Identify Threats -(Specific to Your Situation)

• Situational Considerations
• Length of Deployment/Mission/Operation
• Potential vs. Actual Location
• Amount of Time at Actual Location
• Population of Concern
• Obtain Industrial Hazard Information
• Submit COLISEUM
• Intelink Resources

5
List of Toxicological Industrial Hazards as
Identified by AFMIC
6
Using Only One source of information may leave
some threats unidentified

• Release Information
• On-Site Recon
• Maintenance Facilities
• Decon Sites
• Munitions Storage
• Existing Infrastructure
• Threat Levels
• Terrorist
• Crime
• Industry History

7
Hazard Severity -Determine an exposure scenario
for your situation
Assessing the Hazard

• High Exposure Scenario - Personnel in very
  close geographical
• and temporal proximity to a facility when an
  event resulting in a
• large chemical release occurred.
• Low Exposure Scenario - Personnel in close
  proximity to a
• moderate release (small but significant leak)
  or recent residual
• contamination.

Develop Controls and Make Risk Decision

• AVOIDANCE
• Establish Avoidance/Exclusion Areas for
  Facilities
• 1 Kilometer Exclusion Zone
• 5 Kilometer Avoid Encampment of Mobile Units
• 10 Kilometer Avoid Fixed Semi-permanent and
  Permanent Encampments
• ACE Directive 80-64, Policy for Defensive
  Measures against Toxic Industrial Chemical (TIC)
  Hazards during Military Operations

Develop Controls and Make Risk Decision

• SECURE/MONITOR SITE(S) OF CONCERN
• APPROPRIATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
• RISK COMMUNICATION
• CONDUCT AN INDUSTRIAL HAZARD SURVEY

14
Implement ControlsSupervise and Evaluation

• Have site surveys provided additional
  information?
• Has the mission changed?
• Have improvements to Personal Protective
  Equipment occurred?
• Is there additional industrial intelligence
  information available?
• Has the Industrial Facility operational status
  changed?

15
Industrial Hazards Database

• Tool to collect industrial hazard
  information in the field
• Integrates several datum
• Standard Industrial Code (SIC) Tables (gt500
  industries)
• TRI Information for SIC (gt1800 chemicals)
• National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
  Hazard Rating for Chemicals
• TG230 Hazard Information
• Ability to define exclusion zones around
  facilities
• Generate IHA reports for basecamps
