0 <br />In the event of a fire, hazardous material spill, or an earthquake... <br />Follow these steps immediately! <br />1. Turn off the pumps by pressing the "stop button" on the attendant's console. Should the flow of <br />hydrocarbons continue, or you cannot use the console, tum off the emergency shutoff switch on the <br />electrical panel. <br />2. Announce over the public address system: <br />"There is a (fire) (dangerous spill) in the facility. Please turn off your engines and leave the <br />station on foot... immediately!" <br />If you do not have a public address system at your store, yell the above statement. <br />3. Call help by dialing 9-1-1 and giving the following information: <br />"There is a (fire) (dangerous spill) at Beacon Station #3698 located at 153 East 11th Street, <br />Tracy." <br />If anyone is trapped or needs attention, tell the answering dispatcher. Stay on the phone and be <br />prepared to answer questions about the situation. <br />If the facility phone is not accessible, use the nearest public phone. <br />4. Look around to insure that all employees and customers have left the facility, particularly those in <br />vehicles who made need assistance or did not hear the announcement. Assist or direct assistance to <br />any customer having difficulty leaving the station area. <br />5. Secure the area to prevent any unnecessary vehicle entry. <br />6. Attend to the injured and direct medical response to them. <br />7. Attempt to extinguish any fire if you can do so safely. If the fire is small, the fire extinguisher should <br />be used to extinguish it. If the fire is large or spreading, or you determine that there is a potential <br />danger of explosion or personal injury, do not attempt to put out the fire with the fire extinguisher. If <br />a fire or explosion requires you to evacuate the facility, lock the cash drawer and leave the facility. <br />8. Attempt to contain any hazardous material spill utilizing an absorbent material. <br />9. Report to arriving emergency response personnel to provide them any information or assistance they <br />may require. <br />10. Remain calm. <br />(earthquake information on the next page) <br />In The Event of a Large Earthquake <br />HMBP3698 <br />
