ABSTRACT

When entering the area, and all the time while present, proper identification by badge or card should be clearly visible. This usually consists of plastic cards worn on neck chains. Sometimes hats, fluorescent vests, and T-shirts are almost as important in sorting out the various players at the scene. Most important, of course is eliminating the incursion of strangers or media who should not be present. Before proceeding to the vicinity of the scene, request a review of the circumstances and the local environment.
