^ I~To injuries to employees
^ Na exposure to the public
Chlorine and Sulfur Diagide
Storagert3selFla~arda
^ Several ton cylinders at each site
^ Chlorine - disinfection of drinking water and
treated efIluent
^ Sulfitr Dioxide - for dechlorination of effluent
after disinfection
^ Both chemicals are toxicants
- Primary route of effect is respiratory
- Chemicals mix with moisture to form acids, destrayina
tissue
Facilities -Water and ~'Vastewater
Plants
Tbreshald Level - 1000 paunds of chemical on-site

Why Risk Management Planning?
Public Safety
^ Facility and equipment inventory/inspection
^ Training and certification of personnel
^ Processes and procedures review
^ Prearranged emergency procedures

At every site:
^ Chlorine or Sulfur Dioxide leak alarms
- Set at very low level - 0.1 part per million
- Connected to auto-dialers for emergency response
^ Cylinders operate on vacuum system.
- >f vacuum is broken, cylinder shuts off automatically
- No chemical forced out ifa line ruptures
^ Cylinder containment kits and SCBAs located on-
site
Prevention Program
Safety Management system
^ PSMIRMP Teams and Safety Committee
* Operational Procedures development
- Hazard evaluations and review
- Training
- Audits and inspections
^ Preventive Maintenance and Mechanical Integrity
Program
~ Process and safety equipment that exceeds
regulatory standards
Risk Management Program
Staff Involvement
- City Manager
- Public Safety Director and Jas HAZMAT
- Public Works Director/Assistant Directox
- Safety Coordinator
- Plant Division Directors

Incident Investigation
After every incident ar near-miss
^ Automatic added precaution
^ Needed improvements discussedlimplemented
Offsite Consequence Analysis
Required by EPA-Air Dispersion Modeling
^ Performed for each facility
^ Examines Worst case scenario and alternative
scenario
^ tiVorst case -One ton release
- Toxic endpoint at l .3 miles
^ Alternative scenario -Yoke assembly failure
- Toxic endpoint at 0.2 miles
Emergency Response
Alarm Condition
^ Validation
^ Notify Emergency Response (~ 11)
• Containment of release
^ Evacuation if determined necessary by Public
