CBRN Safety 049
CBRN Safety 049 : Chapter I - Overview: (5) General Planning Considerations for CBRN Response: (A) Planning Considerations Regarding Hazard Effects: Planning considerations for responding to CBRN incidents and requests for assistance (RFAs) are influenced by a variety of factors, including USG policy decisions, lessons learned from responses to previous incidents, capability limitations, time, current military operations, studies and analyses, modeling and simulation, live-agent tests and experiments, as well as analysis and exercise of national planning scenarios. Military planners need to be able to translate military analysis capabilities for use in a CBRN CM response. (1) The planning process begins with determining and assessing potential CBRN responses with respect to the end state the supported combatant commander (CCDR) plans to achieve. The developed response includes standing contingency plans and procedures to determine what forces and capabilities are required in support of RFAs. Accidents may occur at chemical plants, nuclear power plants, or other facilities (to include those on DOD installations) that have the potential for release of CBRN material, or they may occur during the transportation of TIMs. Intentional acts include use of CBRN materials by adversaries, sabotage, and acts of terrorism. CBRN materials present hazards that can be both immediate and delayed. In some instances the delayed effects can cause significant problems for joint forces and may alter planned operations. In all cases, the setting and managing of operational exposure guide (OEG) by the operational commander is a key requirement in protecting forces
