Training Objectives
The purpose of this training is to
provide an overview of the Emery
Emergency Response Procedure.
This overview will assist employees
in their response to an emergency.
Topics covered during this training
will include the discovery of an
incident, notification process and
response actions. This training will
be followed by a test to verify your
understanding of the emergency
response procedures.

Regulatory Requirements
3
Regulatory Requirements
This training satisfies the requirements of OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1910.120,
known as the HAZWOPER regulations, for the First Responder Awareness
Level. First Responders at the Awareness Level are individuals who are
likely to witness or discover a hazardous substance release and who have
been trained to initiate an emergency response sequence by notifying the
proper authorities of the release. They would take no further action beyond
initial notification.

Types of Emergencies
5
Types of Emergencies
Emergencies can include a fire, an explosion, a chemical release, a medical
emergency, a bomb threat, or a weather-related emergency. Every employee
needs to know how to respond to emergencies to ensure their safety and the
safety of their fellow employees.
6
Discovery of an Emergency
7
Discovery
Anyone may be the first person to
discover an incident. If you discover
an incident, you must first assess
the situation. This would be to
determine the type of emergency
such as a spill or fire. The person
discovering the incident must call
2222, or 482-2222 if from a mobile
phone, and report the incident.
8
Notification Procedure
9
Notification Procedures
What you report when you call 2222 after the discovery of an emergency is
very important. This information must include your name, what is the nature
of the emergency (such as fire, chemical spill, etc.), and the location of the
emergency. Do not hang up until the operator hangs up in case additional
information is required. If you are not in imminent danger, stay near the
incident scene to direct responders.
10
Notification Procedures
Notification to all site employees and to the Emery
Emergency Response Team will be initiated by the
sounding of the plant horn. A 15-second horn blast
indicates an emergency; four blasts indicate a medical
emergency; and six blasts indicate a fire emergency.
Regardless of the number of times the horn blows, when
the horn blows everyone must immediately proceed to
the nearest plectron radio to listen to the announcement
that will advise the details of the emergency.
11
Vehicle Traffic
12
Vehicle Traffic
When the horn blows to notify personnel of an emergency, all vehicle traffic
must stop immediately! The roads must be maintained free of traffic to allow
for the Emery Response Team and any external responders to have free
access to any part of the facility. Traffic must remain stopped until the
Incident Commander has determined the incident is under control and it is
okay for traffic to move about the plant.
13
Emergency Action Plans
14
Emergency Action Plans
Emergency Action Plans are
located throughout the plant in
control rooms and other strategic
locations. The EAPs provide
instructions on response actions to
be taken by employees, contractors
and visitors during an emergency.
Every Emery employee must know
where the EAP is located for their
area and be familiar with the
information provided.

Emergency Action Plans
provide details for your
response in an emergency.
This include information on
plectron locations, what the
horn blasts represent, fire
evacuations, chemical
release, Phase I tornado
evacuations, Phase II
evacuations (if applicable).
The EAP also identifes the
designated fire evacuation
area, designated shelter-inplace location, designated
tornado shelter location, and
the plant evacuation
shelters. The plant
emergency number 2222 is
also indicated.
16
Safety Plot Plan
17
Safety Plot Plan
A Safety Plot Plan is
posted near plectron
radios throughout the
plant. This Plot Plan
includes details for
specific locations of
evacuation sites,
shelter-in-place sites,
plectron locations, and
tornado shelters.
Employees should be
familiar with the
information provided
on this plan.
18
Fire Emergencies
19
Fire Emergencies
Emery employees are trained to use fire extinguishers for use on small fires. If
you discover a fire and are confident to extinguish the fire with a hand held fire
extinguisher, proceed to do so. You must advise a second person to call 2222
for notification of the emergency and for a response by the Emery response
team. If you believe the fire is too large to extinguish or you are not confident to
fight the fire, immediately call 2222 for assistance.
20
Fire Alarms
If the fire alarm has sounded in your
building, immediately proceed to
the meeting location for your
building as identified on the
Emergency Action Plan for your
work area. Do not re-enter the
building until told it is safe to do so
by the Incident Commander.
21
Shelter-In-Place
22
Shelter-In-Place
Shelter-In-Place is used to protect employees from exposure to a hazardous material
when the release or exposure will be of short duration. Instructions to shelter-in-place
will be given over the plectron radio. There is a SIP kit at every SIP location. This kit is
sealed to ensure the required contents are available when needed. Once the kit is
opened, instructions on room preparation are included in the kit. Please advise the
SHE Department if you observe that an SIP kit seal has been broken. This will allow for
verification of the proper contents and re-sealing of the SIP kit.
23
Shelter-In-Place
If instructions to SIP are given, use the contents of the SIP kit to seal around windows
and doors with plastic and tape. Always seal the door last to allow for people coming
to the shelter. Follow the instructions provided in the SIP kit. Remember to turn the
ventilation system off. A list of those employees, visitors and contractors present in
the shelter as well as those who are known to be missing from the shelter must be
provided to the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) or Incident Commander (IC). Stay
in the shelter until your are released by the EOC or Incident Commander.
24
Emergency Evacuation
25
Emergency Evacuation
The instructions to evacuate
will be provided over the
plectron radio system. An
evacuation may be required
for a release of a hazardous
chemical, a major fire, a bomb
threat, an earthquake or
terrorism. Evacuation sites are
identified on the Safety Plot
Plan by a green box around a
building. Evacuation locations
are building 63 (cafeteria),
building 65 (inside area near
reclaim), building 66
(warehouse), and building 84
(basement). In the event of an
evacuation, instructions will
be provided as to which
shelter or shelters to use.
26
Tornado Evacuation
27
Tornado Evacuation
The instructions to initiate a
tornado evacuation will be
provided over the plectron
radio system. Evacuation
sites are identified on the
Safety Plot Plan by a blue
box around a building.
Emery tornado evacuation
locations are building 6A
storeroom, building 32
basement, building 63 locker
room, and building 84
basement.
28
Tornado Evacuation
Tornado evacuations may be done in two phases. A Phase I evacuation is for all nonoperating personnel to evacuate. This would occur when a tornado warning has been
sounded in Hamilton County. A Phase II evacuation will be required for all personnel
when a tornado warning has been issued by the National Weather Service and there
are indications of tornado activity in the area. All personnel must evacuate to a
tornado shelter for a Phase II evacuation. Emery employees are informed at
orientation if they are required to evacuate for a Phase I evacuation. If you are not sure
when you must evacuate for a tornado, contact your supervisor.
29
Conclusion
Knowing what to do should an emergency occur is extremely
important for your safety and for the safety of others. A proper
response will protect your safety or possibly save your life. If
you have any questions concerning your response in any
emergency situation, please discuss this with your supervisor
or any member of the SH&E staff.
Please complete the exam for this training session.
