Basic Details
Name PER-222 Public Safety WMD Response - Sampling Techniques & Guidelines : ( PER-222)
Description This course will prepare hazardous materials (HazMat) teams within State and local emergency response agencies to conduct public safety operations at weapons of mass destruction (WMD) sites in a safe and efficient manner consistent with established crime scene/evidentiary guidelines established by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The course will challenge participants to develop a systematic approach to managing a WMD scene in which the public’s safety is at risk. The course evolves from traditional problem-based classroom activities into a series of scenario-based practical exercises. Participants who successfully complete the course are eligible to participate in the Advanced Chemical/Biological Integrated Response course delivered at the Dugway Proving Grounds. PREREQUISITES * Successful completion of a WMD awareness-level training course is highly recommended. Being a certified HazMat technician qualifies a participant at the primary level. Demonstrating a need-to know job function required to support, supervise, and/or work with individuals responsible for collecting, receiving, or processing samples from a contaminated environment qualifies a participant at the secondary level. * Current document attesting to medical clearance and respiratory fit test on file. * Participants must have a government-issued photo ID. * Participant application must be complete. * Familiarity with biological and chemical agents is recommended. TARGET AUDIENCE / DISCIPLINE * Law Enforcement * Fire Service * Hazardous Material (HazMat) * Public Health COURSE OBJECTIVES * Participants will be able to articulate the course purpose, goals, and objectives; summarize how course materials can be applied to meet public safety WMD response and sampling performance requirements; and explain the participant performance evaluation process. * Participants will be able to respond to potential WMD events in an organized and systematic manner, and follow the logic of public safety processes and procedures. * Participants will be able to identify basic sampling tactics, techniques, and procedures and follow WMD sampling protocol. * Participants will be able to perform various sampling techniques by selecting the appropriate technique and equipment based on the incident conditions.
