personnel. A Stage 2 Field Action occurs when an emergency situation cannot be <br /> successfully resolved at the First Responder level.

A coordinated Stage 2 field response operation <br /> willcontinue until the situation has been successfully resolved. <br /> Field Action: Operations <br /> General guidelines for responding to incidents that involve specific hazardous materials <br /> classes or accident scenarios are provided below. The specific course of action taken during <br /> a Stage 2 Field Response Action will be determined by the ongoing incident evaluation. <br /> Rescue is the primary duty of any field response. Emergency response equipment locations <br /> are located in 8.3.2 (d). <br /> After notification the Responder will proceed to the Operations Phase of response. The type <br /> of action taken in the operations phase will depend on the incident and the Responder's <br /> capability. All other site personnel have response training and should immediately begin <br /> Stage 2 operations when notification is complete. The quantity and concentration of <br /> hazardous material released and the presence or absence of fire will be the primary factor in <br /> determining operations strategy. Proper personal protection equipment (PPE) is mandatory <br /> during response operations. Choice of PPE will depend on the type of material involved and <br /> the potential for contact with the material. <br /> Suggested operational strategies and PPE requirements are listed below for potential <br /> HazMat incidents. Every effort should be made, that does not involve an unwarranted risk to <br /> responders, to eliminate ongoing leak or spill sources (re: closing valves, etc.) prior to <br /> beginning operations. <br /> Revenue Mine May 2021 Rule 8-12 <br />
