This paper will focus on emergency preplanning and prevention activities at fixed facilities. Three main topics will be explored using a case study based on a large scale fire event: The session will address the need for emergency preplans, prevention planning, key planning elements, as well as coordination of preplans with the community.
Emergency Services, which includes fire department, emergency medical services, emergency management agencies, and HAZMAT, are key members of the community that respond to fixed facilities during an emergency. To assist attendees with emergency planning, a matrix was developed to outline key plan elements and the actions that can be taken before and during an incident with emergency services to increase the chances of a successful failure.
