It is not possible to cover every eventuality in the plan and the successful handling of the emergency will depend on appropriate action and decisions being taken on the spot. Other important aspects needing to be considered include the following:

6.3. Emergency

A major emergency in any situation is one, which has the potential to cause serious injury or loss of life, which may cause extensive damage to the structures in the vicinity and environment and could result in serious disruption to normal operation both inside and outside the layout premises. Depending on the magnitude of the emergency, services of the outside agencies may also be required for supplementing the internal effort to effectively handle the emergency and to contain the damage.

The Management has to take effective steps to assess, minimize and wherever feasible eliminate the risks to a large extent. Accidents may still occur and it is necessary to be fully prepared to tackle all such emergencies if and when they occur.

It is likely that the consequences of such emergencies will be confined to the units concerned or may affect outside. If the consequences are confined within the plant boundary, it is then termed as On Site Emergency and will be controlled by Chief Emergency Controller.

In order to generate the plans it is necessary to first determine the kinds of accidents leading to an emergency that can occur in the layout. The most widely used
