Clandestine labs that manufacture drugs or explosives may be
encountered virtually anywhere. They can range from complex
operations employing scientific equipment and exotic chemicals or
simply kitchen utensils and chemicals purchased at a local grocery
or hardware store. Regardless of their form, the key to detecting
clandestine labs is the ability to recognize the combinations of
equipment and chemicals that constitute the lab in the first place.
Te first line of defense against the manufacturers—who supply the
drug trade and terrorists with their tools of destruction—is law
enforcement, the fire services, and other emergency responders. The
Field Guide to Clandestine Laboratory Identification and
Investigation, Second Edition provides the information necessary to
recognize operations that produce these deadly brews. As with the
prior edition, the book has sections covering the chemicals and
equipment commonly used in the manufacture of drugs and explosives.
They are grouped in a manner that allows the emergency responder to
quickly identify common combinations of equipment and chemicals
that could potentially be used to manufacture drugs or explosives.
Since many clandestine manufacturing operations use commonly
available materials that have legitimate uses, the author outlines
how to quickly assessing and recognizing key indicators associated
with clandestine laboratory operations. Sections within the book
address information concerning both the hazards associated with
those chemicals involved and the personal protective equipment
needed to abate the hazards. In addition, documentation
requirements, field-testing, and sampling procedures are detailed
for use once the operation has been seized and secured.
Reproducible worksheets are provided to either be used as, or
supplement, the on-scene investigators’ field notes and assist in
providing a standardized manner to objectively record of the
information about the crime scene. The ability to identify the
tools used to manufacture contraband drugs and explosives is a key
element in the battle against drug abuse and terrorism, making the
Field Guide to Clandestine Laboratory Identification and
Investigation, Second Edition an indispensible resource to
responders and investigators alike.
