DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The Tony Mazzocchi Center (TMC) formed by The Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical and Energy Workers International Union (PACE), the United Steelworkers of America (USWA) and the Labor Institute (together representing over 875,000 industrial workers) will conduct over the next 5 years approximately 3,800 workshops reaching 86,000 workers and community residents with 900,000 hours of training to prevent hazardous substance emergencies and to protect workers and communities should such accidents occur. The model training will consist of courses that meet the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.120, address environmental justice and health disparities, and assist worker-trainer development and evaluation. Specific Aims include to, 1) expand model site-based training, called ITS programs, to meld 1910.120-based training into broad, ongoing plant-wide prevention programs. The TMC will add 8 ITS programs per year (total of 40 new sites) to our existing 35 sites resulting in 72 total sites at the end of five years involving an estimated 30,000 workers and managers. In addition, the goals are to, 2) pilot a new Near-miss Initiative working with the Wharton Risk Management and Decision Processes Center of the University of Pennsylvania; 3) conduct community/labor workshops with regional environmental justice networks and Latino workers; 4) expand the use of advanced training technologies including web-based lessons learned, e-learning and emergency response simulation programs; 5) use participatory research and evaluation to monitor and strengthen the program; and 6) lead a multi-grantee (seven unions) initiative to work together on trainer, curriculum and evaluation development. With the HDPTP supplement the TMC will help protect workers and community residents from potential exposures to hazardous materials released during terrorist attacks on industrial facilities with large volumes of highly hazardous chemicals, specifically at the 306 Risk Management Program Sites (RMPs) at which PACE and USWA represent 75,000 workers. The TMC will reach 19,700 participants with 192,360 contact hours of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) prevention, preparedness and response training. The TMC will also recruit and train an entirely new, nation-wide, industrial catastrophic incident Prevention, Preparedness and Response (PPR) Corps composed of 68 experienced workers from RMP sites. The PPR Corps, consisting of credentialed industrial responders, will work with OSHA, and through OSHA, the DHS to assist in OSHA's Regional Emergency Response Plans for high hazard sites. The PPR Corps will train industrial site workers, management and community responders, as well as conduct facility audits to evaluate prevention activities, emergency preparedness, and readiness to create site safety plans in the event of a catastrophe.

描述(由申请人提供) 由造纸业、工业、化学和能源工人国际联盟(PACE)、美国钢铁工人联合会(USWA)和劳工协会(总共代表875,000多名工业工人)组成的Tony Mazzocchi中心(TMC)将在未来5年内举办约3,800个研讨会，为86,000名工人和社区居民提供900,000小时的培训，以防止发生危险物质紧急情况，并在发生此类事故时保护工人和社区。示范培训将包括符合29 CFR 1910.120要求的课程，解决环境正义和健康差距问题，并协助工人培训员的发展和评估。具体目标包括：1)扩大示范现场培训，称为ITS计划，将基于1910.120的培训融合为广泛的、正在进行的全厂预防计划。TMC将在我们现有的35个站点的基础上，每年增加8个ITS项目(总共40个新站点)，在五年结束时产生72个站点，涉及大约30,000名工人和管理人员。此外，其目标是，2)与宾夕法尼亚大学沃顿风险管理和决策流程中心合作，试行一项新的险情倡议；3)与区域环境正义网络和拉丁裔工人一起举办社区/劳工研讨会；4)扩大先进培训技术的使用，包括基于网络的经验教训、电子学习和紧急反应模拟计划；5)使用参与性研究和评估来监测和加强该计划；以及6)领导一个多受资助者(7个工会)计划，在培训器、课程和评估开发方面共同努力。通过HDPTP补充，TMC将帮助保护工人和社区居民，使他们免受恐怖袭击期间释放的危险物质的影响，这些危险物质针对的是含有大量高危险化学品的工业设施，特别是在PACE和USWA代表75,000名工人的306个风险管理计划地点(RMP)。TMC将为19,700名参与者提供192,360个接触小时的大规模毁灭性武器预防、准备和应对培训。TMC还将招募和培训一个全新的、全国性的工业灾难性事件预防、准备和反应(PPR)团队，该团队由68名来自RMP现场的经验丰富的工人组成。由有资质的工业响应人员组成的PPR团队将与OSHA合作，并通过OSHA，国土安全部协助OSHA针对高危险地点的区域应急计划。PPR Corps将培训工业现场工人、管理人员和社区响应人员，并进行设施审计，以评估预防活动、应急准备和在发生灾难时制定现场安全计划的准备情况。
