After making the initial notification of the emergency,the First Responder will proceed <br /> to the Field Action Phase of response.The type of action taken by the First Responder <br /> during an emergency situation will depend on an ongoing evaluation of the incident and <br /> the First Responder's capability to respond. <br /> First Responders should always make an initial response to incidents that are within the <br /> capabilities of a single person to correct or control until help arrives. Generally, a single <br /> person can successfully correct or control small fires, small hazardous materials or <br /> designated chemicals spills, and minor accidents that do not represent an unwarranted <br /> health hazard to a single responder.The First Responder must always be prepared to <br /> retreat and monitor the situation from a safe distance until help arrives if the initial <br /> incident evaluation, or the responder's ongoing evaluation, indicates that an <br /> unwarranted hazard exists or may develop. <br /> Stage 2 Operations:Multiple Responders <br /> Stage 2 response operations are coordinated site-wide operations involving multiple <br /> personnel. Stage 2 response operations are initiated during the notification phase of any <br /> emergency response and proceed through the three distinct Stage 2 activity phases of <br /> Alert, Mobilization, and Field Actions. <br /> Stage 2 Alert <br /> Sounding of the Emergency Alarm Horn (Fire Alarm) during the Notification Phase of an <br /> emergency situation constitutes the Alert phase of a Stage 2 response operation and <br /> signals the beginning of a Stage 2 site response. All EFR and non-EFR personnel are to <br /> immediately proceed to a designated assembly point when the Emergency Alarm Horn <br /> (Fire Alarm) is sounded. <br /> Stage 2 Mobilization <br /> Mobilization for Stage 2 response operations consists of the assembly and organization <br /> of site surface personnel for coordinated response operations and will terminate at the <br /> end of mobilization if the emergency situation is successfully resolved at the First <br /> Responder level.The site will demobilize and the Remediation Phase of the Emergency <br /> Response Plan will be executed if the situation is resolved at the First Responder level. <br /> Mobilization: Assembly <br /> All surface personnel are required to report to a designated assembly point when the <br /> alert signal is sounded.The primary assembly point for EFR personnel during an <br /> emergency situation will be determined.The primary assembly point for non-EFR <br /> personnel will be determined. <br /> Mobilization: Basic PPE Requirements <br /> All personnel reporting for Stage 2 response operations will don hard hats, safety <br /> glasses, and steel-toed safety shoes if not already donned.This is the minimum <br /> personnel protective equipment(PPE) required during response operations.
