Law Enforcement units are required to undertake activities including tactical operations, search and render safe devices or persons within hazardous CBRN environments. These hazardous environments may range from enclosed and open spaces that include : a. a chemical vapour hazard only, to a combination of a vapour hazard and liquid or solid contact hazard;b. Biological hazard that may be aerosol, solid, or liquid; andc. radiological or nuclear hazard that is vapour, liquid or solid. The likely exposure of the operator is to low levels of vapour or liquid CBRN hazards, where concentrations are below the Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health (IDLH) permitting the use of Air Purifying Respirators (APR).
