ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS: <br />The Hazardous Materials Emergency Plan includes site-specific information on each known <br />facility that contains threshold levels of chemicals identified in the legislation. Each site must <br />be visited by staff for completion and determination of an analysis related to hazards and <br />vulnerability, including information that could adversely affect the surrounding area or an <br />emergency responder at the respective site. Evacuation routes must be determined as well as <br />calculations related to the extent of plume exposures that could exist should a spill or release <br />occur based on known substances. <br />Once completed, the Hazardous Materials Emergency Plan will be distributed to the various <br />emergency responders in the County. Staff recognizes that this is a very useful and important <br />document to emergency response personnel in that some knowledge of the chemicals at a site <br />will be available prior to arriving at the known location. <br />RECOIVIlVIENDATION: <br />Staff recommends approval of the FY -97/98 Hazardous Materials Emergency Planning <br />Agreement and requests the Board of County Commissioners authorize the Chairman to execute <br />the appropriate documents to secure the funding of $11,508. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously approved the FY <br />1997-98 Hazardous Materials Emergency Planning Agreement <br />and authorized <br />the <br />Chairman <br />to execute <br />the appropriate <br />documentation <br />to <br />secure the <br />funding <br />of $11,508, as <br />recommended by staff. <br />AGREEMENT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE <br />OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />11.B.2.
