Emergency responders are those people who may be the first emergency personnel to arrive at hazardous material/waste incidents and are expected to take some evasive actions to protect the people or the environment. Most emergency responders are limited in their ability to perform aggressive actions due to lack of knowledge or training and lack of resources. Emergency response personnel must understand the Regularity Information & Rules and how to stay within the boundaries delimited by these Rules. These rules include OSHA, 29 CFR, Part 1910.120, Hazardous Waste Operation and Emergency Response and NFPA 472 Standard for Professional Competence of Responders to Hazardous Materials Incidents.
