| Hazardous Materials Response Training: |
|
SRI has developed a series of Hazardous Materials courses designed for Emergency Response Teams, Emergency Management Personnel and other First Responders. Students will learn tactics for responding to a hazardous materials release, Including: Hazard Identification, Scene Safety, Basic Personal Protective Equipment, and Emergency Decontamination. These courses will prepare our trainees to meet the challenges of hazardous environments of all types and learn how to respond effectively to a variety of hazardous incidents, WMD and terrorist events. |
|
The hazardous Materials : Awareness program has been developed to address 29 CFR 1910.120 and the current edition of NFPA 472 requirements for hazardous Materials Awareness first Responder. The Student will learn NON-Intervention Tactics for responding to a hazardous Materials Release. |
|
The Hazardous Materials: Operations program has been developed to address 29 CFR 1910.120 and the current edition of NFPA 472 requirements for hazardous Materials Operations first Responder. The Student will learn Defensive Tactics for responding to a hazardous Materials Release, Including: hazard Identification, Scene Safety, Basic personal protective
Equipment, and Emergency Decontamination. |
|
This course will prepare hazardous materials responders within State and local emergency response agencies to respond and operate safely at weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and hazardous materials (HazMat) incidents in an efficient manner consistent with established guidelines.
The course will challenge participants to develop a systematic approach to managing a HazMat/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.

|
The hazardous Materials Specialist Course series contains specific courses that relate to various need for the responder SRI has specific courses geared to aid the responder in establishing proficiency in a variety of areas such as: Chlorine Response, Ammonia Response, Radiological, WMD/CBRNE Specialist, and Instrumentation just to name a few. PREREQUISITES: HM 103 |
|
This two-day training program was designed to provide first Responder: Operations (FRO) trained personnel with the knowledge and skills to perform technical, emergency and mass decontamination. Training FRO personnel with this course frees up the Hazmat technicians to perform additional downrange tasks. This program is at the operations level and complies
with training requirements for personnel as contained in OSHA’s 29 CFR 1910.120 (HAZWOPER Standard).
|
|
This training course consists of activities which reinforce the concepts presented throughout the Hazmat training section. and use of specific monitoring equipment used by different agencies to provide information and decision making on the scene. FIe use several types of equipment to perform this course depending on your jurisdiction and teams capabilities. This course can be modified to train students on your specific tools from HAPSITE/GCMS and direct reading instruments to standard colorimetric devices. FIe have added ION SCIENCE equipment certifications to these courses as needed by specific locations.

This course is a careful examination of emergency medical response to the chemically contaminated victim. Emphases are on the different facets of medical sector and how they fit into the incident management system, toxicology, information resources, the selection of chemical protective clothing, toxidromes, treatment modalities, and decontamination. This course
is designed for paramedics and nurses who have the potential to come into contact with victims of a hazardous materials incident.

fire and emergency medical services are frequently the first on the scene at a clandestine drug lab when there is a fire, explosion, or chemical release. This class will cover the physical conditions, human activities, and hazardous materials commonly found at clandestine drug labs in a variety of locations. The focus will be on discovering the presence of the lab before responders are exposed to risk. Topics covered will include applicable laws and regulations, understanding and cooperating with law enforcement, and specific actions that reduce risk to responders and to the public. PREREQUISITES: HM 101 |
|
This class will examine the actions available to, or mandated for, operations-level responders, such as planning, training, response, command, control mitigation, documentation, critique, and follow-up. Topics covered will include response guidelines and practices; typical methamphetamine drug lab hazards (chemical site and human); resource and practices to determine high-risk (hot) and low-risk (safe) zones, actions, and probable changes at drug labs; and team development of a response plan for a case study, including command, isolation, decon, triage mitigation, working with a drug task force, transfer to technical level operations, and documentation. PREREQUISITES: HM 102 & HM 108 |
|
These include: hands-on training in safe response, management and cleanup or clandestine drug laboratory and clandestine drug laboratory hazardous waste disposal sites. FIE also address: Advanced hazard Identification, Monitoring Equipment, Scene Safety, Scene Security, personal protective Equipment (selection and use), and Technical and Emergency Decontamination. Organizational specific requirements can also be added to the course as needed. Prerequisites: HM 103 & HM 109 |
|
The Hazmat Sampling course is intended to prepare hazardous materials (HazMat) teams within local and State emergency response agencies to safely and effectively conduct public safety operations at known or suspected weapons of mass destruction (WMD) incident scenes. These response operations will be conducted in a manner consistent with Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) guidelines for crime scene management. The procedures used during the public safety sampling operations should also be in compliance with Occupational Safety and health Administration (OSHA) 29 Code of federal Regulations (CfR) 1910.120 (q). Prerequisites: HM 103 |
|
This course is specifically designed for workers who are involved in clean-up operations, voluntary clean-up operations, emergency response operations, and storage, disposal, or treatment of hazardous substances or uncontrolled hazardous waste sites. Prerequisites: None |
|
This course covers a wide range of topics these include: Managing Scene Safety, personal protective Equipment Safety Concerns, Crew Integrity and Accountability, Site Safety plan Construction (Review and Interpretation), Injury and Exposure Documentation, Medical Surveillance planning and post Incident Review Requirements. Additional topics also include: Incident Over-site for Safe Chemical field Analysis and Monitoring; Risk Management and Overall Incident Safety principles; Departmental and personal Legal Liabilities; Safety Briefings (Content, format, Delivery and Review) along with practical field exercises. Prerequisites: HM 102 |

This 1 to 2-week course is designed to prepare the responder to function safely at the scene of a hazardous materials incident by understanding the potential hazards. This is accomplished by gaining recognition of chemical nomenclature and basic principles of chemistry in order to assess risks to responders and the public. The course seeks to convey to first responders or prevention personnel a sound understanding of the basic chemistry of hazardous materials to permit them to correctly assess the threat posed by hazardous materials incidents that may occur accidentally or intentionally. problem-solving sessions and interactive discussion cover topics such as salts and inorganic nonsalts, hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon derivatives, and hydrocarbon radicals. Applying the science of chemistry to thermodynamics, volatility, and combustion provides real-world opportunities. An understanding of basic chemistry is helpful to receive maximum benefit from the course. |
