(f) Enter the name, title and 24-hour phone number of the designated facility emergency
coordinator in the Contacts tab field.
(g) Enter the main route(s) used to transport chemicals to the facility (from the County
line to the facility) in the notes tab of the Facility Page.
(h) Enter the route(s) used to exit the Vulnerable Zone(s) in the notes tab of the Facility
Page.
(i) Enter any past releases that have occurred in the last five years at the facility in the
notes tab of the Facility Page. Include date, time, chemical name/quantity and
number of persons injured or deaths (this information is available from the facility). If
it is determined that a facility does not have a historical accident record, that shall be
noted.
2. Hazard Identification (CAMEOfm Chemical in Inventory Page)
(a) For each Extremely Hazardous Substance present over the Threshold Planning
Quantity (TPQ), create a Chemical in Inventory page (if a Chemical in Inventory page
hasn’t been created already) and enter the proper chemical name and Chemical
Abstract Service (CAS) number.
(b) On each Chemical in Inventory page created for each Extremely Hazardous
Substance present over the TPQ, enter in pounds (not range codes) the maximum
quantity of each Extremely Hazardous Substance in the Max Daily Amount field of
the Physical State and Quantity tab.
16
(c) Enter the amount (in pounds) of each Extremely Hazardous Substance stored in the
largest container or interconnected containers in the Max amount in largest container
field of the Physical State and Quantity tab (this is the release amount used to
determine the Vulnerable Zone).
(d) Choose the appropriate code from the drop down list for the Type of storage
container (drum, cylinder, tank etc.), storage pressure (ambient, greater than ambient
etc.) and storage temperature (ambient, greater than ambient etc.) of each Extremely
Hazardous Substance in those fields on the Location tab.
(e) For each Extremely Hazardous Substance over TPQ, On the Physical State &
Quantity tab check the appropriate boxes in the Physical State, Hazards and Health
Effects fields (information on the above may be found by clicking on the Datasheet
button which opens the CAMEOfm Chemicals database.)
3. Vulnerability Analysis (CAMEOfm Scenario Page)
(a) For each Extremely Hazardous Substance present over the Threshold Planning
Quantity (TPQ), create a New Scenario page (if a Scenario page hasn’t been created
already) and enter the maximum amount in the largest container or interconnected
containers in the Amount Released field of the Scenario Description tab.
(b) On the Scenario page(s) Scenario Description tab, enter the concentration
percentage in the Concentration field.
(c) On the Scenario page(s) Scenario Description tab, enter the release duration in the
Release Duration field as follows:
(1) Gases – 10 minutes
(2) Powders or solids in solution – 10 minutes
(3) Liquids – No value shall be entered
(d) Enter the proper natural physical state of the chemical at room temperature in the
physical state field. (as specified in CAMEOfm Chemicals)
(e) On the Scenario page(s) Scenario Description tab, use the weather default settings
or, enter average wind speed (don’t enter a value in the Wind From field) and
Urban or Forest is recommended in the Ground Roughness field.
(f) On the Scenario page(s) Scenario Description tab, rate the Risk, Consequences and
Overall Risk of a release occurring at the facility on the bottom of the Scenario Page
(the Risk Assessment should be based upon the Extremely Hazardous Substance,
previous release history, maintenance conditions etc.).
(g) After entering the information noted above on the Scenario Description tab and
clicking on the Estimate Threat Zone Radius button, CAMEOfm will automatically
estimate the extent of the vulnerable zone that may cause injury or death to human
populations following an accidental release.
(h) On the Scenario page(s) notes tab, enter an estimate of the total exposed population
within the vulnerable zone(s).
(i) On the Scenario page(s) notes tab, identify each critical facility by name and
maximum expected occupancy within the vulnerable zone(s) (schools, day cares,
public safety facilities, hospitals, etc.). If there are no critical facilities within the
vulnerable zone(s), that shall be noted.
17
D. Supporting documentation in the form of Site Visit Certification Form, Statement of Determination
or dated letter from the facility identifying the reason the EHS is no longer present shall be
submitted to the Division which lists the facilities for which a hazards analysis was not completed.
E. On-Site Visits
1. Conduct a detailed on-site visit, within the period of this Agreement, of all the facilities
listed in Attachment C, to confirm the accuracy and completeness of information in the
hazards analysis.
2. Submit a completed Hazards Analysis Site Visit Certification Form (Attachment J) for
each facility to the Division. (file name must contain at minimum the SERC number if
applicable and SV – if SERC number is not available facility name and SV – additional
info allowed but not required). Add the site visit certification form to the Site Plan
Tab of the CAMEOfm Facilities Page for each facility visited or contacted.
(a) On-Site visit exception for sulfuric acid (batteries), this exception does NOT
apply to bulk storage of sulfuric acid.
(1) For facilities listed on Attachment C that report the presence of only sulfuric
acid in batteries, an initial on-site visit is required and an on-site visit form
(Attachment J) signed and dated by the facility representative and the
Recipient shall be submitted to the Division.
(2) In Agreements subsequent to the initial on-site visit, the Recipient shall
contact the facility representative by email or telephone to verify the
presence of all extremely hazardous substances. The on-site visit form shall
be signed by the Recipient and identify the date and facility contact
information the Recipient contacted. Another on-site visit is not required in
subsequent Agreements, unless, the facility reports the presence of another
extremely hazardous substance above TPQ.
(3) If a facility representative reports the presence of an extremely hazardous
substance other than sulfuric acid in batteries, subsequent to the period of
Agreement in which the initial site visit was conducted, the Recipient shall
conduct an on-site visit and submit a completed on-site visit form
(Attachment J) to the Division.
3. For each facility for which a hazard analysis is conducted, a site plan must be
added to the site plan tab of the CAMEOfm Facilities Page. (file name must contain at
minimum the SERC number if applicable and SP – if SERC number is not available
facility name and SP – additional info allowed but not required) The site plan shall contain
sufficient information to provide situational awareness and at a minimum include:
(a) Location of major building(s)
(b) Name and location of extremely hazardous substance(s). If multiple extremely
hazardous substances are co-located, noting EHS is acceptable.
(c) Name and location of street(s)
(d) Identify pertinent access and egress point(s)
(e) Note any additional features pertinent to hazmat and medical response
