Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to provide law enforcement personnel with response guidelines and evidence gathering techniques that may be utilized when responding to an incident involving the use or threatened use of a weapon of mass destruction (WMD). The first part of the book addresses the actions to be taken by the first law enforcement personnel arriving at the scene of a WMD incident. The text examines the planning process in great detail, and the incident management process is also extensively reviewed. Tactical operations that may be necessary to arrest individuals or prevent a WMD incident are also discussed. The second part of the book is designed for the hazardous material trained investigator. The required training, equipment, and investigative procedures are clearly defined in this section, and detailed step-by-step instructions are provided for the collection of chemical, biological, and radiological evidence. In addition, investigative techniques are provided that will assist the criminal investigator in identifying and entering a facility suspected of manufacturing a weapon of mass destruction. Remote sampling techniques are provided to assist in gathering the probable cause for a search warrant. Also helpful to readers are the many illustrations and a glossary. It will be clear to the reader that this unique book represents the epitome of authoritativeness and comprehensiveness in the field of WMD response andinvestigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential for terrorist activities directed against United States (U.S.) citizens and interests worldwide has become an increasingly serious threat. In an effort to counter this threat, the U.S. Government has implemented a number of measures to enhance the Nation's ability to deter, prevent, respond to, and recover from terrorist activities within the United States, its territories, and possessions. The establishment of the Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)–Civil Support Team (CST) program is one of the measures that has been implemented to support the defense of the Homeland. The WMD-CST program mission is to support civil authorities at domestic chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosives (CBRNE) incident sites by identifying CBRNE agents and substances, assessing current and projected consequences, advising on response measures, and assisting with appropriate requests for additional support. This includes the intentional or unintentional release of CBRNE and natural or man-made disasters in the United States that result, or could result, in the catastrophic loss of life or property. As the “state governors' 911 forces for WMD,” WMD-CSTs provide direct support to the front lines of local, state, and federal emergency response organizations. WMD-CST operations are conducted primarily in civil environments—urban, rural, industrial, or suburban areas—and in hot or cold weather. WMD-CSTs currently operate within the United States, its territories, and possessions while in Title 10 U.S. Code (USC) or Title 32 USC status. This manual serves as the foundation for WMD-CST doctrine and focuses on the organization, mission, command and control (C2), and operations of the WMD-CST. It discusses employment concepts, planning considerations, capabilities, and the type of support that WMD-CSTs can provide during a response. This information should be shared with key decision makers at local, state, and federal levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has a long history for providing technology evaluation and training for military and other federal level Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) response agencies. Currently there are many federal organizations and commercial companies developing technologies related to detecting, assessing, mitigating and protecting against hazards associated with a WMD event. Unfortunately, very few locations exist within the United States where WMD response technologies are realistically field tested and evaluated using real chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive materials. This is particularly true with biological and radiological hazards. Related to this lack of adequate WMD, multi-hazard technology testing capability is the shortage of locations where WMD response teams can train using actual chemical, biological, and radiological material or highly realistic simulates. In response to these technology evaluation and training needs, the INL has assembled a consortium of subject matter experts from existing programs and identified dedicated resources for the purpose of establishing an all-hazards, WMD technology evaluation and training range. The author describes the challenges associated with creating the all-hazards WMD technology evaluation and training range and lists the technical, logistical and financial benefits of an all-hazards technology evaluation and training range. Current resources and capabilities for conducting all-hazard technology evaluation and training at the INL are identified. Existing technology evaluation and training programs at the INL related to radiological, biological and chemical hazards are highlighted, including successes and lessons learned. Finally, remaining gaps in WMD technology evaluation and training capabilities are identified along with recommendations for closing those gaps.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability of an agency to respond to and effectively manage a chemical WMD incident begins with the development of departmental plans, procedures, and training. Preparation for responding to a chemical incident should begin with modifying existing plans and procedures to consider and include WMD-specific operations. A chemical terrorist incident is different from a routine HAZMAT incident in that the terrorist incident: " Is deliberate in nature " Is a criminal act " Is designed to produce a large number of casualties " Is expected to result in a large number of fatalities " Will require mass numbers of people to be decontaminated This section outlines the issues and recommendations that departments should consider in advance of the actual occurrence of a chemical incident. These recommendations are based on the assumption that individuals have a basic knowledge of chemical agent awareness and emergency response operations. This information is provided as part of the NLD DPP city Train-the-Trainer program.
