Title: Hazardous Materials Response


1
Hazardous Materials Response
  • Henderson Fire Department
  • Tactical Standard
  • 7th Edition

2
Objectives
  • Explain Operations Level responsibilities
  • Identify Technician Level responsibilities
  • Identify hazmat jurisdictional Incident Command
    responsibilities
  • Describe the 3 levels of hazmat incidents
  • Name the resources utilized to identify hazardous
    materials
  • Recognize common hazmat containers
  • Define isolation perimeter, initial isolation
    zone and protective action distance
  • Explain the 3 scene control zones
  • Describe defensive control actions

3
Objectives continued
  • Identify the differences between gross decon,
    emergency decon, technical (formal) decon, and
    mass decon.
  • Define the 3 hazmat incident strategies
  • Explain the difference between immediate concerns
    and primary objectives
  • Identify the 9 DOT/UN Hazard classes
  • Define a polymerization reaction
  • Explain the management components of a hazmat
    incident
  • Utilize Hazmat IQ system

4
Overview
  • Henderson Fire Hazmat Training
  • Hazmat Potential
  • Training Level
  • Incident Command Responsibilities
  • Note Hazmat Technician Level Training is
    conducted through the Training Division and the
    members of the Hazardous Materials Response Team
    (HMRT) at station 98. Hazmat Technician tactical
    standards are beyond the scope of this chapter.

5
Incident Levels
  • Level I Incident

3 Hazmat Strategies
  • Non-intervention
  • Defensive
  • Offensive

Exceptions are three mission specific
compentencies
26
Immediate Concerns Primary Objectives
  • Immediate Concerns (Ops level)
  • Isolate the area deny entry
  • Evacuate or shelter-in-place
  • Dike/dam/divert runoff
  • Eliminate ignition sources
  • Cool tanks if appropriate
  • Primary Objectives (typically not Ops level)
  • Extinguish fires
  • Control gas or vapor clouds
  • Stop leaks (plug or patch)
  • Turn off valves

27
Hazard Classes
  1. Explosives
  2. Gases
  3. Flammable Combustible Liquids
  4. Flammable Solids, Dangerous When Wet
    Spontaneously Combustible
  5. Oxidizers and Organic Peroxides
