Assignment Guidelines

In this assignment, you will create an organizational chart that outlines the roles and responsibilities of those who would respond to a large chemical spill in your city.
You should presume that local, state, and federal personnel and resources will be involved in the response.
- Be sure to highlight what organization should take the lead in the response.
Your chart should not only list each organization but should also provide brief descriptions (50-100 words) of the organization's responsibility.
