Ottawa County Hazard Analysis
Ohio Revised Code Chapter 3750.04 requires LEPCs to develop Hazard Analysis for all EHS
facilities located within the county. The hazard analysis attempts to model a chemical release
and identify vulnerable areas that may be impacted in the incident. The Analysis maps were
developed using Technical Guidance for Hazard Analysis, Ottawa County vulnerable population
data, and in some cases recommendations from facilities.
Chemicals with an airborne risk are modeled using Aerial Locations of Hazardous Atmospheres
(ALOHA). The Hazard Analysis Map displays a vulnerability zone based on the ALOHA plume
scenario. Due to limitations in the software, the maximum release that can be modeled is six
miles. Facilities that have a worst case scenario greater than 6.0 miles will have data for up to
six miles, unless otherwise specified. In most cases the plume was modeled using the chemical
amount stored in the largest container. Some vulnerability scenarios may be modeled based
on recommendations from the facilities and these cases are noted on the maps.
Many EHS chemicals do not present an airborne hazard. These facilities have been mapped with
a 1.0 mile display. The data presented on the hazard analysis for these facilities reflects 1.0
mile with emphasis placed on identifying potential drainage routes that may be impacted by a
release.
Ottawa County Hazard Analysis Maps have identified the population that will be potentially
affected by a chemical release. Population estimates are taken from the US Census data
available in the program Mapping Applications for Response, Planning, and Local Operational
Tasks (MARPLOT).
Evacuation and transportation routes have been highlighted on each individual map.
Transportation routes are highlighted in red, and are considered to be the most likely roads in
which chemicals are transported to and from the facility. In some cases facilities may ship by
rail, and in these circumstances the railroad name has been noted on the hazard analysis.
Evacuation routes are highlighted in blue and are considered the likeliest routes of egress from
the facility.
The chemical inventory section on the analysis is broken into EHS and Non-EHS Chemicals.
Maps may contain either actual inventory numbers or range codes. Ottawa County attempts to
use actual inventory numbers when possible. In some cases, a facility’s inventory may fluctuate
from year to year and the use of actual numbers may not be practical. In these cases the range
codes, in pounds, are preferred.
Many of the maps identify critical facilities that may be impacted by a chemical release. In
some cases a facility may be located on or near the border of a neighboring county. Ottawa
County LEPC has limited data for the surrounding counties, however in some cases the data is
available and noted on the maps. Ottawa County is surrounded by the following counties:
Lucas, Wood, Sandusky, and Erie.
Hazard Analysis maps may contain the following data:
 Major Waterways
 Assisted Living and long term care facilities
 Schools
 Churches
 Environmental Concerns
 Government Facilities
 Additional risk facilities-EHS and Non-EHS locations
The following factors are used to develop the ALOHA plume releases. The atmospheric data
used is partially based on US EPA’s Guidelines for Worst Case Scenarios under the Risk
Management Planning Program.

Danbury Schools
Evacuation routes North and South: SR 269 East: SR 163 West: SR 163, SR 2
Trans. Routes
State Routes 163, 269 and 2 are the routes that EHS materials are transported to the
facility.
RISK ANALYSIS
Degree of hazard Low. Injuries would not be expected.
Likelihood
Low. Six 150-pound cylinders are always connected to the system. The system is
under pressure. Six additional cylinders are stored with the others. The cylinders are
chained off, are in a concrete building, and are only used from May 1 through October
31.
Consequences
Some personnel could be exposed and injured.
Consequences
Minimal. Vegetation and fauna in the immediate area of the release would be
impacted. No long-term damage would be expected.
DISCUSSION: The worst-case scenario described assumes the following:
 The level of concern used for the calculations is 1.0 ppm. This level is 10% of the 10 ppm level
considered by OSHA to be immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH).
 The scenario involved a release of 900 pounds of chlorine (6-150-pound cylinders) over ten-minutes.
 Very little wind dispersion occurs. The wind speed used for calculation of the vulnerable zone is 3.4
mph (1.5 meters/sec.).
 Ambient air temperature is 21C. (70F.)
5. COMMENTS:
 The facility has a chlorine “A” kit, a salvage cylinder, SCBAs, and a permanently install chlorine
detection instrument.

Chemical Diesel Fuel
Quantity Maximum amount on site is 10000 gallons (1-10000 gallon storage tank)
Properties Diesel fuel is immiscible and lighter than water. It can create environmental hazards for marine life,
disrupt boating traffic on navigable waters, and present problems for public water intakes.
Vulnerability Zone The spilled fuel could reach Lake Erie within an hour of being spilled. The fuel could migrate
miles up river with adequate river current to carry it.
Population
The population affected by a release would include boaters, public water users, and water
treatment facilities.
Essential services Water treatment facilities.
RISK ANALYSIS
Degree of hazard Low. Little or no risk of injury or death to the general public.
Likelihood
Low. The tank isn’t normally completely full and the total loss of the tank is not likely.
Consequences
Some personnel could be exposed. Exposure would cause minimal health affects.
Consequences
Minimal. Vegetation and marine life (including migratory birds) in the immediate area of the
release would be impacted. No long-term damage would be expected.
 The scenario involved a release of 10000 gallons of diesel fuel over ten-minutes.
 Wind direction and river current would have significant effects on the extent of product migration in both
the Portage River and Lake Erie.
COMMENTS:
 The facility has very limited spill containment capabilities.
 Below is a map of the Portage River and Lake Erie that could potentially be impacted.

Introduction
A. Purpose
 The Purpose of this plan is to provide for the proper coordination of resources by mitigation and
preparedness action in order to effectively respond to a hazardous materials emergency. Local
Government must make the initial response for the prompt and orderly deployment of these resources.
The Emergency Management Agency (EMA) Director has the authority to activate this plan.
B. Basis Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(7)
 Hazards Analyses for this plan will be done using the following resources:
 Technical Guidance for Hazards Analysis manual
 CAMEO (Computerized Automated Management of Emergency Operations)
 ALOHA (Area Locations of Hazardous Atmospheres)
 Marplot
 The following assumptions are made when hazards analyses are being completed (unless it is noted
otherwise on the hazard analysis):
 rural geographic setting (best setting for minimum dispersion and greatest concentrations during
airborne releases)
 maximum material quantity
 actual storage conditions
 most stable weather conditions possible
 Facilities participate in hazard analyses by providing a site tour and reviewing the analysis. Local
emergency responders (i.e. fire, EMS) may also participate.
1
II. Situations and Assumptions
A. Situations
 Fixed Facility Hazards Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(1,2,5,7)
 There are a number of sites within the county that have reported extremely hazardous substances
(EHSs) and/or hazardous substances (HSs) in their inventories. EHSs are defined by the USEPA as
chemicals, which can cause both severe and long-term health effects after a single, brief exposure.
These sites are listed as part of Tab D.
 Risk analyses on some of these facilities can be found in Tab A. These risk analyses identify
vulnerable facilities in close proximity to these facilities, summarize the geography in the area of
these facilities, identify the population at risk in the area of these facilities, and other potential risks
of these facilities.
 Transportation Hazards Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(3)
 There are major vehicular, rail, vessel, and air transportation routes, which pass through the county.
Both truck and train traffic transport hazardous substances and extremely hazardous substances (as
defined by the USEPA). Main transportation routes through the county include:
 State Routes 2, 19, 51, 53, 105, 163, 579, 590
 Interstate 80/90
 Norfolk Southern Railroads
 Carl R. Keller Field (Regional Airport)
 Lake Erie
 The occurrence of a release along any of these transportation routes would likely affect some
residents in the county. Most of the transportation routes in the county have homes in close
proximity to them. Should a release occur, evacuation and/or sheltering of residents near these
transportation routes might be necessary. The topography of the land in the county (flat with few
trees) makes the risks of a transportation incident more likely to affect a larger area due to the easy
and uniform spreading of a gaseous release.
B. Assumptions
 The existence of fixed hazardous materials facilities in the county provides the potential for a toxic air
and/or water release hazard to the citizens located in the risk area.
 The protective actions to be taken by the citizens in the risk area are in-place sheltering or evacuation.
 The amount of time available to determine the scope and magnitude of the incident will impact the
protective actions recommended.
 In the event of a Level III incident (see Tab I. for definition) many of the residents in the risk area will
choose to evacuate spontaneously without official order or recommendation. Many will leave by routes
not designated as main evacuation routes.
 In the event of an evacuation, at least 75% of the population at risk will relocate to private homes or
motel facilities. For planning purposes, mass care centers will be identified for 25% of the risk
population.
 During the summer months a significant increase in the population occurs in the east end of the county,
thus increasing the number of potential evacuees.
 There are a number of time variables that could influence the response capabilities to an incident, those
variables include:
 National holidays (i.e. Memorial, Independence, etc.)
 Walleye Festival, Port Clinton - Memorial Day Weekend
 Ottawa County Fair, Ottawa County Fairgrounds - third week in July
 National Rifle Matches at Camp Perry - July and August
 Apple Festival, Oak Harbor - second weekend in October
 Put-In-Bay - all summer
 Summer weekends see a large increase in transient population
 A transportation incident that involves hazardous materials may require the evacuation of residents at
any location within the county.
 Hazardous materials entering the sewage system may necessitate the shutdown of sewage plants. This
may result in the release of untreated sewage.
 Wind shifts may occur that result in redesignating protective action decisions.
 All fire departments are volunteer or combination volunteer/paid, which increases response times.
2

Ottawa County fire departments will respond within their capabilities. Most departments will not
respond beyond the operations level.
3

Concept of Operations
A. Mitigation Activities
 All political subdivisions within the county have zoning laws that restrict the development and/or
movement of potential EHS facilities within residential areas except for the following:
 Bay Township
 Carroll Township
 Erie Township
 As part of the mitigation process the LEPC will visit EHS facilities during hazard analyses if possible.
B. Preparedness Activities
 Mutual Aid Plan Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(10)
 All county fire departments have mutual aid agreements with each other. Some fire departments
that border other counties have mutual aid agreements with the fire departments directly adjacent to
them in those counties. These mutual aid contracts are primarily for EMS and fire fighting,
however, they include hazardous materials response within each department’s capabilities. The
county EMA has mutual aid agreements in place with some of the bordering county’s EMAs for
support and resources. In addition to these local mutual aid agreements, Ohio Revised Code
5502.41 contains provisions for Intrastate Mutual for all political subdivisions within the State of
Ohio. Tab K contains copies of these mutual aid agreements.
 Mutual aid for hazardous materials incidents may be obtained from Toledo Fire Haz Mat, Erie
County Haz Mat or from the Sun Oil Refinery. There may be situations where these response teams
are not available and Ottawa County and Erie County will have to deal with the incident itself. In
the case they are unavailable, the responsible party would be requested to hire an environmental
contractor. Toledo Fire and Sun Oil can provide limited response capabilities to Ottawa County.
Ottawa County Fire Departments may be required to decontaminate these mutual aid response
teams.
 Ottawa County can provide mutual aid for mitigation of hazardous materials events with limited
response capabilities. Private responders will be used in mitigating incidents in Ottawa County
when the incident is beyond the capabilities of local responders. The party responsible for a spill,
not local government agencies, should contract private companies for cleanup activities.
 Additionally, the Ohio Fire Chief’s Association Emergency Response Plan is another avenue to
acquire mutual aid.
 Training Program Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(11)
 Training is required of responders that will respond to and attempt to mitigate a hazardous materials
release. The training shall meet all applicable National Fire Protection Association and
Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards for response to hazardous materials
incidents.
 Training (both initial and refresher) is provided to fire, emergency medical service (EMS), law
enforcement, hospital personnel, and any other response agencies by the LEPC.
 Training Requirements:
 First Responder - Awareness Level
o Law enforcement, fire department, EMS, and highway personnel that could be the first on
the scene of an emergency involving hazardous materials should have awareness level
training. Awareness level training should train the responder to recognize the presence of
hazardous materials, protect themselves, call for trained personnel, and secure the area.
o EMS personnel who in the course of their duties might be called on to perform patient care
activities in the cold zone at a hazardous materials incident should have awareness level
training. They shall provide care only to those individuals who no longer pose a significant
risk of secondary contamination. Some EMS departments within the County are equipped
to treat contaminated victims. Those that can are listed on Tab L (Training Summary).
 First Responder-Operations Level
o Fire department personnel that respond to releases or potential releases of hazardous
materials as part of the initial response to the incident for the purpose of protecting nearby
persons, the environment, or property from the effects of the release should have
operations level training. They are expected to respond in a defensive fashion to control
the release from a safe distance and keep it from spreading.
4
o


EMS personnel who in the course of their duties might be called upon to perform patient
care activities in the warm zone at hazardous materials incidents should have operations
level training. They may be required to provide care to those individuals who still pose a
significant risk of secondary contamination. In addition personnel at this level shall be
able to coordinate EMS activities at a hazardous materials incident and provide medical
support for hazardous materials response personnel.
o Hospital personnel that will be treating potentially contaminated/injured individuals should
have operations level training.
o The incident commander is responsible for all decisions relating to the management of the
incident. This position should be filled with someone trained at a minimum to the
operations level and with some formal incident command training (ICS 100, 200, 300, and
400).
 Hazardous Material Technician Level
o The site safety officer works to ensure that recognized safe practices are followed within
the response. The safety officer is called upon to provide technical advice or assistance
regarding safety issues to the IC. This position should be filled with someone trained, at a
minimum, to the technician level.
 Goals: 30% of fire department personnel and EMS personnel will be provided with operations
level training and with annual refresher training. 75 % EMS, law enforcement, and emergency
room personnel will be provided with Awareness level training annually. 10% of EMS
personnel will be provided with technician level training (required for treating
contaminated/injured persons per OSHA 1910.120 and NFPA 471).
 Each of these departments is responsible for the scheduling and maintenance of this training for
their departments. The EMA will assist departments in scheduling training and providing
instructors.
 As long as funding is available, the LEPC may pay for hazardous materials training for
responders in Ottawa County.
 The LEPC may hold informational sessions for reporting facilities as appropriate.
 Training sources may include, but are not limited to, the Ohio Fire Academy, the University of
Findlay, and Cleveland State University.
Public Education
 The LEPC will provide public information to the community. Methods to be used vary from
brochures, calendars, pamphlets, and telephone book inserts to different outreach programs aimed at
various segments of the county’s population. It is the responsibility of the LEPC’s Training and
Public Education subcommittee to provide information to the public.
Resource Management Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(5,8)
 The Ottawa County EMA has compiled a manual listing various resources available within the
county. These resources include such things as backhoes, water trucks, hazardous materials cleanup
contractors, boom, pads, etc.
 Ottawa County emergency responders, primarily fire departments, have two hazardous materials
response trailers available to them. They are located at the Danbury Township Fire Station
(formerly Lakeside Fire Station) and Allen-Clay Station #3. Emergency responders using the
materials in these trailers must be trained to the operations level. Inventory lists of the trailers are
available in the resource manual. Supplies include: absorbent boom, pads, and socs; boots, tyvek
suits, goggles, and gloves; shovels, overpack drum, and oil sorb.
 Law enforcement and emergency medical service personnel have a limited amount of personal
protective equipment available to them. The equipment will allow them to operate in some
hazardous environments for a very limited amount of time.
 A Hazardous Material Response Team may be available from the Toledo Fire Department. Private
response teams are also available (Sun Oil). The Sun Oil Haz Mat Team must be requested through
the Oregon Fire Department. These resources are listed in Tab C.
 Hazard Analyses are conducted for each EHS facility and many of the other facilities subject to the
reporting requirements within the county; this provides information on what resources may be
needed for each facility in the case of a release.
5

The Community Emergency Coordinator for Ottawa County is the EMA Director. The Deputy
Director is the alternate.
 The heads of emergency response organizations during a hazardous materials incident within the
townships, villages, and cities of the county will be the fire chief of that particular jurisdiction. The
County Emergency Operations Plan contains details on general emergency functions of such
responders as EMS, law enforcement, health department, etc.
C. Response Procedures
 Initial Notification Ohio Revised Code 3750.06
 Facilities that have a release exceeding the reportable quantity or entering a navigable water must
contact the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department at (419) 734-4404 (24 hours) within 30 minutes.
This notification must include the following information: location of release, name of substance
involved, estimated amount released, time and duration of the release, the environmental medium or
media into which the substance was released, known or anticipated health risks, proper precautions
to take, and the name and phone number of person or persons to be contacted for further
information. The Sheriff’s Department records all the information on the Incident Information
Summary Form (Tab B). The Sheriff’s Department then notifies the appropriate fire department
and the EMA. The EMA will ensure the responsible party has notified Ohio EPA.
 Transportation incidents involving a reportable release must be reported to the Ottawa County
Sheriff’s Department or local law enforcement. The dispatchers follow the same notification
procedure as they would with a fixed facility incident (described in the previous paragraph).
 Responsible parties that have a release must initially report the incident as stated above. In addition
to the 30-minute verbal reporting requirement, the responsible party, must also provide a written
follow up report within thirty days to the Ottawa County LEPC. This written 30-day follow-up
report must include the following: actions taken to respond to and contain the release, any known or
anticipated health risks, advice regarding medical attention necessary for individuals exposed, and a
summary of all actions taken by the owner or operator to prevent the recurrence of a release.
 The Incident Commander (IC) should perform an initial site assessment to determine the emergency
classification level. Emergency classification levels are defined in the incident assessment section
of this plan and in Tab I. (Abbreviations and Definitions). The emergency classification level will
determine what notifications need to be made.
 The responding fire department should notify the EMA whenever the release of a hazardous
material is involved in an incident. The EMA can be notified via the Sheriff’s Dispatch.
 The Sheriff’s Department will alert response organizations with the assistance of EMA.
 In the case of a Level I incident (potential emergency condition):
o the Ottawa County Emergency Management Agency (OCEMA) Director is notified
o the OCEMA notifies the Ohio EMA (when a state route is closed or other state assistance
is needed)
o dispatch or the OCEMA may be directed to notify the following:
- Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- Public Officials (mayor, trustees, commissioners, etc.)
- American Red Cross - Ottawa County
- Hospitals
- CHEMTREC
- National Response Center
 In the case of a Level II incident (limited emergency condition);
o the OCEMA Director is notified
o the Sheriff is notified
o support agencies are put on standby (i.e. mutual aid departments, American Red Cross Ottawa County)
o OCEMA notifies the Ohio EMA (when a state route is impacted or other state assistance is
needed)
o OCEMA notifies the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station if the incident is within the 10mile emergency planning zone

 the incident has the potential to impact their county
 it becomes evident that resources from other counties are necessary
 The Community Emergency Coordinator (the EMA Director or designee) will be responsible to
implement the provisions of this plan.
Incident Assessment Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 The IC should perform an initial site assessment to determine the emergency classification level.
The emergency classification levels are defined in Tab I. This assessment will determine the
response level.
 The following steps should be followed during the initial site assessment by the IC:
 evaluate incident
 rescue or evacuate if necessary (use proper protective equipment)
 assess any visible activity taking place (such as leaking tanks, response actions taking place by
responsible party, etc.)
 evaluate the effects of wind, rain, topography, etc. on the release
 determine the level of the incident (incident definitions are found in Tab I)
 position apparatus for emergency escape
 establish command post, staging, and access locations
 evaluate the risks (in conjunction with the EOC if it is operational)
 determine if one of the hazardous materials response trailers will be necessary
 determine if the OCHMERT or other haz mat teams will be needed
 determine if technical support will be necessary (i.e. NOAA, USEPA, etc.)
7

 determine what public protective actions should be taken
 initiate public alert/notification (in conjunction with the EOC if it is operational)
 Emergency response personnel shall use extreme caution when responding to a hazardous materials
incident. Emergency response personnel should assess the situation based on the training they have
received and on their Suggested Operating Guidelines, if available. Caution should be taken to use
and wear the required protective equipment. The incident commander must ensure that all
responders at an incident do not respond beyond their level of training. If the situation is beyond
the capabilities of the personnel, the IC should call in the appropriate mutual aid to handle the
situation or notify the EOC of their needs.
 Most fire departments in Ottawa County will take a defensive role in a hazardous materials incident
due to a lack of training and equipment capabilities. These departments will rely on mutual aid
from operations level departments. If the incident can be contained, the responding department may
call for one of the hazardous materials response trailers and an operations level department (if the
department itself is not at the operations level) to contain the incident using the materials from the
trailer. The trailers should be requested through the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Dispatch. The
dispatcher will tone out the requested department (Danbury or Allen-Clay Station #3) and notify
Ottawa County EMA that one of the trailers has been mobilized. Some departments have limited
supplies of containment materials (i.e. boom, pads, socs, etc.) at their stations and may elect to use
these supplies to contain an incident.
 When an incident is beyond the capabilities of the local fire department and mutual aid departments
with operations level training Ottawa County will request a mutual aid Hazardous Materials
Emergency Response Team to mitigate an incident.
 The EMA and the Ohio EPA shall monitor the movement and effects of the release as described
below:
 Assessment tools are available to the EMA. These tools include CAMEO, ALOHA, and
various chemical references.
 Assessment tools can be obtained from Ohio EMA, Ohio EPA, and other state and federal
agencies.
 Where applicable, the health department will ensure food and water supplies are safe for human
consumption.
 In order to protect the water supply in the affected areas bottled water shall be recommended
for use and supplied if available.
 The initial incident assessment shall be done from a safe distance, if possible. All information
obtained from the dispatcher shall be considered during the incident assessment.
 The IC, in conjunction with the EMA, will develop an incident action plan.
 The local police department, the Sheriff’s Department, or a fire department will control access
to the scene.
 Facility personnel should provide a liaison to work with the IC and to help coordinate the
facilities response with the local emergency response personnel.
 Private agencies and/or contractors may be used at some point in the response to the incident.
The IC will determine the need for these agencies. The IC may request the EOC to coordinate
the efforts of these personnel. Private resources will be contracted by the responsible party
whenever possible.
 Results from monitoring and assessments shall be used to determine the protective action decisions.
Direction and Control
 Incident Command Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 The diagram in Tab O illustrates an example of the type of Incident Command System to be
used during a hazardous materials incident.
 The Incident Commander (IC) will determine the exact structure of the incident command
system based on the needs of the incident. The National Incident Management System (NIMS)
will be adhered to at all incidents.
 The IC will establish an incident command post at a site that is a safe distance from the scene
and in an upwind direction. The incident command post should be marked conspicuously with
a light or sign of some sort. The IC should remain at the command post.
8


The IC has overall control of the scene. The IC may use law enforcement units to control the
scene.
 Each fire department in the county shall use their operating guidelines to respond to different
emergency classification scenes.
 Activities shall be coordinated with the EOC or EMA through the IC or a liaison from the EOC
that is at the command post.
 The IC may obtain resources with assistance from the EMA and/or the EOC.
 In the case of an extended response effort (longer than 24 hours) shift changes will occur within
the fire department of jurisdiction. The fire department of jurisdiction will remain in charge of
the scene and possibly call in additional mutual aid to relieve those departments first called for
mutual aid.
 Facility personnel shall work with the IC and provide all resources available to help in the
response effort. These resources may include manpower, equipment, and information.
 Private contractors will be under the control of the responsible party. Responders shall not call
contractors unless they are willing to assume the financial responsibility for the cleanup.
 Support agencies to be called to the scene may include the local utilities, the local facility
representatives, and many others. These agencies shall report to the IC, and can be located on
scene or at the EOC.
 State and federal resources, if needed and available, can be coordinated through the EOC.
Emergency Operations Center Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 The EOC will be activated when the EMA director and/or the IC determines that conditions are
such that require the resources available through the EOC. The EMA director is in charge of the
operations of the EOC.
 The EOC will perform any activities that the IC or the EMA director determines necessary. These
actions may include the gathering of resources, making public announcements, and coordinating
response efforts. Agencies within the EOC may make protective action decisions for areas such as
schools in the area, nursing homes, hospitals, etc.
 In the case of an extended response effort (one lasting longer than 24 hours) the EMA director shall
order a shift change. The EOC has the ability to operate on a 24 hour basis.
 A diagram of the primary EOC (located in the basement of the Ottawa County Court House in Port
Clinton) is located in Tab F. Alternate EOC locations could include either the Village of Oak
Harbor Council Chambers or the Border Patrol Facility in Portage Township.
 The EOC staffing for a hazardous materials event will depend on the severity of the event. In a
level I event only minor staffing such as EMA personnel may be necessary. In a Level III event full
staffing may be necessary. The EMA director shall determine the amount of staffing needed in the
EOC.
 EOC positions are as follows:
 EMA Director
 Commissioner(s)
 County Administrator
 Engineer
 Sheriff (may be on the scene)
 Fire/EMS Liaison
 National Guard
 Job and Family Services
 Special Facilities Coordinator
 Public Information Officer (may be on the scene)
 EMA Field Liaison (may be on the scene)
 City/Village Mayor
 Township Trustee(s)
 Health Department
 American Red Cross
 Salvation Army
 State of Ohio officials
 Facility Representatives

 Other agencies that may be able to provide assistance or may be affected by the incident.
 Forms and logs used by EOC personnel are found in Tab G.
Communications Among Responders Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(6)
 Radio communication will be the primary means of communication for the incident commander.
All agencies responding to the scene should have the capability to communicate via radio. Radio
frequencies used in the county can be tied together through a crosspatch (Tab P). The patch should
be requested through the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office.
 The IC will delegate the duties of coordinating communications to the communications officer
within the IC’s department. The EMA director or the IC may request that an individual from the
EMA be sent to the scene to establish a communication link with the EOC. This individual could
also be used to interface with the media on scene, or act as the EMA Field Liaison.
 The IC should periodically give updates to the agencies present at the command post and to the
EOC.
 The backup communication systems are cellular telephone and amateur radio.
Containment and Scene Stabilization Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 Fire departments will contain and stabilize a scene to the level they are trained and equipped. A
listing of training levels and response equipment for all county fire departments is found in Tab L.
 Either law enforcement personnel (preferably those with Awareness Level training) or fire
department personnel shall provide traffic control and access control as directed by the IC.
Assistance in traffic control may be obtained from the EOC.
 In the event of an incident that is beyond the limits of local emergency response personnel, mutual
aid from outside the county may be required. A Hazardous Materials Response Team may be called
in from the Toledo Fire Department. Response agencies in Ottawa County may have to provide
support for the Toledo team or private teams with medical surveillance, scene security, and/or
personnel decontamination. Private Contractors may also be used for scene containment and
stabilization. Only the responsible party should contract with a private environmental cleanup
company. Response agencies in Ottawa County should only request a cleanup company if they are
prepared to pay for them.
 Some facilities within the county have the limited ability to contain and stabilize releases. Materion
and Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station both have Hazardous Materials Response Teams available
that are made up of facility personnel.
Response Personnel Safety Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 It is the responsibility of the IC to protect the health and safety of all emergency response personnel.
The IC shall designate a safety officer for all incidents.
 The safety officer should:
 possess the highest level of hazardous materials training at the incident
 ensure medical surveillance
 assist with establishing the exclusion zone
 establish personal protective equipment requirements in accordance with EPA, OSHA, and
NFPA guidance
 assist with the set up and needs of the decontamination area
 The IC shall coordinate with the assistance of the EOC the arrangement and integration of
additional emergency response personnel. These response personnel shall follow the incident
command system when reporting to the incident.
 The IC and the safety officer shall establish Exclusions Zones (hot zones). Additional assistance in
establishing exclusion zones may be obtained from the EMA. The exclusion zone will be
established in the area where contamination could occur. Access to and egress from the exclusion
zone will be at the same established checkpoint. The decontamination zone (warm zone) will be
used to check all personnel exiting the exclusion zone for contamination and removing that
contamination if necessary or possible.
 EMS personnel with at least awareness level training should be called out for any hazardous
materials incident for possible injuries to responders and to evaluate the physical condition of
responders during the incident.
Victim Treatment and Handling
 The treatment and handling of contaminated victims at hazardous materials incidents is determined
10

by a number of factors including but not limited to the: contaminant(s) of concern, available
response resources, geography/topography/weather conditions in the area, number of victims, extent
of contamination on victims, route(s) of exposure, and medical condition of victims. In many cases
the handling of contaminated victims may be performed as described in the following sections;
however, because each of the above factors may be highly variable, no one response scenario may
be performed in every case. For example, a contaminant that reacts with water and generates heat
or toxic gas may need to follow a different decontamination process than those described below.
The process would be determined by the IC with the advice of the safety officer, decontamination
officer, and haz mat sector officer under guidance provided by medical personnel or toxicologists.
Therefore, there must be a high degree of flexibility available to the IC to modify or change the
following tactics depending on the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The most significant and limiting factors available to determine appropriate victim rescue and
response protocols are the training levels and competencies of the first responders, the medical
condition of the victim(s), and the available resources (i.e. PPE). There are three potential
situations involving victims that would most likely occur at a haz mat incident in Ottawa County:
 First Responders with no training or awareness training only-regardless of victim condition
o If the first responding fire department has no or only awareness level hazardous materials
training, they should immediately withdraw from the area and notify dispatch to have the
nearest available operations level department and mutual aid hazmat respond to their aid.
This should be the case regardless of the medical conditions of the victims.
 First Responders with operations level training and victim(s) capable of walking
o If an operational level fire department is first to respond, every attempt to identify the
contaminant of concern must be made without entering the contaminated area. While
attempting to identify the contaminant of concern, a mutual aid hazmat team should be
dispatched (if not done so previously). In accordance with NFPA 472, operations level
response personnel should set up an emergency decontamination area upwind, uphill, and
up gradient of the incident and exclusion zone (hot zone) (as determined using the
NAERG). Unless the department has decontamination equipment available, a low pressure
(around 30 psi) hose line sprayed as a narrow fog pattern should be made available at the
edge of the contaminated area or fixed on some stationary object in that area. If possible a
confinement barrier (such as a tarp with a hose line encircled on top of it) may be placed
around this area to collect wash runoff. Salvage tarps should then be set up or held up
around the area, such that victim privacy is maintained. Clean blankets should be placed
upwind of the hose lines so that they remain dry. A Public Address system or megaphone
should be made available to the individual who will direct the victims through
decontamination to the cold zone.
o If the victims are capable of walking to the hose line, they should be instructed to remove
their clothing and lay it aside prior to reaching the hose line. They should then be
instructed to thoroughly rinse themselves with water. This may be accomplished by setting
the hose line on top of a ladder such that they can stand under it and use it as a shower.
Response personnel should remain upwind and away from the victim. Following thorough
rinsing, the victim should be given a blanket to wrap around themselves to minimize cross
contamination.
o Concurrently, EMS should be implementing reverse isolation measures on their squad for
potential transport; however, only victims with life-threatening injuries should be
transported, and then only after it is fairly certain that cross-contamination concerns have
been eliminated. EMTs trained to the technician level should provide treatment and
transport unless it is certain that the patient was completely decontaminated in which case
an awareness level EMT may provide treatment and transport.
o As soon as it is known that victims and hazardous materials are involved, the nearest
hospital capable of receiving the victim should be alerted that an incident has occurred and
they may be receiving a patient(s). As soon as the identity of the contaminants are known,
the hospital should be provided with this information as well. At that time the hospital may
begin research for treatment, which may be communicated back to the responders if
appropriate. Depending on the location of the incident, the extent of decontamination
11

performed, and the chemical/physical properties of the contaminant, the hospital may want
to have the haz mat team or other operations level fire department dispatched to their
location to set up a secondary decontamination corridor outside of the hospital facility.
EMS should be notified where to drop off the patient, in order that a more thorough
decontamination can be performed prior to entry into the hospital. This should be
accomplished with the aid of EMTs trained to the technician level, such that proper
cleaning of wounds and other treatment may be administered during the decontamination
process. It may be possible to set up a decontamination corridor that begins outside the
facility and ends inside. Following patient decontamination, EMS, and the
decontamination team must undergo decontamination themselves.
o By now the patient should be thoroughly decontaminated and the hospital may proceed
with treatment. However, if any question exists about the possibility of cross
contamination, the hospital should initiate isolation procedures, as described in the
Magruder Hospital Plan for Nuclear Emergencies. This plan provides adequate protocols
for hospital personnel to protect themselves including PPE and methods for isolating the
patient from the rest of the Emergency Department. Magruder staff has been trained to
initiate these procedures. These procedures will also be utilized if surgical
decontamination is required.
o Another scenario, prior to patient transport that is foreseeable would be if a hazmat team
could get to the incident and set up a more thorough emergency decontamination corridor.
The composition of this corridor would be determined by the chemical, extent of victim
contamination, medical condition of patient, and weather. Protocols may include physical
removal, dilution, emulsification, and disinfection methods. This option is preferable to
the above procedure because the patient is not transported prior to a thorough
decontamination and the chance of cross contamination is significantly lessened.
Transport and EMTs accompanying the patient to the hospital may be trained to awareness
level, and the hospital need not implement their decontamination plan.
First Responders have operations level training and victim cannot walk
o If an operations level department responds, and the patient is incapable of walking to an
emergency decontamination area, a rescue into the exclusion zone (hot zone) must be
performed. These types of rescues may be performed only by individuals trained to the
technician level or above, and then only provided they have the appropriate PPE and
decontamination equipment. In most cases this will need to be performed by the mutual
aid hazmat with decontamination assistance from an operations level fire department.
o In this scenario, a mutual aid hazmat activation should be done. Appropriate PPE should
be determined and an entry team which includes a technician level EMT should perform
the rescue under the direction of the haz mat sector officer. The rescue may require patient
stabilization within the exclusion zone (hot zone) including partial decontamination,
oxygen administration, back-boarding, and any other activities necessary to stabilize lifethreatening conditions. At this point, airway, breathing, and circulation takes precedence
over decontamination.
o Upon patient stabilization, the haz mat team should have set up (prior to entry) two
decontamination areas: the emergency decontamination corridor and the responder
decontamination corridor. The emergency decontamination corridor should be set up to
accommodate decontamination of the chemical of concern; normally a primary and
secondary decontamination consisting of emulsification methods should be performed.
Depending on the severity of the injuries, the clothes may be completely or partially
removed prior to or after individual decontamination stations. If possible, a technical
decontamination may also be performed in the field following which the patient should be
enveloped with a blanket or some other reverse isolation material.
o The entry rescue team should transfer the patient to the emergency decontamination team
and re-enter to rescue additional victims if necessary. When rescue is completed or the
entry team is ordered to exit, they will proceed to the responder decontamination area
where a wet or dry responder decontamination process will be performed. In either case a
12

secondary decontamination, the extent of which will be determined by the contaminant,
should be performed.
o If a responder becomes contaminated or needs emergency decontamination for any other
reason, the backup entry team should enter the exclusion zone (hot zone), and move the
responder to the emergency decontamination where the emergency decontamination team
will remove the PPE and decontaminate the responder for medical evaluation.
 Magruder and St. Charles are the primary hospitals that will be used by Ottawa County. Both are
capable of handling contaminated individuals, however, every effort to decontaminate patients
should be made prior to transport to one of these facilities.
Personal Protection of Citizens
 Evacuation Procedures Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4,9)
 Either the IC or the county sheriff can implement evacuation procedures.
o Before an evacuation is ordered the following should be considered:
- weather conditions
- plume direction
- hazardous chemical properties and dangers
- amount of time evacuation will take
o The public shall be notified by a combination of the following:
- sirens
- telephone notification system
- fire department and law enforcement going door-to-door
- the Emergency Alert System – activated through the EOC
o The public may be advised to follow protective actions provided in the annual brochure
calendar or in the telephone book:
 A public notification for evacuation should begin within 15 minutes of an evacuation order.
 The public will be advised to use their own transportation (i.e. cars, trucks, campers, etc.) to
evacuate to designated areas. The IC will designate evacuation routes that evacuees will be
assigned to take to reception centers/shelters. Law enforcement will coordinate these routes via
traffic control. They may request assistance from highway departments, fire departments, or
any other available response organization.
 Public transportation systems may be used to move evacuees in some situations. These systems
may include the Ottawa County Transportation Agency or local school system buses.
 Mobility impaired individuals will be moved with specially equipped vehicles (i.e. school
buses, school vans, ambulances, public transportation vehicles, etc.) available through the
EOC. Mobility impaired individuals are on file in the health department. These individuals
should not indicate that they have been notified by displaying the green card from the brochure
calendar.
 Instructions for evacuees may be provided in EAS messages. Some instructions and guidelines
developed by the EMA can be found in the local phone books and the emergency brochure
calendar.
 The local law enforcement will coordinate traffic control and provide security for the
evacuation area at the discretion of the IC.
 The IC in cooperation with the health department, EMA, local officials, and local law
enforcement will take the return of evacuees to their homes under consideration once the
emergency condition is over.
 Evacuees will be instructed at mass care centers on potential health concerns and actions to take
when returning to their homes. Traffic and perimeter control personnel will instruct those
individuals that do not go to a mass care center.
 Sheltering and Mass Care
 The American Red Cross, Toledo Chapter or Ottawa County Office, will be the primary agency
in charge of setting up and running mass care centers. Assistance setting up mass care centers
and in the transportation of people to these centers will be provided by EMA, law enforcement,
fire departments, and others. The IC will determine if the location(s) of the mass care center(s)
is appropriate.
13

When an evacuation is ordered mass care centers may be opened (depending upon the number
of potential evacuees). Each mass care center shall have someone in place to coordinate and
communicate with someone on the scene or at the EOC.
 Evacuees shall be screened for any exposure prior to their admittance to a mass care center if a
release is known to have occurred. The health department should provide staff to perform this
screening if the American Red Cross does not have enough personnel. Medical signs and
symptoms of exposure will be checked for.
 The local hospital, local fire department, or the mutual aid hazmat team will be called to the
mass care facility if needed to decontaminate evacuees exposed to a hazardous substance.
 The American Red Cross can coordinate with other counties if mass care centers are not
available or usable in Ottawa County.
 In-place Sheltering
 In-place sheltering as opposed to evacuation may be used as a protective action in some
situations. In-place sheltering may be used when the outside air is already at a hazardous level
or it will be before an evacuation can be carried out.
 The IC may order in-place sheltering if evacuation is not an option.
 In-place sheltering may be discontinued when it has been determined that a hazardous
substance no longer exists in hazardous concentrations in the area.
 Instructions for sheltering in-place may be provided in Emergency Alert System (EAS)
messages. Some instructions and guidelines developed by the EMA can be found in the local
phone books and the emergency brochure calendar.
 Public Information Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(6)
 The public shall be notified of incidents via any of the following: the EAS, telephone
notification system, door-to-door notification, news releases, press briefings, and/or the sirens.
The IC or his designee shall coordinate the door-to-door notification. The sheriff’s department
will activate the sirens when directed by the IC. The emergency alert system shall be directed
by the IC and activated by the EOC.
 Special populations such as hearing impaired and non-English speaking have been identified
and are on file with the health department. Hearing impaired persons will be notified by doorto-door notification. A special needs list will be provided to the IC when a door-to-door
notification is necessary. Non-English speaking persons will be notified through the liaison,
normally the employer, for each population.
 Nursing homes, schools, and hospitals will be notified by phone or in person by the local law
enforcement, fire department, the EMA or the EOC.
 In a Level I incident the IC may act as the public information officer. The IC may also
coordinate any news releases.
 In a Level II or III incident the public information officer should be a representative from the
EMA. A joint information center may be established in this high level event. Representatives
from the local law enforcement, local fire department, EMA, and the facility or transporter may
be involved in the briefings held at the joint information center.
 The public will be given a rumor control phone number to contact if they have questions. The
hearing impaired will be given an alternate phone number to call (the telecommunications
device for the deaf). These will be located in the EOC.
D. Recovery Methods
 Cleanup and Disposal Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(4)
 The IC will coordinate the cleanup activities with the EMA, the Ohio EPA, and the responsible
party and/or contractor.
 The Ohio EPA or the private contractor cleaning the spill site will test the area of the spill before reentry may begin. The IC in cooperation with local officials will determine when the public will be
allowed to return to the area of the spill.
 The Ohio EPA should also survey the area for the IC. The data received from these agencies will
also be used to determine when and how re-entry will occur.
 Where applicable, the health department will ensure that food and water supplies in the area are safe
for human consumption if necessary.
14




The IC will verify that all equipment used in the response to the incident has been checked for
contamination, and decontaminated before returning it to service. The responsible party shall be
responsible for the cost of decontaminating the equipment.
 The disposal of the spilled product is the responsibility of the responsible party. The IC in
cooperation with the responsible party and the Ohio EPA will ensure that the spilled product is
disposed of in a proper manner. The EMA and/or the EOC may be utilized to coordinate and
schedule the resources for disposal of the spilled product.
Investigative Follow-up
 The investigative follow-up will be coordinated by the local law enforcement agency in cooperation
with the IC, the Ohio EPA, the U.S. Coast Guard (when appropriate) and the EMA.
 The County may take civil/criminal actions against the responsible party through the county
prosecutor’s office.
Documentation and Critique
 Documentation
 For level II and III incidents the IC should complete a report on the incident within 30-days of
the incident. The report should summarize the incident, incident critique, damage assessment,
expenses, and conclusions. The report should be submitted to the EMA. The EMA will then
distribute the report to all agencies that responded to the incident.
 For level II and III incidents the EMA director or his designee will prepare a report of the
actions taken at the EOC if it was activated. This report will be distributed to all agencies that
responded to the incident.
 The responsible party must by law submit a 30-day follow up report for all reportable releases.
 The LEPC will retain all records of the incident (i.e. newspaper articles, EOC forms, IC
reports, etc.).
 Critique
 The LEPC chairman in cooperation with the IC may coordinate a post-incident critique. The
critique will be held to discuss how well the plan worked, what changes could be made,
problems encountered, and things that worked well. The LEPC will take all recommendations
into consideration for the next plan revision.
Cost Recovery
 The IC will arrange for any cost recovery with the responsible party. The LEPC and the EMA shall
assist the IC in arranging for the recovery of expenses incurred. The LEPC and the EMA may use
the county prosecutor’s office to assist with the recovery of any costs for the IC.
 Tab M contains cost recovery forms that the IC may use to document costs associated with the
incident. This tab also contains other information such as cost schedules and responsible party
information forms.
 If the responsible party has not been identified, the IC may follow the provisions of Ohio Revised
Code Chapter 3745.13 to recover costs.
 If all other methods of cost recovery fail, the LEPC may request reimbursement from USEPA under
Superfund (40 CFR 310).
15
III. Plan Maintenance
A. Annual Plan Exercise Ohio Revised Code 3750.04 (A)(12)
 The LEPC will annually exercise this plan. The LEPC will annually form an exercise design team to put
together an exercise satisfying all the objectives that the LEPC has determined will be demonstrated.
This team will write and control the exercise. The LEPC will coordinate with the Ohio EMA and with
the evaluators.
 The LEPC will exercise all the required objectives within a four-year cycle. At least one exercise in the
four-year exercise cycle will be a full-scale exercise (SERC requirement), and at least one exercise will
be a tabletop exercise even though this is not a SERC requirement.
 The exercise design team and the LEPC will use the Ohio Hazardous Materials Exercise Evaluation
Manual and the Ohio Hazardous Materials Planning and Exercise Guidance Manual as reference for the
process of developing exercises.
 When a full-scale exercise is held, a public critique will be held within seven days after the exercise.
 Issues that arise from an exercise shall be taken into consideration during the next plan revision by the
LEPC. Training needs and planning issues will also be updated using the exercise experience.
 Actual incidents may be used for credit for the annual exercise. The LEPC will review documentation
from actual events and decide whether or not to use it for exercise credit. If an actual incident is to be
used the LEPC will begin the process of gaining credit.
 The LEPC will attempt to involve a different fire department in each year’s exercise until all
departments have had the opportunity to participate. Once all have participated the LEPC will begin the
cycle over again. (The cycle will not necessarily be in the same order.)
B. Plan Review and Update
 This plan will be reviewed annually by the LEPC. This plan review will be completed using the Ohio
Hazardous Materials Plan Development and Evaluation Document. The plan will be updated by the
LEPC when there are enough changes to warrant a revision.
 Each holder of this plan should review it and check it for accuracy, especially as it relates to their
agency. Any comments or requests for changes should be sent to:
LEPC Chairman
315 Madison Street
(419) 734-6900
 Tab J is a list of plan holders.
