What must be verified regarding combustible material in the emergency preparedness plan?

Combustible material must be stored and removed properly as part of the emergency preparedness plan to ensure safety and compliance with fire codes. Proper storage minimizes the risk of fire hazards by keeping combustible materials organized and in designated areas that are less likely to catch fire or spread flames. Additionally, removing combustible materials that are no longer needed or are improperly stored helps reduce clutter and potential fuel sources for fires, which is crucial in maintaining a safe environment. This practice is essential for minimizing risk and ensuring that emergency response procedures can be effectively implemented when necessary. Other options, although they might address aspects of safety, do not encompass the entire scope of necessary actions regarding combustible materials in an emergency readiness context.
