Wines, III Hazardous Materials Specialist Office of Environmental Services HHW/dm enclosure SELECTION OF A BUSINESS FOR RISK MANAGEMENT AND PREVENTION PROGRAM Authority: Chapter 6.95, Article 2, CA Health & Safety Code Section 25534 requires an Administering Agency (AA) to make a preliminary determination of the likelihood that a handler's use of an acutely hazardous material (AHM) poses a significant accident risk. The definition of an accident (Section 25532), which could result in significant injury or death, is not limited to offsite consequences. If a significant likelihood of an accident is found to exist, Section 25534 states that the Administering Agency shall require completion of a Risk Management and Prevention Program (RMPP). Risks that are found to be remote do not require a RMPP unless the Administering Agency so chooses. Estimates of risk are to be based upon worst case assumptions. Ranking Method: Any handler whose use or storage of an AHM exceeds California's adopted total'planning quantity (TPQ) will be evaluated for accident risk according to the following ranking scale. If a mixture containing an AHM component exceeds the TpQ, the mixture is considered to be an AHM whose use should be evaluated according to the risk ranking scale. The rating subscales and rating rational are attached. 1. Facility Risk Index - determined by the scoring of a facility risk questionnaire. 2. History of Hazardous Materials Inspections - O x 3 = a percentage based upon the number of violations. 3. Population Exposed - determined by the score derived by the attached scale. 4. Mass Casualty Potential - taken from the ~-x 1 = Registry of Chemical Synonyms prepared by Dr. John Arterberry of the Northridge Toxicology Center. 5. Toxicity factor. Quantity AHM/TPQ x % concentration Total Risk Ranking = sum of # 1 - 5 above. CITY of BAKERSFIELD ...... "WE CARE" FIRE DEPARTMENT 2101 H STREET S. O.
