To find the appropriate guide page in the ERG (Emergency Response Guidebook), start by identifying the four-digit UN number or the name of the hazardous material involved in the incident. Use the index at the beginning of the ERG to locate the corresponding guide number. Once you have the guide number, turn to the specific guide page to access critical information on safety measures, emergency response actions, and potential hazards associated with the material. Always ensure you are referencing the most current edition of the ERG for accurate guidance.
Items in the ERG may be identified as a toxic inhalation hazard in the yellow ID code pages if there is a high inhalation risk. The best way to know this is to look up the explanations in the ERG preface.
