Study Notes
Passport System Accountability
- Passport accountability is crucial during incidents, ensuring all personnel are tracked.
- Can be terminated once fire is reported "under control."
- A Personnel Accountability Report (PAR) must be obtained for all crews before termination.
Command Decision-Making
- Command assesses the scene using risk management principles to decide on the passport system's continuation or termination.
- Factors influencing this decision include visibility conditions and potential hazards still present at the scene.
Impaired Visibility and Hazards
- If visibility is poor or significant hazards remain, Command may extend the use of the passport system beyond the initial control report.
- Extended use is vital for safety in high-risk environments.
Post-Incident Responsibilities
- After incident termination, Company Officers and crewmembers are responsible for ensuring the passport/pouch is accurate.
- All passports need to be returned to the apparatus’s designated area (dash) after the incident is concluded.
