Emergency actions are taken at the early stage of a disaster with the purpose of preventing injuries or loss of
life and:

A.
determining the extent of property damage.

B.
preserving environmental conditions.

C.
ensuring orderly plan activation.

D.
reducing the extent of operational damage.

Explanation:

During an incident, emergency actions should minimize or eliminate casualties and damage to the business operation, thus reducing business interruptions. Determining the extent of property damage is not the consideration; emergency actions should minimize, not determine, the extent of the damage. Protecting/
preserving environmental conditions may not be relevant. Ensuring orderly plan activation is important but not as critical as reducing damage to the operation.
