The results of that evaluation are shown in Table 11-1 below. | Table 11-1 Potential Site Emergencies | | | | --- | --- | --- | | Type of Emergency | Source of Emergency | Location of Source | | (Identify each of the potential emergencies that may occur onsite. Use a separate row for each type of emergency.) | (Identify the source of each emergency. Be as specific as possible.) | (Identify the location or multiple locations for each emergency. For example, if a chemical is stored in several places, list every location in one row. ) | | | | | | | | | 11.2 On-Site Emergency Response Equipment Emergency procedures may require specialized equipment to facilitate worker rescue, contamination control and reduction, or post-emergency clean-up. Emergency response equipment stocked on this site is listed in Table 11-2. The equipment inventory and storage locations are based on the potential emergencies described in Table 11-1. This equipment inventory is designed to meet on-site emergency response needs and any specialized equipment needs that off-site responders might require because of the hazards at this site. Any additional PPE required and stocked for emergency response is also listed in Table 11-2 below. During an emergency, the Emergency Response Coordinator (if you have not included this role, identify the name and/or title of the person with the following responsibility) is responsible for specifying the level of PPE required for emergency response. At a minimum, personal protective equipment used by emergency responders will comply with Chapter 6, Personal Protective Equipment, of this HASP. Emergency response equipment is inspected at regular intervals and maintained in good working order. The equipment inventory is replenished as necessary to maintain response capabilities. | Table 11-2 Emergency Equipment & Emergency PPE | | | | --- | --- | --- | | Emergency Equipment | | | | Specific Type | Quantity Stocked | Location Stored | | (Use a separate row for each type of equipment stored, like 6ft oil pig, or non-sparking shovel) | (insert number) | (insert location) | | | | | | | | | | Emergency PPE | | | | Specific Type | Quan
