California Accidental Release Prevention (CalARP)
About the CalARP Program
The California Accidental Release Prevention (CalARP) program was implemented on January 1, 1997, and replaces the former California Risk Management and Prevention Program (RMPP). CalARP was adopted from the Federal accidental release program established by the Clean Air Act Section 112 (r) and modified to meet California's needs. The purpose of the CalARP program is to reduce risk and prevent accidental releases of regulated substances that can cause serious harm to the public and the environment through the evaluation of hazards and consequences.
Who is Subject to the CalARP Program?
An owner or operator of a stationary source that handles, manufactures, uses, or stores a Regulated Substances (RS) (as specified in Tables 1-3, CCR, Title 19 Section 5130.6) above a chemical specific Threshold Quantity (TQ). CalARP requires facilities (referred to as “stationary sources”) to take actions to proactively prevent and prepare for accidental releases. Facilities subject to CalARP requirements must submit a Risk Management Plan (RMP).
The CalARP program encompasses both the federal “Risk Management Program,” established in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 68, and the State of California program, in accordance with Title 19 of the California Code of Regulations, Division 2, Chapter 4.5.
