Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) and
Toxic Industrial Materials (TIM)
The Office of Emergency Management is the county department
responsible for the oversight of the Pasco County Hazardous
Incident Team (HIT).

The HIT is an inter-agency team comprised of Emergency
Management, Fire Department, Sheriff's Office, Health
Department, Code Enforcement, and private industry personnel.

The team is positioned throughout the county, and is capable of
responding to all types of hazardous incidents including
CBRNE/WMD events.

The good things that chemicals bring into our lives have become
indispensable to us. Although major chemical emergencies are
extremely rare, there always remains a chance that one will occur
in our community despite the precautions that have been taken
by the chemical users/producers and emergency responders.

Knowledge of how to respond safely and appropriately to
hazardous material emergencies greatly lessens the chance of
serious injury and brings peace of mind.
