VINYL CHLORIDE PANEL
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
The Vinyl Chloride Panel formed in 1971 to develop and assess health effects data on vinyl chloride monomer through animal research and epidemiologic studies. In 1991, the Panel shifted its focus to promoting greater safety in the transportation and handling of the chemical.
Industry Positions are being analyzed, developed or advocated regarding:
Organizes and operates the Vinyl Chloride Emergency Response Network (VCNet), a mutual aid network among Panel member companies for response to distribution incidents involving vinyl chloride.
Develops educational materials such as the Vinyl Chloride Safety Awareness Training Manual. Sponsors vinyl chloride safety training workshops for emergency response personnel of fire departments, rescue squads, contractors, manufacturing plants,
railroads and communities. Advocates the interest of vinyl chloride manufacturers before federal and international regulatory agencies.
Primary Operational & Economic Challenges to the Chemical Industry Include:
There could be serious transportation incidences without emergency response network that could lead to catastrophic situations. Adverse health effects may continue without proper identification ofunderlying cause.
