We can support your emergency planning and preparedess needs in-line with the Process Safety Leadership Group (PSLG) which placed an obligation on high hazard establishments to comply with their recommendations following the Buncefield incident which included engineering against loss of secondary and tertiary containment whilst recognising that priority should be given to preventing loss of primary containment, that adequate secondary and tertiary containment remains necessary for environmental protection and the safety of people.

The inability to contain fuel and fire water run-off at Buncefield contributed significantly to the failure to prevent a major accident to the environment. Planned and organised emergency response measures are likely to significantly reduce the potential duration and extent of fire scenarios and so reduce firewater volumes requiring containment and management.

In addition, the PSLG Emergency Planning Guidance states that scenario based incident specific emergency response plans can identify incident control resources required for fire and emergency response, whilst providing a tool to exercise against, closing the loop from preparation, to planned and exercised response.

The benefits of being prepared for such consequences:

  • Understand the capability to perform in an emergency.
  • Legislative compliance.
  • Identifies shortfalls.
  • Financial planning.
  • Auditable document trail.
  • Prepared response plans.
  • Increased technical knowledge.
  • Understand firefighting requirements in varying weather conditions.
  • The preventive and protective measures necessary to limit the consequences of fire.
  • Systems and equipment required to detect, suppress and control potential fire-related incidents.
  • The direction and control of equipment and resource required in the function of firefighting and rescue operations.
  • Assess tertiary containment capabilities verses fire water demands to aid the development of an effective fire water management plan.

Integral to this is the practising and testing of all the elements of emergency plans, training staff who are involved in emergency planning and response is fundamental to an organisation’s ability to handle any type of emergency.
