EMERGENCY MEASURES 5.1 GENERAL A chlorine emergency may occur during manufacture, use, or transportation. Trained employees, along with a comprehensive, written emergency response plan are necessary to mitigate the consequences of the emergency. Regular drills and reviews of emergency response plans with all involved organizations are encouraged. See CI Pamphlet 64 (11.1). Federal, state and provincial regulations, as well as various local fire and building codes, regulate chemical emergency preparedness and response. All persons responsible for the handling of chlorine must be familiar with those requirements. Regulatory requirements deal generally with preparation and response to chemical and other emergencies. See CI Pamphlet 64 (11.1). Help is also available from CHLOREP (see Sections 5.5.1 to 5.5.3) which can be accessed through CHEMTREC (U.S.). In Canada, CANUTEC may provide advice, as well as contact information for the appropriate CHLOREP Team. 5.2 RESPONSE TO A CHLORINE RELEASE As soon as there is any indication of a chlorine release, immediate steps must be taken to correct the condition. Chlorine leaks always get worse if they are not promptly corrected. When a chlorine leak occurs, authorized, trained personnel equipped with respiratory and appropriate other PPE should investigate and take proper action. Personnel should not enter into atmospheres containing concentrations of chlorine in excess of the IDLH Concentration of 10 ppm without appropriate personal protective equipment and backup personnel.PDF Image | Chlorine Basics 8
