  • Abstract ¡@¡@In support of environmental protection, the government has begun to promote the use of liquefied petroleum gas(LPG) as fuel for automobiles amid air pollution and oil price hikes. A growing number of gas filling stations will appear in Taiwan in the near future. The installation of gas filling stations is to meet the demand and of necessity, but their locations are often in crowded urban areas with their physical proximity to commercial, residential buildings as well as schools. Moreover, damages caused by incidents of gas filling stations are much greater than that caused by traditional petrol stations. With the increase of gas filling stations, the risks associated with them are also rising.
    ¡@¡@At present, the lack of manpower in gas filling stations renders it difficult to implement adequate response procedures. Once an accident occurs, the fire-fighting squad becomes the only recourse. However, the number of petrol stations/gas filling stations near a gas filling station is generally greater than the number of fire-fighting squads. As a result, this manifests the current insufficiency of manpower, gears and time of emergency response in gas filling stations. This research proposes the planning of the joint emergency response operation, including the establishment and operation of the joint emergency response organization as well as the concept and implementation of joint emergency response planning meetings. The emergency response development plans are formulated on the basis of different evolving events of LPG leak incidents and the natures of incidents. An adequate response strategy is then developed according to different evolving events of the development plans. Finally, the better joint emergency response mechanism is triggered based on the response strategy and available manpower and resources at the time of incident. The response strategy will be in concurrent with the emergency response command card, events response card and joint emergency response dispatch card to increase the effectiveness of the response and joint emergency response.
    ¡@¡@This research utilizes both the physical proximity between gas filling stations/petrol stations and their similar emergency response procedures. When an incident takes place, the joint emergency response mechanism can be triggered before the fire-fighting units of the county/city government arrive at the site of incident. This will lead to more rapid and complete function of the emergency response which will cut down damages caused by gas leaks, fires or explosions in gas filling stations. Therefore, the risks associated with gas filling stations and the environment can be reduced.
