Questions and Answers 100% pass
When responding to hazardous materials/WMD incidents Operations level
responders shall be able to preform the following task... - ✔✔1. Analyze a HazMat
incident to determine the scope of the problem
2. Plan an initial response
3. Implement a planned response
4. Evaluate the progress
Analyzing a hazardous material incident to determine the scope of the problem
involves... - ✔✔1. Surveying the incident to identify containers and materials
involved, determine if wether hazardous material has been released and evaluate the
surrounding conditions
2. Collect hazard and response information from SDS, CHEMTREC and
shipping/manufacturer contracts
3.Predict the behavior of Hazardous materials and its container
4.Estimate the potential harm through TRACE-MP
What does TRACE-MP stand for? - ✔✔Types of potential harm at Hazardous
Material/WMD incidents.

,Asphyxiation
Chemical
Etiological
Mechanical
Psychological/ Psychogenic
The initial response at a HazMat incident is determined by.. - ✔✔The capabilities
and competencies of available personnel and personal protective equipment
The response objectives at a hazardous material/WMD incident include... -
✔✔1.Evacuation
2. Search and Rescue
3. Exposure protection/ Isolating the Area
4. Defensive control techniques
5. Crime scene management and evidence preservation
6. Recovery and termination
Describe the response options available for Evacuation - ✔✔1. Full scale evacuation
2. Shelter-in-place
3. Combination
Describe the response options available for Search and Rescue - ✔✔1. Based on
training and equipment
2. Risk-benefit analysis (risk a lot to save a lot, risk a little to save a little)
Describe the response options available for Exposure protection/Isolating the Area -
✔✔1.Establish initial isolation zone
2.Establish protective action distance
3. Establish control zones

, Describe the response options available for Defensive Control Techniques - ✔✔1.
Damming (Overflow or Underflow)
2. Diking
3. Retention
4. Dispersion
5. Absorption
6. Adsorption
7. Dilution
8. Dissolution
9. Diversion
10. Vapor dispersion
11. Vapor suppression
12. Ventilation
13. Remote valve shutoff
What is Damming... - ✔✔Physical method of confinement by which barriers are
constructed to prevent or reduce the quantity of liquid flowing into the
environment. Consists of constructing a barrier across a waterway to stop/control
the product flow and pick up liquid or solid contaminants
What is Underflow Damming ... - ✔✔Spill control tactic used to trap floating lighter
than water materials behind the dam. Dam is constructed in a manner that allows
uncontaminated water to flow unobstructed under the dam while keeping the
contaminant behind the dam.
What is Overflow Damming... - ✔✔Spill control tactic used to trap sinking heavier
than water materials behind the dam. With the product trapped, uncontaminated
water is allowed to flow unobstructed over the top of the dam.
