Which organization provides hazard and response information for chemicals at incidents, available around the clock?

• A. EPA
• B. CDC
• C. OSHA
• D. CHEMTREC

Answer: (D)

CHEMTREC is the 24/7 emergency chemical information center that provides hazard data and response guidance for chemicals involved in incidents, available at any time. Responders rely on this around-the-clock resource to get technical details, recommended protective actions, and steps for containment and decontamination during hazmat events. The other agencies—EPA, CDC, and OSHA—offer regulatory and public health information, but they do not operate a 24/7 incident-focused hotline for chemical hazards and response.
