Cities of Dublin and Pleasanton | Disaster Debris Management Plan | 2022 50 competing priorities beyond debris operations. The Incident Commander is responsible for managing these priorities and determining the response and recovery objectives. Debris management will be conducted as directed by the Incident Commander. Debris operations for a WMD/terrorism incident will be much different than disaster debris management for a natural disaster. Law enforcement agencies will have a much larger role in debris operations from a WMD/terrorism incident. Debris is considered evidence until the lead law enforcement agency has declared it clear of evidentiary possibilities. As such, debris must be securely handled, monitored, transported, and processed. Securing Debris as Evidence Typically, local law enforcement agency responsibilities will include establishing and securing a perimeter, controlling access to the site, escorting transported debris and assisting in the collection, preservation, and documentation of evidence. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) may engage the services of internal response assets to assist in evidence collection and management including laboratory analysis of evidence collected from the debris. Managing the Integrity of the Crime Scene Initial site security is initiated by the local response. A perimeter is established in the course of protecting the public and giving adequate space for response workers, equipment, and vehicles. This original perimeter will be maintained or possibly expanded by local law enforcement with regard to protecting the outer limits of the crime scene. Planning must begin early to strengthen this perimeter with physically durable materials such as chain link or other fencing. Perimeter Establishment and Enforcement For a crime scene of this magnitude, an inner and outer perimeter must be established and secured by local law enforcement agencies. Some initial sites may have adequate space to allow for evidence (debris) processing sites within the inner perimeter. In most cases, this is not possible, and arrangements must be made to transport evidence (debris) to an off-site location for processing. In this event, both inner and outer perimeters must also be established for any remote work sites associated with evidence processing and recovery. Inner Perimeter Security Requirements:  Identify a Site Safety Officer on-scene  Develop a site-specific HASP  Ensure all responders, including debris management personnel, are wearing appropriate PPE at all times  Establish a control point for logging name, date, time of entry, and vehicle  Establish an accountability system for inner perimeter responder safety Site Access and Credentialing:  Establish appropriate resources to provide for on-scene credentialing for all personnel  Establish a credentialing point outside of the outer perimeter  Ensure debris personnel have appropriate badging and credentials prior to arrival at the
