What is an offensive strategy
Burning of the eyes, respiratory tract; commonly used for crowd control and often dispersed as an aerosol
What is a RCA
Area around there release where contamination is present and only trained, properly protected personnel can enter
What is the hot zone
ICS
Incident command system
Disintegration, runway linear cracking, container attachments open, container puncturs
Breach events
Conditions are too dangerous, resources are insufficient, and any action would likely result in responder harm without meaningful benefit. You choose to monitor and isolate only
What is non-intervention
Exposure to this damages the membranes of the lunits and can lead to “dry land drowning”
What is a choking agent
The decon line is here
What is the warm zone
NIMS
National information management system
Type and location of the breach, quantity and flow characteristics, rate and duration of the release, weather conditions
release considerations
During operations, conditions change nd risk increases beyond acceptable limits, forcing you to shift strategy midd-incident
What is dynamic risk assessment / strategy reevaluation
Interferes with the body’s ability to use blood at the cellular level
What is a blood agent
Civilians are told to remain inside of buildings and close windows
Shelter-in-place
CHRIS
Chemical hazards response information systrem
The general course of action, direction, or plan yo accomplish the incident objectives and priorities
Strategies
Information obtained from beyond the inner perimeter
Defensive recon
Loss of muscle control due to exposure to an organophosphate compound
What is a nerve agent
This type of evacuation would be the best option if the HAZMAT is leaking inside the building and the material is flammable or toxic or the state of the HAZMAT makes it hard to control
What is limited scale evacuation
CAMEO
Computer assisted management of emergency operations
Establish the intended outcomes in a specific operational period
incident objectives
A valve is shut, but pressure builds in the container, creating a new hazard
What is risk transfer
CWO2 Cosby has a carpenter bee that lives outside her back door. It is big, fat, travels slow, and only poses an internal risk. She named it after this type of particulate radiation.
Apha
Transportation, relocation facility, and information are three of the four critical issues that must be addressed and managed effectively in a full scale evacuation. This is the fourth.
What is alerting and notification
ALOHA
area locations of hazardous atmosphere
Release rate of < 0.01 second versus release rate of 0.01 to 1 section
Detonation versus violent rupture
