If the risk is imminent, it <br />should be determined whether or not the emergency can be safely isolated <br />to minimize damage to the environment. <br />• Determine the appropriate agencies to call given a particular type of <br />emergency. <br />• When practicable, the SSO may utilize on-site personnel to control the <br />incident. <br />• The Site Superintendent or his designee will be responsible for site personnel <br />safety. Site personnel will communicate any damage and/or injury reports to <br />the SSO and will coordinate all emergency actions directed by the SSO. <br />• Site personnel will be available for inspection of the landfill after an incident <br />occurs. All crew members will be supplied with appropriate personal <br />protective clothing, as required by the SSO, when conducting inspections of <br />the site for possible design failure. All findings will be reported to the SSO <br />for action. <br />• The SSO will immediately begin surveillance in those areas of the facility <br />affected by the incident. In addition, monitoring will be conducted to <br />prevent an incident from affecting other areas of the facility or adjacent <br />properties. <br />• Shut down any control system, such as the gas migration control or treatment <br />systems, that have been damaged during an incident. <br />Forward Landfill FPCPCMP 5-2 <br />J:\Allied\Forward\2005.0051 Partial Closure\Partial Closure Plan\FL-sec 5.doc: 6/9/2005 <br />
