<br />Coordinator will provide the necessary emergency response information on the facility to the <br />planning committee. <br /> <br />1. Notification of a release of a hazardous material may be provided by anyone who <br />recognizes that a release has occurred. The telephone will be the primary means of alerting for <br />any hazardous material incident; however, other methods including radio and alarm systems <br />may be used for initial notification if accepted by the LEPC. Notification of adjoining counties <br />and/or jurisdictions will be made by the county Emergency Management Department as <br />necessary. See Annex B for the recommended notification procedure. <br />J. Warning and notification of the public, including special populations such as the hearing <br />impaired, will be accomplished in accordance with Annex C, Notification and Warning, of the <br />Cabarrus County Emergency Operations Plan. Specific procedures for warning that have been <br />developed for the hazard zones surrounding identified fixed facilities supersede the provisions <br />of Annex C. <br /> <br />K. As necessary, emergency vehicles with effective sound devices (sirens and/or public <br />address systems) will be used as a public alerting system. If a fixed notification system is in <br />place around the facility or emergency area the vehicles may be used as a backup system. The <br />vehicles will be dispatched within the evacuation area and will stop at each 1/4 mile in <br />populated areas and at each house or group of houses that are more than 1/4 mile apart. The <br />emergency vehicle will notify the public ofthe situation and recommend protective action. <br />Each route should be run twice if possible to ensure receipt ofthe initial warning by all <br />members ofthe community. The second run, or back-run, will be to confirm alert and <br />notification, Back -runs need only stop at houses that are dark at night or where it is apparent <br />that people are not complying with instructions. If necessary, door-to-door alerting will be <br />accomplished during the second run. <br /> <br />IV. ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES <br /> <br />A. General: The head of each agency involved in hazardous materials emergency response <br />is responsible for the safety of its personnel. Training, emergency response procedures, and <br />medical surveillance shall comply with the provisions of the North Carolina Hazardous Waste <br />Operations and Emergency Response Standard (13 NCAC 7C.0101 (a)(26)). Topics addressed <br />shall include but are not limited to the dangers of hazardous materials, emergency response <br />techniques, protective measures, protective clothing and equipment, and medical monitoring of <br />personnel. In this regard, the head of each agency is, therefore, responsible for developing, <br />maintaining, and updating training programs and standard operating procedures for his agency. <br /> <br />B.
