When analyzing a hazardous materials incident, a general knowledge of containers helps
technicians to ______________ .
,Estimate associated hazards
What is the last phase of the APIE - T process.
Terminate

Properly, identify the product and determine its chemical and physical properties
What provides the hazmat technician with an organized approach to understanding the
hazardous characteristics of a product?
Hazard profile
When serving as a tech specialist at a hazmat incident, ideally the first thing a hazmat
technician should do at an incident is:
