The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration has developed a free, mobile web app of its Emergency Response Guidebook 2020 (ERG). The new safety tool provides the nation's emergency responders with fast, easily accessible information to help them manage hazardous material incidents. This software is available from the Apple iTunes store for iPhone, and from the Google Play website for Android.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
PHMSA's Hazardous Materials Safety Assistance Team conducts workshops specialized to meet the needs of industry or the public safety community. These free one-day events are scheduled across the nation to help meet the needs of local communities.
Transportation workshops provide a basic overview of the regulatory requirements - what they are, how they apply, and how to comply with them - for shipping and transporting Hazardous Materials. The workshops address the same information as the Hazmat Basics track given at the Multimodal Seminars and include overviews of the Training and Security Requirements.
Public safety workshops are specifically designed to help emergency responders understand the Hazardous Materials Regulations as set forth in CFR 49. The seminars cover the use of the Emergency Response Guidebook, locating emergency response information, and information that every emergency responder should know in order to safeguard themselves and the public.

As a long time resident of the Jarales/ Pueblitos area I
have attended and participated in all of the meetings held regarding this
issue. Although my property is West of the immediate area to be impacted, what
does take place on either side of the tracks has an effect. In 2017 we had a
major flood in Pueblitos and the only access road into Pueblitos was through
the Jarales juncture. For several weeks the use of the Jarales Road for any
purpose including emergencies was our only option. The time table as well as an
environmental impact statement should have an established timeline. That
timeline should now have projected purchases options for the residents directly
impacted in addition the dates for proposed construction.
Due to the use of the road as a major route for Farming and
Ranching activities it is of the utmost importance that this long over due
project have a defined and expedited proforma.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide input.
