1
00:00:03,259 --> 00:00:07,110
So today we're on Southwest Oklahoma 

2
00:00:07,119 --> 00:00:09,909
State University in one of the dorms . 

3
00:00:09,970 --> 00:00:13,630
The scenario is a student discovered a 

4
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,430
lab set ups . Fire department 

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,662
responded , they discovered that it was 

6
00:00:19,662 --> 00:00:21,940
a hazmat situation and then they 

7
00:00:21,950 --> 00:00:24,172
escalated to request the support of the 

8
00:00:24,172 --> 00:00:26,283
civil support team to help and assist 

9
00:00:26,283 --> 00:00:28,520
and respond and detect and identify any 

10
00:00:28,530 --> 00:00:29,808
hazards on the scene . 

11
00:00:33,099 --> 00:00:35,310
So we're working with the , the 63rd 

12
00:00:35,319 --> 00:00:38,790
civil support team today um for a mock 

13
00:00:38,819 --> 00:00:42,709
uh hazmat incident on campus . Um So we , 

14
00:00:42,750 --> 00:00:45,209
we went for like a real life situation . 

15
00:00:45,439 --> 00:00:47,272
So if that call happened here in 

16
00:00:47,272 --> 00:00:49,383
Weatherford , we responded , fire ems 

17
00:00:49,383 --> 00:00:51,550
police uh did what we could do for the 

18
00:00:51,550 --> 00:00:53,883
situation and then we went up the ranks , 

19
00:00:53,883 --> 00:00:56,979
got a hold of the 63rd and they're on 

20
00:00:56,990 --> 00:01:00,509
their way . The civil support team is 

21
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,631
an all hazards assessment team . They 

22
00:01:02,631 --> 00:01:06,459
can identify hazards . So they have , 

23
00:01:06,470 --> 00:01:08,830
they're all hazmat tech 22 man team . 

24
00:01:09,089 --> 00:01:11,730
They're all Hazmat technicians . They 

25
00:01:11,739 --> 00:01:14,150
come with decontamination , they come 

26
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,360
with a communication suite , they come 

27
00:01:16,370 --> 00:01:18,989
with a mobile analytical lab . We call 

28
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,120
it the and it it's a big laboratory on 

29
00:01:22,129 --> 00:01:25,949
wheels . Always a big team 

30
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,699
effort . Most of the responses that we 

31
00:01:28,709 --> 00:01:30,989
have involve law enforcement , fire 

32
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,000
departments . 

33
00:01:35,199 --> 00:01:37,540
I think the biggest thing about these 

34
00:01:37,550 --> 00:01:41,370
exercise is knowledge of what is 

35
00:01:41,379 --> 00:01:43,712
out there that is provided by the state . 

36
00:01:43,712 --> 00:01:46,410
And so , and a lot of first responders 

37
00:01:46,419 --> 00:01:49,000
in counties don't know that they have 

38
00:01:49,010 --> 00:01:52,180
this asset available to them if ever 

39
00:01:52,190 --> 00:01:54,459
needed . We try to build that 

40
00:01:54,470 --> 00:01:56,470
relationship with the community and 

41
00:01:56,470 --> 00:01:57,339
that civil support team .
