Emergency operations need to be designed to allow law, fire, and medical vehicles and personnel access for mass decontamination operations.

The Contamination Control Area is located on the boundary of the Cold Zone and Warm Zone and used by the rescue and decontamination personnel to enter and exit the Warm Zone. There are several processing stations, a resupply and refurbishment area, and a contaminated waste storage area. Runoff from decontamination operations must be controlled or contained to prevent further site contamination.

Casualty Collection Point is a critical element to save lives.
