BOX 5188 <br /> STOCKTON CA 95205 <br /> SUBJECT: RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN <br /> Article 2 of Chapter 6.95 of the California Health and Safety Code was recently revised to meet <br /> Federal Clean Air Act requirements for the preparation of Risk Management Plans. This new,but <br /> similar, federal program replaces the existing State program that required specified businesses to <br /> complete a Risk Management and Prevention Program(RMPP) for specified hazardous materials. <br /> These new federal criteria now require businesses which use extremely hazardous materials as <br /> defined in State or Federal regulations to complete a Federal Risk Management Plan (RMP) or <br /> expand upon a previously completed State of California Risk Management and Prevention <br /> Program (RMPP). <br /> An initial review of our records indicates that your business is required to participate in one of <br /> three Risk Management Plan programs identified in the Clean.Air Act. In order to determine your <br /> exact requirements, a review session must be conducted with our office. This review session will <br /> determine which program your regulated processes must comply with as well as provide initial <br /> compliance assistance. Facility staff familiar with the following information will need to attend <br /> this meeting. <br /> - Equipment Design and Operation <br /> - Training Programs and Administrative Policies <br /> - Characteristics of Business Processes which use Extremely Hazardous Materials <br /> - Preventive Maintenance Policies and Procedures <br /> These staff should bring appropriate site maps, system diagrams and layouts, chemical inventory <br /> information and other relevant documentation to the meeting to ensure a prompt and accurate <br /> assessment. <br /> In order to schedule this required review session, please contact Art Bentley or Mike Parissi at <br /> (209) 468-3969 no later than April 17, 1998. Your cooperation in promptly scheduling a meeting <br /> will help us ensure that you are in compliance with federal law. <br /> SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY OFFICE OF EMERGENCY SERVICES <br />
