Book Synopsis Standardized Maps for Hazardous Materials Accidents by :
Download or read book Standardized Maps for Hazardous Materials Accidents written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problems reported by emergency response personnel in developing pre-emergency plans and making tactical decisions during hazardous materials transportation emergencies prompted the Safety Board to conduct this special investigation. The investigation disclosed a need to improve methods for predicting the expected behavior of hazardous materials in emergencies, for both preplanning and tactical uses. Existing information sources were found to be inadequate for these purposes. A method to improve the recording of hazardous materials behavior in accident investigations that will improve preplanning and tactical decisionmaking for hazardous materials emergencies was identified and has been adopted as a tentative accident reporting standard by the Safety Board for accidents involving hazardous materials. Immediate and potential uses for the standardized hazardous materials behavior maps are identified and implementation problems are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Transportation Safety Board has investigated many accidents in which persons were killed following the release of hazardous materials from vehicles involved in the accidents. For example, 16 persons died following the rupture of a liquefied petroleum gas tank-semitrailer in a 1975 highway accident near Eagle Pass, Texas. In Youngstown, Florida, eight persons died following the puncture of a rail tank car carrying chlorine during an accident in 1978. In Houston, Texas, five persons were killed and 178 persons were injured by the release of anhydrous ammonia following the crash of a tank-semitrailer in a 1976 highway accident. The Safety Board has previously reported the causes of these accidents. However, the extent of the casualties in these and other accidents following the release of hazardous materials far exceeded the initial crash losses. Improving survivability in such accidents would contribute significantly to reduced hazardous materials transportation risks. Using the 1976 Houston accident as an example, the Safety Board investigated survival actions by the victims to determine what actions they took, why they were taken, and what effects these actions had on the victims' survival. These actions were then analyzed to determine the effectiveness of the U.S. Department of Transportation-mandated safeguards in reducing casualties in hazardous materials accidents.

Book Synopsis Feasibility Study for Highway Hazardous Materials Bulk Package Accident Performance Data Collection by : Philip J. Daum
Download or read book Feasibility Study for Highway Hazardous Materials Bulk Package Accident Performance Data Collection written by Philip J. Daum and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2013 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's Hazardous Materials Cooperative Research Program (HMCRP) Report 10: Feasibility Study for Highway Hazardous Materials Bulk Package Accident Performance Data Collection explores methods to collect and analyze performance data for U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)-specified hazardous materials bulk packages such as portable tanks and cargo tank motor vehicles. The report also identifies and evaluates institutional challenges to data collection, and makes suggestions for overcoming these challenges. In addition, the report offers a methodical approach for developing and implementing a reporting database system to collect and characterize information about damage to U.S. DOT-specified hazardous materials bulk packages involved in accidents, regardless of whether the damage resulted in a leak of contents. Appendices A through G have been published on a CD-ROM, which is bound into this report. Appendix titles are the following: Appendix A: Survey Development and Questions; Appendix B: Conditional Probability of Release as a Function of Data Refinement; Appendix C: Differences Between Highway and Rail Hazardous Material Transportation Affecting Development of a Bulk Package Accident Performance Database; Appendix D: Option Evaluation Tool; Appendix E: Pilot Study Data Collection Tool; Appendix F: Links to Newspaper Articles; Appendix G: An Example of Bulk Package Performance Analysis Using Multivariate Regression. The CD-ROM is also available for download from TRB's website as an ISO image. Links to the ISO image and instructions for burning a CD-ROM from an ISO image are provided below."--Pub. Info.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Observations of emergency response activities following a March 31, 1977, railroad accident near Rockingham, North Carolina, prompted the National Transportation Safety Board to initiate this special investigation of emergency response plans for handling railroad accidents in which hazardous materials, including those classified as radioactive, are involved. While the movement of hazardous materials through normal transportation channels is of concern to Federal, State, and local Government agencies and to the public, the transportation of radioactive materials is of special concern. For this reason, special plans designed to cope with emergencies involving radioactive materials have been developed at various levels of Government and by Private industry. These plans are the most comprehensive yet formulated for handling hazardous materials emergencies, and they have served as models for many nonradiological contingency plans. With the probable increase in the transportation of radioactive and other hazardous materials by rail, the Safety Board believes that all existing emergency response plans need to be critically reviewed to determine their adequacy.
