ERG for Android

The Official USDOT Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG) is an essential tool designed by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) for first responders dealing with incidents involving dangerous goods or hazardous materials during transportation.

The ERG app, which is based on the most recent edition of the ERG, serves as a crucial digital companion for responders. It offers quick access to vital information, featuring an easy-to-navigate index of dangerous goods. This index includes each substance's ID number, details on general hazards, and recommended safety measures, enabling responders to act swiftly and effectively.

In real-world applications, such as an incident involving an overturned tractor-trailer with a DOT hazmat placard, the ERG app allows emergency personnel to rapidly identify the hazardous material linked to the placard and obtain clear guidance on the best response strategies.

The ERG is available in full versions in English, French, and Spanish, ensuring accessibility for a wide range of users.
