Download or read book A Medical Monitoring Program for the Marine Hazardous Chemical Worker. Volume 1 written by and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is Volume I of a three-volume report which describes the development of a medical monitoring program for marine personnel who may be potentially exposed to hazardous chemicals during their work. The purpose of the program is to screen for adverse health effects of occupational exposures to noise and toxic chemical substances. A basic medical protocol for periodic screening examinations and a target organ protocol for examinations performed in response to acute overexposure to specific toxic substances are described. A recommended schedule for medical examinations is specified and guidelines for follow ups of abnormal laboratory results are provided. Auxiliary systems to support implementation and application for the medical monitoring system include: 1) A hazardous substance data system for nearly 700 marine hazardous substances, 2) A set of biochemical and medical data sheets for 179 of the more toxic marine hazardous substances, 3) Guidelines for biological monitoring of exposures to 26 marine hazardous substances for which methods are available, 4) Two methods for documentation of potential exposures to marine hazardous chemicals: one which is self-documented, and a second, which employs an indirect method based on cargo manifests and personnel records 5) Guidelines for an industrial hygiene program to complement medical monitoring, and 6) A data management system to provide a record of data and to provide a means of rapid access to data files for specific information and for data summaries.

Download or read book A Marine Hazardous Substances Data System written by R. J. Prevost and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents a data system for maintaining and processing data on hazardous substances in the marine environment. It is the 2nd in a three-volume report which describes a medical monitoring program for marine personnel who may be potentially exposed to hazardous chemicals during their work. A rationale for ranking marine hazardous substances is described and a comprehensive listing of marine hazardous substances, grouped by hazard priority classification is presented. Twenty-two types of information or characteristic data for the hazardous substances are maintained and output can be structured to present data for specified subsets of substances and/or subsets of data types. Types of data maintained in this system include: chemical name; Chemical Hazards Response Information System (CHRIS)Code, time weighted average threshold limit value. short term exposure limit, immediately dangerous to life or health concentration, odor threshold, respiratory hazard index, toxicity priority class code, carcinogenicity reference per ACGIH, NFPA health hazard classification and NAS health hazard rating, Chemical Abstracts Service registry number, DOT emergency response guide number, availability of NIOSH/OHSA occupational health guidelines for chemical hazards, availability of biological monitoring methods, and availability of detector tube. Keywords: Chemical Information systems, Medical computer application, Hazard rating, Chemical data, Health data, and Ocean environments.

Download or read book Emergency Response Guidebook written by U.S. Department of Transportation and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the identification number 60 indicate a toxic substance or a flammable solid, in the molten state at an elevated temperature? Does the identification number 1035 indicate ethane or butane? What is the difference between natural gas transmission pipelines and natural gas distribution pipelines? If you came upon an overturned truck on the highway that was leaking, would you be able to identify if it was hazardous and know what steps to take? Questions like these and more are answered in the Emergency Response Guidebook. Learn how to identify symbols for and vehicles carrying toxic, flammable, explosive, radioactive, or otherwise harmful substances and how to respond once an incident involving those substances has been identified. Always be prepared in situations that are unfamiliar and dangerous and know how to rectify them. Keeping this guide around at all times will ensure that, if you were to come upon a transportation situation involving hazardous substances or dangerous goods, you will be able to help keep others and yourself out of danger. With color-coded pages for quick and easy reference, this is the official manual used by first responders in the United States and Canada for transportation incidents involving dangerous goods or hazardous materials.

Book Synopsis Oil in the Sea III by : National Research Council
Download or read book Oil in the Sea III written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-03-14 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s, experts have recognized that petroleum pollutants were being discharged in marine waters worldwide, from oil spills, vessel operations, and land-based sources. Public attention to oil spills has forced improvements. Still, a considerable amount of oil is discharged yearly into sensitive coastal environments. Oil in the Sea provides the best available estimate of oil pollutant discharge into marine waters, including an evaluation of the methods for assessing petroleum load and a discussion about the concerns these loads represent. Featuring close-up looks at the Exxon Valdez spill and other notable events, the book identifies important research questions and makes recommendations for better analysis ofâ€"and more effective measures againstâ€"pollutant discharge. The book discusses: Inputâ€"where the discharges come from, including the role of two-stroke engines used on recreational craft. Behavior or fateâ€"how oil is affected by processes such as evaporation as it moves through the marine environment. Effectsâ€"what we know about the effects of petroleum hydrocarbons on marine organisms and ecosystems. Providing a needed update on a problem of international importance, this book will be of interest to energy policy makers, industry officials and managers, engineers and researchers, and advocates for the marine environment.
Book Synopsis Marine Anthropogenic Litter by : Melanie Bergmann
Download or read book Marine Anthropogenic Litter written by Melanie Bergmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how man-made litter, primarily plastic, has spread into the remotest parts of the oceans and covers all aspects of this pollution problem from the impacts on wildlife and human health to socio-economic and political issues. Marine litter is a prime threat to marine wildlife, habitats and food webs worldwide. The book illustrates how advanced technologies from deep-sea research, microbiology and mathematic modelling as well as classic beach litter counts by volunteers contributed to the broad awareness of marine litter as a problem of global significance. The authors summarise more than five decades of marine litter research, which receives growing attention after the recent discovery of great oceanic garbage patches and the ubiquity of microscopic plastic particles in marine organisms and habitats. In 16 chapters, authors from all over the world have created a universal view on the diverse field of marine litter pollution, the biological impacts, dedicated research activities, and the various national and international legislative efforts to combat this environmental problem. They recommend future research directions necessary for a comprehensive understanding of this environmental issue and the development of efficient management strategies. This book addresses scientists, and it provides a solid knowledge base for policy makers, NGOs, and the broader public.
