PHMSA has created an app for their Emergency Response Guidebook 2012 (ERG), which can be downloaded from iTunes or Google Plan. Visit PHMSA for more information to download the 2012 ERG Mobile App. The ERG is widely used by emergency responders to quickly locate information about hazardous materials. The 2012 edition includes new evacuation tables for large toxic gas spills, and standard response procedures for gas and liquid pipeline incidents. PHMSA’s website also contains an instructional video at http://www.phmsa.dot.gov/hazmat/library/erg.
