SEC. 107. NOTIFICATION OF PUBLIC AND PROFESSIONALS. 
(a) EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION.— 
(1) HIGHEST RISK AREAS.—The Administrator 
shall take immediate action to ensure that contami-
nated areas that have already been identified as pos-
ing the highest risk to human health are properly 
marked with warning signs, and will advise and co-
ordinate access to such areas local and on-site police 
and law enforcement officials. The Administrator 
will also ensure that public and health officials from 
the surrounding region are provided with detailed in-
formation about the dangers posed by the area of 
contamination. This being of the highest priority, 
the Administrator shall not wait for the first draft 
of the CESTAP plan before acting. 
(2) AIRBORNE CONTAMINANTS.—The Adminis-
trator shall take immediate action to ensure that the 
population in areas subject to potential health risks 
from airborne contaminants are made aware of the 
dangers they face through a public information cam-
paign, with literature to be provided to and dissemi-
nated by State and local officials, and where their 
capacity is lacking, by Federal agencies. This being 
of the highest priority, the Administrator shall not 
wait for the first draft of the CESTAP plan before 
acting.
(b) TRANSPARENCY.— 
(1) INFORMATION CAMPAIGN.—A major compo-
nent of the CESTAP plan shall be a pro-active in-
formation campaign as part of an effort to produce

ments providing affected populations with clear and 
concise warnings about the potential hazards they 
face. 
(2) REGULAR
UPDATES.—The Administrator 
shall ensure that the campaign is on-going, pro-
viding the public with new information as it becomes 
available.

shall ensure that this information campaign includes 
the provision of detailed information, in print and 
through direct consultation, to officials overseeing 
disaster relief, rehabilitation and clean-up.

ministrator shall develop the CESTAP plan by— 
(A) identifying and tapping available re-
sources and manpower of agencies other than 
the Environmental Protection Agency, while at 
the same time, 
(B) combining efforts as much as possible 
with those agencies to be so tapped, through 
such measures as— 
(i) setting up joint information cam-
paigns where possible; 
(ii) identifying teams of agencies who 
will be working in high risk areas and pro-
visioning the necessary protective gear; and

unnecessary duplication of effort.
