a. Risk of eye injury: An occasional to seldom initial probability with a catastrophic effect = high risk initially.  Control measures include but are not limited to: wear ballistic eye protection on firing line.

b. Risk of ear injury:  A likely to occasional initial probability with critical to catastrophic effect = high risk initially.  Control measures include but are not limited to: wear ear plugs on the live-fire ranges.

c. Risk of other injury from shrapnel, ricochet or direct hit from any weapon system whether ball, simunition, frangible or paintball. An occasional to seldom initial probability with a catastrophic potential effect = high risk initially.  Control measures include but are not limited to: maintain radio comms with Range Control, coordinate all hot/cold times with Range Control, wear proper PPE, observe range constraints (engagement field layout, obey left/right limits, stay inside designated paintball field), and be aware of what other units are doing on surrounding ranges.

d. Risk associated with wildlife: snake bite, airborne and animal-born diseases (hanta virus, lyme disease, west nile virus, rocky mountain spotted fever), shooting at wildlife, mountain lions and wildlife on the roadways.  An unlikely probability with mountain lions. Trying to shoot wildlife has a tendency to lure your fire into unsafe areas. Even if the wildlife on the roadway may not be damaging to your vehicle they may cause drivers to swerve or stop abruptly and increase the probability of an accident.  Disease from animals and snake bites are a moderate probability but have a greater effect.  Altogether, the initial probability would be occasional to seldom with a critical to moderate effect = moderate to high risk initially. Control Measures include but are not limited to: leave wildlife alone, obey speed limits, use bug repellant with DEET, stay away from standing water, stay away from rodent feces, and stay alert.

e. Risk of joint or bone injury due to rocky terrain and field work.  This has a likely initial probability and a moderate to critical effect = high risk initially.  Control measures include but are not limited to: recon of the training area, safety briefing, limit movements for daytime hours as much as possible, proper fitting of boots, ankle braces as appropriate, knee and elbow pads as available, review of mission and individual movement tactics.

f. Depending on the season: dehydration and sunburn or hypothermia and frostbite.  Occasional to seldom initial probability with a catastrophic effect = high risk initially.  Control measures include but are not limited to: come prepared; proper clothing, sunscreen, monitor water intake, proper rest, proper packing list and load plan (bring heaters).

g. Risk of starting or falling victim to wild land fire.  Depending on the season this has an initial likely to occasional probability with a critical to catastrophic effect = extremely high risk initially.  Control measures:  Stay apprised of current fire hazard.  Understand Fire plan for your range.  Limit tracer fire to early morning and late afternoon.
