Does your operation classify as a Major Hazard Installation?

Do you store or release dangerous chemicals? What would be the consequences of these chemicals accidentally being released or combusting?

Do you understand the extent of your liability should your operation be an MHI, but you have not complied with the relevant regulations?

Marsh Environmental Services can assist you by:

• Assessing whether your operation is an MHI, i.e. whether your plant stores, manufactures or is in a position to accidentally release a hazardous substance that could result in severe damage to your plant, the surrounding environment as well as contribute to fatalities both on and off-site;
• Conducting an MHI assessment:
  1. Step One: the potential areas of risk are identified following a site visit and discussions with plant personnel.
  2. Step Two: consequence modelling is conducted to determine the potential injury to people or damage to the plant using plant data and probabilities;
• Making recommendations and developing an Emergency Plan to ensure your company does comply with regulations, thereby limiting your liability.

Marsh Environmental Services bases their risk assessments and MHI studies on literature sourced from the USEPA, the British COMAH regulations, and the Dutch risk assessment manuals
