20、s a framework within whichswiftwater/flood SAR operations shall be conducted.4.2 Every person, agency, and organization that responds to,or participates in, swiftwater/flood SAR operations shouldoperate within the framework established by this guide.4.3 This guide and the framework it establishes sh

21、ould beused in conjunction with established and authorized guidelinesand procedures mandated by an AHJ.4.4 The AHJ shall determine which personnel, agencies,and/or organizations are qualified and authorized to participatein swiftwater/flood SAR operations.4.5 This guide is to be used by individuals

22、and AHJ thatwish to perform swiftwater/flood SAR operations as part of theNIMS/ICS.4.6 This guide does not stand alone and must be used withthe referenced documents to safely and effectively performswiftwater/flood SAR operations.4.7 The AHJ will determine the evaluation process to assessthe extent

24、ency policies and procedures.4.9 Swiftwater/flood personnel should only perform activi-ties in the swiftwater environment after a thorough riskassessment and appropriate risk mitigation efforts (e.g. use ofpersonal protective equipment (PPE), restricting efforts toshore-based techniques, delaying a

25、recovery until more favor-able water conditions exist, etc.) have been performed, or at thevery least, should follow the appropriate federal, state, tribal,provincial, and local safety standards as they apply to activitiesin swiftwater environments.5.
