EPA RCRA Hazardous Waste Management 264.37: § 264.37 Arrangements with local authorities

The owner or operator must attempt to make arrangements, as appropriate to the waste handled and the potential need for services, to familiarise police, fire departments and emergency response teams with the facility layout, waste properties and hazards, work locations, entrances and internal roads and possible evacuation routes; where more than one police or fire department might respond, agreements designating primary emergency authority to specific ones with support agreements for others; agreements with state emergency response teams, emergency response contractors and equipment suppliers; and arrangements to familiarise local hospitals with the waste properties and the injuries or illnesses that could result. Where state or local authorities decline, the refusal must be documented in the operating record.

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.
