Handbook of Chemical Hazard Analysis Procecures
Washington, DC: GPO, 1989. Approx. 450, wraps, 3-hole punched, illus., references, tables, figures, covers somewhat worn/soiled, name inked out on front cover. This Handbook has several objectives, one of which is to expand the National Response Team's Hazardous Materials Emergency Planning Guide (NRT-1) and the Technical Guidance on Hazards Analysis by including information for explosive, flammable, reactive, and otherwise dangerous chemicals. Beyond providing additional methodologies for assesing the potential impacts of hazard material releases, this handbook also expands the three-step hazard analysis approach (hazard identification, vulnerability analysis, and risk analysis) presented in NRT-1 and its supplement by introducing a four-step approach involving hazard identification, consequence analysis, probability analysis, and risk analysis. This is one of the foundational handbooks that has impacted the domestic security approach to the war on terror. Condition: good.
