Part 262 Subpart M: LQG preparedness, prevention and emergency procedures – EPA RCRA Hazardous Waste Management

EPA RCRA Hazardous Waste Management 262.256: § 262.256 Arrangements with local authorities

The LQG must attempt to make arrangements with the local police and fire departments, other emergency response teams, emergency response contractors, equipment suppliers and local hospitals (or the Local Emergency Planning Committee where appropriate), taking account of the types and quantities of waste handled: determining the potential need for the other services when arranging with the fire department; familiarising those organisations, as necessary, with the facility layout, the properties and hazards of the waste, where personnel work, entrances and roads, possible evacuation routes and the injuries or illnesses that could result; and, where more than one police or fire department might respond, designating a primary emergency authority with support arrangements for others. Records in the operating record must confirm that arrangements exist or that attempts were made. A facility with 24-hour response capability may seek a documented waiver from the authority having jurisdiction over the fire code.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • 68.93 § 68.93 Emergency response coordination activities
  • 5.4.5 5.4.5 Mutual aid, assistance or partnership agreements determined and documented

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
