Explanation
A level 3 incident is considered a major incident that adversely affects the entire plant and may also have an impact on the surrounding community. This implies that the incident is significant and has the potential to cause widespread disruption and harm. It suggests that the incident is not easily resolved and may require extensive resources and outside assistance to mitigate its effects.

Rate this question:
5.

  Tornado
- B.
  
  Fire
- C.
  
  Chemical Spill
- D.
  
  Both B and C
- E.
  
  Only A
Correct Answer
D. Both B and C

Explanation
In both a fire and a chemical spill situation, it is necessary to evacuate the building for the safety of the individuals inside. Fires can spread rapidly and release toxic smoke, while chemical spills can release harmful substances into the air or cause explosions. Evacuating the building in these situations is crucial to prevent injuries or fatalities. Tornadoes, on the other hand, typically require individuals to seek shelter in a safe area within the building rather than evacuating.

  Maintenace

  All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the above

Explanation
In case of an emergency, it is important to contact multiple parties to ensure a swift response. The Plant Manager should be notified as they are responsible for overseeing operations and can initiate emergency protocols. Maintenance personnel should be contacted as they possess the necessary skills to address any technical issues that may have caused the emergency. Calling 911 is crucial as emergency services are trained to handle a wide range of emergencies and can provide immediate assistance. Therefore, all of the above options should be contacted in case of an emergency.

Rate this question:

- A.
  
  Run out of the building
- B.
  
  Shut off all equipment
- C.
  
  Wait for instructions from supervisor.
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
C. Wait for instructions from supervisor.

Explanation
In the event of an external chemical spill, it is important to wait for instructions from a supervisor. Running out of the building may expose you to the chemical or put you in harm's way. Shutting off all equipment can prevent further accidents, but it is best to wait for instructions as the supervisor may have specific protocols to follow in such situations. Therefore, waiting for instructions from a supervisor is the most appropriate action to take.

- C.

- D.
  
  Turn off all equipment
- E.
  
  Both A and D
Correct Answer
E. Both A and D

Explanation
In the event of a power failure, strategically placed lights and exit signs will illuminate for a short period of time to assist with the evacuation. Turning off all equipment is also recommended in order to minimize any potential hazards or damage that may occur when the power is restored. Therefore, both options A and D are correct.

Rate this question:
9.

In the event of a tornado, where should you take shelter?
- A.
  
  Bathrooms/Lockerrooms near the break room
- B.
  
  Under your desk
- C.
  
  Next to the window so you can see when it is over
Correct Answer
A. Bathrooms/Lockerrooms near the break room

Explanation
During a tornado, it is important to take shelter in a secure and enclosed space. Bathrooms and locker rooms near the break room are often considered safe options because they typically have reinforced walls and plumbing fixtures that can provide additional protection. These areas are less likely to have windows, which can shatter during a tornado and cause injuries from flying debris. Taking shelter under a desk or next to a window is not recommended as it does not provide adequate protection from the strong winds and potential hazards associated with a tornado.
