Section 407. - Service limits.
The service provided by the hazardous materials response team is limited to the initial emergency response to a hazardous materials release, abandonment, discharge or deposit incident and includes only those stabilization and protective measures deemed necessary and feasible by the incident commander to initially address the immediate threat to the public health and safety. Deployment of the team beyond the scope of the team's resources and capabilities for such an initial response is not contemplated under this title and the City reserves the right to terminate the services of the team at any time after arrival at the site. Protective and stabilization requirements continuing beyond the cessation of service, along with the cleaning up, removal or disposal of hazardous materials, and any testing, monitoring or long-term care of the site of the hazardous materials incident shall remain the duty of the responsible party. The provisions of this chapter shall not be construed to excuse or exempt any responsible party from any legal duties, liabilities or costs associated with the hazardous materials release, abandonment, discharge or deposit other than the costs for the services of the hazardous materials response team for the duration of the service call.
