k During an incident critique, responders identified several shortcomings in their SOPS. This information
should: - Be used to improve their response to the next hazardous materials incident
Identify all the people who should be present at an incident debriefing - Hazmat Response Team, IMS
Officers, Incident Commander, Information Officers
You have just written the critique record for an incident where several responders were badly burned.
The next step is to: - Circulate the report to allow everyone in the response system to share the lessons
learned.
Although normally very effective, two-way radio communication can fail. Identify THREE causes of
problems with two-way radio communications - Faulty Batteries, Interference, and enclosed spaces.
The primary hazard you'll encounter when removing product from an MC-312/DOT-412 cargo tank is: -
Corrosivity
If you respond to an incident involving an MC-306/DOT-406 carrying ethanol-blended gasoline, you'll
need to suppress the fire using: - Class B foam-alcohol resistant concentrate
An MC-306/DOT-406 cargo tank is found to be leaking gasoline from a number of small, regular
punctures. The easiest method of stopping the leaks would be: - plugging with small pine plugs
One important safety consideration for choosing power or hand tools for product removal/transfer
operations is whether the tool: - is non-sparking
,To fix a leaking pressure relief valve gasket on a chlorine rail tank car, you could tighten the stud nuts OR:
- Apply the hood assembly
A valve/plug assembly should be used to: - Replace a missing plug
Proper care of tools and equipment used to control hazardous materials releases includes all of the
following EXCEPT: - Thoroughly washing all parts with a chlorine bleach solution
When grounding a damaged tank, place the clamp: - Low enough on the grounding rod so that foam, if
used, will build up around the clamp
The object of bonding is to: - Keep objects at the same electrical potential, decreasing or eliminating any
chance of a static spark
When setting up a mass decon corridor, it should be located: - Upwind from the incident site
During an extensive decon operation, the step that would be performed just PRIOR to "SCBA Removal"
involving Level B protective clothing is: - Perform technical decontamination
When preparing to decontaminate, pay special attention to contaminants that can affect: - PPE and
monitoring equipment
Identify THREE emergency situations that can endanger the wearer of a CPC suit - Loss of suit integrity,
disruption in radio communications, and loss of air supply
Match each ICS Position with its function - Decontamination Unit Leader= Determine the level of
decontamination required
Entry Unit Leader= Supervises the entry team and makes recommendations about control activities in
the hot zone
Assistant Safety Officer Hazmat= Responsible for the safety of all personnel operating in the hot zone
Information/Research= Provides information on the hazards present and chemical compatibility of
protective clothing and equipment
, Identify the item in the confined space shown here that indicates the space has been isolated - B- the
Tags
Displacement using a non-flammable gas is one procedure for: - Inerting
The decontamination method that causes a contaminant to bond chemically with another substance is: -
Adsorption
Identify TWO cargo transfer methods that can be applied to ALL TYPES of MC-306/DOT-406, MC-
307/DOT-407. and MC-312/DOT-412 cargo tanks - Internal valves and loading/unloading lines
Identify TWO concerns to address when evaluating a pump for use in a removal/transfer operation -
Ignition source and chemical compatibility
When using loading/unloading lines on a MC-360/DOT-306 cargo tank for a product transfer, be sure
that: - The unloading line is below the fuel level in the tank
Vent and burn operations are usually conducted by: - Container or product specialists
The Incident Commander has decided to change the size of the danger zone to halt the spread of this
methyl ethyl badstuff leak. As a Technician-level responder, you should consider all of the following
tactical action options EXCEPT: - Plugging the hold in the drum
A site safety plan contains information specifically targeted at keeping responders safe - True
A typical plan of action is based on all of the following EXCEPT: - The Incident Commander's knowledge
of the hazardous materials behavior model
All of the following factors should be considered when selecting the proper level of respiratory
protection EXCEPT: - The ability to refill SCBA cylinders
