The Fire Department of Rimini Prepares for Emergencies

Even if in Italy there is no nuclear central, there could be situations of escape of toxic or radioactive substances. To prepare for such emergencies cases these days, the firefighters of Rimini attended a training coordinated by the master Dino Poggiali. For four days, all the staff will participate in emergency simulation. In a commune of the province, which could be Catolica, the toxic alarm will put firemen at test. An initial team of five people will have to rush and rescue injured and / or intoxicated people. This would be the Phase A of the intervention while the Phase B would be that of reaching the place where it has occurred the escape of substances, marking the 'red zone' where no one can neither enter nor transit. The team will take the toxic substance and seal in an airtight container that will be placed on the vehicle and then take it away. Meanwhile, the highly sensitive equipment will look for the slightest indication of toxic substances released. Of course, the core will work with special suits, mask and oxygen cylinder. The entire area and all the people who came into contact with toxic or radioactive will be cleaned and decontaminated.
