exam ple of an uncontrolled release:

A forklift driver knocks over a container of a solvent-based liquid,

releasing the contents onto the w arehouse floor. The driver has b een

trained to recog nize the vap or is flam m ab le and m od erately toxic w hen

inhaled. The d river hasn’t been trained or provided appropriate

equipm ent to address this type of spill. In this situation, it isn’t safe for

the driver to attem pt a response. The d river need s to notify som eone of

the release so an em ergency resp onse can be initiated .

Workplace -

A fixed facility

OR

A tem porary location (such as a traffic corridor)

OR

Locations w here em ployees respond to em ergencies.

• Potentially contam inated individuals arriving at hospitals

• A irborne exp osures that could exceed a W ISH A perm issible exposure lim it or

Exam ple of an uncontrolled release:

A forklift driver knocks over a container of a solvent-based liquid, releasing the

contents onto the w arehouse floor. The driver has been trained to recognize the

vapor is flam m able and m oderately toxic w hen inhaled. The driver hasn’t been

trained or provided appropriate equipm ent to address this type of spill. In this

Follow all of the steps b elow to plan forEACH TYPEEACH TYPEEACH TYPEEACH TYPEEA C H TY PE of uncontrolled release that could occur.

Step 1. Identify expected hazards.

• H azard assessm ent need s to be done by an ind ividual w ho has ap prop riate technical know led ge

and experience.

• This inform ation form s the basis for selection of personal protective eq uipm ent (PPE) and

developm ent of em ergency response procedures.

• If confined spaces could exist site-specific evaluations and procedures m ay be necessary. Follow

req uirem ents in C hapter 296-62 W A C , Part M to identify confined spaces.

Step 2. Make sure all potential participants are involved in planning,whether the response involves only your employees or other

employees at the site. Make a written agreement covering all of the

following:

H ow potential participants w ill be notified w hen a release occurs. B e specific

ab out the com m unication system to be used (for exam ple: m ethod to use, and

state or federal officials, and other affected em ployers in the vicinity.



Step 3. Describe how your employees will be alerted to the release.

· Exam ples of m ethods to use for alerting em ployees includ e ded icated radio freq uencies,

siren blasts, and alarm s linked to m onitoring devices.

Step 4. Plan and describe your site’s evacuation procedures. Specify:

Prim ary and alternate escape routes

W ho w ill assist in evacuating em ployees, including physically challenged

em ployees

employees (for example, process operators) need to control or shut

down critical processes before designated responders arrive.

· If actions req uire these em ployees to enter the danger area they need to b e

D evelop proced ures for these em ployees, includ ing :

· Identifying circum stances that trigger such actions

· Specifying how selected em ployees w ill be notified to start the proced ures

D eterm ine notification procedures

Specify w here the m ed ical assistance area w ill be located

Include provisions for transp orting individuals, if necessary

Provide training and proper equipm ent to in-house EM S em ployees

Step 11. Develop written emergency response procedures that:

Specify how all response participants w ill com m unicate in joint operations

and describe the chain of com m and

D escribe m ethods for securing and controlling access to the site (i.e.,

Identify procedures for com pleting the response

Step 12. Plan and conduct on-site drills at least once a year to determine if

your evacuation and notification procedures are sufficient. Drills

should include all emergecny response participants who will be

involved in a response.
