  31. Emergency Response Team • Name and responsibility of the emergency response coordinator and team • Communication with authority

  32. Emergency Response Team • Evacuation Procedure of employees and personnel • Protective and Emergency Response Equipment • Emergency Transport Procedure • Temporary Closure • Training program for personnel on site

  33. Personnel Training • waste identification (types and characteristics) • potential hazards of the wastes • proper labeling and storage of hazardous • roles and responsibilities for implementing the emergency contingency plan • proper use of emergency equipment • first aid and safety procedures • laws and regulations concerning hazardous waste management

  34. Waste Transporters • Allowed to transport the type of waste indicated in their registration. • Should receive waste from generators only if they have the Proper Manifest Formand Spill Response Plan. • Should receive hazardous waste properly labeled and packaged and deliver the waste to recognized treaters. • Avoid densely populated areas, watershedor catchmentareas, and other environmentally sensitive areas. • Shall have warning signs and markings regarding shipment of hazardous goods

  35. Waste Transporters • If the waste cannot be delivered to the destination, the transporter must inform the waste generator • Ensure that hazardous waste of different sub-category or different waste generator should not be mixedduring the transport, transshipment, and/or storageof the waste. • In case of spills or accidents, the transporter shall immediately notify the DENRthrough the EMBRegional Office Region. The waste transporter must file within ten (10) days a detailed report describing the accident, spill, and containment or cleanup measures taken.

  36. Waste Transporters • Clean up the spill according to Spill Response Plan. • May store the hazardous waste for a period not exceeding 30 days. • An Affidavit of Undertakingshould be submitted to the EMB regional offices.

  37. Hazardous Waste Storage Facility • Accessible in case of emergency • Enclosed and adequately ventilated • Floors should be resistant to liquids and chemicals; it should not be slippery and should be able to retain spills. • Properly secured • Drums should be stacked vertically and not more than 4 drums high. • Containers should be regularly checked for leakage • Segregation of wastes

  38. Type of Container • metal drum with lid • plastic container • metal container • cloth container • container van • tanker truck • built tank • containment building/warehouse • settling ponds (not used as treatment of wastewater)

  39. Labelling • minimum 20cm x 30cm. • Yellow for background and Black for letters. • The material of the label should be scratch proof and resistant to tampering and weathering. • Accompanied by a symbol corresponding to characteristics of the hazardous waste.
