exclusion zone / restricted zone

DEF – "hot zone": Area immediately surrounding a dangerous goods incident which extends far enough to prevent adverse effects from dangerous goods release to personnel outside the zone. This zone is also referred to as "exclusion zone" or "restricted zone" in other documents (NFPA 472). [Taken from CANUTEC emergency response guide for dangerous goods.] (TERMIUM Plus)
