3  Control measures to limit the consequences of major incidents
 3.1 A detailed description of:
 (a) the instrumentation and other equipment installed in the facility and the processes and procedures in place that are the control measures to be implemented by the operator; and
 (b) the critical operating parameters for those control measures; and
 (c) key personnel and resources (internal and external) available to intervene in the event of any failure of a control measure, whether or not that failure results in a major incident; and
 (d) a summary of the emergency plan, including specific information about how the plan can be expected to limit the consequences of a major incident; and
 (e) the means of ensuring that there is at all times in place a command structure for the major hazard facility that applies in the event of an emergency, and that this command structure has been communicated to workers throughout the major hazard facility.
 3.2 In item 3.1:
critical operating parameters means the upper or lower performance limits of any equipment, process or procedure, compliance with which is necessary to avoid a major incident.
failure of a control measure means:
 (a) if the control measure is a positive action or event—the non‑occurrence or the defective occurrence of that action or event; or
 (b) if the control measure consists of a limitation on an operational activity, process or procedure—the breach of that limitation.
