Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " In November 2012, a train derailed in Paulsboro, New Jersey, releasing about 20,000 gallons of vinyl chloride, a hazardous material. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) found, among other issues, that the supplemental information in the train's documents on responding to emergencies involving vinyl chloride was inconsistent with and less protective than emergency response guidance in the ERG. Congress included a provision in statute for GAO to evaluate the differences between the emergency response information carried by trains transporting hazardous materials and the ERG guidance. This report examines (1) what emergency response information is carried on trains by selected railroads transporting hazardous materials and how responders use it, and (2) how selected railroads' supplemental emergency response information compares to information in the ERG. GAO reviewed the ERG and other relevant literature and met with DOT and NTSB officials, among others. GAO interviewed all 7 larger Class I railroads and 11 smaller Class II and III railroads that carried hazardous materials in 2015

This book was released on 2016 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent rail accidents involving hazardous materials, such as crude oil, have raised questions about local emergency responders’ ability to take protective actions in the aftermath of such accidents. Along with FRA, PHMSA is responsible for ensuring the safe transportation of hazardous materials by rail through issuing and enforcing railroad- and shipper-safety regulations. GAO was asked to review efforts that enhance preparedness for hazardous materials rail accidents. This report examines: (1) the factors selected local emergency planners report affect preparedness; (2) the actions selected railroads have taken to support preparedness; and (3) the actions DOT has taken to support emergency planners. GAO recommends that DOT develop a process for regularly collecting information from state emergency-planning agencies about their distribution of railroad-provided hazardous materials shipping information to local emergency planning entities.
