This powerpoint presentation begins by providing historical background information on an environmental management system and the development of
emergency plans at facilities across Ontario, Canada. Subsequently, a corporate level Emergency Plan was developed, followed by business continuity planning, and a
Continuity of Operations Plan. An early lesson learned from testing these plans was that plans just compliment the knowledge
and ability of staff. The presentation lists the Canadian regulatory guidance for
emergency management programs and emergency
plans that include: Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act (Ontario);
Safe Drinking Water Act (Ontario);
Nutrient Management Act (Ontario); and,
Canadian Environmental Protection Act. Six steps are outlined for reviewing your emergency management program that include: establish objectives; build a facility level emergency plan; build a corporate level emergency response
plan; build a corporate level continuity of operations
plan or business continuity plan; build an emergency plan; and, consider the need for an emergency team
and/or emergency equipment.
