RISK MANAGEMENT PLAN
RMP*eSUBMIT USER'S MANUAL
-------
RISK MANAGEMENT PLANS
UNDER THE CLEAN AIR ACT
Risk Management Plans (RMPs) must be fully updated and re-submitted at least
once every five years. Most RMPs were submitted by the initial deadline of June
21, 1999, and were updated and re-submitted in 2004, 2009, and 2014, unless
they were updated and re-submitted previously. EPA released RMP*eSubmit to
facilitate secure online RMP resubmissions beginning in calendar year 2009.
WHAT'S NEW?
Since 2009, you have been able to submit your RMPs online via RMP*eSubmit. This software
is on EPA's secure network, the Central Data Exchange (CDX), which manages thousands of data
submissions from states and industry to a variety of EPA programs. Several updates to the
software have occurred since 2009.
Reporting requirements are the same as in 2004. While the format of your reporting changed
in 2009, the 2004 rule changes will remain in effect.
You can access your RMP online anytime. Owners and operators of facilities, and individuals
they designate as Preparers of their RMPs, can access the facility RMP at any time online.
RMP*eSubmit replaced RMP*Submit 2004. EPA no longer supports the RMP*Submit 2004
software.
CBI submissions via RMP*eSubmit beginning January 2013.
NAICS Codes update. The 2012 version of the North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS) codes has been integrated into RMP*eSubmit in March 2014.
NAICS Codes update. The 2017 version of the North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS) codes has been integrated into RMP*eSubmit in March 2019.

CHAPTER 1- GETTING STARTED
Introduction
The RMP*eSubmit Users' Manual provides assistance in preparing and submitting Risk
Management Plans (RMPs). RMP*eSubmit application is a Web-based free tool EPA developed
to facilitate electronic submissions and is designed to significantly reduce errors in submissions
through validations for data elements. If you are unable to submit your RMP electronically,
contact the RMP Reporting Center: 703-227-7650.
RMP*eSubmit allows you to:
• Create a new RMP online (if this is a first-time submission)
• Make corrections to, or perform a complete resubmission of, your RMP
• Identify and correct any validation errors in your RMP prior to submission
• Create CBI-claimed RMP submissions
• View/print a copy of your current RMP
• Submit your RMP online
• Access help screens to assist you in completing your RMP
You must be registered as a Preparer and/or Certifier in the Central Data Exchange (CDX), RMP
Program to use RMP*eSubmit.
Definitions:
Central Data Exchange (CDX) is a secure, online location on EPA's network. CDX
provides standardized and secure information collection services and infrastructure for
EPA program partners. For example, CDX manages several Agency regulatory and
monitoring programs, receiving submissions from facilities.
Certifiers are facility owners or operators who must certify the accuracy and
completeness of the information reported in the RMP. They have signed and submitted
a one-time Electronic Signature Agreement (ESA) to the EPA. The ESA legally binds the
Certifier's electronic submission to their signature. Only Certifiers can submit the RMP.
Preparers have been granted permission by a facility to access the facility's RMP. They
prepare data for a new or updated RMP. CDX notifies the Certifier when the new or
corrected RMP is ready for the Certifier's review and submission. Preparers cannot
certify/submit an RMP.
Before You Start
Are you subject to the RMP reporting requirements? Check the requirements on EPA's RMP
Website or call the appropriate contact on "Where to Go for Help" page at the beginning of this
manual. For updates and resubmissions, check your five-year anniversary date if you already
have an RMP in the system.
1
-------
What is your EPA Facility ID? If you already have an RMP in the system, you have an EPA
Facility ID. It is essential that we match your new RMP to any earlier versions. Your EPA Facility
ID appears in an email sent to the certifier/s after your first-time submission. The EPA Facility ID
has twelve digits. Call the RMP Reporting Center if you need help: 703-227-7650.
What category are your processes in: Program Level 1, 2 or 3? Each process at your facility
having more than a specified amount (threshold quantity) of a covered chemical (regulated
substance) will be in one of these Program Levels. This determines some of your reporting
requirements and governs how you enter the data. More about Program Levels can be found
later in this chapter.
Is your RMP a First-time Submission, a Resubmission, or a Correction?
Definitions:
A First-time Submission means that an RMP has never been submitted for your facility
(by you or any previous owner/operator). This requires that you enter information for
all nine sections of the RMP. Elements for all nine sections are discussed in Chapter 2.
A Resubmission is an update of all nine sections of your RMP. If you are the owner or
operator of an RMP-covered facility, EPA's Chemical Accident Prevention regulations at
40 CFR part 68 require that you fully update and resubmit your RMP at least once every
five years. Resubmitting your RMP will re-set your five-year anniversary date. If you
have previously submitted an RMP, your facility information will be pre-populated in
RMP*eSubmit.
A Correction should be used to report administrative or other changes at your facility
(e.g., changes in emergency contact information, facility address, or change in accident
history). This does not require an update of your entire RMP. Submitting a corrected
RMP does not change your five-year anniversary date. If your facility has not
resubmitted an RMP by its anniversary date, you will not be able to make an RMP
Correction and will be required to resubmit your RMP.
CDX and the Registration Process for RMP*eSubmit
The RMP*eSubmit application allows you to securely submit your RMP over the Internet
through the EPA Central Data Exchange (CDX).
The requirements to submit using RMP*eSubmit are:
1. You must have Internet access
2. The Certifying Official (Certifier) and Preparer must have Central Data Exchange (CDX)
accounts (see the "Registration" section to learn how to obtain those accounts)
3. The Certifier must complete an Electronic Signature Agreement (ESA) to obtain the
Authorization Code (AuthCode) for preparing a submission. The Authorization Code is
necessary to prepare and submit an RMP
4. Preparers must activate their RMP*eSubmit access in CDX using the unique facility
Authorization Code provided to them by the Certifying Official for theirfacility.
2
-------
Getting Started with RMP*eSubmit
To use RMP*eSubmit, the Certifying Official for your facility (typically the facility owner or
operator or a designated senior management official employed by the facility) must first be
registered in CDX. Additionally, the Certifying Official must complete and sign an Electronic
Signature Agreement (ESA) which will be used to verify the identity of the Certifying Official in
the system. The ESA must be mailed to the RMP Reporting Center and approved prior to the
Preparer being able to prepare or the Certifier being able to certify an RMP using
RMP*eSubmit.
Registration for RMP*eSubmit
The registration process for the RMP*eSubmit application is different if you already have a CDX
user account (such as for previously registering to use TRI-MEweb or any other CDX
application) and is based on whether your role is a Certifying Official or a Preparer.
The following will take you step-by-step through the CDX registration process and help you
get started as a Certifier or Preparer.
Registering for CDX User Account
A CDX account is needed to use the RMP*eSubmit application. To register for an account, go to
the CDX website read the Warning Notice and Privacy Policy, then click "Register with CDX."

North American Datum Code of 1927
The North American Datum (NAD) of 1927 uses the Clarke 1866 spheroid to represent the
shape of the earth. The origin of this datum is a point on the earth referred to as MeadesRanch
in Kansas. Many NAD 1927 control points were calculated from observations taken in the
1800s. These calculations were done manually and in sections over many years. Therefore,
errors varied from station to station.
North American Datum Code of 1983
The North American Datum of 1983 is based upon both earth and satellite observations, using
the GRS80 spheroid. The origin for this datum is the earth's center of mass. This affects the
surface location of all longitude-latitude values enough to cause locations of previous control
points in North America to shift, sometimes as much as 500 feet. A 10-year multinational effort
tied together a network of control points for the United States, Canada, Mexico, Greenland,
Central America, and the Caribbean.
Because NAD 1983 is an earth-centered coordinate system, it is compatible with global
positioning system (GPS) data. The raw GPS data is actually reported in the World Geodetic
System 1984 (WGS 1984) coordinate system.
World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS84)
The World Geodetic System of 1984 is the reference frame used by the U.S. Department of
Defense and is defined by the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (formerly the Defense
Mapping Agency). WGS 84 is used by Department of Defense for all its mapping, charting,
surveying, and navigation needs, including its GPS "broadcast" and "precise" orbits. The latest
revision of WGS 84 was in 2004.

1.12 Covered by:
1.12a. OSHA's PSM:
This element refers to OSHA's Process Safety Management (PSM) of Highly Hazardous
Chemicals Standard (29 CFR 1910.110). This data element applies to your facility as a whole and
is not a process-by-process determination. Therefore, if any process at your facility is subject to
the OSHA PSM standard, check this box, even if the PSM process is not covered by the RMP
rule.
NOTE: For further information refer to OSHA's PSM standard website.
1.12b. EPCRA Section 302:
If you have more than a threshold quantity of a substance that is an Extremely Hazardous
Substance (EHS) on site, your facility is subject to EPCRA Section 302 notification requirements
(a one-time notification to the State Emergency Response Commission (SERC) and LEPC that
states your facility has one of the listed EHSs on site). If your facility is subject to those
requirements, check this box, regardless of whether the EHS is covered by the RMP rule or is
held in a process that is below the Section 112(r) threshold quantity. Two quick hints:
34
-------
• If your facility is subject to the RMP rule because you have more than a threshold
quantity of a toxic substance listed under Section 112(r), you are subject to EPCRA
Section 302. Select this data element.
• If your facility is subject to the RMP rule only due to flammable substances, you are
not subject to EPCRA Section 302. Leave this data element blank.
1.12c. CAA Title V:
If your facility has a Title V operating permit, check this box.
1.12d. Air operating permit ID:
If your facility has an air operating permit ID, provide the ID number.
1.13 OSHA star or merit ranking (optional):
Check this box if your facility has received a star or merit ranking under OSHA's Voluntary
Protection Program. Your facility is exempt from audits conducted pursuant to Section
68.220(b)(2) and (7).
1.14 Last safety inspection (by an external agency) date:
Provide the date of the facility's last safety inspection by an external agency.
1.15 Last safety inspection performed by an external agency:
Select the agency (or agencies) that performed the inspection from the drop-down list. Choose
from the following:
• EPA
• Fire department
• Never had one
• OSHA
• State environmental agency
• State occupational safety organization
Specify if "Other" selected:
Provide the name of the external agency if not present in element 1.15. If the last
safety inspection was a joint inspection, enter multiple agencies. If the agency does
not appear on the dropdown list in element 1.15, select the Other option and provide
the name of the agency.
1.16 Will this RMP involve Predictive Filing?
Predictive Filing is an RMP filing option that allows your facility to submit an RMP which
includes regulated substances which may not actually be present at the facility at the time the
RMP is submitted. This option is intended to assist facilities (such as chemical warehouses,
chemical distributors, batch processors, and the like) whose operations involve highly variable
types and quantities of regulated substances, but who can forecast their inventory with some
degree of accuracy. Under 40 CFR Section 68.190, a facility is required to update and resubmit
its RMP no later than the date on which a new regulated substance is first present in a covered
35
-------
process above a threshold quantity. By using Predictive Filing, you will not be required to
update and resubmit your RMP when you receive a new regulated substance if that substance
was included in your latest RMP submission (as long as you receive it in a quantity that does not
trigger a revised offsite consequence analysis as provided in 40 CFR Section 68.36).
If you use Predictive Filing, you should implement your Risk Management Program and prepare
your RMP in exactly the same way as if all of the substances included in the RMP were actually
present. This means that you must meet all rule requirements for each regulated substance for
which you file, whether or not that substance is actually present onsite at the time you submit
your RMP. Depending on the substances for which you file, this may require you to perform
additional worst-case and alternative-case scenarios and to implement additional prevention
program elements.
NOTE: If your facility uses this option, you must still update and resubmit your RMP if
you receive a new regulated substance which was not included in your latest RMP. Your
facility must also continue to comply with the other update requirements stated in 40
CFR 68.190.
If your facility uses Predictive Filing, the RMP database for your facility will indicate that your
facility has filed a predictive RMP. This will indicate that some of the chemicals in your RMP
may not actually be present onsite but will not indicate which specific chemicals are onsite at
any given time. Therefore, you may receive more frequent questions from the public, local
officials, or implementing agencies about your actual chemical inventory. EPA encourages you
to engage in more frequent dialogue with these parties, and in particular with local emergency
planners, emergency responders, and community officials to update them on your current
inventory of regulated substances. Check this box if your RMP involves Predictive Filing. This
information can't be edited for an RMP Correction.

1.17a. Program level:
Enter or edit the program level that corresponds to each process. The rule imposes different
requirements on processes based on the potential for public impacts and the level of effort
needed to prevent accidents. EPA has set three levels of requirements that apply to covered
processes:
Program level 1
Program level 2
Program level 3
(unless eligible for Program 1)
Process has experienced no accident
in past 5 years that resulted in
significant off-site impacts,
No public receptors in worst-case
scenario, and
Emergency response coordinated
with local responders.
Process is not eligible for Program 1
or subject to Program 3.
Process is subject to OSHA PSM, or
process is in NAICS code 32211,
32411, 32511, 32518, 32518, 32519,
325199, 325211, 325311, or 32532.
WARNING! Changing the Program Level will delete other sections in the RMP that depend
on its value. For example, changing the Program Level from 2 to either 1 or 3 will delete the
Section 8 Program corresponding to the Program Level 2 Process, if one exists. Changing
the Program Level from 3 to either 1 or 2 will delete the Section 7 Program corresponding
to the Program Level 3 Process, if one exists.
If you can qualify a process for Program 1, it is in your best interest to do so, even if the
process is already subject to OSHA PSM. For Program 1 processes, the implementing agency
will inspect and enforce only on compliance with the minimal Program 1 requirements. If you
37
-------
assign a process to Program 2 or 3 when it might qualify for Program 1, the implementing
agency will inspect or enforce for compliance with all the requirements of the higher program
levels. If, however, you are already in compliance with the prevention elements of Program 2
or Program 3, you may want to use the RMP to inform the community of your prevention
efforts. The Program Level cannot be edited for an RMP Correction.
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER
In determining program levels for your process(es), keep in mind the following:
1. The program levels apply to individual processes and generally indicate the risk
management measures necessary to comply with this regulation for the process, not
the facility as a whole. The eligibility of one process for a program level does not
influence the eligibility of other covered processes for other program levels.
2. Any process can be eligible for Program 1, even if it is subject to OSHA PSM or is in
one of the NAICS (North American Industry Clarification System) codes subject to
Program 3.
3. Program 2 is the default program level. There are no "standard criteria" for Program
2. Any process that does not meet the eligibility criteria for either Programs 1 or 3 is
subject to the requirements for Program 2.
Refer to Chapter 2 of the General Guidance for Risk Management Programs for more
information on determining the Program levels of your processes. Once you determine
the program level, simply enter 1, 2, or 3 for this data element.
1.17b. NAICS codes:
If you know your facility's NAICS code, enter your NAICS code. To add a NAICS code to your
process, click the "Add NAICS" button, which will take you to the Select NAICS to add screen. To
delete the existing NAICS code, click the "Delete NAICS" button.
1.17c. Che mica jlated substances):
Enter your chemical in this field. For each covered process, provide the names of all regulated
substances held above the threshold. Many regulated substances have synonyms. However,
you must enter the name of the regulated substance as it appears in Section 68.130. If you have
a NFPA-4 flammable mixture containing regulated flammables, you may list it as a "flammable
mixture." List all of the regulated substances contained in the mixture; however, only report
the quantity of the entire mixture, not the individual substances. RMP*eSubmit contains a pick
list of all regulated substances. For an RMP Correction, a chemical cannot be added; only the
Chemical Quantity (in pounds) can be updated.
1.17c.l Chemical name:
The chemical name field cannot be edited.
1,17c.2 CAS number:
The CAS number field cannot be edited.
Chemical type:
The chemical type field cannot be edited.
38
-------
Chemical threshold quantity:
The chemical threshold quantity cannot be edited.
l,17c.3 Chemical quantity (lbs):
For each chemical reported in 1.17 c.l, estimate the maximum quantity (in pounds) held in the
covered process at any one time during the calendar year to two significant digits. For example:
5,333 pounds should be reported as 5,300 pounds
128,000 pounds should be reported as 130,000 pounds
NAICS Code(s)
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) categorizes businesses by fitting
them into descriptive categories that correspond to five-digit or six-digit codes. NAICS codes
replaced SIC codes in 1997. For this data element you should provide the NAICS code that most
closely corresponds to the process; it will not necessarily be the same NAICS code for your
facility as a whole. You may also enter additional NAICS codes if you wish to identify other
aspects of a process not captured by the NAICS codes for the primary activity.
You should determine the NAICS codes for your processes based on your activities on site using
the 2 'rth American Industry Classification System Manual.
Once you have selected the sector that most appropriately reflects the sector for your facility
(Step 1), you must select the subsector, which enables you to select a more specific sector
within your industry (Step 2). Next, you must select the industry group that represents your
facility (Step 3). The last option is to select the NAICS code that reflects your facility (Final Step).
1. The Step 1 - Select Sector drop down list enables you to add the sector of the NAICS
code to Section 1. Processes.
2. The Step 2 - Select Subsector drop down list enables you to add the subsector of the
NAICS code to Section 1. Processes.
3. The Step 3 - Select Industry Group drop down list enables you to add the industry
group of the NAICS code to Section 1. Processes.
4. The Final Step - Select NAICS code drop down list enables you to select your NAICS
code to Section 1. Processes.
Process ID:
The process ID is automatically generated by the RMP*eSubmit system and this information
can't be edited.
Process name:
The process name can't be edited in this section. The process name can be edited in the Section

Section 2. Toxics: Worst-Case
The worst-case release scenario analysis of covered processes is as follows:
Report one worst-case release scenario for each Program 1 process. Program 1 processes must
have no public receptors within the distance to the endpoint in the worst-case analysis.
If your facility has Program 2 or Program 3 processes, report one worst-case release scenario to
represent all Program 2 and Program 3 processes having toxic regulated substances present
above the threshold quantity, and one worst-case release scenario to represent all Program 2
and Program 3 processes having flammable regulated substances present above the threshold
quantity. If you have more than one Program 2 or 3 process, you will report the worst-case
release scenario for the Program 2 or 3 process that would have the greatest potential impact
on the public (i.e., the greatest distance to endpoint). You may also need to submit an
additional worst-case scenario for either hazard class (i.e., toxic or flammable), if a worst-case
release from elsewhere at your facility would potentially affect a different set of public
receptors than those affected by your initial worst-case scenario(s).
You may include one graphic (map or diagram) in electronic format for each release scenario
that you report, but it is not required.
Complete this section for each toxics worst-case scenario you report.
The following is a discussion of each element in Section 2. Toxics: Worst-Case.

2.4 Scenario:
Select one of the following that describes your worst-case release scenario from the drop-down
list:
• Gas Release: A gas release of the substance in a vapor state. If you hold a gas liquified
under refrigeration, report the release as a liquid.
• Liquid Spill and Vaporization: A release of the substance in a liquid state with
subsequent vaporization.
2.5 Quantity released (lbs):
Enter the quantity of toxic chemical you used for your worst-case scenario analysis in pounds in
whole numbers. If you have less than one pound released, round up to one pound. You may
want to clarify this in your Executive Summary.
2.6 Release rate (lbs/minute):
Enter the rate of release to the outside air in pounds per minute in whole numbers. For
example:
4.3 pounds should be reported as... 4 pounds
19 pounds should be reported as... 20 pounds
For detailed information refer to the General Risk Management Program Guidance.
2.7 Release duration (minutes):
Enter the length of time in minutes for the entire quantity from the vessel, pipeline, or other
source to be released to the outside air.
For gases, a gas liquified by pressurization alone, or a gas liquified by refrigeration where the
released refrigerated liquid forms a pool of 1 cm or less in depth, you should assume that the
release duration is 10 minutes.
For a liquid or a gas liquified by refrigeration where the released refrigerated liquid forms a
pool deeper than 1 cm, the release duration should be the time required for a pool formed by
the released substance to completely vaporize.
Although in some cases it may take longer than 60 minutes for the pool to completely volatilize,
most dispersion models use the release rate and calculate the maximum downwind dispersion
distance within 60 minutes. Therefore, you may enter 60 minutes for your duration, even if the
duration from your modeling is longer than 60 minutes. You can also enter the exact duration
from your modeling up to 9999.9 minutes.
45
-------
2.8 Wind speed (meters/second):
If you used the OCA guidance or one of EPA's model program guidance documents, enter or
edit to say 1.5 meters per second. If you modeled your scenario separately, enter or edit the
wind speed used.
2.9 Atmospheric stability class:
If you used EPA's OCA Guidance Reference Tables or Equations or one of EPA's model program
guidance documents, select F stability from the drop-down list. If you modeled yourscenario
separately, select the appropriate stability class used from the drop-down list.
2.10 Topography:
Select whether the local topography is urban or rural from the drop-down list. Urban means
that there are many obstacles in the immediate area; obstacles include buildings or trees. Rural
means that the terrain is generally flat and unobstructed in the immediate area.
2.11 Distance to endpoint (miles):
Enter the distance to the endpoint in miles to two significant digits, using the endpoint
specified for the chemical in 40 CFR Part 68, Appendix A. Convert your modeling results into
miles by dividing the distance in feet by 5280 or yards by 1760. Refer to the following to
determine two significant digits:
0.397 miles should be reported as 0.40 miles
9.345 miles should be reported as 9.3 miles
20.764 miles should be reported as 21.0 miles
2.12 Residential population within distance to endpoint:
Enter the estimated population within the circle with a center at the point of the release and a
radius determined by the distance to the endpoint to two significant digits (e.g., 5,500 people
rather than 5,483). Population estimates include only residential populations.

If your facility has Program 2 or Program 3 processes, report one worst-case release scenario to
represent all Program 2 and Program 3 processes having toxic regulated substances present
above the threshold quantity, and one worst-case release scenario to represent all Program 2
and Program 3 processes having flammable regulated substances present above the threshold
quantity. If you have more than one Program 2 or 3 process, you will report the worst-case
release scenario for the Program 2 or 3 process that would have the greatest potential impact
on the public (i.e., the greatest distance to endpoint). You may also need to submit an
additional worst-case scenario for either hazard class (i.e., toxic or flammable), if a worst-case
release from elsewhere at your facility would potentially affect a different set of public
receptors than those affected by your initial worst-case scenario(s).
Complete this section for each flammable worst-case scenario you report.

4.3 Scenario:
This data element is fixed. By regulation, for flammables, the worst-case assumes an
instantaneous release and a vapor cloud explosion, which is an explosion of a cloud containing
a flammable vapor or gas and air.
4.4 Quantity released (lbs):
Enter the quantity of the flammable substance you used for your worst-case scenario analysis in
pounds to two significant digits. If you have less than one pound released, round up to one
pound. You may want to clarify this in your Executive Summary.
4.5 Endpoint used:
This data element is fixed. Because the scenario is fixed by regulation as vapor cloud explosions,
the endpoint which applies to vapor cloud explosions is fixed at 1 psi overpressure.
4.6 Distance to endpoint (miles):
Enter the distance to the endpoint in miles to two significant digits, using the endpoint specified
for the chemical in 40 CFR part 68, Appendix A. Convert your modeling results into miles by
dividing the distance in feet by 5280 or yards by 1760. Refer to the following to determine two
significant digits:
0.397 miles should be reported as 0.40 miles
9.345 miles should be reported as 9.3 miles
20.764 miles should be reported as 21.0 miles
4.7 Residential population within distance to endpoint:
Estimate the population within the circle with a center at the point of the release and a radius
determined by the distance to the endpoint to two significant digits (e.g., 5,500 people rather
than 5,483). Population estimates include only residential populations.

4.8 Public receptors within distance to endpoint:
Public receptors must be identified within the circle with a center at the point of the release
and a radius determined by the distance to the endpoint. Public receptor means locations
where members of the public may be exposed to toxic concentrations, radiant heat, or
overpressure as a result of the release. Public receptors include locations within the facility's
property boundary to which the public has routine and unrestricted access during or outside
business hours (e.g., a recreation field). Locations inhabited or occupied by the public at any
time without restriction by the source (such as fences or security guards) are public receptors
(see the General Risk Management Program Guidance for more information on identifying
public receptors). You do not need to list specific locations or estimate populations at these
locations. The presence of these receptors may be determined using local street maps.

g. Other model name (specify)
5.3 Scenario:
Select one of the following or enter another scenario in Other:
• Vapor Cloud Explosion: An explosion of a cloud containing a flammable vapor or gas
and air.
• Fireball: The atmospheric burning of a fuel-air cloud in which the energy is mostly
emitted in the form of radiant heat. As the buoyancy forces of the hot gases begin to
dominate, the burning cloud rises and becomes spherical in shape. Fireballs are often
caused by the ignition of a vapor cloud of a flammable substance.
• BLEVE: Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion (BLEVE) is used to describe the sudden
rupture of a vessel/system containing liquified flammable gas under pressure due to
radiant heat flux. The pressure burst and the flashing of the liquid to vapor creates a
blast wall and potential missile damage, and immediate ignition of the expanding fuel-
air mixture leads to an intense combustion creating a fireball.
• Pool Fire: The combustion of material evaporating from a layer of liquid at the base of
the fire.
• Jet Fire: Gas or liquid discharging or venting from a rupture will form a gas jet that
"blows" into the atmosphere in the direction the hole is facing, all the while entraining
and mixing with air. If the jet is flammable and encounters an ignition source, a flame jet
may form.
• Vapor Cloud Fire: A flash fire results from the ignition of a released flammable cloud in
which there is essentially no increase in the combustion rate.
• Other: (specify)

Enter the quantity of the flammable substance you used for your alternative scenario analysis in
pounds to two significant digits. If you have less than 1 pound released, round up to 1 pound.
You may want to clarify that in your Executive Summary.
5.5 Endpoint used:
For vapor cloud explosions, the endpoint is 1 psi overpressure; for a fireball the endpoint is 5
kilowatts per square meter for 40 seconds; for vapor cloud fires or jet fires, a lower
flammability limit (expressed as a percentage) may be listed as specified in NFPA documents or
other generally recognized sources. These are listed in the OCA Guidance. Enter the endpoint
used in the text field.
5.6 Distance to endpoint (miles):
Enter the distance to the endpoint in miles to two significant digits, using the endpoint specified
for the chemical in 40 CFR part 68, Appendix A. Convert your modeling results into miles by
dividing the distance in feet by 5280 or yards by 1760. Refer to the following to determine two
significant digits:
0.397 miles should be reported as 0.40 miles
9.345 miles should be reported as 9.3 miles
20.764 miles should be reported as 21.0 miles

NAICS Code Selection: The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) categorizes
businesses by fitting them into descriptive categories that correspond to five-digit or six-digit
codes. NAICS codes have replaced SIC codes, which you may be familiar with. For this data
element you should provide the NAICS code that most closely corresponds to the process; it will
not necessarily be the same NAICS code for your facility as a whole. You may also enter
additional NAICS codes if you wish to identify other aspects of a process not captured by the
NAICS codes for the primary activity.
You should determine the NAICS codes for your processes based on your activities on site using
the 2017 North American Industry Classification System Manual.
Once you've selected the sector that most appropriately reflects your facility (Step 1), you must
select the sub-sector, which enables you to select a more specific sector within your industry
(Step 2). Next, you must select the industry group that represents your facility (Step 3). The last
option is to select the NAICS code that reflects your facility (Final Step). All steps must be
competed in succession. See below for more information.
Step 1 - Select Sector drop down list enables you to add the sector of the NAICS code to
an accident scenario.
Step 2 - Select Sub-Sector drop down list enables you to add the subsector of the NAICS
code to an accident scenario.
Step 3 - Select Industry Group drop down list enables you to add the industry group of

6.5 Chemicals Involved:
Indicate the regulated substance(s) released. Use the name of the substance as listed in Section
68.130 rather a synonym. If the release was a NFPA-4 flammable mixture containing regulated
flammables, you may list it as a "flammable mixture" and list all of the regulated substances
contained in the mixture. For the quantity released, you only report the quantity of the entire
mixture, not the individual substances. Only report chemicals that are listed substances.
a. Select Chemical: Select chemical from the scrolling list and click the "Continue Add
Chemical" button. Chemicals can be added one at a time.
b. Quantity released (lbs): Provide the chemical quantity for your process chemical in
this field by clicking the "Add Chemical" button. For each chemical reported in
1.17.C.1, report the maximum quantity (in pounds) held in the covered process at
any one time during the calendar year to two significant digits. Forexample:
5,333 pounds should be reported as 5,300 pounds
107,899 pounds should be reported as 110,000 pounds
128,000 pounds should be reported as 130,000 pounds
6.6 Release event:
Indicate which of the following release events best describes your accident. Select at least one
item from the available check boxes.
a. Gas Release: A gas release is a release of the substance in a vapor state. If you hold
a gas liquified under refrigeration, report the release as a liquid spill.
b. Liquid spills/evaporation: A liquid spill/evaporation is a release of the substance in
a liquid state with subsequent vaporization. Fire: A product (e.g., fuel) in a state of
71
-------
combustion.
C. Explosion: A rapid chemical reaction with the production of noise, heat, and
violent expansion of gasses.
d. Uncontrolled/Runaway Reaction: An indication that the release event involved an
uncontrolled or runaway reaction. A release event caused by an uncontrolled
chemical reaction that generates excessive heat, pressure, or harmful reaction
products. Such events may involve highly exothermic chemical reactions, self-
reactive substances (e.g., substances that undergo polymerization), unstable,
explosive, or spontaneously combustible substances, substances that react
strongly with water or other contaminants, oxidizers, peroxide-forming
substances, or other types of chemical reactions that generate harmful products or
byproducts. This category of release event may often occur in conjunction with
one of the previous categories. In such cases, be sure to check this category in
addition to any other applicable release event category (e.g., explosion). The
burning of ordinary flammable substances is not typically included in this category.
6.7 Release source:
Select at least one:
a. Storage Vessel: A storage vessel is a container used only to store or hold (as
opposed to react, mix, or move) a regulated substance. Storage vessels include
transportation containers (e.g., railcars or tank trucks) being used for on-site
storage.
b. Piping: Piping refers to a system of pipes used to carry a fluid orgas.
C. Process Vessel: A process vessel is a container in which regulated substances are
manufactured, reacted, or mixed.
d. Transfer Hose: A transfer hose is a flexible tube used to connect, often temporarily,
two or more vessels.
e. Valve: A valve is a device used to regulate the flow in piping systems or machinery.
Relief valves open to release pressure in vessels.
f. Pump: A pump is a device that raises, transfers, or compresses fluids, or
that attenuates gases by suction, pressure, or both.
g. Joint: The surface at which two or more mechanical components are united.
h. Other (specify):
6.8 Weather conditions at time of event:
This information is important to those concerned with modeling the effects of accidents.
Reliable information from those involved in the incident or from an onsite weather station is
ideal. However, the rule does not require your facility to have an on-site weather station. If
you do not have an on-site weather station, use information from your local weather station,
airport, or other source of meteorological data. Historical wind speed and temperature data
(but not stability data), can be obtained from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) at
828- 271-4800 or via the NCDC Website. NCDC staff can also provide information on the
nearest weather station. To the extent possible, complete the following:
72
-------
a. Wind
i. Wind speed: Wind speed is an estimate of how fast the wind istraveling.
ii. Wind speed units: Indicate the units in which the speed is expressed as miles
per hour, meters per second, or knots.
iii. Wind direction: Wind direction is the direction from which the wind comes. For
example, a wind that blows from east to west would be described as having an
eastern wind direction. Describe wind direction as one of the 16 standard
compass readings [N, S, E, W, NE, SE, NW, SW, NNE, ENE, ESE, SSE, SSW, WSW,
WNW, NNW], using the abbreviation. For example, wind direction must be
reported as S for south, NE for northeast, or SSW forsouth-southwest.
b. Temperature: Enter the ambient temperature at the scene of the accident in
degrees Fahrenheit. If you did not keep a record, you can use the high (fordaytime
releases) or low (nighttime releases) for the day. Local newspapers publish these
data.
C. Atmospheric stability class: Depending on the amount of incoming solar radiation as
well as other factors, the atmosphere may be more or less turbulent at any given
time. Meteorologists have defined six atmospheric stability classes, each
representing a different degree of turbulence in the atmosphere. When moderate to
strong incoming solar radiation heats air near the ground, causing it to rise and
generating large eddies, the atmosphere is considered unstable, or relatively
turbulent. Unstable conditions are associated with stability classes A and B. When
solar radiation is relatively weak, air near the surface has less of a tendency to rise
and less turbulence develops. In this case, the atmosphere is considered stable or
less turbulent with weak winds and the stability class is E or F. Stability classes D and
C represent conditions of more neutral stability, or moderate turbulence. Neutral
conditions are associated with relatively strong wind speeds and moderate solar
radiation. Select either A, B, C, D, E, or F by selecting the appropriate entry from the
drop-down list.

data for accidents that occurred in the past. You must, however, collect these
data during future accident investigations.

On-site impacts:
Complete each of the following regarding on-site effects. Enter a number for each entry; if
there were no impacts, enter 0.
a. Deaths: Enter the number of on-site deaths that are attributable to the accident or
mitigation activities. Onsite deaths include anyone (employees, contractors,
responders, or others), killed by direct exposure to toxic concentrations, radiant
heat, or overpressures from the accidental release or from indirect consequences of
a vapor cloud explosion from an accidental release (e.g., flying glass debris or other
projectiles). If there were no on-site deaths, enter 0. Specify the deaths as:
. Employees or contractors
i. Public responders (example: fire department personnel)
ii. Public (example: visitors)
Injuries: An injury is any effect that results either from direct exposure to toxic
concentrations, radiant heat, or overpressures from the accidental release or from
indirect consequences of a vapor cloud explosion from an accidental release (e.g., a
window shattering after an explosion) and that requires medical treatment or
hospitalization. Medical treatment means treatment, other than first aid,
administered by a physician or registered professional personnel under standing
74
-------
orders from a physician (OSHA Oil Log, 1904.12). Your OSHA occupational injury and
illness log will help complete these items for employees. Enter the appropriate value
for these fields. If there were no on-site injuries, enter 0. Specify the injuriesas:
i. Employees or contractors
ii. Public responders (example: fire department personnel)
iii. Public (example: visitors)
C. Property damage ($): Estimate the value of the equipment or business structures at
your facility that were damaged by the accident or mitigation activities. Record the
value in US dollars. Insurance claims may provide this information. Do not include
any losses that you may have incurred as a result of business interruption. If there
was no onsite property damage or no known damage, enterO.
6.10 Known offsite impacts:
These are impacts you should be aware of (e.g., from media reports) or that were reported
to your facility. You are not required to conduct an additional investigation to determine off-
site impacts. Enter a number for each entry; if there were no impacts, enter 0.
a. Deaths: Enter the number of offsite deaths that are attributable to the accident or
mitigation activities. Offsite deaths include anyone killed by direct exposure to toxic
concentrations, radiant heat, or overpressures from the accidental release or from
indirect consequences of a vapor cloud explosion from an accidental
release (e.g., a window shattering after an explosion). Responders killed while on
site responding to the release are considered on-site deaths and should not be
reported here (See 6.9, On-site Impacts). If there were no known offsite deaths,
enter 0.
b. Hospitalizations: Enter the number of people requiring hospitalization.
Hospitalization means any effect that result either from direct exposure to toxic
concentrations, radiant heat, or overpressures from accidental releases or from
indirect consequences of a vapor cloud explosion from an accidental release (e.g., a
window shattering after an explosion) and that require hospitalization (i.e.,
admittance to the hospital). If there were no known off-site hospitalizations, enterO.
c. Other medical treatments: Enter the number of people requiring medical
treatment. Medical treatment means any effect that result either from direct
exposure to toxic concentrations, radiant heat, or overpressures from accidental
releases or from indirect consequences of a vapor cloud explosion from an
accidental release (e.g., a window shattering after an explosion) and that require
medical treatment. If there was no known medical treatment, enterO.
d. Evacuated: Estimate the number of people who were evacuated to prevent
exposure that might have resulted from the accident. A total count of the number of
people evacuated is preferable to the number of houses evacuated. People who
were ordered to move simply to improve access to the site for emergency vehicles
are not considered to have been evacuated, but people who normally occupy a
building or area and who are prevented from entering or returning (i.e., blockaded)
to prevent potentially harmful exposure should be considered evacuated. If there
75
-------
were no evacuations, enter 0.
e. Sheltered-in-place: Estimate the number of people who sheltered-in-place during
the accident. Sheltering-in-place occurs when the incident commanderorders
residents to remain inside their home or place of work until the emergency has
ended, preventing exposure to the substance. Usually these are associated with an
emergency broadcast or similar method of mass notification by response agencies. If
no one sheltered in place, enter 0.
f. Property damage ($): Estimate the value of the equipment or structures off-site that
were damaged by the accident or mitigation activities. Record the value in U.S.
dollars. Insurance claims may provide this information; any level of off-site property
damage triggers reporting. There is no lower limit below which you would not have
to report. If there was no property damage, enter 0.
g. Environmental damage: Indicate whether any environmental damage occurred and
specify the type. The damage is not limited to environmental receptors listed in the
rule. Any damage to the environment (e.g., dead or injured animals, defoliation, and
water contamination) must be reported. Select all that apply.
1. Fish or animal kills
2. Tree, lawn, shrub, or crop damage
3. Water contamination
4. Soil contamination

necessary steps or by taking the wrong steps.
c. Natural (weather conditions, earthquake): Weather conditions, such as lightning,
hail, ice storms, tornados, hurricanes, floods, high winds, or earthquakes caused
the accident.
d. Unknown.
6.12 Contributing factors:
These are factors that contributed to the accident occurring but were not the initiating event. If
you conducted an investigation of the release, you should have identified factors that led to the
initiating event. Select all that apply.
a. Equipment failure: A device or piece of equipment failed to contain a substance or
did not function as designed, thereby allowing a substance to be released.
b. Human error: A person performed an operation improperly or made a mistake
which resulted in an accident.
C. Improper procedures: The procedure did not reflect the proper method of
operation, omitted steps that affected the accident, or was written in a manner that
allowed for misinterpretation of the instructions.
d. Overpressurization: The process was operated at pressures exceeding the design
working pressure.
e. Upset condition: Release was caused by incorrect process conditions (e.g., increased
temperature or pressure).
f. By-pass condition: The failure occurred in a pipe, channel, or valve that diverts fluid
flow from the main pathway when design process or storage conditions are
exceeded (e.g., overpressure). By-pass conditions may be designed to release the
substance to restore acceptable process or storage conditions and prevent more
severe consequences (e.g., explosion).
g. Maintenance activity/inactivity: The failure occurred because of maintenance
activity or inactivity. An example of maintenance activity is putting the wrong gasket
on a tank fitting. An example of maintenance inactivity is storage racks that
remained unpainted for so long that corrosion caused the metal to fail.
h. Process design failure: The failure resulted from an inherent flaw in the design of
the process (e.g., pressure needed to make product exceeded the design pressure
of the vessel).
i. Unsuitable equipment: The equipment used was incorrect for the process. For
example, the forklift was too large for the corridors.
j. Unusual weather conditions: Weather conditions, such as lightning, hail, ice storms,
tornados, hurricanes, floods, high winds, or earthquakes caused the accident.
k. Management error: The failure occurred due to any management error or
management system error not included in categories a through j. Such factors may
77

include inadequate training, inadequate oversight, inadequate hazard analysis, or
other management-related factors.

employees and contract employees are aware of and practicing correct safety
and administrative procedures.
d. Revised operating procedures: Operating procedures were clarified or changed to
ensure that employees and contract employees are trained on appropriate
operating procedures.
e. New process controls: New process designs and controls were installed tocorrect
problems and prevent recurrence of an accidental release.
78
-------
f. New mitigation systems: New mitigation systems were initiated to limit the severity
of accidental releases.
g. Revised emergency response plan: The emergency response plan was revised.
h. Changed process: Process was altered to reduce the risk (e.g., process chemistry
was changed).
i. Reduced inventory: Inventory was reduced at the facility to reduce the potential
release quantities and the magnitude of the hazard.
j. None: No changes initiated at facility as a result of the accident (i.e., none were
necessary or technically feasible). There may be some accidents that could not have
been prevented because they were caused by events that are too rare to merit
additional steps. For example, if a tornado hit your facility and you are located in an
area where tornados are very rare, it may not be reasonable to design a "tornado-
proof" process even if it is technically feasible.

How Must Prevention Program Data Be Reported?
Prevention program data must be reported on a process-by-process basis. In other words, you
must fill out the prevention program section of the RMP for each Program 2 or Program 3
process you have that is subject to the RMP rule.
How to report the prevention program for a process depends on how many units the process
contains and whether the prevention program applies different safeguards to different units in
the process. The RMP rule broadly defines "process" to include interconnected or co-located
production and storage units. Under the definition, multiple units and, in some cases, whole
sources may be a single "process" for purposes of the RMP rule. For multiple unit processes, EPA
recognizes that prevention program implementation may involve different safeguards for
different units in the process. For example, different production units may have different
operating procedures. At the same time, some safeguards, such as management of change
procedures, may apply to all the units in the process.
If your process consists of two or more units and different safeguards apply to different units
in that process, you can report the prevention program for that process in one of the two
following ways. You must, however, use one of the two ways to report your program.
1. Use the description field in the prevention program to describe in narrative form how
your prevention program is implemented with respect to the different units in the
process. You could start by listing the common prevention program elements you
implement for all of the units (e.g., use of an alarm system or standard management of
change procedures). You would then indicate what additional prevention program
elements you employ for specified units (e.g., use of a dike for certain process units).
80
-------
2. Report your prevention program for the process on a unit-by-unit basis by filling out the
prevention program portion of the RMP for every unit in the process, rather than for
the process as a whole. That way, the differences in the program as it relates to each
unit will be clear from the report. However, as noted above, some aspects of a
prevention program may be common to all units. To complete the prevention program
record for each unit, enter the remaining data which is unique to each.
If your process consists of only one unit, or you apply every element of your prevention
program to all the units in the process, you are not required to complete the description
section of this portion of the RMP or report on a unit-by-unit basis. However, you may use the
description field to elaborate on your prevention program.
Many prevention program data elements ask you to enter the date for the most recent
"review or revision" of a prevention program element required by Part 68. For your first RMP
submission, if you are subject to prevention program requirements only under the RMP rule
(as opposed to other federal or state laws), you should enter the date by which you
completed the prevention program element being addressed. For instance, for data element
number 7.5, "Date of most recent review or revision of operating procedures," you should
enter the date by which you met the operating procedures requirements of Section 68.69(a)
of the RMP rule (if applicable to you). Since this requirement must be met by the time your
first RMP is due, you may enter the date you completed or submitted your first RMP. In the
case of data element number 7.3 ("Date on which safety information was last reviewed or
revised"), you should enter the date you met the requirement of Section 68.65(a) (if
applicable to you), since Section 68.65(a) requires you to meet the requirement before you
conduct the process hazard analysis for the process.
If you are subject to prevention program requirements under other federal or state laws, you
may be in compliance with RMP prevention program requirements as a result of complying
with those other laws. Sources subject to OSHA PSM, for example, may already meet RMP
prevention program requirements for Program 3 processes, since those requirements are
nearly identical to OSHA PSM prevention program requirements. For your first RMP
submission, if you have fulfilled RMP prevention program requirements in complying with
other federal or state laws, you should enter the date you complied with the requirement or
the date you last reviewed or revised the relevant aspect of your program, whichever is later.
For example, OSHA PSM and the RMP rule both require covered sources to compile and
update (under specified circumstances) process safety information. If you previously compiled
the information to comply with OSHA PSM and you have not updated it since, you should
enter the date you compiled it for OSHA in your RMP. If you have updated the information
since compiling it, you should enter the date of the update.
For subsequent RMP submissions, you should enter the date by which you completed any
review or revision of a prevention program element. Several prevention program elements
must be reviewed and, if necessary, revised following a change affecting the process (e.g.,
requirement to update safety information in Section 68.75(d)). Under the compliance audit
requirement of Sections 68.58 or 68.79 of the RMP Program, all prevention program elements
must be reviewed and, if appropriate, revised every three years. When you re-submit your next
RMP (due every 5 years or sooner based on the requirements in Section 68.190), you are
required to fully update and certify all nine sections of the RMP. If, by the time you re-submit,
81
-------
you have reviewed or revised one or more prevention program elements as a result of a change
or an audit, you must enter the date of your review or revision.
The following is a discussion of each element in Section 7. Prevention Program: Program Level 3.
Prevention Program Description:
If different safeguards apply to different units in your process, use this field to explain how the
prevention program for the process relates to the different units in the process. For example:
"This process includes three interconnected production units, A, B, and C, Everything in
this prevention program applies to all three units, with the following exceptions:
• The dates of the PHA, which are 01/02/08, 6/5/07 and 4/3/07 for units A, B, and C,
respectively.
• Production unit A uses only a scrubber as a process control, while units B and C have
relief valves and scrubbers.
• The water curtain indicated as a mitigation measure applies only to production unite."
If you have so many "exceptions" that it gets too complicated to explain as above, but you still
have many common data elements, you can report your prevention program on a unit-by-unit
basis. To complete the prevention program record for each unit, provide the remaining data
that is unique to each.

7.2 Chemicals:
For each prevention program, provide the names of all regulated substances held above the
threshold in the covered units. If you have an NFPA-4 flammable mixture containing regulated
flammables, you may list it as a "flammable mixture." You do not need to list the individual
substances in the flammable mixture.
7.3 Date on which the safety information was last reviewed or revised:
The safety information requirements for Program 3 processes can be found at 40 CFR68.65. For
your first RMP, provide the date by which you complied with the safety information
requirements of Section 68.65(a) (compile safety information) for the process. For subsequent
RMPs, provide the date the safety information was most recently reviewed or revised. Safety
information may be reviewed or revised as a result of, among other things, a change to the
process (see Section 68.75(d)) or a periodic audit of the prevention program (see Section
68.79(a)). If the safety information was not reviewed or revised since the previous RMP was
submitted, re-enter the date provided in the previous Risk Management Plan (RMP).

83
-------
7.4.D. MAJOR HAZARD
DESCRIPTION
1. Toxic release
If an accidental release occurred, a regulated toxic substance could be released.
For listed toxics, a toxic release will always be a major hazard.
2. Fire process
Upsets, leaks, equipment failure, etc., could result in a fire. For listed
flammables, fire will always be a major hazard. Fire may also be a hazard for
some listed toxics and in some processes could cause a toxic release.
3. Explosion
Confined or unconfined vapor cloud explosions. For listed flammables, explosion
will generally be a major hazard. Explosion may also be a hazard for toxics,
especially those handled under extreme conditions.
4. Runaway reaction
An uncontrolled reaction that proceeds at an increasing rate.
5. Polymerization
A chemical reaction that produces the bonding of two or more monomers.
6. Over pressurization
Instantaneous energy release or detonation.
7. Corrosion
Corrosion could lead to destruction of equipment and release of a regulated
substance. Corrosion is likely to be a major hazard for substances identified as
corrosives on MSDSs unless the equipment used limits the hazard.
8. Overfilling
Filling a tank or vessel beyond its maximum safe capacity.
9. Contamination
A release could occur if inappropriate substances are introduced into storage or
process vessels. Contamination may be a major hazard when controlling
inappropriate substances (e.g., H20) is difficult.
10. Equipment failure
Equipment failure is likely to be a major hazard for most processes, because such
failure could lead to a release. Equipment failure includes cracks, weld failures,
disk failures, ruptures, pump/gauge/control system failures, etc.
11. Loss of cooling, heating,
electricity, instrument air
These losses could be major hazards if they could lead to releases. For example,
loss of cooling could lead to an increase in pressure and failure of a vessel or
pipe and a loss of heating or power could lead to unstable processes. These
conditions are less likely to be major hazards for substances handled at
atmospheric temperatures and pressures.
12. Earthquake
Report earthquakes as a major hazard only if they occur or are likely to occur at
your site such that you plan and design for them.
13. Floods (Flood Plain)
Report floods as a major hazard only if they occur or are likely to occur at your
site such that you plan and design for them.
14. Tornadoes
Report tornadoes as a major hazard only if they occur or are likely to occur at
your site such that you plan and design for them.
15. Hurricanes
Report hurricanes as a major hazard only if they occur or are likely to occur at
your site such that you plan and design for them.
16. Other
Specify any other major hazards not listed above.

How Must Prevention Program Data Be Reported?
Prevention program data must be reported on a process-by-process basis. In other words, you
must fill out the prevention program section of the RMP for each Program 2 or Program 3
process you have that is subject to the RMP rule.
How to report the prevention program for a process depends on how many units the process
contains and whether the prevention program applies different safeguards to different units in
the process. The RMP rule broadly defines "process" to include interconnected or co-located
production and storage units. Under the definition, multiple units and, in some cases, whole
sources may be a single "process" for purposes of the RMP rule. For multiple unit processes,
EPA recognizes that prevention program implementation may involve different safeguards for
different units in the process. For example, different production units may have different
operating procedures. At the same time, some safeguards, such as management of change
procedures, may apply to all the units in the process.
If your process consists of two or more units and different safeguards apply to different units in
that process, you can report the prevention program for that process in one of the two
following ways. You must, however, use one of the two ways to report your program.
1. Use the description field in the prevention program to describe in narrative form how your
prevention program is implemented with respect to the different units in the process. You
could start by listing the common prevention program elements you implement for all of
the units (e.g., use of an alarm system or standard management of change procedures).
You would then indicate what additional prevention program elements you employ for
specified units (e.g., use of a dike for certain process units).
2. Report your prevention program for the process on a unit-by-unit basis by filling out the
prevention program portion of the RMP for every unit in the process, rather than for the
process as a whole. That way, the differences in the program as it relates to each unit will
be clear from the report. However, as noted above, some aspects of a prevention program
may be common to all units. To complete the prevention program record for each unit,
92
-------
enter the remaining data which is unique to each.
If your process consists of only one unit, or you apply every element of your prevention
program to all the units in the process, you are not required to complete the description
section of this portion of the RMP or report on a unit-by-unit basis. However, you may use the
description field to elaborate on your prevention program.
Many prevention program data elements ask you to enter the date for the most recent "review
or revision" of a prevention program element required by Part 68. For your first RMP
submission, if you are subject to prevention program requirements only under the RMP rule (as
opposed to other federal or state laws), you should enter the date by which you completed the
prevention program element being addressed. For instance, for data element number 7.5,
"Date of most recent review or revision of operating procedures," you should enter the date by
which you met the operating procedures requirements of Section 68.69(a) of the RMP rule (if
applicable to you). Since this requirement must be met by the time your first RMP is due, you
may enter the date you complete or submit your first RMP. In the case of data element number
7.3 ("Date on which safety information was last reviewed or revised"), you should enter the
date you met the requirement of Section 68.65(a) (if applicable to you), since Section 68.65(a)
requires you to meet the requirement before you conduct the process hazard analysis for the
process.
If you are subject to prevention program requirements under other federal or state laws, you
may be in compliance with RMP prevention program requirements as a result of complying
with the other laws. Sources subject to OSHA PSM, for example, may already meet RMP
prevention program requirements for Program 3 processes, since those requirements are
nearly identical to OSHA PSM prevention program requirements. For your first RMP submission,
if you have fulfilled RMP prevention program requirements in complying with other federal or
state laws, you should enter the date you complied with the requirement or the date you last
reviewed or revised the relevant aspect of your program, whichever is later. For example, OSHA
PSM and the RMP rule both require covered sources to compile and update (under specified
circumstances) process safety information. If you previously compiled the information for
purposes of complying with OSHA PSM and you have not updated it since, you should enter the
date you compiled it for OSHA in your RMP. If you have updated the information since
compiling it, you should enter the date of the update.
For subsequent RMP submissions, you should enter the date by which you completed any
review or revision of a prevention program element. Several prevention program elements
must be reviewed and, if necessary, revised following a change affecting the process (see, e.g.,
requirement to update safety information in Section 68.75(d)). Under the compliance audit
requirement of Sections 68.58 or 68.79 of the RMP Program, all prevention program elements
must be reviewed and, if appropriate, revised every three years. When you re-submit your next
RMP (due every 5 years or sooner based on the requirements in Section 68.190), you are
required to fully update and certify all nine sections of the RMP. If, by the time you re-submit,
93
-------
you have reviewed or revised one or more prevention program elements as a result of a change
or art audit, you must enter the date of your review or revision.
Complete this section for each prevention program you report for a Program 2 process.
Prevention Program Description:
If different safeguards apply to different units in your process, use this field to explain how the
prevention program for the process relates to the different units in the process. For example:
"This process includes three interconnected production units, A, B, and C. Everything in
this prevention program applies to all three units, with the following exceptions:
• The dates of the PHA, which are 01/02/08, 6/5/07 and 4/3/07 for units A, B and C,
respectively.
• Production unit A uses only a scrubber as a process control, while units B and C have
relief valves and scrubbers.
• The water curtain indicated as a mitigation measure applies only to production unite."
If you have so many "exceptions" that it gets too complicated to explain as above, but you still
have many common data elements, you can report your prevention program on a unit-by-unit
basis. To complete the prevention program record for each unit, provide the remaining data
that is unique to each.

Section 9: Emergency Response
The extent to which you need to fill out this portion of the RMP depends on whether your
employees will respond to releases of regulated substances at your facility. Under Section
68.90(b), if your employees will not respond to releases, you are not required to comply with
the requirements for an emergency response program provided you meet the following
criteria:
1. If you hold one or more regulated toxic substances over threshold quantities, your
facility must be included in the community emergency response plan developed
under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA);
2. If you hold only one or more regulated flammable substances over threshold
quantities, you must have coordinated response actions with the local fire
department; and
3. You must have appropriate mechanisms in place to notify emergency responders
when there is a need for a response.
If your employees will respond to releases of regulated substances at your facility, you
are subject to Section 68.95 and must fill out all the data items in this section of the
RMP. If your employees do not respond to releases of regulated substances at your
facility, you need only respond to the first two (9.1 a and 9.1 b) and last three (9.7 a, 9.7
b and 9.8) emergency response data elements.
Complete this section once for all covered processes.
The following is a discussion of each element in Section 9. Emergency Response.

-------
9.1 Written emergency response (ER) plan:
a. Is your facility included in the community emergency response plan?
If your facility is subject to part 68 because it has one or more regulated toxic
substances above threshold quantities, it is probably included in a local emergency
response plan under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act
(EPCRA). Under Section 303 of EPCRA, local emergency planning committees (LEPCs)
must prepare an emergency response plan for facilities in their planning district having
toxic substances listed under EPCRA 302 in excess of the threshold planning quantity
established under that section. Most of the toxic substances listed in Part 68 are also
listed under EPCRA 302, and the EPCRA thresholds for those substances are generally
the same or lower than the Part 68 thresholds for the same substances. Consequently,
Part 68 facilities with toxic substances listed under both EPCRA and Part 68 should be
included in community emergency response plans.
In addition, facilities subject to Part 68 as a result of flammable substances may also be
covered by community emergency response plans, since LEPCs can, and sometimes do,
include other hazardous substances, including flammables, in their plans. If you are not
sure whether your facility is included in your community's local emergency plan, check
with your LEPC.
As noted above, if your employees are not going to respond to releases of regulated
substances at your facility and you have one or more Part 68 regulated toxic substances
over threshold quantities, your facility must be included in the local emergency
response (ER) plan under EPCRA. Click the check box for this question if your facility is
included in the community's emergency response plan.
b. Does your facility have its own written emergency response plan?
Click the check box for this question if you have a response plan (not just an emergency
action plan as required by OSHA under 29 CFR 1910.38).
9.2 Does your facility's ER plan include specific actions to be taken in response to
accidental releases of regulated substances?
These data elements (9.2, 9.3, 9.4) reflect the three mandatory components of the emergency
response plan required under Section 68.95(a)(1). For an emergency response plan to be in
compliance with this requirement, you must be able to answer "yes" to each of these
questions. Click the check box for this question if your facility's ER plan includes specific actions
to be taken in response to accidental releases of regulated substance(s).
9.3 Does your facility's ER plan include procedures for informing the public and local
agencies responding to accidental releases?
Click the check box for this question if your facility's ER plan includes procedures for informing
the public and local agencies responding to accidental releases.
102
-------
9.4 Does your facility's ER plan include information on emergency health care?
Click the check box for this field to respond with "yes" if your ER plan includes information on
emergency health care.
9.5 Date of most recent review or update of your facility's ER plan:
Provide the date on which you most recently reviewed or updated your plan. Section
68.95(a)(4) requires that ER plans be reviewed and updated "as appropriate" to reflect changes
at the facility and to ensure that employees are informed of changes.
9.6 Date of the most recent ER training for your facility's employees:
Provide the date of the most recent emergency response training at your facility. Emergency
response training includes drills involving your personnel with or without outside emergency
response agencies and tabletop exercises of your emergency response plan. Single purpose
drills (e.g., alarm system drills) may be listed, but exercises that test more aspects of the plan
are preferable.
Part 68 does not specify a schedule for conducting employee response training. You should
note, however, that other planning requirements (e.g., HAZWOPER) may establish a more
formal schedule for conducting training (e.g., eight hours of annual refresher training.)
9.7 Local agency with which your facility's ER plan or response actions are
coordinated:
If you have an ER plan, indicate the name and phone number of the agency with whom you
have coordinated your plan. Section 68.95(c) requires that a facility's ER plan be coordinated
with the community emergency response plan under EPCRA for the facility's community. The
LEPC for the facility's community will typically be the agency with which ER plans are
coordinated.
If you do not have an ER plan, indicate the agency with which you have coordinated response
activities. As noted above, section 68.90(b) provides that if you have regulated toxic substances
and your employees will not be responding to releases of those substances, your facility must
be included in the community emergency response plan developed by the LEPC for your
community. If that is the case for your facility, indicate the name and phone number of your
LEPC here. If you have only regulated flammable substances and your employees will not be
responding to releases of those substances, you must have coordinated response actions with
the local fire department. If that is case for your facility, indicate the name and phone number
of your local fire department here.
a. Name of agency:
If you have an ER plan, provide the name of the agency with whom you have
coordinated your plan.
b. Phone number:
If you have an ER plan, provide the phone number of the agency with whom you have
coordinated your plan.
103
-------
9.8 Subject to (select all that apply):
Indicate all of the federal and state emergency response regulations or statutes to which your
facility is subject. Select at least one. All RMP facilities are subject to OSHA emergency planning
requirements at 29 CFR 1910.38 or 29 CFR 1910.120.
a. OSHA Regulations at 29 CFR 1910.38. These are OSHA's Emergency Action Plan
regulations. All RMP facilities are subject to either these OSHA regulations or OSHA
regulations at 29 CFR 1910.120.
b. OSHA Regulations at 29 CFR 1910.120. These are OSHA's Hazardous Waste
Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) Plan regulations. All RMP
facilities are subject to either these OSHA regulations or OSHA regulations at 29 CFR
1910.38.
c. Clean Water Act Regulations at 40 CFR 112. These are EPA's Oil Spill Prevention
Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) regulations under the Clean Water Act.
d. RCRA Regulations at 40 CFR 264, 265, and 279.52. These are EPA's permitting
regulations for solid waste under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA).
e. OPA 90 Regulations at 40 CFR 112, 33 CFR 154, 49 CFR 194, or 30 CFR 254. These
are EPA, U.S. Coast Guard, Department of Transportation, and Department of the
Interior facility response plan regulations under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA
90).
f. State EPCRA Rules or Laws. These are state emergency planning and community
right-to-know (EPCRA) laws. Federal EPCRA does not require facility response plans,
but some state laws may.
g. Other. Specify any other emergency response regulations or laws to which your
facility is subject.

Executive Summary
The Executive Summary must include a brief description of your facility's risk management
program. You determine the length; it may be as short as two or three pages or, if you have
many processes, it may need to be longer. You should view the Executive Summary as an
opportunity to communicate in your own words the nature of the risks posed by your facility to
your community and to explain what you have done to minimize those risks. The summary can
be an excellent vehicle to display the effort and resources your facility has put into its accident
prevention program. Your Executive Summary cannot be claimed as CBI. Do not include any CBI
data in your Executive Summary.

The following is a discussion of each element in the Executive Summary.
The Executive Summary must briefly describe the following elements:
The accidental release prevention and emergency response policies at your facility
Describe your facility's overall approach to chemical safety. You may want to include any
corporate policies (if applicable) and an overview of senior management commitment to safety
and implementation of safe procedures.
Your facility and the regulated substances handled
Provide a description of your facility so that the public has a clear picture of the facility, its
processes, and products. Describe the primary activities at the facility (e.g., manufacturer of
polyethylene, pulp mill, etc.) and the regulated substances used. In addition, you may want to
mention the quantities of these substances handled or stored at your facility.
The general accidental release prevention program and chemical-specific prevention steps
You may wish to mention the rules and regulations with which your facility complies, such as
the OSHA PSM rule. You should also highlight practices that you believe are important to your
prevention program. The steps you list may be either technological (e.g., backup systems) or
procedural/managerial (e.g., improved maintenance or training).
The five-year accident history
Do not present accident history information in table form here; more details will be provided in
the data elements. This should be a written summary; for example,
105
-------
"We have had five accidental releases of chlorine in the past five years; the largest
release was 1,500 pounds. No one offsite was injured, but several houses were
evacuated as a precautionary measure during the October 2005 and May 2006
releases."
The emergency response program
Briefly describe the elements of your response program. These may include coordination with
local emergency responders, training received by personnel, drills conducted by your facility,
and public notification and alert systems, as appropriate.
Planned changes to improve safety
List any upcoming events, such as training, installation of new mitigation or control equipment
or technology, organizational changes, etc., that will improve safety at your facility.
NOTE: A summary of the off-site consequence analysis (OCA) for the worst-case and
alternative release scenarios(s) is no longer required to be included in the Executive
Summary. While the RMP rule originally required that the Executive Summary briefly
describe the OCA for worst-case and alternative release scenario(s), EPA amended the
RMP rule in 2004 to remove this requirement because of security concerns. Your
Executive Summary should not describe nor include information concerning your worst-
case or alternative release scenarios.

CHAPTER 4 - SUBMITTING CONFIDENTIAL BUSINESS
INFORMATION AND PAPER RMPS
Confidential Business Information
On January 6,1999, EPA published a final rule in the Federal Register specifying which RMP
data elements may not be claimed as confidential business information (CBI) and the
procedures that must be followed to claim information as CBI. The regulatory provisions
(Sections 68.151 and 68.152), provide that if you claim any RMP information as CBI, you must
submit to EPA a sanitized RMP, a Substantiation Form (for explaining why you believe the
information meets the criteria for CBI), and an Unsanitized Data Elements Form (on paper only)
(see Appendices C and D for forms). The sanitized (also known as redacted) RMP should not
include any confidential business information. If you must claim any CBI in your RMP, click the
button after the question "Are you claiming Confidential Business Information (CBI) in this
Section?" at the top of each section. Please read the pop-up Warning Message.

WARNING!!
You have chosen to submit Confidential Business Information (CBI).
If this is correct you are required to submit the following with your
RMP:
1) a paper copy of the substantiation for why this data element is CBI;
and
2) a paper copy of the unsanitized version
Claiming CBI does not indicate or imply that all data in this section is
CBI data.
Are you sure want to claim CBI in this section?
IMPORTANT: If you want to claim a field as CBI, you must leave the CBI
field blank.
If you enter data in the CBI field then that field will not be claimed as
CBI and the
data will be reported to EPA as non-CBI data.

CHAPTER 5 - NOTIFYING EPA THAT YOUR FACILITY IS NO
LONGER COVERED BY RMP
How to De-register Your Facility
Changes may occur at your facility that make it no longer subject to the RMP regulations at 40
CFR Part 68 (e.g., you replace the regulated substances in your process with unregulated
substances). If your facility is no longer covered by RMP, you must notify EPA as specified in
Section 68.190(c) (see box below). Note that the regulation uses the term "stationary source"
to refer to a facility.
68.190 Updates
(c) If a stationary source is no longer subject to this part, the owner or operator shall submit
a de-registration to EPA within six months indicating that the stationary source is no longer
covered.
To de-register, submit a letter to the RMP Reporting Center within six months and include the
effective date of the de-registration (the date on which your facility was no longer covered by
part 68). The letter must be signed by the owner or operator and include your RMP ID number
(the 12-digit ID number assigned by EPA).
Use the Risk Management Program De-registration Form (Appendix E) of this manual.
If you de-register your facility and it later again becomes subject to the RMP regulation, you will
resubmit an RMP following the resubmission process. You must use the original EPA Facility ID
number to resubmit. Keep a record of your Facility ID number upon de-registering. If you have
de-registered and do not have your Facility ID number, contact the RMP Reporting Center.
Important Reminder: Remember to include the 12-digit EPA Facility Identification
number (usually beginning with 1000) that was originally assigned to your facility. The
EPA Facility ID was given to you in the notification letter you received from the RMP
Reporting Center regarding the submission status of your RMP.
112
-------
CHAPTER 6 - PROPANE WITHDRAWAL FORM AND REQUEST TO
CONSOLIDATE EPA FACILITY IDS FORM
When to Use these Forms
If you have submitted an RMP and your facility is no longer covered under 40 CFR part 68
because the facility does not have more than a threshold quantity of any regulated substance
listed at 40 CFR 68.130 other than propane (or another listed flammable substance) that is used
on site as fuel or held for sale as fuel at a retail facility (see 40 CFR 68.126), use the Propane
Facility Withdrawal Form, Appendix F.
If your facility has inadvertently been assigned more than one EPA Facility ID number, use the
Request to Consolidate EPA Facility IDs Form, Appendix G, to request the EPA Facility ID
numbers be consolidated into a single ID number. This form can also be used to de-activate
additional/incorrect EPA Facility ID numbers.
