Chemical Incidents<br />

A. Scene Management<br />

1. Establish the triage and treatment line immediately following the mass casualty decon<br />

corridor.<br />

2. Ensure that victims do not have to pass through the warm zone or hot zones to proceed to<br />

the transportation area.<br />

3. Establish control areas as part of the triage sector. Victims who do not need immediate<br />

transport can be sent to these areas, while those requiring immediate transport can be<br />

moved to the transportation area.<br />

4. Identify building areas or other large areas that can be used to temporarily house victims<br />

in cold weather.<br />
