The correct answer is "the Theatre FAM on the 1st of every month." This means that after completing the DD form 1532-1, the responsibility lies with the Vector Control Department to submit electronic copies of the form to the Theatre FAM specifically on the 1st day of each month.

Sanitation is the most important step in a successful Filth Fly program because it involves removing or minimizing the conditions that attract flies, such as food sources, breeding sites, and waste materials. By practicing good sanitation, such as proper waste management and cleaning, the fly population can be significantly reduced. This step is crucial as it addresses the root cause of the fly problem, preventing their attraction and reproduction, which ultimately leads to a more effective and long-lasting control of filth flies.

ULV treatments for mosquitoes and sandflies should only be performed under certain conditions. These conditions include: multiple complaints of bites in one area, being qualified through Preventive Medicine surveillance when thresholds have been exceeded, and receiving approval from the onsite Preventive Medicine Unit (PMU) in writing via email or specific memo. Additionally, a dip should be taken by KBR Vector Control personnel and if the number of larvae is 10 or more, or if light trapping indicates 15 or more sandflies. The timing for these treatments is suggested to be at 2200 hrs when most personnel will be asleep in their CHU.

The correct answer is "will be secured in locked compartments at all times." This means that all pesticide carried on a vehicle must be stored in locked compartments to ensure safety and prevent unauthorized access. Storing pesticides in locked compartments helps to minimize the risk of accidents, theft, or misuse. It is a standard practice to secure pesticides in locked compartments to comply with regulations and protect the environment and public health.

The correct answer is by burial 1 meter under ground. This means that the animal carcasses received from the Vet or Vet Rep should be disposed of by burying them 1 meter below the ground. This method ensures that the carcasses are properly contained and do not pose any health or environmental risks.

The additional fit test of a Vector Controllers respirator must be conducted when physical changes are noted that may change the respirator's fit, such as facial scarring, dental changes, and obvious changes in body/face weight. This is necessary because these physical changes can affect the seal of the respirator, compromising its effectiveness in protecting the wearer from harmful substances. Conducting the fit test every 6 months ensures that any changes in the wearer's physical appearance are accounted for and that the respirator continues to provide a proper fit.

According to the USF-I IPM Plan, the approval for pesticide use is granted by the USF-I Pest Management Consultant (PMC). This means that the PMC has the authority to approve the use of pesticides in accordance with the plan's guidelines. The Preventive Medicine department and the Theatre Vector Control Manager may have roles in the decision-making process, but the final approval lies with the PMC. The EPA, although an important regulatory body, is not specifically mentioned in the context of pesticide approval within the USF-I IPM Plan.

The correct answer is Integrated Pest Management. IPM is an approach to pest control that focuses on using a combination of techniques such as biological control, habitat manipulation, and the judicious use of pesticides to manage pests effectively while minimizing harm to the environment. This approach emphasizes the prevention of pest problems through practices such as crop rotation, proper sanitation, and the use of resistant plant varieties. Integrated Pest Management is widely used in agriculture and other pest control settings as a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to relying solely on pesticides.

The initial step when implementing an IPM (Integrated Pest Management) Program is surveillance/inspection. This involves carefully monitoring and inspecting the area to identify any existing pest problems or potential pest threats. By conducting surveillance and inspections, the IPM program can gather valuable information about the pests present, their behavior, and the extent of the infestation. This information will then inform the development of an effective pest management plan, which may include physical control, chemical control, and sanitation measures. However, surveillance/inspection is the crucial first step in the process.

When there are no conducive conditions or pest activities encountered, the Vector Control personnel will complete the necessary documentation and then provide a briefing to the Point of Contact (POC). This suggests that the personnel will ensure all necessary paperwork is completed and then inform the POC about the situation.

The correct answer is "single use vehicles and clearly marked as Vector Control Vehicles". This answer is the most appropriate because it ensures that the Vector Control vehicles are used exclusively for their intended purpose and are easily identifiable. By being single use vehicles, it prevents them from being used for other purposes or by other departments. Additionally, by being clearly marked as Vector Control Vehicles, it helps to maintain a clean and orderly appearance and ensures that they are easily recognizable as vehicles used for vector control operations.

The correct answer is the second option: Your Site DCMA, QA/QC, Vector Control Site Lead, Vector Control Supervisor, Area Vector Control Supervisor and Theatre Vector Control Manager. This is because these individuals are directly involved in the vector control operations and would require a copy of the document for reference and coordination purposes. The other options include additional personnel who may not necessarily need a copy of the document for their specific roles.

The responsibility of a Vector Controller as it relates to Feral Animal Control includes setting and checking traps, delivering any trapped animals to a Vet or Vet Representative, having the Vet rep sign the trapping log, and after euthanasia, transporting the bagged animal carcass for disposal in accordance with the USF-I IPM Plan. This answer accurately summarizes all the necessary tasks and procedures involved in the role of a Vector Controller for Feral Animal Control.

The Mayor's Cell is responsible for self-help programs in housing areas. This means that they oversee and manage initiatives aimed at improving the living conditions and facilities in residential areas. They may coordinate efforts to address maintenance issues, provide resources for residents to enhance their homes, or implement community development projects. The Mayor's Cell plays a crucial role in ensuring that housing areas are well-maintained and provide a safe and comfortable environment for residents.

The correct answer is to report to the Mayor Cell and provide them with a copy of the SCS. This suggests that the Mayor Cell is the appropriate authority to report to in cases where the POC is not available. The SCS is used to document the findings, and providing a copy to the Mayor Cell ensures that they are aware of the situation and can take appropriate action.

According to the USF-I IPM Plan, the treatment of occupied spaces with liquid, dust, or aerosol pesticide formulations is prohibited. This means that it is not allowed to use these types of pesticides in areas where people are present. This restriction ensures the safety and well-being of individuals by preventing potential health risks and adverse effects that may arise from pesticide exposure.

According to the USF-I IPM Plan, the responsibility for surveillance of medically important pests lies with Preventive Medicine assets.

According to the USF-I IPM Plan, the responsibility for surveillance of sandflies lies with Preventive Medicine.

Pesticide Storage Facilities must not have a floor drain because it can lead to the contamination of groundwater and other water sources. If pesticides were to spill or leak, they could easily enter the drain and contaminate the surrounding environment. Therefore, it is important for these facilities to have proper containment measures in place to prevent any accidental release of pesticides into the environment.

In the absence of veterinary support, the responsibility to support animal control operations through euthanasia falls on the Mayor's Cell. This implies that the Mayor's Cell is expected to take charge and carry out the necessary euthanasia procedures for animal control.

The correct answer is "approval from the PMC is required in writing via e-mail approval or specific memo." This is because Avitrol is an Avicide, which is a substance used to kill birds. The PMC (Pest Management Coordinator) is responsible for managing pest control measures, including the use of Avicides. Therefore, their approval is necessary before using Avitrol. This approval must be obtained in writing, either through e-mail approval or a specific memo, to ensure proper documentation and communication of the decision.

Before performing any Herbicide treatment, it is necessary to obtain approval from the Pest Management Consultant (PMC) in writing, either through e-mail approval or a specific memo. This ensures that the treatment is carried out under the guidance and expertise of the PMC, who can assess the situation and provide necessary instructions or precautions. This approval process helps maintain proper communication and documentation regarding the treatment and ensures that it is conducted safely and effectively.

The correct answer is "secured in a single, black, non-porous plastic bag." This is because a bio-hazard bag is specifically designed to contain and prevent the spread of potentially infectious materials, such as the carcass of a euthanized animal. Using a single, black, non-porous plastic bag ensures that the carcass is contained and that any potential biohazards are properly managed. Double bagging in any plastic bag available or securing the carcass in a cage may not provide the same level of containment and biohazard management.
