Does anyone have a copy of their departments SOPs for responding and establishing safe zones on highway incidents in accordance with the MUTCD guidelines? I am looking to acquire other copies to see that our highway safety guidelines are appropriate and in depth enough to provide a good depth of knowledge and safety for our fire fighters.

The way I see it, those should be controlled because of the possibility of a terror attack. I mean the bad guys think we as firefighters are an enemy also. I would call around before I would expect someone to just give them to you...Take care.

Gentlemen,

Are terrorists worried about how far back we put the first traffic cone down on the pavement?

firecar1, this is the protocol my agency uses: http://www.i95coalition.org/PDF/Meetings/CIM/I-95%20Corridor%20Coalition%202005.pdf We didn't even bother to customize it (deleting references to Calgary FD, etc.), it's so well written; although I suppose you could.
