What does Crosstex’s emergency response plans cover?
The plans outline the steps to be taken in the event of a fire, rupture, major leak, or serious incident occurring at or near one of our facilities. The plans are developed to prepare our employees and local emergency response personnel to handle emergency situations involving our facilities and to protect the public. The plans outline the roles and responsibilities of company, contractor, and local response personnel. Communication and cooperation with local organizations are key components of the emergency response plans, and the feedback from these interactions is used in the development and revision of these plans. How does Crosstex’s safety record compare to others in the natural gas pipeline business? Crosstex tracks each incident and has historically performed better than the industry average, i.e. our incident rate is substantially lower than our peers.
