Risk Management Planning Services

The net result should be a gain for industry and the nearby public in terms of demonstrating the safeguards and mitigation steps built into the storage and use of hazardous chemicals. The conduct of RMP analyses requires skills in terms of process safety management (engineering experience) as well as expertise in air quality analysis to conduct the off site consequence analysis. Sullivan Environmental works in affiliation with Diversified Engineering International (DEI) to provide turn-key services to industry in the area of risk management. Sullivan Environmental has modelers with over 30 years of experience and widely recognized exposure assessment skills. DEI`s principal has over 35 years of experience in process safety management.

Consulting support can be helpful in providing turn-key delivery of a risk management plan. Sometimes all that is required is the use of EPA look-up tables to conduct off-site consequence analysis. In other instances, site-specific modeling is needed to produce reasonable estimates of distances to the established air concentration threshold levels. If look up tables apply to your situation and reasonable endpoint distances are found on this basis, there is no need to spend the extra resources to conduct a refined analysis. On the other hand, if site-specific modeling is needed, it is important that it is conducted with sufficient understanding to avoid adverse consequences such as underestimating risk and or modeling and excessively conservative analysis.
