Summary: Fire Safety Simulation

Due to the high rate of illnesses, accidents and injuries in the industry, the organization further developed a hazard recognition program. This was greatly supported by the directives and the standards the organization drafted. The organization also set a safety and health program. This mainly depended on the credibility of management’s involvement in the program. This program provided for the inclusion of the employees in the program. The program also provided for the inclusion of the employees in the different decision making processes such as the safety and health decisions. The employees were also to be included in the decisions that involved change in the work site practices and conditions. The program addressed hazards despite failure by the government standard to regulate it (Brain Mass, 2010).

Prescribed fire, the burning of dead or non-living trees, an important subject to people because it makes them wonder the perks and the downsides of it, but the claim states, can prescribed fire needed or unneeded?

The debate over using prescribed fires or not to help our environment continues on. Although statistics are hard to come by, many people, including myself, believe that controlled fires are necessary to protect wildlife areas. Prescribed fires or controlled burns actually protect human communities from more dangerous uncontrolled wildfires. They also improve land for endangered and threatened species and actually promote the growth of plants. Many believe that these prescribed fires do more damage than good, conversely, my opinion is that they are wrong.

Latent heat of vaporization The heat that is absorbed when one gram of liquid is transformed into vapor at the boiling point under one atmosphere of pressure and the result is expressed in BTUs per pound or calories per gram.

If you went out one day and out of nowhere you find yourself in a life-or-death situation would it be your fault? People in a life-or-death situation should be held accountable for their actions because most of the time people know that if they do something that can put them in a life-or-death situation then something bad will happen but they still do it willingly. Another person might not agree with this claim and say that people should not be held accountable for their actions. The reason he or she might think this is because if when a person does face a life-or-death situation it might not be entirely their fault. The following reasons are examples of why my claim is stronger.

The hospital policy for fire drills requires one drill per shift per quarter. The audit shows that there are some compliancy concerns regarding the fire drills. During third shift, for the first and third quarters, no fire drill occurred. Also, there was no fire drill on the second shift during the fourth quarter. Obviously, there should be further study to determine the cause for the compliancy issue vs. staffing deficiencies during third shift. Additionally, each department will have a safety monitor assigned to ensure the fire drills occur as per hospital policy. The safety monitor will complete a form documenting the staff involved in the fire drill, date, and time the drill took place and will keep a copy in the safety manual to be inspected monthly.

On March 25, 1911, at 4:45 pm there was a fire that broke down at the triangle shirtwaist factory located in NYC Asch Building at 23-29 Washington Street were engulfed in flames. First, the fire started 8th floor and on to the 9th then 10th which was occupied by triangle waist company. Second, the fire killed 146 people and most of them were females between the ages of 15-25 years old. Lastly, the owners Harris and blanck were guilty of this crime in my opinion and the government didn’t help the victims of the fire in their company.

F- On December 13, during seventh hour in my communications class on a Tuesday seven of us, Me (Sunmi), Morgan, Brandi, Maya, Rachael, Caralee, and Laine gathered in order to have a fishbowl discussion about the mistreatment and exploitation of marine animals.The primary purpose of this discussion according to our teacher, Mr. Wolfe was for us to select a committee type, create a problem, and then hold a discussion where we attempt to solve the problem in 30 minutes.The aquatic life representations, create a problem- marine animals are being exploited, hold a discussion that and create a resolution in 30 minutes. The second purpose of this activity was to help us become aware of the roles we as individuals play

The rising number of high severity wildfires in California has significant ecological, economic, and health impacts. Many western American forests are adapted to frequent low severity fires. However, the majority of these forests, and particularly the mixed conifer forests of California, are not adapted to high intensity fires and do not possess fire resistance adaptations such as serotinous cones to protect seeds. Consequently, high severity fires have significant negative impacts on California forests, and the absence of low severity fires has considerably altered many fundamental ecosystem processes (Miller et al. 2008). Prior to 1900, low severity fires would burn every 6-15 years. Low severity fires are generally non-lethal, have minimal change to the overstory, and kill mainly small trees. In the past, these fires were started naturally by lightning, or by Native Americans who used low severity fires to manage the forests.

Fire district 13 is located in the forested valleys and steep foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range at the base of Mount St. Helens. Access to our district, primarily reached by one main county road, is limited. With automatic mutual aid to neighboring districts with, major rail, and freeway- interoperability is key. Located above the Cascadia Subduction zone, Clark County is due for a catastrophic earthquake. The area that includes fire district 13 is a transitional zone between unoccupied forest land and human development. Being a part of the wildland urban interface zone puts us at a higher risk for wildfires.

Severns was found guilty of starting the fire and was sentenced to seventeen years in prison. Prosecutors denied the ability of the aerosol cans to be the cause of the fire. However, after a video of aerosol cans bursting into flames was released, prosecutors admitted that the fire that took place in Severns gun shop could have been accidental. If the video was shown at the trial the outcome would have been different. Severns was offered a plea deal, but he refused the deal because he said he did not do it. I believe that Cameron is innocent. There is no where near enough evidence to prove him as guilty and the aerosol cans are very likely to be the cause of the fire. I do not think his outcome is fair, I believe they made a mistake for imprisoning

On the night of 21st June 1979, nearly six months before the Hastie fire, Rosabell Fenton was preparing for bed when she saw a figure of a man stood by her front door. The figure moved away when he became aware that he had been seen. She was convinced it was “Daft Peter”, who she knew and had shouted at earlier that day as he was loitering on her porch acting

Lincoln County fire departments responded to a fire in a mobile home at 1665 Wagner Bridge Road in Waldoboro during the early morning hours of Friday, April 22.

What occurred at Yarnell Hill was a travesty; many brave firefighters lost their lives that day. We must recognize our mistakes and learn from them; that is how we move forward. I am not here to inform you, the executives, on better ways to prevent fires. I am here to educate you on risk management strategies that you can implement into the USFS.

The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health will not change legislation regarding safety in the near future.
