The Community Advisory Panel (CAP) to Dow Texas Operations recently held its March meeting. Jim Overman, Texas Operation's Site Risk Management Plan (RMP) Coordinator, explained that the purpose of Dow's RMP is risk management and plan development for potential 'worst case' events through the institution of safe design, training and redundancy for Dow plants.

Dow is a leader in the chemical industry for strict design specifications, state-of-the-art control systems, redundant controls and safe guards, maintenance programs and the emergency response Community Awareness & Emergency Response program.
