==Background==
*Explosive incident response is divided among three stages:
===Pre-Blast Incidents===
*Refers to an explosive device that has not yet detonated. Pre-blast perimeters should be established based on local protocols, procedures, and guidelines.
===Post-Blast Response===
*Refers to an incident involving a device that has already exploded. Decisions are based on the destruction caused by the blast (i.e., the amount of explosives used). First, decide where to establish the inner perimeter; perimeter decisions should include the possibility of additional explosive devices.

*[[Mass casualty incident triage]] can then begin, which may require rescues from a collapsed building.
===Continuing Explosive Incident===
These are incidents where a threat from additional explosive devices exists. Responders should seek shelter and safe distance until area is deemed safe for triage and rescue.
