API Recommended Practice 2510A: Fire Protection Considerations for the Design and Operation of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Storage Facilities.
Part 6 of this document discusses the Pre-Fire plan and lists general information that needs to be included in the plan.

CSA Q850: Risk Management Guidelines for Decision Makers, R2007
This standard defines what the risk management decision process is, how to do a review, what to consider in that review, and how to evaluate the review and implement safety measures.

CSA Z1600-08: Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs
This standard addresses the functions of prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery for an entity; including hazard identification, risk assessment and business impact analysis.

NFPA 550: Fire Safety Concepts Tree
This guide describes the structure, application and limitations of the Fire Safety Concepts Tree. It is intended to provide tools to assist the Fire Safety Practitioner (e.g. Designer, Engineer, Code Official) in communicating fire safety and protection concepts. The Fire Safety Concepts Tree assists with the analysis of codes or standards and facilitates the development of performance-based designs. It can identify gaps and areas of redundancy in fire protection strategies as an aid in the making of fire safety decisions.

ISO/TS 16732:2005
This standard provides the conceptual basis for fire risk assessment by stating the principles underlying the quantification and interpretation of fire-related risk. These fire risk principles apply to all fire-related phenomena and all end-use configurations. These fire risk principles can be applied to all types of fire scenarios.

ISO 23932:2009
This standard is not intended as a detailed technical design guide, but does contain the key elements needed by practicing fire safety engineers and peer reviewers (those entities who can be required to review the work of fire-safety engineers) for addressing the different steps and their linkages in a design process. The information contained in ISO 23932:2009 is intended to be useful to engineers directly and also to serve as a template to guide the development of a consistent set of fire-safety engineering documents, covering the role of engineering methods and test methods in performance-based design and assessment.
