1. In an initial incident, a size-up is done to set the immediate incident objectives. The first responder to arrive must assume command and size-up the situation by determining:

Nature and magnitude of the incident | Hazards and safety concerns | Hazards facing response personnel and the public | Evacuation and warnings | Injuries and casualties | Need to secure and isolate the area | Initial priorities and immediate resource requirements | Location of Incident Command Post and Staging Area | Entrance and exit routes for responders
