Across

2 The act of directing, ordering, and controlling resources by virtue of explicit legal,
agency, or delegated authority
4 The portion of a rocket or missile intended to be explosive or lethal
8 Equipment designed to protect the wearer from heat and hazardous materials
contacting the skin or eyes (2 words)
11 The relative amount of a substance when combined or mixed with other
substances
12 The location at which the primary command functions are executed (3 words)
17 Personnel with special skills who are activated only when needed (2 words)
18 A compressible compound or element with no specific volume that assumes the
shape of the container
19 Indication of the acidity or alkalinity of a substance
20 A functional division
22 A container into which a substance is poured or pressed to create a desired shape
25 An alkaline or caustic substance that forms hydroxide ions in water
27 The weight of an unloaded vehicle or an empty container
29 That function of an overall incident command system that deals with the actual
mitigation of a hazardous materials incident (2 words)
31 A solid, mechanically produced particle with a size ranging from submicroscopic
to macroscopic
32 A safety relief device in the form of a plug of a low melting metal (2 words)

Down

1 A railcar with a sloping floor that discharges dry loads through a bottom hinged
door
3 A corrosive compound that serves as a rapid proton donor and thus breaks down
the molecular structure of another material rapidly
4 Division 4.3 materials that react when exposed to water or humidity (2 words)
5 Temporary walls constructed to halt the flow of a liquid substance
6 Trailer chassis consisting of a rigid frame and coupling devices used to transport
a container on a wheeled vehicle (2 words)
7 A single exposure or repeated exposures to a hazardous substance in a short time.
Characterized by rapid severity and limited duration
9 The combination of facilities, equipment, procedures, and communications
operating within a common organizational structure with responsibility for the
management of assigned stated objective pertaining to an incident (3 words)
10 That organization element having functional responsibility for a specific incident

21 A gas that when compressed into a container remains in gas and not liquid form
(2 words)
23 The process of systematically analyzing a situation, developing relevant
information, and informing appropriate command authority of viable
alternatives for selection of the most effective combination of available resources
to meet specific objectives
24 Inert materials used to absorb liquid contaminants. Materials commonly include
corn cobs, diatomaceous earth, and sand
26 The method of deploying personnel and equipment at a HazMat incident, to
perform certain tactical objectives in order to accomplish the strategic goal
28 To give a shape to a substance by pouring a liquid substance into a mold and
letting it harden or cure
30 The identification number for a specific chemical compound as assigned by the
American Chemical Society's Abstract Service
