2002 Hazmat and Toxic Chemical Safety Superset: Official Government Reference Guides (NIOSH, EPA, CDC) with Hazardous Materials Medical and Technical … Emergency First Responders (Two CD-ROM Set)

This is a collection of two of our CD-ROMs featuring essential federal guides to handling all types of hazardous materials and toxic chemical accidents and exposures:
Disc One is “2002 Toxic Chemical Profiles – Official Government Reference Documents with Essential Data on over 250 Toxic Substances and Hazardous Materials (Hazmat)” (ISBN 1- 931828-38-5). The federal Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) produces these “toxicological profiles” for hazardous substances. They contain vital information on health effects, exposure routes, interactions with other substances, testing methods, susceptible populations, reducing absorption and toxic effects, and much more.
Disc Two is “21st Century Complete Guide to First Response and Survival in Emergencies and Disasters” (ISBN1-931828-33-4). The Hazardous Materials section of this disc contains many unique documents:
Hazardous Material Guide For First Responders (FEMA); 2000 Emergency Response Guidebook – Guidebook For First Responders During Initial Phase Of Hazardous Materials Incident (DOT); NIOSH Emergency Response Resources; Breathing Apparatus Review; Chemical Accident Contamination Control Army Manual; EPA Hazardous Materials Response Overview; NIOSH Pocket Guide To Chemical Hazards.
The NIOSH Pocket Guide and the 2000 Emergency Response Guidebook are recognized as authoritative sources of critical information. The complete text of the ATSDR profiles, a total of over 38,000 pages, is reproduced along with other essential information from the ATSDR: ToxFAQs – a series of summaries providing a quick and easy to understand guide to frequently asked questions about chemicals from acetone to zinc. Public Health Statements are derived from chapter one of their respective toxicological profiles. Other information concerning the risks of these substances at hazardous waste sites includes the Completed Exposure Pathways (CEPs) and CERCLA Priority List.
This superset makes a superb reference work and provides a great, one-stop source of essential hazmat and toxic chemical information! It is designed to provide a convenient user- friendly general reference work, utilizing the benefits of the Adobe Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed or printed without untold hours of tedious searching and downloading. Vast archives of important government information that might otherwise remain inaccessible are available for instant review.
