Haz Mat: On the Line

摘要

The start of the millennium is a good time to review not only where we have been but also where we are headed in a haz-mat sense. To aid in reflection, I have researched many sources for information concerning haz-mat releases and response to these emergencies. Data were collected and interpreted, and megatrends, if you will, were identified. The purpose of all of this effort was to inform the fire service of what may be around the bend so that we can plan for improving our haz-mat response program.
