This training package includes two videos, an instructor’s guide, interactive workshops and seven modules and PowerPoint presentations, each focusing on a specific aspect of ethanol response. Guidelines are also given for fire departments and first responders in communities with ethanol production facilities. The guide is now available at the EERC website.

The EERC was formed to support safety concerns with the transporting and handling of ethanol and ethanol blended fuels. The EERC consists of organizations representing emergency responders and the industry, including the Renewable Fuels Association, the International Association of Fire Chiefs, the International Liquid Terminals Association, Ansul Fire Protection, Industrial Fire World and Williams Fire Hazard Control.
