If you find a device, what action should you take?

• A. Establishing a secure perimeter around the device.
• B. Move the device to the control room
• C. Touch the device to confirm it's real
• D. Moving inmates toward the device

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is to create a safe exclusion zone around a found device. Establishing a secure perimeter immediately reduces the risk to people by keeping staff and inmates out of the potential blast area and gives responders a clear, controlled space to work. It helps prevent accidental triggers or disturbances from nearby activity and preserves the scene for investigation and disposal by trained technicians. Do not touch or move the device, and do not try to verify what it is by handling it. Move inmates away from the area as needed, and quickly notify supervisors and bomb disposal professionals so the scene can be managed safely.
