Question

Module 2 Discussion: Investigating the Accident

Select a Hazardous Materials Accident Report of your choice from the NTSB accident investigation database NTSB Accident Docket Search.

Links to an external site.

Provide your colleagues with a summary of the accident from your perspective, as the accident investigator. Knowing what you do now about collecting evidence and interviewing, describe how you would go about performing this investigation, including:

• Initial phases of the investigation
• What types of evidence you might collect and why (remember the 4Ps)
• Who would you have interviewed about this accident and why

Remember, your interview questions should be open-ended so that the key informant(s) can tell "their story" of what occurred. 

Reply to one of your colleagues with a suggestion on additional evidence to be collected, persons to be interviewed, or other ideas that might enhance the quality of the investigation.
