Medical considerations are described throughout the text, identifying potential needs of an affected community.. Whether the incident involves hazardous materials, a clandestine laboratory, terrorism or a confined space operation, this user-friendly resource includes information that is consistent with the mission of all agencies.

Jim Thompson said Five Stars. Good reference guide. I like the format.. "A MUST FOR ALL RESPONDERS" according to A Customer. This book was developed with the first responder in mind. It has the information that is needed within the first few minutes of an incident. Identification of not only haz-mat, referance to clan labs, confined space and terrorist incidents.. D. Betz said Quick guide for HazMat. Be safe. Carry one in each vehicle. See what is carried over the roads and what to " keep your distance" on the road, truckstop or when parking for the night.
