MyRMP Program 3 Guidance Materials
Version 2.0
This innovative suite of web-based tools is the second generation of guidance developed exclusively to assist agricultural facilities with implementing their Risk Management Program and in preparation of their Risk Management Plan (RMP).
The MyRMP Program 3 Guidance Materials are sponsored by The Fertilizer Institute and was developed cooperatively with the Asmark Institute. This innovative approach to industry-specific guidance is supported by U.S. EPA. This suite of compliance assistance tools has been specifically developed to provide agricultural facilities with industry-standard information to assist in the preparation and maintenance of the Risk Management Program for their facility.
Based on the experience since 1999 with RMP compliance, the task force responsible for developing MyRMP noticed one common deficiency that prevents genuine compliance at agricultural locations, which is a lack of understanding and basic knowledge of the Risk Management Program rule by the facility personnel. Any performance-oriented requirement is only as good as its implementation. Accordingly, MyRMP has been developed with a special emphasis on education and personalizing the experience and materials to a specific facility.
MyPSM+RMP Suite of Guidance Materials has been designed to focus users on developing their site-specific program while preventing duplicative actions. In order by RMP, only one link is obviously active for each element to ensure users never get lost between the RMP and PSM requirements. Great effort has been made to ensure one click provides you with the resources to comply with both the RMP and PSM requirements.
Please note that additional information may be required to supplement the information provided based upon the specific circumstances found at each facility. Management or supervisors who are in direct contact with, and responsible for, a group of employees are essential to effective implementation of the provisions of the Risk Management Program.
