14 How Learning One Thing Can Save Your Life How an Incident Starts with a Mistake and Finishes with Decontamination and Medical Treatment

15 Prevent-It Hazard Awareness Construction Chef

16 The Value of Pre-Emergency Readiness Get ahead of a potentially dangerous circumstance by being ready There is ALWAYS time to do a job safely Listen to the common sense side of your brain

17 Hazard Analysis Command Team Members Muscle memory for the HRT s Quick checklist reminders Focus on life safety Threats to responders Readiness to address off-site concerns

18 Louis Checking out the Float Switch Is he prepared? What is the level of risk and threat? Can we do this safer?

19 Justin Just Got a Call He has been called to the office Picking up a parts order Will be back in about 20 minutes

20 PPE Readiness REALLY! Do we have time to do the job safely?

21 PMP and SOP s Are these manuals written to: Improve worker safety Prevent damage Identify risk and threat Provide a higher degree of situational awareness Properly engage shut-down and operational safety Or are they only there because we have to comply with the law?

22 Stop Stars ALWAYS have time to do there job SAFELY Stop Nothing done quickly when working with high risk equipment is good Think What are the consequences of my actions Aware Surroundings trip/fall, exit, other hazards, risks, or threats React When you see the threat, mitigate and protect yourself Safely ALWAYS with PPE and Back-up Safely React Aware Think

23 Is Louis Ready? Is he one of the STARS? How many times have you acted without PPE? Your need to get the job done over-ruled your safety conscious Many times you can get away with it But one day things go very wrong

24 Louis is DOWN Tripped over the tool box Knocked cold Ammonia vapor is leaking Who will come to his aid?

25 THERE IS ALWAYS TIME TO DO THE JOB SAFELY THERE ARE NO DO-OVERS OR REPLAYS SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE SAFETY YOUR FIRST DUTY YOU HAVE TO PAY IT FORWARD!

26 Sonny Basaldua Americold and ASTI Instructor The real story about this incident.

27 Sonny and Team Engage Pre- Emergency Readiness Just at the Right Time March 2009 Sonny and team began to do the float switch replacement and Sonny suddenly thought THIS IS THE TIME TO DO PRE-EMERGENCY READINESS

28 Sonny and Debra working with a Contractor Suddenly Sonny hears the alarm Sonny calls Louis No Response Sonny calls Justin asks him to check out the alarm

29 Sonny Checks the Alarm and Finds Louis Down and the Level of Ammonia is 1,500 PPM Sonny notifies Scott Goad to take Command Sonny accepts Lead Responder Role Sonny assigns Justin to do Emergency Shut- Down Operations plus get a fan to Louis

30 Scott Accepts Command Does a Size-up Reference the Size-Up Form in his command packet if necessary

31 Scott Takes Command - Plant IC The power of the command system lies in the ability to establish command and to be in position to oversee the action plan. Consistent Cool and Calm Great Communications

32 Debra accepts the Notification Unit Leader Role Immediately begins pre-authorized notifications Organizes the Notification team Moves to command post as a scribe

33 Pre-authorized notification and evacuation details Established for each hazard zone with a Level 1, 2 or 3 Level of Concern

34 Evacuation Checklist Safe movement to rally points Access Control Safety of personnel

35 Evacuation Group Supervisor Reads the plume movement Manages the movement of personnel to safe refuge/rally point locations Sets up Access Control and makes sure that the fire first responders are aware of the command post location

36 Justin Engaging Emergency Shut-Down Emergency fans are working Now to get the portable fan to get fresh air to Louis

37 Justin Muscle Memory at Work! Safely and Methodically The entire operation will take 1 minute to accomplish Set the fan for maximum fresh air flow to Louis Set up for the firefighters to engage rapid entry rescue

38 Justin Checking the Isolation Zone Justin contacts Sonny and recommends a 300 downwind Isolation Zone

39 Plant IC meets first arriving fire engine Performs a C-A-N report Conditions Actions Needs

40 The Firefighters are on the way out with Louis Louis has a chest burn of ammonia liquid Decontamination is needed prior to medical transport

41 The Value of a Command Team ALWAYS have someone in charge Stay available at the command post Understand the value of the team Integrate with Public Safety Consider the value and importance of the Lead Responder and his/her team for engaging emergency shut-down WITHOUT having to worry about making notifications or being concerned about Plant evacuation.

42 Hazard Assessment & Managing Risk Value of Emergency Shut-down, Ventilation, and the Use of Mitigation

43 Emergency Response Strategy Facility Response Mission Objective: Act Quickly! Engage Incident Command team Use your Action Plan Set, monitor, and have discipline for the control zones Responder Priority # 1 Life Safety (Man Down) Life Safety (Evacuated) Life Safety (Yours)

44 Emergency Response Strategy Operational Engagement Evaluate the Hazards Community? Facility? Control the Life Threat Perform Emergency Shut- Down Prepare for Public Safety Review Protective Action Zones (PAZ) Responder Priority # 2 Environmental Impact Air (plumes moving downwind?) Water (Drainage?) Reduce Property Loss Support Business Recovery

45 Stopping the Domino Effect: Discovery 10 Minutes 15 Minutes 30 Minutes Pre Emerg No Pre Emerg No Plan

46 12 Rules of Engagement- Steps 1-4 Hazard Analysis Pre-Emergency Readiness Incidental Response Discovery Steps 5-8 Preliminary Site Evaluation Incident Command Public Safety & Tech Team Arrival Pre- Entry Briefing Steps 9-12 Post-Entry Evaluation Sustained Response Termination of the Event Business Continuity & Recovery Begin

47 Hazard Analysis Of All Hazards, Fear is the worst. -Sam Snead -

48 What Are Your Hazards?

49 Hazard Analysis Summary:

50 Hazards

51 Definition: noun 1. an unavoidable danger or risk, even though often foreseeable: The job was full of Hazards 2. something causing unavoidable danger, peril, risk, or difficulty: the many hazards of the big city. 3. the absence or lack of predictability; chance; uncertainty: There is an element of hazard in the execution of the most painstaking plans. 4. Golf. a bunker, sand trap, or the like, constituting an obstacle. 5. the uncertainty of the result in throwing a die. Hazards are always present, they are inherit to the scene you may be involved in. With ammonia the hazards are the chemical characteristics such as asphyxiating vapor levels, extreme cold, and potential flammability.

52 Risks

53 Definition: noun 1. exposure to the chance of injury or loss; a hazard or dangerous chance: It's not worth the risk. 2. Insurance. a. the hazard or chance of loss. b. the degree of probability of such loss. c. the amount that the insurance company may lose. d. a person or thing with reference to the hazard involved in insuring him, her, or it. e. the type of loss, as life, fire, marine disaster, or earthquake, against which an insurance policy is drawn. verb (used with object) 3. to expose to the chance of injury or loss; hazard: to risk one's life. Risk is a term used by those who would evaluate hazards to establish the level of predicted danger associated with moving into the scene. Generally, the most pressing risks are associated with life, environment, and property. Higher levels of risk are associated with incidents that have unmitigated hazards and/or are being evaluated by those with lower levels of confidence, personal protective equipment, knowledge and experience in managing the hazards and threats.

54 Definition: noun 1. a declaration of an intention or determination to inflict punishment, injury, etc., in retaliation for, or conditionally upon, some action or course; menace: He confessed under the threat of imprisonment. 2. an indication or warning of probable trouble: The threat of a storm was in the air. 3. a person or thing that threatens. verb (used with object), verb (used without object) 4. Archaic. to threaten. Threats are recognized as a hazard that is going to materialize and become an immediate risk. A person judges threat by considering the likely consequence of a situation, such as finding a cloud of ammonia contained within a room where sources of ignition are obviously present. The degree of threat is associated with the person s location, PPE readiness, use of mitigations, and back-up support to manage the threats.

55 Threats

56 Hazard, Risk, or Threat: You Decide:

57

58

59 T or F: Ammonia is more likely to burn when concentrated within a room with a source of ignition >1204 F than when it is released outside. Round Rock Shreveport Salinas 59

60 Working around aerosol PPE Failure T or F: A Level A ensemble should include thermal protective gloves if the responders are working on or in an aerosol release. Level A PPE Level B PPE Level C PPE 5/22/
