1 .0 OVEAl � � ' � J <br /> A CVS/pharmacy Retail Pharmacy Store (Store) typically generates a relatively small amount of <br /> hazardous waste during normal store operations. This Contingency Plan has been developed <br /> for Stores in keeping with applicable federal and state hazardous waste regulations. This <br /> Contingency Plan provides emergency response procedures to minimize health and <br /> environmental hazards resulting from fire, explosion, or other releases to air, soil, or surface <br /> water related to the storage of hazardous waste consumer products which may occur at a CVS <br /> Store. This Contingency Plan establishes a system of procedures to be used at the Store in <br /> response to an incident involving hazardous waste consumer products. <br /> This Contingency Plan is not a stand-alone document. It is designed to operate in concert with <br /> other emergency preparedness plans and procedures in effect at the Store, specifically <br /> including the Store's Emergency Procedures Plan and Emergency Procedures Plan Summary. <br /> The purpose of the Emergency Procedures Plan is to educate store managers and colleagues <br /> and allow for coordinated actions during a workplace emergency. The Manager-on-Duty is <br /> responsible for the implementation and enforcement of the Emergency Procedures Plan. All <br /> store-specific information must be completed on the Emergency Procedures Plan Summary <br /> for each store and the Summary must be posted in the break room, at out-dialing phones <br /> including near the hazardous waste storage areas and in MinuteClinic locations. Store <br /> colleagues are trained to the Emergency Procedures Plan and Contingency Plan. <br /> CVS has developed this Contingency Plan for stores that have attained Large Quantity <br /> Generator (LQG) status, Small Quantity Generator(SQG) status as required by some states, as <br /> well as other stores at which CVS has elected to implement the Plan. It is intended to provide <br /> additional emergency preparedness and response information that is correlative to the risk <br /> posed by hazardous waste located on-site. <br /> MAY 2016 <br /> REVISION DATE <br /> Page 4 of 2C <br />
