Schedule 5 OEP
Emergency
Response Plan
— WHAT IS AN OEP —
An Onsite Emergency Plan (OEP) is a formal document that identifies the major accident scenarios at an industrial facility and prescribes the procedures, responsibilities, resources, and actions to respond effectively — protecting workers, contractors, and the community. Under MSIHC Rules 1989 (Rule 13, Schedule 5), every Major Hazard Installation (MHI) in Gujarat must prepare, maintain, and periodically test its OEP. DISH Gujarat conducts inspections verifying OEP currency, completeness, and mock drill compliance.
MSIHC Rules — Mandatory for MHI Facilities
Any Gujarat industry handling Schedule 1 chemicals above threshold quantities must have a current OEP per MSIHC Rules Schedule 5. DISH Gujarat MHI inspections verify OEP documentation and annual mock drill records.
MoEFCC EC Conditions Require OEP
MoEFCC Environmental Clearance for chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical expansion/greenfield projects typically includes a pre-commissioning condition requiring OEP preparation and submission.
Annual Mock Drills Required
MSIHC Rules mandate at least one full-scale emergency mock drill annually. Mock drill records must be maintained for DISH Gujarat inspection. Tabletop exercises alternate with full-scale drills.

— OUR PROCESS —
Our 6-step OEP preparation process follows MSIHC Rules Schedule 5 and DISH Gujarat documentation requirements.
Complete inventory of hazardous chemicals at your facility against MSIHC Rules Schedule 1 threshold quantities. Identification of MHI triggers, major accident hazard (MAH) scenarios, and regulatory requirements (DISH Gujarat, GPCB, MoEFCC EC, PESO). Assessment of existing emergency response resources and gaps.
Modelling of worst-case and representative emergency scenarios using PHAST or equivalent software: toxic gas dispersion distances, fire radiation zones, explosion overpressure contours, BLEVE fireball radii. Results establish the geographic scope of the OEP and guide evacuation route and assembly point selection.
Preparation of the Onsite Emergency Plan per MSIHC Rules Schedule 5 format — site description, hazard inventory, emergency scenarios, emergency response team structure, notification protocols, evacuation routes, assembly points, resource inventory, mutual aid agreements, and recovery procedures.
Development of specific emergency response procedures (ERPs) for each major accident scenario — step-by-step response actions for first responders, ERT members, incident commander, and external agency coordination. Flow charts, decision trees, and notification checklists included for rapid reference during emergencies.
Preparation of colour-coded site layout drawings showing chemical storage locations, process hazard zones, fire water systems, escape routes, assembly points, emergency access roads, and utility isolation points. A3/A4 laminated emergency layout maps for posting at workstations throughout the facility.
Facilitation of tabletop exercise (TTX) and full-scale mock drill per MSIHC Rules annual requirement. Drill evaluation, debrief report, and gap analysis. Final OEP document submitted in DISH Gujarat–accepted format with drill record, resource inventory, and annexures for MHI Safety Report and MSIHC consent renewal.
