- In this assignment, you will create an organizational chart that outlines the roles and responsibilities of those who would respond to a large chemical spill in your city.
- You should presume that local, state, and federal personnel and resources will be involved in the response.
- Be sure to highlight what organization should take the lead in the response.
- Your chart should not only list each organization but should also provide brief descriptions (50–100 words) of the organization’s responsibility.
- For example, the local fire department’s response would include the following:
- Determine the identity of the materials involved.
- Determine the type and severity of hazards present.
- Assess the threat to human health and environment.
- Assess the need for evacuations, site control, security, and notifications.
- Direct interim remedial procedures to limit the spread of the materials.
- You may create the chart using any software application of your choice. You may also draw the chart by hand and upload the scanned image if necessary.
- All sources must be referenced using APA style.
