One benefit of a sound community plan to deal with a hazardous materials emergency is:
a. fewer resources are required to handle the incident
b. the need for assistance from other jurisdictions is eliminated
c. the likelihood of an incident occurring is almost eliminated
d. roles and responsibilities are defined

Having a sound community plan to deal with hazardous materials emergency is important because roles and responsibilities are defined and people in the community are assigned to knowing the safety risks and safe disposal of the materials. This is important because without a plan, many people would not know how to action in an emergency.
