What type of information is found in the blue pages of the ERG?

The blue pages of the Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG) contain material name pages, presenting a comprehensive list of hazardous substances along with their corresponding identification numbers. This section is crucial for emergency responders because it allows them to quickly locate and identify the specific material involved in an incident. By knowing the name of the material, responders can access relevant safety and response information more efficiently.

This section focuses on facilitating timely action during emergencies by ensuring that responders can identify substances based on their names, which is especially helpful when the materials are not associated with typical incident identification numbers. The blue pages serve as an essential tool for hazardous materials management and response.
