1 WASHTENAW COUNTY ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE PROCEDURE 9/27/12 PURPOSE This procedure defines the roles and responsibilities of the Washtenaw County Water Resources Commissioner s Office, Washtenaw County Sheriff s Office Emergency Services Division, and Washtenaw County Public Health Department when an environmental incident or hazardous materials accident occurs in the community. EMPLOYEE TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION Under rule 29 CFR established by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, it is the employer's responsibility to certify that employees have met standardized training requirements. This section of the procedure will outline the mandatory requirements that must be met before an employee becomes certified by the county to respond to actual or possible hazardous materials accidents. Employees who are not currently certified by the county shall not respond to the scene to manage or assist other local officials with managing any hazardous materials incidents. This does not apply to employees remote from the scene who provide incident managers with consultation or advice. Once the minimum requirements have been met by the employee (as set forth below), the employee shall submit all appropriate documentation to the Emergency Services Director, who will then consult with the county Risk Management Coordinator to verify that the training meets with OSHA guidelines. If the training meets the standard, county certification will then be granted to the employee and the documentation will be forwarded to the Human Resources Department. For awareness and operations level employees, their course completion certificates and continuing education documentation shall serve as county certification. For county approved technician and specialist employees, County Administration will forward a certificate stating the employees name and level of certification to the employee and copies of the certification will be kept by the Human Resources Department. If disapproved, the employee and the employee's department head will be given a letter stating which areas of training did not qualify under OSHA guidelines, or specifying training needs or base line physical requirements that are to be completed prior to county certification.

DEPARTMENT ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES Sheriff Emergency Services Division All reports of incidents involving any accidental or intentional spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emitting, emptying, discharging, injecting, escaping, leaching, dumping, or disposing of any hazardous, or potentially hazardous unknown substances into the environment shall be screened by the county s Hazardous Materials Emergency Coordinator (Emergency Services Director) or Assistant Hazardous Materials Emergency Coordinator (an Emergency Services Division Coordinator). Callers who report these incidents to county departments other than Washtenaw Metro Dispatch or the Emergency Services Division directly should be immediately referred to Reports of non-hazardous, non-emergent environmental accidents such as non-leaking abandoned drums should be referred to the Emergency Coordinator or designee for further screening. In the case of a center HAZMAT referral or a direct call from witness, the Emergency Coordinator or designee will determine the initial level of response from Washtenaw County departments based on the response guidelines established below.
