Quickly Identify Hazmat Emergency Procedures

PHMSA's 2012 Emergency Response Guidebook provides first responders with a go-to manual to help deal with hazmat accidents during the critical first 30 minutes. DOT's goal is to place an ERG in every emergency service vehicle nationwide. ,

To date, nearly 11 million free copies have been distributed to the emergency response community through state emergency management coordinators. Members of the public may purchase a copy of the ERG through the GPO Bookstore  ,and other commercial suppliers . ,

First responders, we want your feedback! Submit your name, organization, contact information, and comments to ERG2012@dot.gov .
