Study Notes

No-Entry Zone Overview

A No-Entry Zone is established at incident sites to prevent access due to imminent hazards or dangerous conditions.
Protection of evidence is a critical reason for maintaining a No-Entry Zone.
Personnel on-site must be informed about the boundaries and significance of the No-Entry Zone.

Nighttime Operations

During operations at night, it is essential to illuminate the No-Entry Zone for visibility and safety.
