APPENDIX A
Guide to Using Portions
of the 2002 Guide
As noted in the 2010 Guide, much of the original 2002 Guide to Updating Highway Emergency
Response Plans for Terrorist Incidents (NCHRP, 2002) remains valid today. This appendix iden-
tifies those still-valid portions and those that are not. (NOTE: a word-for-word review of the
2002 Guide was not conducted, so take these as high-level comments.)
