  1. Operational Level Lesson 2 Presentation Hazardous Materials for First Responders, 3rd Ed.

  2. Approaching the Scene Safely • Identify and evaluate problem locations and hazardous occupancies during emergency response planning. • Include remote observation/assessment steps in the emergency plan. • Always approach the scene from uphill, upwind, and upstream if at all possible. (1 of 2) Operational Level

  3. Approaching the Scene Safely • Use binoculars, a spotting scope, a camera lens, or a sight scope for observation. • Report any unusual conditions to the telecommunications/dispatch center. • Use the assessment location as a temporary staging area if reconnaissance teams must approach on foot. (2 of 2) Operational Level
