Federal Response Sample Clauses

Federal Response. The U.S. Federal government can provide assistance for hazardous materials incidents if combined local and state capabilities or resources prove insufficient, incapable or inadequate. Once the National Response Center (NRC) has been notified of a release, they alert the Federal On Scene Coordinator (FOSC), who may activate the Regional Response Team (RRT) or the National Response Team (NRT), depending on the severity of the incident. For incidents occurring in the San Luis, Arizona area, the Federal On Scene Coordinator will be from the U.S. EPA Region IX, headquartered in San Francisco, CA. Normally, the U.S. EPA contributes to the response by working with the local, state, tribal and federal agencies and citizens to assure that the information needed to maximize the effectiveness of the response effort is easily accessible. If there is a spill where the Potentially Responsible Party is not identified, or does not contain, clean up the material, or adequately respond to authorities, the federal responsibilities will prevail as outlined in the National Contingency Plan. These responsibilities include assisting state and local responders in the response or, in some circumstances, taking over the response. Federal agreements between the U.S. and Mexico require that each country notify the other of hazardous materials incidents if there is a release or substantial threat of release which may impact both sides of the border.

Federal Response. The U.S. Federal Government can provide assistance for hazardous materials incidents if combined local and state capabilities or resources prove insufficient, incapable, or inadequate. Once the National Response Center (NRC) has been notified of a release, they alert the Federal On-Scene Coordinator (FOSC), who may activate the Regional Response Team (RRT) or the National Response Team (NRT), depending on the severity of the incident. For incidents occurring in the Imperial County area, the FOSC will likely be from the U.S. EPA Region IX field offices in Southern California. U.S. EPA contributes to the response by supporting the local, state, tribal, and federal agencies and citizen’s response actions. If there is a spill in which the responsible party is not identified, or does not contain and clean up the material, or adequately respond, the federal responsibilities will prevail as outlined in the National Contingency Plan. These responsibilities include assisting state and local responders or, in some circumstances, directing response actions. Federal agreements between the United States and Mexico require that each country notify the other if there is a release or substantial threat of a hazardous materials release that may impact the other side of the border. The notification should occur between local authorities and between state authorities on both sides of the border to ensure that the information is properly elevated to the federal levels as required. If it appears that the incident may exceed the capabilities of the local and state resources, the FOSC will request the Joint Response Team (JRT) to implement the Joint Contingency Plan. The Mexican Federal Government can provide assistance through the National Civil Protection System for hazardous materials incidents to Mexicali, Baja California, if the combined responsible party and local capabilities or resources prove to be insufficient or inadequate. Civil Protection will appoint an On-Scene Coordinator (OSC) who will assist the Incident Commander by providing, coordinating, and overseeing needed federal resources.
