Activity: Identify the HazardDefinition: Upon arriving on scene, begin to assess site, sample, identify, <strong>and</strong> characterizeWMD/hazmat <strong>and</strong> contamination situation, conduct hazard analysis to determine potentialconsequence <strong>and</strong> risk, develop plans for safety <strong>and</strong> hazmat/<strong>decontamination</strong> operations, <strong>and</strong> setup hazmat zones.Critical TasksRes.B2b 5.1.1Res.B2b 5.1Res.B2b 5.2Res.B2b 5.2.1Res.B2b 5.5.3Res.B2b 5.2.2Res.B2b 5.2.3Res.B2b 5.2.3.1Res.B2b 5.5.2Res.B2b 5.5Res.B2b 5.3Res.B2b 5.4Performance MeasuresNotify law enforcement for guidance on collection <strong>and</strong> management of evidence from potentialcrime scenesInitiate hazmat <strong>response</strong>Survey the incident sceneIdentify hazmat <strong>and</strong> the extent/scope of the incidentAnalyze weather forecast to conduct hazard zone predictionConduct contamination surveysAssess hazmat release situationConduct oil <strong>and</strong> hazmat assessmentMonitor movement of <strong>hazardous</strong> releases <strong>and</strong> formulate predictions on dispersion <strong>and</strong>characteristics over timeCharacterize consequences <strong>and</strong> riskIdentify <strong>and</strong> establish perimeter <strong>and</strong> hazmat zones (hot, warm, cold)Conduct ongoing assessments <strong>and</strong> predictionsTime in which area is isolated <strong>and</strong> public access is controlledTime in which <strong>hazardous</strong> <strong>materials</strong> or category involved areidentifiedActivity: Assess Hazard <strong>and</strong> Evaluate RiskMetricWithin 15 minutes from arrival on sceneWithin 30 minutes from arrival on sceneDefinition: Assess the hazards present, evaluate the level of risk to both responders <strong>and</strong> thepublic, <strong>and</strong> develop <strong>and</strong> Incident Action Plan (IAP) to address the <strong>response</strong> problemCritical TasksRes.B2b 5.5.1Res.B2b 5.5.1.1Res.B2b 5.5.1.2Res.B2b 5.5.1.3Res.B2b 5.5.2Collect, prioritize, <strong>and</strong> manage data <strong>and</strong> information from all sourcesDevelop incident monitoring <strong>and</strong> sampling strategy based upon a realistic assessment ofoperational hazardsConduct sampling operationsIdentify, classify, <strong>and</strong> verify suspected non-biological WMD/hazmat samples through the use ofat least two (preferably three) different instrument technologiesUse plume dispersion models <strong>and</strong> other analytical tools to generate ongoing WMD/hazmatdispersion assessmentsTarget Capabilities List 365RESPOND MISSION: WMD AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESPONSE AND DECONTAMINATION
