1 POLICY X-X.01 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Hazardous Materials Surveillance Section Personnel Liza Frias, REHS, Director Environmental Health Pending approval Authorized Emergency Vehicle Operation I. PURPOSE The purpose of this policy is to outline who is authorized to operate an Emergency Vehicle and to outline the circumstances for a Code 3 (emergency lights and siren) response. Responding to hazardous materials emergencies is a core function of the Environmental Health Hazardous Materials Emergency Response Team (also referred to as the Health HazMat Team). A tremendous amount of responsibility is given to, and is assumed by, the emergency vehicle operator (EVO) while operating an emergency vehicle when responding to a hazardous materials emergency. When emergency warning lights and siren (Code 3) are used, the EVO must operate the emergency vehicle in the safest and most prudent manner. Safe arrival at the emergency scene shall be, and must always remain, the first priority of the EVO. II. CIRCUMSTANCES FOR CODE 3 RESPONSE 1. The use of Code 3 is reserved for limited circumstances when the EVO has actual knowledge or has been requested by the incident commander to respond immediately due to an imminent threat and a delay in responding to the incident may result in injury, loss of life, significant damage to or destruction of personal or public property, or significant environmental damage. 2. The EVO may respond in Code 3 under the following specific and limited circumstances: a. Responding to an active on-going fire operation involving flammable, combustible or toxic hazardous materials. For example, commercial structure fire at chrome plating shops, chemical polymerization (run-away reaction) at manufacturing facilities or research laboratory accidents involving flammable or toxic substances are hazardous materials emergencies that require the technical expertise of the Health Hazmat Team to assist the incident commander with the fire operation to prevent injuries or loss of life to first responders. b. Response to an explosive device detonation by the Orange County Bomb Squad. Emergency detonation of unstable shock-sensitive materials or degraded military ordinance on public land requires expedited coordination between the Bomb Squad and the Health Hazmat Team to prevent injuries or loss of life.

2 c. Response to a chemical, biological and/or radiological terrorism involving a significant injury or loss of life. (Significant injury means any injury that may result in permanent disfigurement or loss of limbs.) For example, incidents involving chemical warfare agents, bio-terrorism agents, and radiological with improvised explosive device are hazardous materials emergencies that require immediate response. d. Response to an evacuation of mass-gathering sites involving hazardous materials. Massgathering sites may include airports, fairgrounds, educational institutes, universities, government facilities and amusement parks. A delay in response to provide technical expertise to assist the incident commander may result in large number of casualties, significant injuries or loss of life. III. PROCEDURES OPERATING EMERGENCY VEHICLE 1. Responding in Code 3 Although the California Vehicle Code (VEH) exempts EVOs from compliance with certain provisions, this policy restricts and dictates the specific manner the EVO shall operate an emergency vehicle in Code 3. The EVO must understand that Code 3 warning devices only request the right-of-way; they DO NOT ensure the right-of-way. a. The EVO shall NOT, under any circumstances, operate the emergency vehicle in the opposite direction lane of traffic. If the path of travel is congested or blocked, the EVO shall find an alternate route such as parallel streets to get around the congested traffic conditions or wait until other vehicles yield the right-of-way to the emergency vehicle. b. The EVO shall NOT, under any circumstances, swerve in and out of traffic. c. The EVO may use the shoulder of the freeway when the speed of traffic has slowed to 10 mph or below. While on the shoulder, the EVO shall NOT operate the emergency vehicle above 5 mph of the flow of traffic. d. While on the freeway, the EVO shall make every attempt to drive in the number one far left lane. The emergency vehicle should stay in that lane until required to exit the freeway. e. Emergency lights are NOT authorized for non-emergency situations or routine inspections. 2. Maximum Speed When responding to an incident (emergency and non-emergency), the EVO shall operate the emergency vehicle at the flow of traffic or as close to the posted speed limit as conditions permitting. Examples of conditions requiring slower speed include but are not limited to: a. Slippery road conditions b. Inclement weather c. Poor visibility d. Heavy or congested traffic conditions e. Sharp curves 3. Right-of-Way The EVO shall operate the emergency vehicle in a manner to provide the maximum level of safety for both the passengers and the general public. The EVO shall NOT, under any circumstances force the right of way when the other vehicle operators fail to yield the right-of- Page 2 of 8
3 way to an emergency vehicle. The EVO does NOT have the right-of-way until the other vehicle operators have yielded to the emergency vehicle. 4. Intersections Intersections are sites where a large percentage of major vehicular accidents occur. Therefore, the EVO shall take extreme caution when approaching and traveling through any intersection at all times. At any intersections whether there is a control device (stop sign, yield, or traffic signal) or not in the direction of travel, the EVO shall do the following to ensure the maximum level of safety: Do not rely solely on the control devices or emergency warning devices to clear traffic. Slow down; the EVO must be off the accelerator (gas) pedal and cover the brake pedal. Scan the intersection for possible hazards (pedestrians, right turns on red, fast moving vehicles, bicyclists, etc.) Observe traffic in all 4 directions (left, right, front, rear). When responding in Code 3, change the siren cadence when the emergency vehicle is at least 200 feet from the intersection. Scan the intersection for possible passing options (pass on right, left, wait, etc.), and avoid using the opposing lane of traffic if at all possible. Attempt to establish eye contact with other vehicle drivers; confirm all other vehicles have yield and stopped. The EVO shall always be prepared to stop. 5. Seat Belt The EVO shall wear vehicle seat belt whenever the vehicle is in motion. The EVO shall verify all passengers are properly seated and secured in seat belts before the vehicle is placed in motion. 6. Cell Phone Use While VEH 23123(c) and (d) exempts an emergency services professional from using a wireless telephone while operating an authorized emergency vehicle, this section does not apply to the EVOs who are subject to this policy. By this policy, the EVO shall follow VEH 23123(a) and not drive the emergency vehicle while using a wireless telephone unless that telephone is specifically designed and configured to allow hands-free listening and talking, and is used in that manner while driving. While VEH (e) exempts an emergency services professional from using an electronic wireless communications device while operating an authorized emergency vehicle, this section does not apply to the EVOs who are subject to this policy. By this policy, the EVO shall follow VEH (a) and not drive the emergency vehicle while using an electronic wireless communications device to write, send, or read a text-based communication, unless the electronic wireless communications device is specifically designed and configured to allow voice-operated and hands-free operation to dictate, send, or listen to a text-based communication, and it is used in that manner while driving.

4 7. Valid Vehicle Driver s License All County employees who operate a motor vehicle while in the course and scope of conducting County business shall maintain a valid California driver s license. The EVO shall participate in the State of California Department of Motor Vehicles Employee Pull Notice Program authorizing the release of driver record information to the County of Orange. 8. Vehicle Accidents Vehicle accidents involving Health Care Agency (HCA) employees on County business and while operating either a County or privately owned vehicle must be reported to HCA Management and the HCA Safety Program. The Vehicle Collision/Incident Report Form shall be completed and forwarded to the CEO/Risk Management Safety and Loss Prevention Office and the HCA Safety Program within three (3) business days of the incident. The EVO shall follow the HCA Administrative Policies & Procedures Manual In addition, the Environmental Health Safety Committee will review emergency vehicle accidents and take the corrective actions as necessary. IV. EMERGENCY VEHICLE OPERATION TRAINING 1. All EVOs shall receive and complete the Emergency Vehicle Operations Training at an approved Emergency Vehicle Operations Center (EVOC) prior to operating the emergency vehicle in Code 3. The EVOC will provide training on the following topics: a. Legal Aspects b. Emergency Driving c. Non-emergency Driving d. Occupant Restraint System e. Driving Environment f. Acceleration and Deceleration g. Steering and Cornering Skills h. Skid Avoidance and Control i. Collision Avoidance j. Accident Survival k. Backing l. Braking 2. Refresher of Emergency Vehicle Operation Training shall be conducted every 2 years at an approved EVOC. V.
