               Act (hereinafter referred to as "SARA") of 1986, that all emergency response forces
               be provided with information pertaining to the possible hazards to which they may

               In accordance with SARA, owners/operators using, processing and/or storing hazardous
               materials of specified amounts must provide the local fire chief, the county Title

               of these materials or the material safety data sheets (MSDSs) with specific safety
               data regarding each hazardous material on hand in their facility. Citizens may also

               It is further intended through this article that the hazard levels of the contents
               of each aboveground containment tank be posted on the tank and reasonably visible

               the dangers to health, life and property presented, and the emergency procedures that
               should be initiated, to limit or reduce these dangers.
