Emergency Response Contractors
Emergency Response Contractors and Associations offer a wide range of services to companies or organizations requiring an Emergency Response Assistance Plan (ERAP). The services provided by these contractors or associations may include: guidance and advice, provision of a 24 hours emergency telephone number, development of response plans for the clients, provision of response teams and specialized response equipment necessary to respond to accidents involving dangerous goods, and they may file an Emergency Response Assistance Plan with the Director General on behalf of their clients.
Please note that when resources from a contractor or association are necessary, the person requiring the ERAP must demonstrate a contractual arrangement with the selected contractors or associations before the ERAP is approved. It is also the responsibility of the person requiring the ERAP to verify and ensure that a contractor or association is capable of providing the required response.
