It covers spill response procedures, emergency response (to fires, explosions, natural events, chemicals, bomb threats), hazardous chemical response, and evacuation routes for all of these. Notification procedures are outlined at the local and state level depending upon the emergency. This integrated plan replaces the confusion of having a separate plan for each federal or state law or regulation with emergency response requirements. Plan development is part of a joint effort between management, consultant, and employees, with training on the details of the plan when completed.
