SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

RESIST RUSHING IN!

APPROACH CAUTIOUSLY FROM UPWIND, UPHILL AND/OR UPSTREAM:

• Stay clear of Vapor, Fumes, Smoke and Spills.

• Keep vehicle at a safe distance from the scene.

SECURE THE SCENE:

• Isolate the area and protect yourself and others.

IDENTIFY THE HAZARDS USING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:

• Placards

• Container labels

• Shipping papers

• Rail Car and Road Trailer Identification Chart

• Safety Data Sheets (SDS)

• Knowledge of persons on scene

• Consult applicable guide page

ASSESS THE SITUATION:

• Is there a fire, a spill or a leak?

• What are the weather conditions?

• What is the terrain like?

• Who/what is at risk: people, property or the environment?

• What actions should be taken – evacuation, shelter-in-place or dike?

• What resources (human and equipment) are required?

• What can be done immediately?

OBTAIN HELP:

• Advise your headquarters to notify responsible agencies and call for assistance from

qualified personnel.

RESPOND:

• Enter only when wearing appropriate protective gear.

• Rescue attempts and protecting property must be weighed against you becoming

part of the problem.

• Establish a command post and lines of communication.

• Continually reassess the situation and modify response accordingly.

• Consider safety of people in the immediate area first, including your own safety.

ABOVE ALL: Do not assume that gases or vapors are harmless because of lack of a

smell – odorless gases or vapors may be harmful. Use CAUTION when handling empty

containers because they may still present hazards until they are cleaned and purged of

all residues.

HAZARD CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM

The hazard class of hazardous materials/dangerous goods is indicated either by its class (or

division) number or name. Placards are used to identify the class or division of a material.

The hazard class or division number must be displayed in the lower corner of a placard and

is required for both primary and subsidiary hazard classes and divisions, if applicable. For

other than Class 7 placards, text indicating a hazard (for example, “CORROSIVE”) is not

required. Text is shown only in the U.S. The hazard class or division number and subsidiary

hazard classes or division numbers placed in parentheses (when applicable), must appear

on the shipping paper after each proper shipping name.

Class 1 - Explosives

Division 1.1 Explosives which have a mass explosion hazard

Division 1.2 Explosives which have a projection hazard but not a mass

explosion hazard

Division 1.3 Explosives which have a fire hazard and either a minor blast

hazard or a minor projection hazard or both, but not a mass

explosion hazard

Division 1.4 Explosives which present no significant hazard

Division 1.5 Very insensitive explosives with a mass explosion hazard

Division 1.6 Extremely insensitive articles which do not have a mass

explosion hazard

Class 2 - Gases

Division 2.1 Flammable gases

Division 2.2 Non-flammable, non-toxic* gases

Division 2.3 Toxic* gases

Class 3 - Flammable liquids (and Combustible liquids [U.S.])

Class 4 - Flammable solids; Substances liable to spontaneous combustion;

Substances which, on contact with water, emit flammable gases

Division 4.1 Flammable solids, self-reactive substances and solid

desensitized explosives

Division 4.2 Substances liable to spontaneous combustion

Division 4.3 Substances which in contact with water emit flammable gases

Class 5 - Oxidizing substances and Organic peroxides

Division 5.1 Oxidizing substances

Division 5.2 Organic peroxides

Class 6 - Toxic* substances and Infectious substances

Division 6.1 Toxic* substances

Division 6.2 Infectious substances

Class 7 - Radioactive materials

Class 8 - Corrosive substances

Class 9 - Miscellaneous hazardous materials/dangerous goods and articles

* The words “poison” or “poisonous” are synonymous with the word “toxic”.

INTRODUCTION TO THE TABLE OF MARKINGS, LABELS AND PLACARDS

USE THIS TABLE ONLY WHEN THE ID NUMBER OR PROPER SHIPPING NAME IS NOT

AVAILABLE.

The next two pages display the placards used on transport vehicles carrying hazardous

materials/dangerous goods with the applicable reference GUIDE circled. Follow these steps:

1. Approach scene from upwind, uphill and/or upstream at a safe distance to safely

identify and/or read the placard or orange panel. Use binoculars if available.

2. Match the vehicle placard(s) with one of the placards displayed on the next

two pages.

3. Consult the circled guide number associated with the placard. Use that guide

information for now. For example:

• Use GUIDE

127

for a FLAMMABLE (Class 3) placard

• Use GUIDE

153

for a CORROSIVE (Class 8) placard

• Use

GUIDE

111

when the DANGER or DANGEROUS placard is displayed or the

nature of the spilled, leaking or burning material is not known. Also use this GUIDE

when the presence of hazardous materials/dangerous goods is suspected but no

placards can be seen.

If multiple placards point to more than one guide, initially use the most conservative

guide (i.e., the guide requiring the greatest degree of protective actions).

4. Guides associated with the placards provide the most significant risk and/or

hazard information.

5. When specific information, such as ID number or proper shipping name, becomes

available, the more specific Guide recommended for that material must be

consulted.

6. A single asterisk (*) on orange placards represents an explosive's compatibility

group letter. The asterisk must be replaced with the appropriate compatibility

group letter. Refer to the Glossary (page 375).

7. Double asterisks (**) on orange placards represent the division of the explosive.

The double asterisks must be replaced with the appropriate division number.

RAIL CAR IDENTIFICATION CHART

CAUTION: Emergency response personnel must be aware that rail tank cars vary widely in

construction, fittings and purpose. Tank cars could transport products that may be solids, liquids

or gases. The products may be under pressure. It is essential that products be identified by

consulting shipping papers or train consist or contacting dispatch centers before emergency

response is initiated. The information stenciled on the sides or ends of tank cars, as illustrated

below, may be used to identify the product utilizing:

a. the commodity name shown;

b. the other information shown, especially reporting marks and car number which, when

supplied to a dispatch center, will facilitate the identification of the product.

The recommended guides should be considered as last resort if the material cannot

be identified by any other means.

ROAD TRAILER IDENTIFICATION CHART

CAUTION: This chart depicts only the most general shapes of road trailers and cargo transport

units. Emergency response personnel must be aware that there are many variations of road

trailers, not illustrated below, that are used for shipping chemical products. Many intermodal

tanks that transport liquids, solids, liquefied compressed gases, and refrigerated liquefied

gases have similar silhouettes. The suggested guides are for the most hazardous products

that may be transported in these trailer types.

WARNING : Road trailers may be jacketed, the cross-section may look different than shown

and external ring stiffeners would be invisible.

NOTE: An emergency shut-off valve is commonly found at the front of the tank, near the

driver door.

The recommended guides should be considered as last resort if the material cannot

be identified by any other means.

GLOBALLY HARMONIZED SYSTEM OF CLASSIFICATION

AND LABELING OF CHEMICALS (GHS)

(May be found on means of containment during transport)

The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) is an

international guideline published by the United Nations. The GHS aims to harmonize the

classification and labeling systems for all sectors involved in the life cycle of a chemical

(production, storage, transport, workplace use, consumer use and presence in the

environment).

The GHS has nine symbols used to convey specific physical, health and environmental

hazard information. These symbols are part of a pictogram that is diamond shaped and

includes the GHS symbol in black on a white background with a red frame. The pictogram is

part of the GHS label, which also includes the following information:

• Signal word

• Hazard statement

• Precautionary statements

• Product identifier

• Supplier identification

GHS pictograms are similar in shape to transport labels; however, transport labels have

backgrounds of different colors.

The elements of the GHS that address signal words and hazard statements are not

expected to be adopted in the transport sector. For substances and mixtures covered by

the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Model Regulations, the

transport labels for physical hazards will have precedence. In transport, a GHS pictogram

for the same (or lesser) hazard as the one reflected by the transport label or placard should

not be present, but it could exist on the package.

Examples of GHS labeling:

Outer Packaging: Box with

flammable liquid transport label

Inner Packaging: Plastic

bottle with GHS hazard

warning label

Single Packaging: 200 L

(55 US gallons) drum with

a flammable liquid transport

label combined with GHS

hazard warning label

Page 17

In some cases, such as on drums or international bulk containers (IBCs), which must

address information for all sectors, the GHS label may be found in addition to the required

transport labels and placards. Both types of labels (GHS and transport) will differ in a way

that will make them easy to identify during an emergency.

Hazard identification numbers, utilized under European and some South American regulations,

may be found in the top half of an orange panel on some intermodal bulk containers.

The 4-digit ID number is in the bottom half of the orange panel.

1203

The hazard identification number in the top half of the orange panel consists of two or

three digits. In general, the digits indicate the following hazards:

2 - Emission of gas due to pressure or chemical reaction

3 - Flammability of liquids (vapors) and gases or self-heating liquid

4 - Flammability of solids or self-heating solid

5 - Oxidizing (fire-intensifying) effect

6 - Toxicity or risk of infection

7 - Radioactivity

8 - Corrosivity

9 - Risk of spontaneous violent reaction

NOTE: The risk of spontaneous violent reaction within the meaning of digit 9 includes the

possibility, due to the nature of a substance, of a risk of explosion, disintegration

and polymerization reaction followed by the release of considerable heat or

flammable and/or toxic gases.

• Doubling of a digit indicates an intensification of that particular hazard (i.e., 33,

66, 88).

• Where the hazard associated with a substance can be adequately indicated by a

single digit, the digit is followed by a zero (i.e., 30, 40, 50).

• A hazard identification number prefixed by the letter “X” indicates that the

substance will react dangerously with water (i.e., X88).

PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION

In North America, hazardous materials/dangerous goods are commonly transported through

millions of miles of pipelines and related structures. Products transported include natural gas,

natural gas liquids, crude oil, gasoline, diesel fuel, anhydrous ammonia, carbon dioxide, jet

fuel, and other commodities. Although most pipelines are buried, often there are aboveground

structures and markers indicating the presence of pipelines. First responders should be

aware of the pipelines in their jurisdictions, the products they transport, and the operators

responsible for those pipelines. Proactive relationships can be beneficial in the safe and

effective management of pipeline emergencies.

Types of Pipelines

Natural Gas Pipelines

Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines

Large-diameter, steel pipelines transport flammable natural gas (toxic and non-toxic) at

very high pressures ranging from 200 to 1,500 psi*. Natural gas in transmission pipelines is

odorless — generally not odorized with mercaptan (the “rotten egg” smell); however, natural

gas containing hydrogen sulfide (H

S) will have a distinct “rotten egg” odor.

Natural Gas Distribution Pipelines

Natural gas is delivered directly to customers via distribution pipelines. These pipelines are

typically smaller-diameter, lower-pressure pipelines constructed of steel, plastic, or cast

iron. Natural gas in distribution pipelines is odorized with mercaptan (the “rotten egg” smell).

Natural Gas-Gathering and Natural Gas Well Production Pipelines

Natural gas-gathering/well production pipelines collect “raw” natural gas from wellheads and

transport the product to gas-processing and/or gas-treating plants. These gathering pipelines

carry natural gas mixed with some quantity of natural gas liquids, water, and, in some areas,

contaminants such as toxic hydrogen sulfide (H

S). Natural gas in these pipelines is not

odorized with mercaptan (the “rotten egg” smell); however, natural gas that contains hydrogen

sulfide (H

S) will have a distinct “rotten egg” odor.

Hazardous Liquid and Highly Volatile Liquid Pipelines

Hazardous Liquid Pipelines

Crude oil, refined petroleum products (e.g. gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel or diesel) and hazardous

liquids (e.g. anhydrous ammonia or ethanol) are often transported by pipelines.

Many liquid petroleum pipelines transport different types of liquid petroleum in the same

pipeline. To do so, the pipeline operator sends different products in “batches.” For example, an

operator could send gasoline for several hours, and then switch to jet fuels, before switching

to diesel fuel.

* Data from http://naturalgas.org/naturalgas/transport/

Page 23

Highly Volatile Liquid (HVL) Pipelines

HVL pipelines transport hazardous liquids which will form a vapor cloud when released to

the atmosphere and which have a vapor pressure exceeding 276 KPa (40 psia) at 37.8°C

(100°F). An example of an HVL is liquid propane.

Pipeline Markers

Since pipelines are usually buried underground, pipeline markers are used to indicate their

presence in an area along the pipeline route. Of the three types of pipelines typically buried

underground — distribution, gathering, and transmission — only transmission pipelines are

marked with the following above-ground markers used to indicate their route.

Markers warn that a transmission pipeline is located in the area, identify the product

transported in the line, and provide the name and telephone number of the pipeline operator

to call. Markers and warning signs are located at frequent intervals along natural gas and

liquid transmission pipeline rights-of-way, and are located at prominent points such as where

pipelines intersect streets, highways, railways, or waterways.

Pipeline markers only indicate the presence of a pipeline—they do not indicate the exact

location of the pipeline. Pipeline locations within a right-of-way may vary along its length and

there may be multiple pipelines located in the same right-of-way.

NOTE:

• Markers for pipelines transporting materials containing dangerous levels of hydrogen

sulfide (H

S) may have markers that say: “Sour” or “Poison.”

• Natural gas distribution pipelines are not marked with above-ground signs.

• Gathering/production pipelines are often not marked with above-ground signs.

Indications of Pipeline Leaks and Ruptures

Pipeline releases can range from relatively minor leaks to catastrophic ruptures. It is important

to remember that gases and liquids behave differently once they are released from a pipeline.

Generally, the following could be indications of a pipeline leak or rupture:

• Hissing, roaring, or explosive sound

• Flames appearing from the ground or water (perhaps very large flames)

• Vapor cloud/fog/mist

• Dirt/debris/water blowing out of the ground

• Liquids bubbling up from the ground or bubbling in water

• Distinctive, unusually strong odor of rotten eggs, mercaptan (an odorant in some

natural gas pipelines), skunk, or petroleum

• Discolored/dead vegetation or discolored snow above a pipeline right-of-way

• Oil slick or sheen on flowing/standing water

• An area of frozen ground in the summer

• An unusual area of melted snow in the winter

Page 25

General Considerations for Responding to a Pipeline Emergency

• Safety First! Your safety and the safety of the community you protect is top priority.

Remember to approach a pipeline incident from upwind, uphill, and upstream while using

air monitoring equipment to detect for the presence of explosive and/or toxic levels of

hazardous materials/dangerous goods.

– Always wear proper personal protective equipment. Be prepared for a flash fire. Use

shielding to protect first responders in the event of an explosion. Use respiratory

protection.

– Never operate pipeline valves (except in coordination with the pipeline operator);

this could make the incident worse and put you and others in danger.

– Never attempt to extinguish a pipeline fire before supply is shut off; this could result

in the accumulation of a large flammable/explosive vapor cloud or liquid pool that

could make the incident worse and put you and others in danger.

– Do not walk or drive into a vapor cloud in an attempt to identify the product(s)

involved.

– Do not park over manholes or storm drains.

– Do not approach the scene with vehicles or mechanical equipment until the isolation

zones have been established (vehicles are a potential ignition source).

• Secure the site and determine a plan to evacuate or shelter-in-place. Work with other

responders to deny entry to an area.

• Identify the product and the operator. If safe to do so, you may be able to identify the

product based on its characteristics or other external clues. Look for pipeline markers

indicating the product, operator of the pipeline, and their emergency contact information.

Pipelines transport many different types of products, including gases, liquids, and highly

volatile liquids that are in a liquid state inside the pipeline but in a gaseous state if

released from the pipeline. The vapor density of gases determines if they rise or sink in

air. Viscosity and specific gravity also are important characteristics of hazardous liquids

to consider. Identification of the product also will help you determine the appropriate

distance for isolation of the affected area.

• Notify the pipeline operator using the emergency contact information on the pipeline

marker or other contact information you may have received from the pipeline operator.

The pipeline operator will be a resource to you in the response.

• Establish a command post. Implement the Incident Command Structure, as needed,

and be prepared to implement a Unified Command as additional stakeholders and

resources arrive.

Page 26

Other Important Considerations

• If no flames are present, do not introduce ignition sources such as open flames, running

vehicles, or electrical equipment (cell phones, pagers, two-way radios, lights, garage

door openers, fans, door bells, etc.).

• Abandon any equipment used in or near the area of the pipeline release.

• If there is no risk to your safety or the safety of others, move far enough away from any

noise coming from the pipeline to allow for normal conversation.

• Pipelines often are close to other public utilities, railroads, and highways; these can be

impacted by pipeline releases or may be potential ignition sources.

• Natural gas can migrate underground from the source of a release to other areas via the

path of least resistance (including through sewers, water lines, and geologic formations).

Considerations for Establishing Protective Action Distances

• Type of product

– If you know the material involved, identify the three-digit guide number by looking up

the name in the alphabetical list (blue-bordered pages), then using the three-digit

guide number, consult the recommendations in the assigned guide.

• Pressure and diameter of pipe (the pipeline operator can tell you this if you don’t already

know it)

• Timing of valve closure by the pipeline operator (quickly for automated valves; longer

for manually operated valves)

• Dissipation time of the product in the pipeline once valves are closed

• Ability to conduct atmospheric monitoring and/or air sampling

• Weather (wind direction, etc.)

• Local variables such as topography, population density, demographics, and fire

suppression methods available

• Nearby building construction material/density

• Natural and man-made barriers (such as highways, railroads, rivers, etc.)

INTRODUCTION TO YELLOW PAGES

For entries highlighted in green follow these steps:

• IF THERE IS NO FIRE:

- Go directly to Table 1 (green-bordered pages)

- Look up the ID number and name of material

- Identify initial isolation and protective action distances

- Also consult the appropriate Orange Guide

• IF A FIRE IS INVOLVED:

- Use the appropriate Orange Guide for EVACUATION distances

- Also protect in downwind direction according to Table 1 for residual

material release

Note 1: If the name in Table 1 is shown with (when spilled in water), these materials

produce large amounts of Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) (PIH in the US) gases

when spilled in water. Some Water Reactive materials are also TIH materials

themselves (e.g., UN1746 (Bromine trifluoride), UN1836 (Thionyl chloride)). In

these instances, two entries are provided in Table 1 for land-based and water-

based spills. If a water-reactive material only has one entry in Table 1 for (when

spilled in water) and the product is NOT spilled in water, Table 1 and Table 2 do

not apply. You will find safe distances in the appropriate orange-bordered guide.

Note 2: Explosives are not individually listed by their ID number because in an emergency

situation, the response will be based only on the division of the explosive, not on

the individual explosive.

For divisions 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.5, refer to GUIDE 112.

For divisions 1.4 and 1.6, refer to GUIDE 114.

Note 3: Chemical warfare agents do not have an assigned ID number because they are

not commercially transported. In an emergency situation, the assigned orange

guide will provide guidance for the initial response. Also consult “Criminal or

Terrorist Use of Chemical, Biological and Radiological Agents”, pp. 368 to 372.

NOTES

Page 92

INTRODUCTION TO BLUE PAGES

For entries highlighted in green follow these steps:

• IF THERE IS NO FIRE:

- Go directly to Table 1 (green-bordered pages)

- Look up the ID number and name of material

- Identify initial isolation and protective action distances

- Also consult the appropriate Orange Guide

• IF A FIRE IS INVOLVED:

- Use the appropriate Orange Guide for EVACUATION distances

- Also protect in downwind direction according to Table 1 for residual

material release

Note 1: If the name in Table 1 is shown with (when spilled in water), these materials produce

large amounts of Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) (PIH in the US) gases when spilled in

water. Some Water Reactive materials are also TIH materials themselves (e.g., UN1746

(Bromine trifluoride), UN1836 (Thionyl chloride)). In these instances, two entries are

provided in Table 1 for land-based and water-based spills. If a water-reactive material

only has one entry in Table 1 for (when spilled in water) and the product is NOT

spilled in water, Table 1 and Table 2 do not apply. You will find safe distances in the

appropriate orange-bordered guide.

Note 2: Explosives are not individually listed by their name because in an emergency situation,

the response will be based only on the division of the explosive, not on the individual

explosive.

For divisions 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.5, refer to GUIDE 112.

For divisions 1.4 and 1.6, refer to GUIDE 114.

Note 3: Chemical warfare agents do not have an assigned ID number because they are not

commercially transported. In an emergency situation, the assigned orange guide will

provide guidance for the initial response. Also consult “Criminal or Terrorist Use of

Chemical, Biological and Radiological Agents”, pp. 368 to 372.

HOW TO USE THE ORANGE GUIDES

GUIDE NUMBER AND TITLE

• The guide title identifies the general hazards associated with the materials

in this Guide.

POTENTIAL HAZARDS

• Emergency responders should consult this section first!

• Describes the material hazard in terms of FIRE OR EXPLOSION and HEALTH

effects upon exposure.

• The primary potential hazard is listed first.

• Allows the responders to make decisions to protect the emergency response

team, and the surrounding population.

ERG 2020

Page 168

GUIDE

117

POTENTIAL HAZARDS

HEALTH

• TOXIC; Extremely Hazardous.

• May be fatal if inhaled or absorbed through skin.

• Initial odor may be irritating or foul and may deaden your sense of smell.

• Contact with gas or liqueﬁed gas may cause burns, severe injury and/or frostbite.

• Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.

• Runoff from ﬁre control or dilution water may cause environmental contamination.

FIRE OR EXPLOSION

• These materials are extremely ﬂammable.

• May form explosive mixtures with air.

• May be ignited by heat, sparks or ﬂames.

• Vapors from liqueﬁed gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground.

• Vapors may travel to source of ignition and ﬂash back.

• Those substances designated with a (P) may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a ﬁre.

• Runoff may create ﬁre or explosion hazard.

• Cylinders exposed to ﬁre may vent and release toxic and ﬂammable gas through pressure relief devices.

• Containers may explode when heated.

• Ruptured cylinders may rocket.

PUBLIC SAFETY

• CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper

not available or no answer, refer to appropriate telephone number listed on the inside back cover.

• Keep unauthorized personnel away.

• Stay upwind, uphill and/or upstream.

• Many gases are heavier than air and will spread along the ground and collect in low or conﬁned areas

(sewers, basements, tanks, etc.).

• Ventilate closed spaces before entering, but only if properly trained and equipped.

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING

• Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

• Wear chemical protective clothing that is speciﬁcally recommended by the manufacturer when there is

NO RISK OF FIRE.

• Structural ﬁreﬁghters' protective clothing provides thermal protection but only limited chemical

protection.

EVACUATION

Immediate precautionary measure

• Isolate spill or leak area for at least 100 meters (330 feet) in all directions.

Spill

• See Table 1 - Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances.

Fire

• If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a ﬁre, ISOLATE for 1600 meters (1 mile) in all directions; also,

consider initial evacuation for 1600 meters (1 mile) in all directions.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE

FIRE

DO NOT EXTINGUISH A LEAKING GAS FIRE UNLESS LEAK CAN BE STOPPED.

Small Fire

• Dry chemical, CO

, water spray or regular foam.

Large Fire

• Water spray, fog or regular foam.

• If it can be done safely, move undamaged containers away from the area around the ﬁre.

• Damaged cylinders should be handled only by specialists.

Fire involving Tanks

• Fight ﬁre from maximum distance or use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles.

• Cool containers with ﬂooding quantities of water until well after ﬁre is out.

• Do not direct water at source of leak or safety devices; icing may occur.

• Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank.

• ALWAYS stay away from tanks engulfed in ﬁre.

SPILL OR LEAK

• ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, ﬂares, sparks or ﬂames) from immediate area.

• All equipment used when handling the product must be grounded.

• Do not touch or walk through spilled material.

• Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

• Use water spray to reduce vapors or divert vapor cloud drift. Avoid allowing water runoff to contact spilled

material.

• Do not direct water at spill or source of leak.

• If possible, turn leaking containers so that gas escapes rather than liquid.

• Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or conﬁned areas.

• Isolate area until gas has dispersed.

• Consider igniting spill or leak to eliminate toxic gas concerns.

FIRST AID

• Call 911 or emergency medical service.

• Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect

themselves.

• Move victim to fresh air if it can be done safely.

• Give artiﬁcial respiration if victim is not breathing.

• Do not perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation if victim ingested or inhaled the substance; wash

face and mouth before giving artiﬁcial respiration. Use a pocket mask equipped with a one-way

valve or other proper respiratory medical device.

• Administer oxygen if breathing is difﬁcult.

• Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes.

• In case of contact with substance, immediately ﬂush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20

minutes.

• In case of contact with liqueﬁed gas, thaw frosted parts with lukewarm water.

• In case of burns, immediately cool affected skin for as long as possible with cold water. Do not remove

clothing if adhering to skin.

• Keep victim calm and warm.

• Keep victim under observation.

• Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed.

PUBLIC SAFETY

• This section is divided into three subsections:

› General Information: describes initial precautionary measures to be taken

by those first on the scene.

› PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: provides general guidance on personal

protective equipment requirements including respiratory protection. The

protective clothing information is general and correct selection is situation

dependent, after considering the physical and chemical properties of the

material, weather conditions, spill versus fire, topography, etc.

› EVACUATION: suggests protective distances for immediate precautionary

measures defined for small and large spills, including suggested guidance

for conditions where fire is present or likely (potential fragmentation hazard).

− The term “isolate” indicates a zone of no entry that applies to the public

and first responders who are not equipped, trained, and prepared to

mitigate the incident.

− The term “evacuate” indicates people should be removed from inside

this zone, if it can be done safely. If removal is too risky, sheltering-in-

place can also be considered in this zone. Evacuation aims to protect

as many people as possible, and applies mainly to the public.

• Materials highlighted in green in the yellow-bordered and blue-bordered pages

direct the reader to consult Table 1, detailing specific response distances for

toxic inhalation hazard materials, water-reactive materials and chemical

warfare agents (green-bordered pages).

If a Canadian flag appears in this section, and the incident is located

in Canada, an Emergency Response Assistance Plan (ERAP) may

POTENTIAL HAZARDS

HEALTH

• Radiation presents minimal risk to transport workers, emergency response personnel and the public

during transportation accidents. Packaging durability increases as potential hazard of radioactive content

increases.

• Very low levels of contained radioactive materials and low radiation levels outside packages result in low

risks to people. Damaged packages may release measurable amounts of radioactive material, but the

resulting risks are expected to be low.

• Some radioactive materials cannot be detected by commonly available instruments.

• Packages do not have RADIOACTIVE I, II, or III labels. Some may have EMPTY labels or may have the

word “Radioactive” in the package marking.

FIRE OR EXPLOSION

• Some of these materials may burn, but most do not ignite readily.

• Many have cardboard outer packaging; content (physically large or small) can be of many different

physical forms.

• Radioactivity does not change flammability or other properties of materials.

PUBLIC SAFETY

• CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper

not available or no answer, refer to appropriate telephone number listed on the inside back cover.

• Priorities for rescue, life-saving, first aid, fire control and other hazards are higher than the

priority for measuring radiation levels.

• Radiation Authority must be notified of accident conditions. Radiation Authority is usually responsible for

decisions about radiological consequences and closure of emergencies.

• Stay upwind, uphill and/or upstream.

• Keep unauthorized personnel away.

• Detain or isolate uninjured persons or equipment suspected to be contaminated; delay decontamination

and cleanup until instructions are received from Radiation Authority.

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING

• Positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and structural firefighters’ protective

clothing will provide adequate protection.

EVACUATION

Immediate precautionary measure

• Isolate spill or leak area for at least 25 meters (75 feet) in all directions.

POTENTIAL HAZARDS

HEALTH

• Radiation presents minimal risk to transport workers, emergency response personnel and the public during

transportation accidents. Packaging durability increases as potential hazard of radioactive content increases.

• Undamaged packages are safe. Contents of damaged packages may cause higher external radiation

exposure, or both external and internal radiation exposure if contents are released.

• Low radiation hazard when material is inside container. If material is released from package or bulk

container, hazard will vary from low to moderate. Level of hazard will depend on the type and amount of

radioactivity, the kind of material it is in, and/or the surfaces it is on.

• Some material may be released from packages during accidents of moderate severity but risks to people

are not great.

• Released radioactive materials or contaminated objects usually will be visible if packaging fails.

• Some exclusive use shipments of bulk and packaged materials will not have “RADIOACTIVE” labels.

Placards, markings and shipping papers provide identification.

• Some packages may have a “RADIOACTIVE” label and a second hazard label. The second hazard is

usually greater than the radiation hazard; so follow this GUIDE as well as the response GUIDE for the

second hazard class label.

• Some radioactive materials cannot be detected by commonly available instruments.

• Runoff from control of cargo fire may cause low-level pollution.

POTENTIAL HAZARDS

HEALTH

• Radiation presents minimal risk to transport workers, emergency response personnel and the public during

transportation accidents. Packaging durability increases as potential hazard of radioactive content increases.

• Undamaged packages are safe. Contents of damaged packages may cause higher external radiation

exposure, or both external and internal radiation exposure if contents are released.

• Type A packages (cartons, boxes, drums, articles, etc.) identified as “Type A” by marking on packages or

by shipping papers contain non-life-endangering amounts. Partial releases might be expected if “Type A”

packages are damaged in moderately severe accidents.

• Type B packages, and the rarely occurring Type C packages (large and small, usually metal), contain

the most hazardous amounts. They can be identified by package markings or by shipping papers.

Life-threatening conditions may exist only if contents are released or package shielding fails. Because

of design, evaluation and testing of packages, these conditions would be expected only for accidents of

utmost severity.

• The rarely occurring "Special Arrangement" shipments may be of Type A, Type B or Type C packages.

Package type will be marked on packages, and shipment details will be on shipping papers.

• Radioactive White-I labels indicate radiation levels outside single, isolated, undamaged packages are

very low (less than 0.005 mSv/h (0.5 mrem/h)).

• Radioactive Yellow-II and Yellow-III labeled packages have higher radiation levels. The transport index

(TI) on the label identifies the maximum radiation level in mrem/h one meter from a single, isolated,

undamaged package.

• Some radioactive materials cannot be detected by commonly available instruments.

• Water from cargo fire control may cause pollution.

FIRE OR EXPLOSION

• Some of these materials may burn, but most do not ignite readily.

• Radioactivity does not change flammability or other properties of materials.

• Type B packages are designed and evaluated to withstand total engulfment in flames at temperatures of

800°C (1475°F) for a period of 30 minutes.

PUBLIC SAFETY

• CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper

• Undamaged packages are safe. Contents of damaged packages may cause higher external radiation exposure,

or both external and internal radiation exposure if contents are released.

• Type AF or IF packages, identified by package markings, do not contain life-threatening amounts of material.

External radiation levels are low and packages are designed, evaluated and tested to control releases and to

prevent a fission chain reaction under severe transport conditions.

• Type B(U)F, B(M)F and CF packages (identified by markings on packages or shipping papers) contain potentially

life-endangering amounts. Because of design, evaluation and testing of packages, fission chain reactions are

prevented and releases are not expected to be life-endangering for all accidents except those of utmost severity.

• The rarely occurring "Special Arrangement" shipments may be of Type AF, BF or CF packages. Package type will

be marked on packages, and shipment details will be on shipping papers.

• The transport index (TI) shown on labels or a shipping paper might not indicate the radiation level at one meter

from a single, isolated, undamaged package; instead, it might relate to controls needed during transport because

of the fissile properties of the materials. Alternatively, the fissile nature of the contents may be indicated by a

criticality safety index (CSI) on a special FISSILE label or on the shipping paper.

EMERGENCY RESPONSE

FIRE

• DO NOT USE WATER, FOAM OR CO

• Dousing metallic fires with water will generate hydrogen gas, an extremely dangerous explosion hazard,

particularly if fire is in a confined environment (i.e., building, cargo hold, etc.).

• Use DRY sand, graphite powder, dry sodium chloride-based extinguishers, or class D extinguishers.

• Confining and smothering metal fires is preferable rather than applying water.

• If it can be done safely, move undamaged containers away from the area around the fire.

Fire Involving Tanks or Car/Trailer Loads

• If impossible to extinguish, protect surroundings and allow fire to burn itself out.

SPILL OR LEAK

• ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area.

• Do not touch or walk through spilled material.

• Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

• Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.

FIRST AID

• Call 911 or emergency medical service.

• Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved and take precautions to protect

themselves.

• Move victim to fresh air if it can be done safely.

• Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing.

• Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult.

• Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes.

• In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20

minutes.

INTRODUCTION TO GREEN TABLES

TABLE 1 - INITIAL ISOLATION AND PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCES

This table suggests distances useful to protect people from vapors/gases resulting from

spills involving:

• materials that are considered toxic by inhalation (TIH) (PIH in the US)

• materials that produce toxic gases upon contact with water

• chemical warfare agents

This table provides first responders with initial guidance until technically qualified emergency

response personnel are available. For each material, first responders will find distances for

the following zones:

• The Initial Isolation Zone defines an area surrounding the incident in which

people may be exposed to dangerous (upwind) and life-threatening (downwind)

concentrations of material.

• The Protective Action Zone defines an area downwind from the incident in which

people may become incapacitated and unable to take protective action and/or incur

serious or irreversible health effects. Table 1 provides specific guidance for small and

large spills occurring day or night.

Adjusting distances for a specific incident involves many interdependent variables. These

adjustments should only be made by technically qualified personnel. For this reason, no

precise guidance can be provided in this document to aid in adjusting the table distances;

however, general guidance follows.

Factors that May Change the Protective Action Distances

Fire

In the orange-bordered pages, under EVACUATION – Fire, the evacuation distance required

to protect against fragmentation hazard of a large container is clearly indicated. If involved in

a fire, the toxic hazard may be less dangerous than the fire or explosion hazard.

In these cases, the fire hazard distance should be used as an isolation distance and Table

1 should be used to protect downwind for residual material release.

Worst-case scenario: terrorism, sabotage or catastrophic accident

Initial isolation and protective action distances are derived from historical data on

transportation incidents and the use of statistical models. For worst-case scenarios involving

the instantaneous release of the entire contents of a package (e.g., as a result of terrorism,

sabotage or catastrophic accident), the distances may increase substantially.

For such events, doubling the initial isolation and protective action distances is appropriate

in absence of other information.

When more than one large package is leaking

If more than one rail car, tank truck, tank or large cylinder, containing TIH materials is leaking,

large spill distances may need to be increased.

Page 287

Other factors that can increase the protective action distance:

• If a material has a protective action distance of 11.0+ km (7.0+ miles), the actual

distance can be larger in certain atmospheric conditions.

• If the material’s vapor plume is channeled in a valley or between many tall

buildings, protective action distances may be larger than shown due to less mixing

of the plume with the atmosphere.

• If there is a daytime spill in a region with known strong temperature inversions

or snow cover, or it occurs near sunset, this may require an increase of the

protective action distance because airborne contaminants mix and disperse more

slowly and may travel much farther downwind.

› In such cases, the nighttime protective action distances may be more

appropriate.

• If the temperature of the liquid spill or the outdoor temperature exceeds 30°C

(86°F), the protective action distance may be larger.

Water-reactive materials

Materials that react with water to produce large amounts of toxic gases are included in Table

1. Some of these materials have 2 entries in Table 1. They are identified by (when spilled

on land) since they are TIH products and (when spilled in water) because they produce

additional toxic gases when spilled in water.

Choose the larger protective action distance if:

• it is not clear whether the spill is on land or in water

• the spill occurs both on land and in water

TABLE 2 - WATER-REACTIVE MATERIALS WHICH PRODUCE TOXIC GASES

This table lists materials that produce large amounts of Toxic Inhalation Hazard gases (TIH)

when spilled in water as well as the TIH gases that are produced.

NOTE: The produced TIH gases indicated in Table 2 are for information purposes only. In Table

1, the initial isolation and protective action distances have already taken into consideration

the produced TIH gas.

When a water-reactive TIH-producing material is spilled into a river or stream, the source of

the toxic gas may flow downstream for a great distance.

TABLE 3 - INITIAL ISOLATION AND PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCES FOR LARGE

SPILLS FOR DIFFERENT QUANTITIES OF SIX COMMON TIH (PIH IN THE US) GASES

This table lists materials that may be more commonly encountered. These materials are:

• UN1005 - Ammonia, anhydrous

• UN1017 - Chlorine

• UN1040 - Ethylene oxide and UN1040 - Ethylene oxide with nitrogen

Page 288

• UN1050 - Hydrogen chloride, anhydrous and UN2186 - Hydrogen chloride,

refrigerated liquid

• UN1052 - Hydrogen fluoride, anhydrous

• UN1079 - Sulfur dioxide/Sulphur dioxide

This table provides initial isolation and protective action distances for large spills (more than

208 liters or 55 US gallons):

• involving different container types (therefore different volume capacities)

• for daytime and nighttime situations

• for different wind speeds (low, moderate and high)

Page 289

PROTECTIVE ACTIONS

Protective actions are the steps taken to preserve the health and safety of emergency

responders and the public during an incident involving releases of hazardous materials/

dangerous goods.

Table 1 - Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances (green-bordered pages) predicts

the size of the area that could be affected by a cloud of toxic gas. People in this area should

be evacuated and/or sheltered-in-place inside buildings.

Isolate hazard area and deny entry means to keep everybody away from the area if they are

not directly involved in emergency response operations. Unprotected emergency responders

should not be allowed to enter the isolation zone.

This "isolation" task is done to establish control over the area of operations. This is the first

step for any protective actions that may follow.

Evacuate means to move all people from a threatened area to a safer place. To perform an

evacuation, there must be enough time for people to be warned, get ready, and leave an

area. If there is enough time, evacuation is the best protective action.

Begin evacuating people nearby and those who are outdoors in direct view of the scene.

When additional help arrives, expand the area to be evacuated downwind and crosswind to

at least the extent recommended in this guidebook.

Even after people move to the distances recommended, they may not be completely safe

from harm. They should not be permitted to gather at such distances. Send evacuees to a

definite place, by a specific route, far enough away so they will not have to be moved again

if the wind shifts.

Shelter-in-place means people should seek shelter inside a building and remain inside

until the danger passes. It is vital for first responders to maintain communications with

sheltered-in-place people so that they are advised about changing conditions.

Sheltering-in-place is used either when:

• evacuating the public would cause greater risk than staying where they are

• an evacuation cannot be performed

Direct the people inside to:

• close all doors and windows

• shut off all ventilating, heating and cooling systems

• stay far from windows to avoid shattered glass and projectile metal fragments in

the event of a fire and/or explosion

• tune in to local radio or TV stations, and stay inside until told it is safe to leave by

first responders

Shelter-in-place may not be the best option if:

• the vapors are flammable

Page 290

• it will take a long time for the gas to clear the area

• buildings cannot be closed tightly

Vehicles can offer some protection for a short period if the windows are closed and the

ventilation systems are shut off. Vehicles are not as effective as buildings for in-place protection.

NOTE: Every hazardous materials/dangerous goods incident is different. Each will have special

problems and concerns. Actions to protect the public must be carefully selected. These pages

can help with initial decisions on how to protect the public. Officials must continue to gather

information and monitor the situation until the threat is removed.

Page 291

PROTECTIVE ACTION DECISION FACTORS TO CONSIDER

The choice of protective actions for a given situation depends on a number of factors. For

some cases, evacuation may be the best option; in others, sheltering-in-place may be the

best course. Sometimes, these two actions may be used in combination. In any emergency,

officials need to quickly give the public instructions. The public will need continuing information

and instructions while being evacuated or sheltered-in-place.

Proper evaluation of the factors listed below will determine the effectiveness of evacuation or

in-place protection (shelter-in-place). The importance of these factors can vary with emergency

conditions. In specific emergencies, other factors may need to be identified and considered as

well. This list indicates what kind of information may be needed to make the initial decision.

The hazardous materials/dangerous goods:

• degree of health hazard

• chemical and physical properties

• amount involved

• containment/control of release

• rate of vapor movement

The population threatened:

• location

• number of people

• time available to evacuate or shelter-in-place

• ability to control evacuation or shelter-in-place

• building types and availability

• special institutions or populations, e.g., nursing homes, hospitals, prisons

The weather conditions:

• effect on vapor and cloud movement

• potential for change

• effect on evacuation or shelter-in-place

Page 292

BACKGROUND ON TABLE 1 – INITIAL ISOLATION

AND PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCES

Initial isolation and protective action distances in this guidebook were determined for small

and large spills occurring during day or night. The overall analysis, statistical in nature, was

conducted using:

• state-of-the-art emission rate and dispersion models

• statistical release data from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Hazardous

Materials Information System (HMIS) database

• meteorological observations from more than 120 locations in the United States,

Canada, and Mexico

• the most current toxicological exposure guidelines

For each chemical, thousands of hypothetical releases were modeled to account for the statistical

variance in both release amount and atmospheric conditions. Based on this statistical sample,

they selected the 90th percentile protective action distance for each chemical and category to

appear in the table. A brief description of the analysis is provided below.

A detailed report outlining the methodology and data used to generate the initial isolation

and protective action distances may be obtained from the U.S. DOT, Pipeline and Hazardous

Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA).

DESCRIPTION OF THE ANALYSIS

Release amounts and emission rates into the atmosphere were statistically modeled

based on:

• data from the U.S. DOT HMIS database

• container types and sizes authorized for transport as specified in 49 CFR §172.101

and Part 173

• physical properties of the individual materials

• atmospheric data from a historical database

For liquefied gases, which can flash to form both a vapor/aerosol mixture and an evaporating

pool, the emission model calculated one or both of:

• the release of vapor due to evaporation of pools on the ground

• direct release of vapors from the container

The emission model also calculated the emission of toxic vapor by-products generated from

spilling water-reactive materials in water.

Small spills involve 208 liters (55 US gallons) or less.

Large spills involve greater quantities.

Page 293

The exceptions are the entries at the beginning of Table 1 marked (when used as a weapon).

The volumes used for these calculations varies, but in most cases:

• Small spills include releases up to 2 kg (4.4 lbs.).

• Large spills include releases up to 25 kg (55 lbs.).

Downwind dispersion of the vapor was estimated for each case modeled. Using a database

containing hourly meteorological data from 120 American, Canadian, and Mexican cities,

the atmospheric parameters affecting the dispersion and the emission rate were selected.

The dispersion calculation accounted for both the:

• time-dependent emission rate from the source

• density of the vapor plume (i.e., heavy gas effects)

Since atmospheric mixing is less effective at dispersing vapor plumes during nighttime, day

and night were separated in the analysis.

In the table:

• day refers to time periods after sunrise and before sunset

• night includes all hours between sunset and sunrise

Toxicological short-term exposure guidelines for the materials were applied to determine

the downwind distance to which people may:

• become incapacitated and unable to take protective action

• incur serious health effects after a single, or rare, exposure

When available, toxicological exposure guidelines were chosen from AEGL-2 or ERPG-2

emergency response guidelines. AEGL-2 values were the first choice.

For materials without AEGL-2 or ERPG-2 values, emergency response guidelines were

estimated based on lethal concentration limits derived from animal-based-studies. This

approach was recommended by an independent panel of toxicological experts from industry

and academia.

HOW TO USE TABLE 1 – INITIAL ISOLATION AND

PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCES

(1) The responder should already have:

• identified the material by its ID number and name (if you cannot find an ID number,

use the Name of Material index in the blue-bordered pages to find that number);

• confirmed that the material is highlighted in green in the yellow or blue-bordered

pages. If not, Table 1 doesn’t apply;

• found the three-digit guide for the material, in order to consult emergency actions

it recommends along with this table; and

• noted the wind direction

(2) Look in Table 1 (green-bordered pages) for the ID number and name of the material

involved. Some ID numbers have more than one shipping name listed. Look for the

specific name of the material. If you do not know the shipping name and Table 1 lists

more than one name for the same ID number, use the entry with the largest distances.

(3) Determine if the incident involves a SMALL or LARGE spill and if it is DAY or NIGHT. A

SMALL SPILL consists of a release of 208 liters (55 US gallons) or less. This generally

corresponds to a spill from a single small package (for example, a drum), a small cylinder,

or a small leak from a large package. A LARGE SPILL consists of a release of more than

208 liters (55 US gallons). This usually involves a spill from a large package, or multiple

spills from many small packages. DAY is any time after sunrise and before sunset. NIGHT

is any time between sunset and sunrise.

(4) Look up the INITIAL ISOLATION DISTANCE.

This distance defines the radius of a zone (initial

isolation zone) surrounding the spill in ALL

DIRECTIONS. In this zone, protective clothing

and respiratory protection is required. Evacuate

the general public in a direction perpendicular

to wind direction (crosswind) and away from

the spill.

(5) Look up the PROTECTIVE ACTION DISTANCE.

For a given material, spill size, and whether day or night, Table 1 gives the downwind

distance—in kilometers and miles—from the spill or leak source, for which you should

consider protective actions. For practical purposes, the protective action zone (i.e., the

area in which people are at risk of harmful exposure) is a square. Its length and width

are the same as the downwind distance shown in Table 1. Protective actions are the

public. People in this area should be evacuated and/or sheltered-in-place. Consult

pages 289-291.

(6) Initiate protective actions beginning with those closest to the spill site and working away

in a downwind direction. When a water-reactive TIH (PIH in the US) producing material

is spilled into a river or stream, the source of the toxic gas may move with the current

or stretch from the spill point downstream for a large distance.

In the figure below, the spill is located at the center of the small black circle. The larger

circle represents the initial isolation zone around the spill. The square (the protective

action zone) is the area in which you should take protective actions.

Note 1: For factors that may change the protective action distances, see "Introduction

to Green Tables" (page 286).

Note 2: When a product in Table 1 has the mention (when spilled in water), you can

refer to Table 2 for the list of gases produced when these materials are spilled

in water. The TIH gases indicated in Table 2 are for information purposes only.

For more information on the material, safety precautions and mitigation procedures, call

the emergency response telephone number listed on the shipping paper or the appropriate

response agency as soon as possible.

HOW TO USE TABLE 2 – WATER-REACTIVE MATERIALS

THAT PRODUCE TOXIC GASES

Table 2 lists materials that produce large amounts of Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) (PIH in

the US) gases when spilled in water, and identifies the TIH gases produced.

The materials are listed by order of ID number.

These Water-Reactive materials are easily identified in Table 1 as their name is immediately

followed by (when spilled in water).

Note 1: The TIH gases indicated in Table 2 are for information purposes only. In Table

1, the initial isolation and protective action distances have already taken into

consideration the TIH gases produced.

For example: Table 2 indicates that UN1689 sodium cyanide, when spilled

in water, will generate hydrogen cyanide gas (HCN). In Table 1, you must

refer to the distances for sodium cyanide and not the distances for hydrogen

cyanide gas.

Note 2: Some Water-Reactive materials are also TIH materials themselves (e.g., UN1746

(Bromine trifluoride), UN1836 (Thionyl chloride)). In these instances, two entries

are provided in Table 1 for land-based and water-based spills. If a water-reactive

material only has one entry in Table 1 for (when spilled in water), and the

product is NOT spilled in water, Tables 1 and 2 do NOT apply. Refer only to the

appropriate orange-bordered guide.

Note 3: Materials classified as a Division 4.3 are substances that, on contact with water,

are liable to become spontaneously FLAMMABLE or give off FLAMMABLE or

sometimes TOXIC gases in dangerous quantities. For the purpose of this table,

water-reactive materials are materials that generate substantial quantities of

TOXIC gases rapidly after a spill into water; therefore, a material classified as a

Division 4.3 will not always be included in Table 2.

Use this list only when material is spilled in water.

ERG2020 USER’S GUIDE

For the purposes of this guidebook, the terms hazardous materials/dangerous goods are

synonymous.

The 2020 Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG2020) was developed jointly by

Transport Canada (TC), the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), and the Secretariat

of Communications and Transport of Mexico (SCT), with help from CIQUIME (Centro de

Información Química para Emergencias) of Argentina.

This guidebook is for firefighters, police and other emergency services personnel who may

be first to arrive at the scene of a transportation incident involving dangerous goods.

It is primarily a guide to help first responders to quickly:

• identify the specific or generic hazards of material(s) involved in a transportation

incident

• protect themselves and the general public during the initial response phase

of the incident

For the purposes of this guidebook, “initial response phase” is the period after first responders

arrive at the scene of an incident. During this phase, responders:

• confirm the presence and/or identification of dangerous goods

This guide is designed for use at a dangerous goods incident on a highway or railroad. It may

have limited value at fixed-facility locations, or onboard aircrafts or vessels.

This guide does not:

• provide information on the physical or chemical properties of dangerous goods

• replace emergency response training, knowledge, or sound judgment

• address all possible circumstances that may be associated with a dangerous goods

incident

ERG2020 incorporates dangerous goods lists from the most recent United Nations

Recommendations, and from other international and national regulations.

Explosives are not listed individually (by either proper shipping name or ID number) but,

under the general heading “Explosives”, they do appear:

• on the first page of the ID Number index (yellow-bordered pages)

• alphabetically in the Name of Material index (blue-bordered pages)

Chemical warfare agents do not have an assigned ID number because they are not

commercially transported. In an emergency situation, the assigned guide (orange-bordered

pages) will provide guidance for the initial response.

Page 355

The letter (P) following the guide number in the yellow and blue bordered pages

identifies materials that present a polymerization hazard under certain conditions.

For example: UN1092 - Acrolein, stabilized GUIDE 131P.

First responders at the scene of a dangerous goods incident should not solely rely on this

guidebook. Always seek specific information about any material in question as soon as

possible. To do so:

• Contact the appropriate emergency response agency listed on the inside back cover.

• Call the emergency response telephone number on the shipping paper.

• Consult information on or accompanying the shipping paper.

BEFORE AN EMERGENCY – BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THIS GUIDEBOOK! In the

U.S., according to the requirements of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety

and Health Administration (OSHA, 29 CFR 1910.120) and regulations issued by the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA, 40 CFR Part 311), first responders must be trained

in how to use this guidebook.

GUIDEBOOK CONTENTS

1- Yellow-bordered pages: Index list of dangerous goods in order of ID number. The list

displays the 4-digit ID followed by its assigned emergency response guide and material name.

For example: ID No. GUIDE No. Name of Material

1090 127 Acetone

2- Blue-bordered pages: Index list of dangerous goods in alphabetical order of material

name. The list displays the name followed by its assigned emergency response guide and

4-digit ID number.

For example: Name of Material GUIDE No. ID No.

Sulfuric acid 137 1830

3- Orange-bordered pages: All safety recommendations are provided here. It is made up

of 62 individual guides in a 2-page format. Each guide recommends safety and emergency

response procedures to protect yourself and the public. The left-hand page gives safety-

related information and evacuation distances. The right-hand page gives emergency response

guidance for fires, spills or leaks, and first aid. Each guide applies to a group of materials

with similar chemical and toxicological characteristics. The guide title identifies the general

hazards of the dangerous goods.

For example: GUIDE 124 - Gases - Toxic and/or Corrosive - Oxidizing.

Page 356

Each guide is divided into 3 main sections:

POTENTIAL HAZARDS:

• Displays the hazards in terms of FIRE OR EXPLOSION and HEALTH effects upon

exposure.

• Primary potential hazard is listed first.

• Consult this section first to help you make decisions about how to protect the

emergency response team and surrounding population.

PUBLIC SAFETY:

• Provides general information on initial precautionary measures to be taken by those

first on scene.

• Provides general guidance on PROTECTIVE CLOTHING requirements and respiratory

protection.

• Lists suggested EVACUATION distances for immediate precautionary measures,

spills, and for fires (fragmentation hazard).

• When the material is highlighted in green in the yellow and blue bordered pages, it

directs the reader to consult Table 1, which lists Toxic Inhalation Hazard (TIH) (PIH

in the U.S.) materials, water-reactive materials and chemical warfare agents (green-

bordered pages).

EMERGENCY RESPONSE:

• Outlines special precautions for incidents that involve FIRE, SPILL OR LEAK or

chemical exposure.

• Lists several recommendations under each part to further assist your decision-making

process.

• Provides general FIRST AID guidance to use before seeking medical care.

4- Green-bordered pages: This section has 3 tables.

Table 1 - Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances

Lists, by order of ID number:

• TIH (PIH in the U.S.) materials

• water-reactive materials that produce toxic gases upon contact with water

• certain chemical warfare agents

These materials are highlighted in green in the yellow and blue bordered pages so you can

easily identify them.

Page 357

Table 1 provides two types of recommended safety distances: “initial isolation distances”

and “protective action distances” for:

• small spills: 208 liters (55 US gallons) or less

• large spills: more than 208 liters (55 US gallons)

• Exception: For entries marked (when used as a weapon), volumes vary, but in most

cases, small spills include releases up to 2 kg (4.4 lbs.), and large spills include

releases up to 25 kg (55 lbs.).

Within the “initial isolation distance”, protective clothing and respiratory protection is

required. You should consider evacuating all people in all directions from the spill or leak

source. This distance defines the radius of the “initial isolation zone” surrounding the spill in

which people may be exposed to:

• dangerous concentrations upwind of the source

• life-threatening concentrations downwind of the source

The “protective action distances” are downwind distances from the spill or leak source,

within which responders could carry out protective actions to:

• preserve the health and safety of emergency responders and the public

• evacuate and/or shelter-in-place people in this area (For more information, consult

pp. 289 to 291)

The “protective action distance” is divided into daytime and nighttime incidents because

varying atmospheric conditions affect a hazardous area’s size. In fact, the quantity or

concentration of the material’s vapor poses problems, not its mere presence. During the night,

the air is generally calmer. This causes the vapor to disperse less and therefore creates a

greater toxic zone. In daytime, the atmosphere is more active, so the vapor disperses more.

As a result, there is a lower concentration of vapor in the surrounding air and the area that

reaches toxic levels is smaller. Daytime is after sunrise and before sunset. Nighttime is

between sunset and sunrise.

For example, in the case of a small spill of UN1955 - compressed gas, toxic, n.o.s., the

“initial isolation distance” is 100 meters (300 feet); therefore its “initial isolation zone” is

200 meters (600 feet) in diameter. Its “protective action distance” is 0.5 kilometers (0.3

miles) for daytime and 2.5 kilometers (1.6 miles) for nighttime.

Note 1: Some water-reactive materials have 2 entries in Table 1. They are identified by (when

spilled on land) since they are TIH products and (when spilled in water) because they

produce additional toxic gases when spilled in water.

For example: UN1746 - Bromine trifluoride and UN1836 - Thionyl chloride.

Note 2: If a water-reactive material only has one entry in Table 1 for (when spilled in water)

and the product is NOT spilled in water, Table 1 and Table 2 do not apply. You will find safe

distances in the appropriate orange-bordered guide.

For example: UN1183 - Ethyldichlorosilane and UN1898 – Acetyl iodide.

Page 358

Table 2 - Water-Reactive Materials Which Produce Toxic Gases

Lists:

• by order of ID number, materials that produce large amounts of Toxic Inhalation Hazard

(TIH) gases when spilled in water; and

• TIH gases produced by these materials.

You can easily identify water-reactive materials in Table 1, as their names are immediately

followed by (when spilled in water).

NOTE: The TIH gases indicated in Table 2 are for information purposes only. These TIH gases

have already been taken into consideration in the distances of Table 1.

For example, Table 2 indicates that UN1689 sodium cyanide, when spilled in water, will

generate hydrogen cyanide gas (HCN). In Table 1, you must refer to the distances for sodium

cyanide, solid and not the distances for hydrogen cyanide gas.

Table 3 - Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances for Large Spills for Different

Quantities of Six Common TIH Gases

Lists the following 6 most common TIH materials:

• UN1005 - Ammonia, anhydrous

• UN1017 - Chlorine

• UN1040 - Ethylene oxide and UN1040 - Ethylene oxide with nitrogen

• UN1050 - Hydrogen chloride, anhydrous and UN2186 - Hydrogen chloride, refrigerated

liquid

• UN1052 - Hydrogen fluoride, anhydrous

• UN1079 - Sulfur dioxide/Sulphur dioxide

Table 3 shows:

• initial isolation and protective action distances for large spills (more than 208 liters

or 55 US gallons)

• different container types (therefore different volume capacities) for daytime and

nighttime, and for three different wind speeds (low, moderate and high)

Page 359

HOW TO CHOOSE THE APPROPRIATE ISOLATION AND PROTECTIVE ACTION

DISTANCES

ERG2020 lists isolation or evacuation distances in 2 places:

• the individual guides (orange-bordered pages)

• Table 1 – Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances (green-bordered pages)

If you are dealing with a non-TIH material (not highlighted in green in the yellow-bordered

or blue-bordered pages),

• Go to the assigned guide for the material (orange-bordered pages).

• Under EVACUATION, you will find:

− initial isolation distance as an immediate precautionary measure

− specific distances for spill or fire situations (fragmentation hazard)

− Please note that certain guides may also refer to Table 1. This is just a reminder

for green highlighted materials only.

If you are dealing with a TIH, water-reactive or chemical warfare material (green highlighted

entries in the yellow or blue bordered pages):

If there is no fire:

• Go directly to Table 1 – Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances (green-

bordered pages).

• Also, consult the assigned guide for the material (orange-bordered pages).

If a fire is involved:

• Go directly to the assigned guide (orange-bordered pages) and apply the distances

found under EVACUATION - Fire.

• Also, consult Table 1 distances for residual material release.

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING

STREET CLOTHING AND WORK UNIFORMS

These garments, such as uniforms worn by police and emergency medical services personnel,

provide almost no protection from the harmful effects of hazardous materials/dangerous goods.

STRUCTURAL FIREFIGHTERS’ PROTECTIVE CLOTHING (SFPC)

This category of clothing, often called turnout or bunker gear, is the protective clothing

firefighters normally wear during structural firefighting operations. It includes a helmet, coat,

pants, boots, gloves and a hood to cover parts of the head that are not protected by the helmet

and facepiece. It can be used with full-facepiece positive pressure self-contained breathing

apparatus (SCBA). It should, at minimum, meet the OSHA Fire Brigades Standard (29 CFR

1910.156) or NFPA 1851.

Structural firefighters’ protective clothing provides limited protection from heat and cold. It may

not provide adequate protection from harmful vapors or liquids encountered during hazardous

materials/dangerous goods incidents.

Each guide includes a statement about the use of SFPC in incidents involving the materials

referenced by that guide. Some guides state that SFPC provides limited protection. In those

cases, the responder wearing SFPC and SCBA may be able to perform a quick “in-and-out”

operation. However, this type of operation can place the responder at risk of exposure, injury

or death. The incident commander makes the decision to do this only if there is an overriding

benefit (for example, to perform an immediate rescue, turn off a valve to control a leak, etc.).

Please note that the coverall-type protective clothing customarily worn to fight fires in forests or

wildlands is not SFPC and is not recommended nor referred to elsewhere in this guidebook.

POSITIVE PRESSURE SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS (SCBA)

This apparatus provides a constant, positive pressure flow of air within the facepiece.

You should always use an SCBA certified by NIOSH and the Department of Labor/Mine

Safety and Health Administration, in accordance with:

• 42 CFR Part 84

• requirements for respiratory protection specified in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134

(Respiratory Protection) and/or 29 CFR 1910.156 (f) (Fire Brigades Standard)

• NFPA 1852

Chemical-cartridge respirators or other filtering masks are not acceptable substitutes for

positive pressure SCBA. Demand-type SCBA does not meet the OSHA 29 CFR 1910.156

(f)(1)(i) of the Fire Brigades Standard.

RESPIRATORS

If you suspect a chemical warfare agent is involved in an incident, use NIOSH-certified

respirators with CBRN protection.

Page 361

N95 respirators are the most common of the seven types of particulate filtering facepiece

respirators. This product filters at least 95% of airborne particles (0.3 microns), but is not

resistant to oil. N95 filtering facepiece respirators do not protect against gases and vapors.

Powered air-purifying respirators (PAPR) force ambient air through the air-purifying cartridge

or filter into the facepiece. A PAPR does not supply oxygen or air from a separate source

(e.g., cylinders).

CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT

For you to safely use this type of protective clothing and equipment, you need specific skills

developed through training and experience. This type of special clothing may protect against

one chemical but be readily permeated by chemicals for which it was not designed. Therefore,

do not use this type of protective clothing unless it is compatible with the released material.

Also, be aware that it offers little or no protection against heat and/or cold.

Examples of this type of equipment have been described as:

(1) Vapor Protective Suits (NFPA 1991), also known as Totally-Encapsulating Chemical

Protective Suits or Level A* protection (OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, Appendix A & B)

(2) Liquid-Splash Protective Suits (NFPA 1992), also known as Level B* or C* protection

(OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, Appendix A & B), or suits for chemical/biological terrorism

incidents (NFPA 1994), class 1, 2 or 3 Ensembles and Standard CAN/CGSB/

CSA-Z1610-11 – Protection of first responders from chemical, biological, radiological,

and nuclear (CBRN) events

No single protective clothing material will protect you from all hazardous materials/dangerous

goods. Do not assume any protective clothing is resistant to cold and/or heat or flame exposure,

unless certified by the manufacturer (NFPA 1991 5-3 Flammability Resistance Test and 5-6

Cold Temperature Performance Test).

*Consult the glossary for more information about protection levels under the heading

“Protective Clothing.”

Page 362

DECONTAMINATION

The ways to decontaminate people and equipment can vary. If you need help with

decontamination, contact the emergency response telephone number provided on the

shipping papers or the agencies listed on the inside back cover. These resources may be

able to put you in contact with the chemical manufacturer to determine the appropriate

procedure if not otherwise available.

Decontamination is the process of removing or neutralizing hazardous materials/dangerous

goods that have contaminated people and equipment during an incident.

Contamination happens in the area generally referred to as the Hot Zone. Everything and

everyone entering this zone should be decontaminated when leaving, including emergency

response personnel. This reduces the chances that more contamination will occur.

There are two main types of contamination:

• Direct contamination happens in the Hot Zone.

• Cross contamination happens when someone or something outside the Hot Zone

was not properly decontaminated and comes in contact with another object or person,

usually in the Warm or Cold Zone.

To decontaminate, you must:

• physically remove contaminants; and/or

• chemically neutralize contaminants*.

The NFPA 472, Chapter 3, describes the following four kinds of decontamination.

(1) Gross decontamination: Quickly removing surface contamination, which usually

happens by mechanically removing the contaminant or rinsing with water from

handheld hose lines, emergency showers, or other nearby water sources.

(2) Technical decontamination: Reducing contamination to a level as low as possible by

chemical or physical methods. A hazmat team will perform this kind of decontamination.

(3) Mass decontamination: Reducing or removing surface contaminants as fast as

possible from a large number of people in potentially life-threatening situations.

(4) Emergency decontamination: Immediately reducing contamination of people

in potentially life-threatening situations with or without formally setting up a

decontamination corridor. This process should be performed upwind and uphill

from victims. Responders should avoid contact with victims, runoff or spray from the

decontamination process.

Emergency and mass decontamination can be done with firefighting and rescue operations

equipment. Nozzles can be put on wide-angle fog patterns and sprayed towards the ground

to create a decontamination shower. Responders can also place nozzles on the discharge

ports of engines.

Contaminated clothing and equipment must be removed after use and stored in a controlled

area (Warm Zone) until cleanup procedures can begin. Sometimes protective clothing and

equipment cannot be decontaminated and must be disposed of properly.

*Chemical neutralization releases heat. DO NOT PERFORM on a victim.

Page 363

FIRE AND SPILL CONTROL

FIRE CONTROL

Water is the most common and generally most available fire extinguishing agent. Use caution

in selecting a fire extinguishing method, as there are many factors to consider. Water may be

ineffective in fighting fires that involve some materials.

Fires Involving a Spill of Flammable Liquids

These fires are usually controlled by applying a firefighting foam to the surface of the burning

material.

Fighting flammable liquid fires requires:

• foam concentrate that is chemically compatible with the burning material

• correct mixing of the foam concentrate with water and air

• careful application and maintenance of the foam blanket

There are two general types of firefighting foam: regular and alcohol-resistant. Examples of

regular foam are protein-base, fluoroprotein, and aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF).

You can control some flammable liquid fires, including many petroleum products, by applying

regular foam. Other flammable liquids, including polar solvents (flammable liquids that are

water soluble), such as alcohols and ketones, have different chemical properties. You cannot

easily control a fire that involves these materials with regular foam, and should use alcohol-

resistant foam instead.

Polar solvent fires may be difficult to control and require a higher foam application rate than

other flammable liquid fires (see NFPA Standards 11 for further information). Refer to the

appropriate guide to determine which type of foam to use. For flammable liquids which have

subsidiary corrosive or toxic hazards, it is difficult to make specific recommendations. However,

alcohol-resistant foam may be effective for many of these materials.

Contact the emergency response telephone number on the shipping paper, or the appropriate

emergency response agency, as soon as possible for guidance on the proper fire extinguishing

agent to use.

How you decide to control the fire depends on factors such as:

• incident location

• exposure hazards

• size of the fire

• environmental concerns

• availability of extinguishing agents and equipment at the scene

WATER-REACTIVE MATERIALS

Water is sometimes used to flush spills and reduce or direct vapors in spill situations. Some

of the materials covered by this guidebook can react violently or even explosively with water.

In these cases, consider letting the fire burn or leaving the spill alone (except to prevent its

spreading by diking) until you can get more technical advice.

Page 364

The applicable guides clearly warn you of these potentially dangerous reactions. Technical

advice is required for these materials since:

• Water getting inside a ruptured or leaking container may cause an explosion.

• You may need to cool adjoining containers with water to prevent them from rupturing

(exploding), or to prevent the fire spreading further.

• Water may be effective in mitigating an incident involving a water-reactive material,

but only if you can apply it at a sufficient flooding rate for a long period.

• Products from the reaction with water may be more toxic, corrosive or undesirable

than the product that caused the fire.

When you respond to an incident involving water-reactive materials, take into account:

• existing conditions, such as wind, precipitation, location and accessibility to the incident

• availability of agents to control the fire or spill

Because there are variables to consider, base your decision to use water on fires or spills

involving water-reactive materials on information from a reliable source. For example, consult

the material’s manufacturer through the emergency response telephone number or the

appropriate emergency response agency listed on the inside back cover.

VAPOR CONTROL

Limiting the amount of vapor released from a pool of flammable or corrosive liquids is an

operational concern. It requires proper protective clothing, specialized equipment, appropriate

chemical agents and skilled personnel. Before you engage in vapor control, seek advice on

tactics to be used from qualified personnel.

There are several ways to minimize the amount of vapors escaping from pools of spilled

liquids, such as special foams, adsorbing agents, absorbents, and neutralizing agents. To

be effective, you must select a method for the specific material involved, and use it in a way

that mitigates, not worsens, the incident.

Where specific materials are known, such as at a manufacturing or storage facilities, the

hazardous materials/dangerous goods response team should prearrange with the facility

operators to select and stockpile these control agents before a spill.

In the field, first responders may not have the most effective vapor control agent for the material

available. They will be more likely to have only water, and only one type of firefighting foam

on their vehicles. If the available foam is not appropriate, they will probably use water spray.

Because water is being used to form a vapor seal, care must be taken not to churn or further

spread the spill during application. Vapors that do not react with water may be directed away

from the site using the air currents surrounding the water spray. Before using water spray

or other methods to safely control vapor emission or suppress ignition, get technical advice

based on a specific chemical name.

Page 365

BLEVE AND HEAT INDUCED TEAR

BLEVE (BOILING LIQUID EXPANDING VAPOR EXPLOSION)

The following pages present important safety-related information on BLEVEs, including a

table, to consider in a situation involving Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG), UN1075.

LPGs include the following flammable gases:

• UN1011 - Butane • UN1077 - Propylene

• UN1012 - Butylene • UN1969 - Isobutane

• UN1055 - Isobutylene • UN1978 - Propane

A BLEVE occurs when a fire impinged or damaged tank car fails to contain its internal pressure

and explodes with a sudden product release. This catastrophic failure is more likely to occur

with damaged pressure tank cars, even in the absence of an active fire.

The main hazards from a LPG BLEVE are:

• Fire: If the released substance is ignited, there is an immediate fireball.

• Thermal radiation: At a distance of about 4 times the radius of a fireball, the heat

radiated from a fireball is enough to burn exposed skin in 2 seconds. Wearing protective

clothing limits the thermal radiation dose.

• Blast: A concussive force caused by the sudden release of the pressurized substance.

For a BLEVE occurring out in the open, the blast strength at a distance of 4 times the

radius of a fireball can break window glass and may cause minor damage to buildings.

• Projectiles: Tank failure can throw metal fragments over large distances. These

fragments can and have been deadly.

The danger decreases as you move away from the BLEVE centre. The furthest-reaching

hazard is projectiles.

For a video with information on critical safety issues concerning BLEVEs, please visit

http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/tdg/publications-menu-1238.html.

HEAT INDUCED TEAR (HIT)

A heat induced tear (HIT) is a rupture of a NON-PRESSURE tank car containing flammable

liquids when exposed to the intense heat of a fire. The metal will soften and the pressure in

the tank car will increase which can lead to containment failure. The tear generally occurs

at the vapor space (upper side) of the container, venting large quantities of flammable liquid

and vapors at high speed. A fireball and an intense heat wave will occur.

Compared to BLEVEs, HITs rarely result in the projection of tank car fragments. Heat induced

tearing has occurred within 20 minutes of the derailment and as long as 10+ hours following

the initial fire.

Responding to these types of incidents (BLEVE and HIT) requires specialized training,

equipment and a tactical approach.

Page 366

BLEVE – SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Use with caution. The following table gives a summary of tank properties, critical times,

critical distances and cooling water flow rates for various tank sizes. This table is provided

to give responders some guidance but it should be used with caution.

Tank dimensions are approximate and can vary depending on the tank design and

application.

Minimum time to failure is based on severe torch fire impingement on the vapor space

of a tank in good condition, and is approximate. Tanks may fail earlier if they are damaged

or corroded. Tanks may fail minutes or hours later than these minimum times depending

on the conditions. It has been assumed here that the tanks are not equipped with thermal

barriers or water spray cooling.

Minimum time to empty is based on an engulfing fire with a properly sized pressure relief

valve. If the tank is only partially engulfed, then time to empty will increase (i.e., if tank is 50%

engulfed, then the tanks will take twice as long to empty). Once again, it has been assumed

that the tank is not equipped with a thermal barrier or water spray.

Tanks equipped with thermal barriers or water spray cooling significantly increase the

times to failure and the times to empty. A thermal barrier can reduce the heat input to a

tank by a factor of ten or more. This means it could take ten times as long to empty the tank

through the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV).

Fireball radius and emergency response distance is based on mathematical equations

and is approximate. They assume spherical fireballs and this is not always the case.

Two safety distances for public evacuation. The minimum distance is based on tanks

that are launched with a small elevation angle (i.e., a few degrees above horizontal). This is

most common for horizontal cylinders. The preferred evacuation distance has more margin

of safety since it assumes the tanks are launched at a 45 degree angle to the horizontal.

This might be more appropriate if a vertical cylinder is involved.

It is understood that these distances are very large and may not be practical in a highly

populated area. However, it should be understood that the risks increase rapidly the closer

you are to a BLEVE. Keep in mind that the furthest reaching projectiles tend to come off in

the zones 45 degrees on each side of the tank ends.

Water flow rate is based on 5 ( √capacity (USgal) ) = USgal/min needed to cool tank

metal.

Warning: the data given are approximate and should only be used with extreme caution.

For example, where times are given for tank failure or tank emptying through the pressure

relief valve – these times are typical but they can vary from situation to situation. Therefore,

never risk life based on these times.

WARNING:

Page 368

CRIMINAL OR TERRORIST USE OF CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND

RADIOLOGICAL AGENTS

If you suspect an intentional release of a chemical, biological or radiological agent (CBRN),

you should immediately contact your local emergency response authorities (911). Additionally,

for CBRN incidents occurring:

• within the United States, call the National Response Center at 1-800-424-8802

• within Canada, call CANUTEC at 613-996-6666 (1-888-226-8832)

• within Mexico, call CENACOM at 555128-0000 extensions 36428, 36422, 36469,

37807, 37810

• in other countries, consult page 392

The following is general guidance and does not serve as specialized incident response training.

Do not enter the scene without appropriate training and equipment.

First responders can use the following information to make an initial assessment of a situation

they suspect involves criminal or terrorist use of chemical agents, biological agents and/

or radioactive materials (CBRN). To help with this, the following paragraphs have a list of

observable indicators that a CB agent or radioactive material has been used or is present.

This section ends with a Safe Stand-Off Distance Chart for various threats when improvised

explosive devices (IEDs) are involved.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL AGENT

Chemical and biological agents as well as radioactive materials can be dispersed in the air

we breathe, the water we drink, or on surfaces we physically contact. Dispersion methods

may be as simple as opening a container or using conventional (garden) spray devices, or

as elaborate as detonating an improvised explosive device.

Chemical incidents are characterized by the rapid onset of medical symptoms (in minutes

to hours) and easily observed signatures (colored residue, dead foliage, pungent odor, dead

insects and animals).

Biological incidents are characterized by the onset of symptoms in hours to days. Typically,

there will be no characteristic signatures because biological agents are usually odorless and

colorless. Because of the delayed onset of symptoms, the affected area may be greater due

to the movement of infected people.

Radiological incidents are characterized by the onset of symptoms, if any, in days to weeks

or longer. Typically, there will be no characteristic signatures because radioactive materials

are usually odorless and colorless. Specialized equipment is needed to determine the size of

the affected area, and if the level of radioactivity is an immediate or long-term health hazard.

Because it is impossible to detect radioactivity without special equipment, the affected area

may be greater due to the migration of contaminated people.

Page 369

The most probable sources would not generate enough radiation to kill people or cause severe

illness. In a radiological incident generated by a “dirty bomb,” or radiological dispersal device

(RDD), in which a conventional explosive is detonated to spread radioactive contamination,

the primary hazard is from the explosion. However, certain radioactive materials dispersed

in the air could contaminate up to several city blocks, creating fear and possibly panic, and

needing potentially costly cleanup.

INDICATORS OF A POSSIBLE CHEMICAL INCIDENT

Dead animals/birds/fish

Not just an occasional road kill, but numerous animals

(wild and domestic, small and large), birds, and fish in

the same area.

Lack of insect life

If normal insect activity (ground, air, and/or water) is

missing, check the ground, water surface or shore line

for dead insects. If near water, check for dead fish and/

or aquatic birds.

Unexplained odors

Possible odors include fruity, flowery, sharp, pungent,

garlic, horseradish-like, bitter almonds, peach kernels, or

newly mown hay. The odor is completely out of character

with its surroundings.

Unusual numbers of dying or

sick people (mass casualties)

Health problems including nausea, disorientation,

difficulty in breathing, convulsions, localized sweating,

conjunctivitis (reddening of eyes), erythema (reddening

of skin) and death.

Pattern of casualties

Casualties will likely be distributed downwind, or if

indoors, by the air ventilation system.

Blisters or rashes

Numerous people experiencing unexplained water-like

blisters, weals (like bee stings), and/or rashes.

Illness in confined area

Different casualty rates for people working indoors versus

outdoors dependent on where the agent was released.

Unusual liquid droplets

Numerous surfaces show oily droplets or film; numerous

water surfaces have an oily film (no recent rain).

Different-looking areas

Not just a patch of dead weeds, but trees, shrubs, bushes,

food crops, and/or lawns that are dead, discolored, or

withered (no current drought).

Low-lying clouds

Low-lying cloud or fog-like condition not consistent with

its surroundings.

Unusual metal debris

Unexplained bomb or munitions-like material, especially

if it contains a liquid.

Page 370

INDICATORS OF A POSSIBLE BIOLOGICAL INCIDENT

Unusual numbers of sick or

dying people or animals

Any number of symptoms may occur. Casualties may

occur hours to days after an incident has occurred.

The time required before symptoms are observed is

dependent on the agent.

Unscheduled and unusual

spray being disseminated

Especially if outdoors during periods of darkness.

Abandoned spray devices

Devices may not have distinct odors.

INDICATORS OF A POSSIBLE RADIOLOGICAL INCIDENT

Radiation Symbols

Containers may display a “propeller” radiation symbol.

Unusual metal debris

Unexplained bomb or munitions-like material.

Heat-emitting material

Material that is hot or seems to emit heat without any

sign of an external heat source.

Glowing material

Strongly radioactive material may emit or cause

radioluminescence.

Sick people/animals

In very improbable scenarios there may be unusual

numbers of sick or dying people or animals. Casualties

may occur hours to days or weeks after an incident

has occurred. The time required before symptoms are

observed is dependent on the radioactive material used,

and the dose received. Possible symptoms include skin

reddening or vomiting.

PERSONAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

When you approach a scene that may involve CB agents or radioactive materials, the most

critical thing to consider is your safety and that of other responders.

Use protective clothing and respiratory protection of an appropriate level of safety. In incidents

where you suspect that CBRN materials have been used as weapons, NIOSH-certified

respirators with CBRN protection are highly recommended. Be aware that you may not be

able to verify or identify CB agents or radioactive materials, especially in the case of biological

or radiological agents.

The following actions apply to a chemical, biological or radiological incident. This guidance

is general. Responders will need to apply it on a case-by-case basis.

Approach and response strategies:

• Minimize exposure time.

• Maximize the distance between you and the item that is likely to harm you.

• Use cover as protection.

Page 371

• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment and respiratory protection.

• Identify and estimate the hazard by using the indicators above.

• Isolate the area and secure the scene.

• Isolate and decontaminate potentially contaminated people as soon as possible.

• To the extent possible, take measures to limit the spread of contamination.

In the event of a chemical incident, the fading of chemical odors does not necessarily indicate

reduced vapor concentrations. Some chemicals deaden the senses, giving you the false

perception that the chemical is no longer present.

If there is any indication that an area may be contaminated with radioactive materials,

including the site of any non-accidental explosion, responders:

• should be equipped with radiation detection equipment

• should have adequate training in how to use this equipment

This equipment should be designed to also alert responders when an unacceptable ambient

dose rate or ambient dose has been reached.

Initial actions to consider in a potential CBRN/terrorism event:

• Avoid using cell phones, radios, etc. within 100 meters (300 feet) of a suspect device.

• Notify your local police by calling 911.

• Set up incident command upwind and uphill of the area.

• Do not touch or move suspicious packages or containers.

• Be cautious about the potential presence of secondary devices (e.g., improvised

explosive devices (IEDs)).

• Avoid contamination.

• Limit access to only those responsible for rescue of victims or assessment of unknown

materials or devices.

• Evacuate and isolate people who were potentially exposed to hazardous materials/

dangerous goods.

• Isolate contaminated areas and secure the scene for analysis of material.

DECONTAMINATION MEASURES

For chemical and biological agents: Emergency responders should follow standard

decontamination procedures (flush-strip-flush). Mass casualty decontamination should begin

as soon as possible by stripping all clothing, and flushing with soap and water. For further

information, contact the agencies listed on the inside back cover of this guidebook.

For people contaminated with radioactive material: Take care to minimize the spread

of the contamination to the extent possible. Move them to a low radiation area if necessary,

and if it can be done safely. Remove their clothing and place it in a clearly marked and

sealed receptacle, such as a plastic bag, for later testing. Use decontamination methods

Page 372

described above, but avoid breaking the skin (e.g., vigorous brushing). External radiological

contamination on intact skin rarely causes a high enough dose to be a hazard, to either the

contaminated individual or the first responders. For this reason, prioritize medical stabilization

for a contaminated injured individual.

NOTE: The above information was developed in part by the Department of National Defence

(Canada), the U.S. Department of the Army, Aberdeen Proving Ground and the

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICE (IED)

An IED is a “homemade” bomb and/or destructive device used to destroy, incapacitate, harass,

or distract. Because they are improvised, IEDs can come in many forms, ranging from a small

pipe bomb to a sophisticated device capable of causing massive damage and loss of life.

The following table predicts the damage radius based on the volume or weight of explosive

(TNT equivalent) and the type of bomb.

GLOSSARY

Adsorbed gas

A gas which sticks (adsorbs) to the surface of a solid and porous

material (such as activated charcoal) contained within a metal

cylinder. This results in an internal cylinder pressure of less than

101.3 kPa at 20°C (14 psi at 68°F) and less than 300 kPa at 50°C

(43 psi at 122°F). These pressures are much lower than those of

conventional cylinders containing compressed or liquefied gases.

AEGL(s)

Acute Exposure Guideline Level(s), AEGLs represent threshold

exposure limits for the general public after a once-in-a-lifetime,

or rare, exposure and are applicable to emergency exposure

periods ranging from 10 minutes to 8 hours. Three levels AEGL-

1, AEGL-2 and AEGL-3 are developed for each of five exposure

periods (10 and 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, and 8 hours) and

are distinguished by varying degrees of severity of toxic effects;

see AEGL-1, AEGL-2 and AEGL-3.

AEGL-1

AEGL-1 is the airborne concentration (expressed as parts

per million or milligrams per cubic meter [ppm or mg/m

]) of a

substance above which it is predicted that the general population,

including susceptible individuals, could experience notable

discomfort, irritation, or certain asymptomatic, non-sensory

effects. However, the effects are not disabling and are transient

and reversible upon cessation of exposure.

AEGL-2

AEGL-2 is the airborne concentration (expressed as ppm or mg/

) of a substance above which it is predicted that the general

population, including susceptible individuals, could experience

irreversible or other serious, long-lasting adverse health effects

or an impaired ability to escape.

AEGL-3

AEGL-3 is the airborne concentration (expressed as ppm or mg/

) of a substance above which it is predicted that the general

population, including susceptible individuals, could experience

life-threatening health effects or death.

Alcohol-resistant foam

A foam that is resistant to polar chemicals such as ketones and

esters which may break down other types of foam.

Biological agents

Pathogens (bacteria, viruses, etc.) or the toxins they produce

S Packaged substances or articles which, if accidentally

initiated, produce effects that are usually confined to the

immediate vicinity.

Control zones

Designated areas at hazardous materials/dangerous goods

incidents, based on safety and the degree of hazard. Many terms

are used to describe control zones; however, in this guidebook,

these zones are defined as the hot/exclusion/red/restricted zone,

warm/contamination reduction/yellow/limited access zone, and

cold/support/green/clean zone. (EPA Standard Operating Safety

Guidelines, OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, NFPA 472).

nearly all individuals could be exposed for up to 1 hour without

experiencing or developing life-threatening health effects.

Flammable liquid

A liquid that has a flash point of 60°C (140°F) or lower.

Flash point

Lowest temperature at which a liquid or solid gives off vapor in

such a concentration that, when the vapor combines with air near

GLOSSARY

n.o.s.

These letters refer to “not otherwise specified”. The entries which

use this description are generic names such as “Corrosive liquid,

n.o.s.” This means that the actual chemical name for that corrosive

liquid is not listed in the regulations; therefore, a generic name

must be used to describe it on shipping papers.

Noxious

In this guidebook, means that a material may be harmful or

injurious to health or physical well-being.

Organic Peroxide

An organic (carbon-containing) compound having two oxygen

GLOSSARY

Shelter-in-place

People should seek shelter inside a building and remain inside

until the danger passes. Sheltering-in-place is used when

evacuating the public would cause greater risk than staying

where they are, or when an evacuation cannot be performed.

Direct the people inside to close all doors and windows and to

shut off all ventilating, heating and cooling systems. In-place

protection (shelter-in-place) may not be the best option if (a) the

vapors are flammable; (b) if it will take a long time for the gas to

clear the area; or (c) if buildings cannot be closed tightly. Vehicles

can offer some protection for a short period if the windows are

closed and the ventilating systems are shut off. Vehicles are not

as effective as buildings for in-place protection.

Skin corrosion

The production of irreversible damage to the skin following the

application of a test substance for up to 4 hours.

Skin irritation

The production of reversible damage to the skin following the

application of a test substance for up to 4 hours.

A spill that involves quantities that are 208 liters (55 US gallons)

or less. This generally corresponds to a spill from a single small

package (for example, a drum), a small cylinder, or a small leak

from a large package.

Specific gravity

Weight of a substance compared to the weight of an equal volume

of water at a given temperature. Specific gravity less than 1

indicates a substance is lighter than water; specific gravity greater

than 1 indicates a substance is heavier than water.

Straight (solid) stream

Method used to apply or distribute water from the end of a

hose. The water is delivered under pressure for penetration. In

an efficient straight (solid) stream, approximately 90% of the

water passes through an imaginary circle 38 cm (15 inches) in

diameter at the breaking point. Hose (solid or straight) streams

are frequently used to cool tanks and other equipment exposed

to flammable liquid fires, or for washing burning spills away from

danger points. However, straight streams will cause a spill fire to

spread if improperly used or when directed into open containers

of flammable and combustible liquids.

TIH

Toxic Inhalation Hazard. Term used to describe gases and

volatile liquids that are toxic when inhaled (same as PIH). These

materials pose a known hazard to human health during transport

or is presumed to be toxic to humans because of animal-based

studies.

Page 384

GLOSSARY

Saturated vapor concentration in air of a material in mL/m

(ppm)

at 20°C and standard atmospheric pressure.

Vapor density

Weight of a volume of pure vapor or gas (with no air present)

compared to the weight of an equal volume of dry air at the same

temperature and pressure. A vapor density less than 1 (one)

indicates that the vapor is lighter than air and will tend to rise.

A vapor density greater than 1 (one) indicates that the vapor is

heavier than air and may travel along the ground

Vapor pressure

Pressure at which a liquid and its vapor are in equilibrium at a

given temperature. Liquids with high vapor pressures evaporate

rapidly.

Viscosity

Measure of a liquid’s internal resistance to flow. This property is

important because it indicates how fast a material will leak out

through holes in containers or tanks.

Warm zone

Area between Hot and Cold zones where personnel and

equipment decontamination and hot zone support take place. It

includes control points for the access corridor and thus assists

in reducing the spread of contamination. Also referred to as

the contamination reduction corridor (CRC), contamination

reduction zone (CRZ), yellow zone or limited access zone in

other documents. (EPA Standard Operating Safety Guidelines,

OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120, NFPA 472).

Water Reactive Material

In this guidebook, materials which produce significant toxic gas

when it comes in contact with water.

Water-sensitive

Substances which may produce flammable and/or toxic

decomposition products upon contact with water.

Page 385

GLOSSARY

Water spray (fog)

Method or way to apply or distribute water. The water is finely

divided to provide for high heat absorption. Water spray patterns

can range from about 10 to 90 degrees. Water spray streams

can be used to extinguish or control the burning of a fire or to

provide exposure protection for personnel, equipment, buildings,

etc. (This method can be used to absorb vapors, knock-

down vapors or disperse vapors. Direct a water spray (fog),

rather than a straight (solid) stream, into the vapor cloud to

accomplish any of the above).

Water spray is particularly effective on fires of flammable liquids

and volatile solids having flash points above 37.8°C (100°F).

Regardless of the above, water spray can be used successfully

on flammable liquids with low flash points. The effectiveness

depends particularly on the method of application. With proper

nozzles, even gasoline spill fires of some types have been

extinguished when coordinated hose lines were used to sweep

the flames off the surface of the liquid. Furthermore, water

spray carefully applied has frequently been used with success

in extinguishing fires involving flammable liquids with high flash

points (or any viscous liquids) by causing frothing to occur only

on the surface, and this foaming action blankets and extinguishes

the fire.

NOTE:

1. The appropriate federal agency must be notified in the case of rail, air or marine incidents.

2. The nearest police department must be notified in the case of lost, stolen or misplaced

explosives, radioactive materials or infectious substances.

3. CANUTEC must be notified in the case of:

a. lost, stolen or unlawfully interfered with dangerous goods (except Class 9)

b. an incident involving infectious substances

c. an accidental release from a cylinder that has suffered a catastrophic failure

d. an incident where the shipping papers display CANUTEC's telephone number

1-888-CANUTEC (226-8832) or 613-996-6666 as the emergency telephone number or

e. a dangerous goods incident in which a railway vehicle, a ship, an aircraft, an aerodrome or

an air cargo facility is involved

3. EMERGENCY RESPONSE ASSISTANCE PLANS (Applies in Canada ONLY)

An ERAP or Emergency Response Assistance Plan is an approved plan that describes

what is to be done in the event of a transportation accident involving certain higher risk

dangerous goods. The ERAP is required by the Canadian Transportation of Dangerous

Goods Act for dangerous goods that require special expertise and response equipment

to respond to an incident. The plan is intended to assist local emergency responders by

providing them with technical experts and specially trained and equipped emergency

response personnel at the scene of a dangerous goods incident.

The ERAP will describe the specialized response capabilities, equipment and procedures

that will be used to support a response to incidents involving high risk dangerous goods.

The plan will also address emergency preparedness, including personnel training,

response exercises and equipment maintenance. The ERAP plans supplement those

of the carrier and of the local and provincial authorities, and must be integrated with

other organizations to help mitigate the consequences of an accident.

For shipments that require an ERAP, the ERAP number and the phone number to

activate the ERAP will be included on the shipping paper. If additional information is

required, or to determine if the product involved in the emergency requires an ERAP,

contact CANUTEC.

CANUTEC may be called at 1-888-CANUTEC (226-8832)

or collect at 613-996-6666 (24 hours)

UNITED STATES

NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER (NRC)

The NRC, which is operated by the U.S. Coast Guard, receives reports required when

hazardous materials are spilled. After receiving notification of an incident, the NRC will

immediately notify the appropriate Federal On-Scene Coordinator and concerned Federal

agencies. Federal law requires that anyone who releases into the environment a reportable

quantity of a hazardous material (including oil when water is, or may be affected) or a

material identified as a marine pollutant, must immediately notify the NRC. When in doubt

as to whether the amount released equals the required reporting levels for these materials,

the NRC should be notified.
