Every year, a number of emergency responders are injured, and sometimes killed, while operating at facilities with combustible dusts. When responders have adequate information and training on the explosibility of combustible dust and the conditions present in the facility, incidents are more likely to be handled safely and effectively. Everyone is safer when plant and emergency personnel share information involving combustible dusts, develop safe procedures to handle incidents, and train together. This session provides the framework necessary to gather the appropriate information and translate it into safe operating procedures. Emergency responders include firefighters, fire brigade members, hazardous materials teams, and others who might be called upon when a fire or explosion occurs.
