▪Fast Attack IC should attempt to review & revise
- when does the Incident Commander review and revise the Incident Management Functions
Principles-
the IC must conduct a review of the incident management functions. If there are deficiencies, the functions must be reviewed and corrective action put in place.
The IC may delegate review and revision to another officer.
Stationary Command IC-
A stationary command IC must review and revise:-
as soon as possible after transferring to stationary command position.
At regular intervals thereafter.
When incident phase changes - ie after life at risk or expanding phase.
Fast Attack IC-
A fast attack IC has reduced capacity to review and revise but should still attempt to do so.
Escalation-
If incident is escalated, IC must review and revise as soon as possible after Operations Section is established.
- what are the objectives that the IAP must address for all incidents
▪To save and protect lives
▪To prevent the incident from expanding beyond a deliberately chosen boundary
▪To minimise further consequences of the incident on the community
- when does a side become a sector

- what are 7 ways of achieving accountability at incidents
- the IC has overall responsibility for accountability - ie knowing the location and function of each resource
- Accountability can be delegated by the IC as per the incident structure
- Every person at the incident must know who they are accountable to and , if relevant, who they are accountable for
- All resources must move through a standard accountability cycle as they move into, through, and out of the incident
- Every officer and commander at the incident must be able to provide a personnel accountability report (PAR) for those they are directly supervising at all times.
- As far as possible, crews should remain intact. Where a commander with a crew is assigned a role not requiring a crew, the incident structure must continue to account for that crew- e.g. by re-assigning the crew to another officer or appointing a crew member as commander
- Every person at the incident must behave in a manner that ensures that they can be accounted for at all times. They must never freelance.
- what actions are required to De-escalate an incident
▪Strategic & tactical levels scaled back, delegated functions handed back to the IC.
▪Only the IC can release resources.
▪Rehab resources before departure.
▪Before a crew leaves the hazard zone, crew commanders should conduct a short ‘hot’ debrief.
▪When FRNSW duties complete, IC to handover the site to another agency or owner.
▪When FRNSW involvement at the incident ends, IC must inform FireCom.
▪Command is only terminated when the last resource leaves the incident.
- when developing objectives, strategies and tactics at a structure fires what are your considerations.
▪The response time for requested support
▪The requirements for relief crews and refreshments
▪Whether a change of shift might be necessary

- what are the hazards associated with ISP
▪EPS melts and flows like a liquid. It is highly flammable, inducing rapid fire spread, which is undetectable with thermal imaging cameras and can spread to areas remote from the fire origin.
▪Panel delamination, where the hot metal panel skins bow and open up, rapidly increases the rate of fire spread, which heats the ceiling void, creates secondary pool fires from melted EPS, and causes panels to collapse
▪There is an increased risk of flashover and backdraught.
▪Large volumes of toxic, thick, black, acrid smoke are produced.
▪Sudden, loss of structural integrity may cause substantial building collapse.
- what are the two types of ISP
- Frame-supported - the ISP is part of the external wall and/or roof, attached directly to a steel frame and often protected by tilt slabs, bricks or iron sheeting, disguised the presences of ISPs
- Freestanding - the ISPs are assembled into a standalone structure inside a larger building, often creating a large void above. The structure may be supported by mechanical fastenings to the building’s ceiling, e.g. a small cold store in a supermarket.
- hazards associated with ISP’s
▪ISP’s can delaminate and ignite gasses below the panels
▪Fire can drop behind firefighters from delaminated ISPs
▪ISPs can conceal ceiling fire from TIC
▪Lateral fire spread within ceiling space
▪Fire may appear to be confined to room/s of origin
- what are signs of structural collapse
▪Cracks or bulges in a building's walls ▪Sagging floors and pulling out of walls ▪Columns buckling ▪Displaced columns ▪Dropped arches
- what are the correct actions to be taken in the disposal of sharps
▪Do not touch the syringe before obtaining the designated equipment
▪Do not attempt to handle the syringe with bare hands
▪Obtain the designated equipment and PPE, which should include firefighting boots or other appropriate closed footwear, disposable gloves under firefighting gloves, a sealable, puncture-resistant container or approved clinical waste container
▪Take the sharps container to the syringe
▪Open the container and place on a stable, level surface. Do not hold the container because a misdirected needle may contact the hand or forearm and result in a needle stick injury
▪Using a gloved hand, pick up the syringe, at the opposite end of the needle.
▪Carefully place the syringe into the container, needle first. Obtain a larger or new container if the syringe does not fit
▪Seal the container.
▪Dispose of the syringe container should be made at the local hospital or ambulance stations.
- What is the correct procedure when dealing with PPC treated with Proban
▪Whenever possible store PPC treated with Proban in a well ventilated area
▪When removing PPC treated with Proban from a confined space such as a plastic bag, open in a well ventilated area, then wait a short time to allow for accumulated gases to dissipate.

- What are the considerations for a LPG leak
▪Approach all LPG tanks and cylinders from upwind only.
▪Immediately remove all persons in the vicinity of a gas vapour cloud.
▪Establish a hot zone.
▪Wear fire fighting uniform and BA whilst making an approach to, or working in areas suspected of containing gas.
▪Avoid entering the gas vapour cloud, and only do so under the protection of water sprays.
▪Do not approach a tank or cylinder in a direct line to the pressure relief valve.
▪Where a major leak is present, position two charged lines of 70 mm hose in a protected area, ready for fire protection.
▪Position a back up crew , with a charged spray branch, to provide fire protection for the forward crew.
▪A crew utilising two spray branches, to disperse any leaking gas, is to approach the tank and access the leak. Where safe to do so, the crew is to shut off the leak by an appropriate means.
▪Ice formed by leaking liquid LPG and creating a temporary seal is not to be hosed.
▪If unable to stop the leak, direct water sprays across the path of the vapour cloud and disperse gas toward a safe location, paying attention to low lying areas where gas may accumulate.
▪Prevent gas or liquid LPG from entering drains, basements, etc, by whatever means are available.
▪Liquid contact with skin will result in freeze burns or frostbite. Use thermal gloves if it is necessary to operate valves or touch metal components.
- What are the distances required for an LPG fire

- what are the considerations for an LPG fire
The priorities are to:-
▪Evacuate unnecessary persons
▪Cool flame impinged on heated tanks and cylinders
▪Control leaks by closing appropriate valves
▪Extinguish fires external to the tank causing flame impingement or heating.
When approaching a vessel:-
▪Approach from the sides of the tank or cylinder only wear BA whilst doing so
▪Approach behind the protection of water sprays
▪Do not approach in a direct line to the pressure relief valve.
- What are the considerations for a LPG Motor Vehicle leaks and fires
▪Fully assess the situation before taking any action
▪Wear BA in addition to the fire fighting uniform
