Which of the following statements would be relevant when dealing with a suspicious package?

  1. Do not open the item

  2. Do turn off air handling equipment in the area of the item and possibly the building

  3. Do not place the item in water or any other liquid

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

All the statements, A: 'Do not open the item', B: 'Do turn off air handling equipment in the area of the item and possibly the building', and C: 'Do not place the item in water or any other liquid', are correct procedures when dealing with a suspicious package. Option A: 'Do not open the item', is correct because typically a suspicious package could potentially contain a harmful substance or explosive device. Opening the item could unnecessarily expose you or others to the potential hazard. Option B: 'Do turn off air handling equipment in the area of the item and possibly the building', is also an important safety measure. If the package contains a biological or chemical hazard, air handling equipment could potentially circulate these harmful substances throughout the building, putting more people at risk. Option C: 'Do not place the item in water or any other liquid', is true because this could inadvertently trigger a potential explosive device, or if the package contains water-reactive substances, it could lead to a chemical reaction. Therefore, all three procedures should be taken into consideration when dealing with a suspicious package, hence why option D: 'All of the above' is correct.
