B. B. In a response to an emergency situation that involves different emergency services (e.g., <br />fire, rescue, law enforcement, etc.), the Incident Commander coordinates all units, regardless <br />of service. <br />C. If a fire or threat of fire exists during an emergency, the Fire Chief or a designee of the <br />district affected becomes the Incident Commander. The Incident Commander coordinates all <br />activities on -site and remains in contact with the Cabarrus County Emergency Operations <br />Center (EOC). The initial Incident Commander is the ranking fire officer from the affected <br />area. <br />D. The local fire services and the Forest Service establish a unified command when a wildland <br />fire threatens structures. <br />E. If no fire or threat of fire exists, the Chiefs of emergency services on the scene determine <br />incident command. Normally, the agency with the most involvement in the emergency <br />response operation assumes command at the site. <br />F. Under the provisions of the North Carolina Hazardous Material Right -to -Know Law, local <br />Fire Chiefs survey facilities within their jurisdictions to identify types and volumes of <br />hazardous materials located there. The Fire Marshal maintains this data for all the facilities <br />within the County. Fire service leaders use this information to develop response plans for <br />hazardous materials accidents within the district. <br />G. The Fire Marshal coordinates the local facility emergency response plans with the County <br />Emergency Operations Plan and provides this information to the appropriate fire <br />departments. <br />H. The Cabarrus County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) has the responsibility <br />for the development of the County response plan for a hazardous material release. The LEPC <br />also reviews site - specific plans for industries that pose a significant hazard to the community <br />because of the extremely hazardous materials (EHS) on site. <br />I. When responding to a situation involving hazardous materials, the fire departments take all <br />necessary precautions to protect fire service personnel and the other emergency workers <br />involved at the site. The units responding observe department standard operating procedures <br />and react based on their level of training for that type of event. <br />J. The facility using the hazardous material or the company transporting such material provides <br />the initial alert that a release of hazardous material has occurred. The facility or company <br />involved notifies the 911 communications center and gives the type and quantity of the <br />material released, if known. As the emergency response develops, emergency services <br />personnel on the scene determine the amount and extent of the release and confirm <br />identification of the material released. <br />IV.
