Incidents involving this substance are potentially the most dangerous for emergency responders.
Gases
This is the primary consideration when selecting a mode of operation
First Responder Safety
Follow AHJ SOPs can minimizing contact with...
potential contaminants.
The reason why oxygen enriched atmosphere is dangerous
flammability and/or explosive potential is greatly increased.
Another term for leak control
Containment
When flames contact a tank shell above its liquid level
BLEVE
The mode of operation that responders take aggressive, direct action on the material, container, or process equipment involved in the incident
Offensive
This provides victims with psychological reassurance
Decontamination
The reason it is important to operate monitoring and detection devices at different heights within a room/area
some gases sink and others rise.
Where emergency shutoff devices on cargo tank trucks usually located
Behind the driver's side cab
Where a responder can expect to find information on a material's appearance and odor as well as its potential behavior
Safety Data Sheet (SDS)
Also known as the mental process of hazard analysis
Size-Up
The action plan for if a responder becomes contaminated
Withdraw immediately and follow SOPs for emergency decon
May be the cause of a detection, monitoring, or sampling instrument does not returning a specific result
other hazards may still be present.
Directing or diverting a spilled hazardous liquid to a remote location for collection

Is the reason individuals must remove as much clothing as possible before showering
can remove significant amounts of the contaminant materials.
A responsibility of Operations Level Responders with Mission-Specific detection, monitoring, and sampling training
Read, interpret, and document readings from detection, monitoring, and sampling equipment
Control method when molecules of a liquid hazardous material physically adhere to the material
Adsorption
This is required to start a chemical reaction
Energy
You can call this resource for help contacting manufacturers, shippers, carriers, or pipeline operators
Emergency response centers
Often the most expedient decon approach for many liquid products
A high-volume, low-pressure water shower
An ID (incapacitating dose) is associated with this agent
chemical warfare
Indicated by an emergency shutoff device with a metal cable running down one side of the frame rail of the container or from the liquid valve to a fixed point away from the container
Intermodal container
