7. MOST PROBABLE TYPES OF EMERGENCY.

At TPP & WHRB, JKLC site the most probable hazardous conditions those might generate an
emergency situation are as follows.
 OHS/FT39
Emergency Rescue Plan

 Medical Emergencies.
 Major Fire hazards.
 Natural disaster like Earth quake & cyclone.
 Boiler drum burst.
 Leakage of Chemical.

8. ACTION DURING EMERGENCY.

8.1 MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR PERSONNEL INJURY:

A medical emergency may appear at site due to several reasons like

 Fall from height.

 Electric shock & Burn.
 Snake bite/Insects bite.

Snake Bite
Bite from a venomous snake, including rattlesnake, copperhead, water moccasin or coral snake. Bites on
the extremities are most common, but bites on the head and trunk are most dangerous. They are likely to
happen to person working in mines / plant.

Causes
Bites from venomous snakes are most likely to occur during outdoor activities in warm months in areas
where venomous snakes are abundant.

First aid

Reassure the victim

Calm the victim down. Un-necessary panic will only raise the pulse rate and blood pressure and moves the
venom into the system faster. Tell the victim that 70% of snakebites are from non-poisonous species. Of
the remaining 30%, only half will actually involve injecting venom. The chances are they are OK.

Immobilize the bitten limb without compression.

 OHS/FT39
Emergency Rescue Plan

If the bite is on a hand or arm place it in a sling bandage or use a piece of cloth to support the arm. In the
case of a leg bite, use a splint to support both legs and bandage them together. Clean the wound and apply
a tighter bandage just above the bite, we are only trying to Immobilize not apply any pressure.

Get the patient to Hospital as fast as safely possible.

Don’t waste time, seeking traditional remedies or applying any drugs or chemicals to the victim. Science
has shown that traditional remedies do not work and simply waste valuable time. Snakestones do not
absorb venom and many herbal remedies make the situation worse. Keep the patient as immobile as
possible.

Tell the Doctor any of the following signs appearing on the way to the
hospital.
The Doctor will want to know if any of the following signs or symptoms are noticeable on the journey to the
hospital:

 Difficulty breathing. If the patient stops breathing, give artificial respiration. In Cobra and Krait bites
this will save the victims life.
 Drooping eyelids
 Bleeding from the gums or any unusual bruising appearing.
 Increases in any swelling. Carry a pen and mark the limit of the swelling every 10 minutes or so
 Drowsiness
 Difficulty speaking
 Bleeding from the wound that does not seem to stop

Emergency Rescue Plan

Based on the preliminary identification, the major hazardous installation at Power plant are storage of
capacity 25 KL and sodium hypo chloride 1000 Ltr. are the secondary fuels for combustion support at low
load and for Start-up. Following are the important considerations for loading/unloading of hazardous
chemicals.

loading/unloading operations.

2. A responsible person normally a section supervisor on site will check that the quantity and type of fuel oil
being transferred is suitable for the receiving tanks. Tanks will be checked to see how full they are before
filling, and also during filling using the contents gauge. The maximum level device will be used to ensure
overfilling does not occur.

3. The point of transfer, where connections and disconnection are made will be sited in a well-ventilated
position.

4. Flexible hoses used for conveying fuel oil to and from truck into fixed vessels will:-

Have a means of identification. Be examined for kinks and wear on every occasion prior to use. Hose
fittings will be similarly examined, periodically checked for electrical continuity and written records of the
tests should be maintained. Properly used so that the hose will not be physically damaged or adversely
affected by the weather when not in use or when being conveyed. Loading hoses should be earth and
should also be bonded with the wagon. Replaced or repaired when damaged or worn-out. Properly used so
that the hose will not be physically damaged or adversely affected by the weather when not in use or when
being conveyed.
