The Hazmat Ops Toolbox

摘要

Fire departments have been responding to hazmat-related emergencies since perhaps the fire service was founded. At one time, natural gas/propane leaks, gasoline spills and many other chemical-related emergencies always resulted in the dispatch of firefighters. We may not have called those who responded "hazmat units" at the time, but if the incidents impacted public safety, there was a good chance that firefighters were on scene, doing their best to mitigate the situation.
