AFFECTED COMPASS SECTORS/PROTECTIVE RESPONSE AREAS CHART Directions for use:

Locate appropriate wind direction and find plume center line sector and two adjacent sectors in the "Affected Compass Sectors" column. The centerline sector is the middle sector of each set. The corresponding "Protective Response Areas" in which protective actions are to be implemented can then be found for downwind distances of interest by reading across the page.

Note that protective actions for any compass sectors in the two-mile radius (0-2 miles column) should be recommended for all 4 protective response areas in the two-mile radius as shown below.
