Our guideline

(see full document attached below)

This guideline provides a basic analysis of the role by taking into consideration the following areas:

• hazards and risks
• identification
• equipment and response safety considerations for fire, rescue, and other emergency response
• tactics.

This guideline is intended for use by AFAC Members, notably Australian and New Zealand emergency service agencies and operational personnel. This guideline can also be used by vehicle recovery personnel, police, vehicle storage locations and other secondary responders.

This document has been prepared by the AFAC Alternative and Renewable Energy Technologies (ARET) Working Group for the Urban Operations Group. This has been developed in consultation with SES Operations Group, Rescue Technical Group, Community Safety Group, HAZMAT & CBRN Technical Group, Built Environment and Planning Technical Group and Fleet Technical Group. 

AFAC also acknowledges the work of the external Alternate Energy Doctrine Working Group.
