Résumé

The most comprehensive hazmat emergency response training manual following NFPA and OSHA competency criteria

Hazardous materials emergency response is an inherently dangerous occupation. To mitigate the risks, professionals over the past decade have learned to rely on Emergency Responder Training Manual for the Hazardous Materials Technician for its practical and innovative approach, real-world proven methods of delivery, and ease of use.

But as influential and invaluable as the first edition was, the inalterable transformation of the public and private hazmat response fields since its publication now requires its revision and updating. This Second Edition, still the most comprehensive resource on the market for addressing the training needs of personnel who respond to hazmat emergencies, has been expanded to include:

Emergency response to terrorism incidents, including incident command, site control, personal protective equipment, air monitoring, and more
Updated information on revised OSHA regulations, including the respiratory protection standard, focusing on both its requirements and its application
Competency criteria mandated in the National Fire Protection Association's standard on emergency response
Emphasis on the Unified Command structure as part of the Incident Command System for managing large incidents

Emergency Responder Training Manual for the Hazardous Materials Technician, Second Edition provides the knowledge, experience, and insights of a veteran author team with over eight decades of combined academic and practical hazmat experience. Organized to lead the practitioner from preplanning to dispatch to stabilization of an incident, it remains the number-one resource for training personnel who must respond-- with speed and effectiveness-- to emergencies involving hazardous materials.
