Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Contamination Avoidance Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures for Military and Civilian Agencies:  This publication provides tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) for conducting chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) avoidance. This book presents comprehensive TTP for passive and active avoidance measures. Users of this manual will be civilian agencies, non-CBRN person now performing collateral duties as an additional duty CBRN officer and military personnel at the tactical through strategic levels. The purpose of this publication is to provide key agencies, staffs, and military personnel with a key reference for planning and conducting CBRN avoidance. It provides the tools for CBRN defense personnel to implement active and passive CBRN avoidance measures in support the decision making process. It also serves as a key source document for refining existing training support packages, training center exercises, and service school curricula.
