Intro To Green Tables-initial Isolation And Protective Action Distances Flashcards
The _____ defines and area SURROUNDING the incident in which persons may be exposed to dangerous (upwind) and life-threatening (downwind) concentrations of material.
Initial Isolation Zone
The ______ defines an area DOWNWIND from the incident in which persons may become incapacitated and unable to take protective action and/or incur serious or irreversible health effects.
Protective Action Zone
Table 1 provides specific guidance for ___ and ___ spills occurring ___ or ____.
Small and large
Day or night
_______ suggests distances useful to protect people from vapors resulting from spills involving dangerous goods that are considered toxic by inhalation(TIH)(PIH in the US).
Table 1-initial isolation and protective action distances
The ___ bordered guide for a material clearly indicates under the section EVACUATION-Fire, the evacuation distance required to protect against ______ hazard of a ____container.
Orange-bordered pages
Fragmentation hazard of a large container
For worst-case scenarios involving the instantaneous release of the entire contents of a package the distances may increase substantially. For such events, _____ of the initial isolation and protective action distances is appropriate in the absence of other information.
Doubling
I’m more than one tank car containing TIH materials involved in the incident is leaking, LARGE SPILL distances may need to be ______.
Increased
For a material with a protective action distance of 11.0+km (7.0+ miles), the actual distance may be larger in certain ________.
