Hazardous Materials Incidents: Surviving the Initial Response

by Steven M. DeLisi

Hazardous Materials Incidents: Surviving the Initial Response : First responders who
arrive on the scene of a hazardous materials incident may be assigned to an engine,
ladder truck, rescue, or ambulance with very little sophisticated HAZMAT equipment.
Despite these limitations, their actions during the initial response will often set
the stage for the success or failure of the entire event.

Many incidents start out as minor "routine" events that suddenly escalate when
something goes terribly wrong! First responders, despite their best intentions, can
quickly become part of any hazardous materials problem. The results can be first
responders who are killed or seriously injured, or those who suffer devastating
illnesses years after exposure to a hazardous material.
