 The
Community Awareness and Emergency Response, CAER, organization deals with
safety issues arising in Sarnia, Ontario. This thriving, modern community is
located close to large chemical manufacturing, industrial, and oil refining
industries, presenting a unique public safety challenge. The initials CAER
represent the key components of the CAER initiative to meet this
challenge:
Community Awareness
- is the branch of CAER that keeps the community informed. Communication
is provided around the nature of our local industry and what steps citizens
should take in the event of a natural or industrial emergency. Activities are
coordinated by the Community Awareness Committee, CAC.
Emergency Response - this function drove the formation of CAER,
bringing municipal and industrial emergency responders together to identify
potential risks associated with industrial operations and to develop emergency
plans around them. The Chemical Valley Emergency Coordinating Organization,
CVECO, oversees these activities.
