which of the following would not typically be included in the transfer of command briefing?

In an ICS/incident management context, “special requests from agency representatives” would not typically be included in the transfer of command briefing.

What the briefing usually covers

A transfer of command briefing focuses on operationally critical, incident- centered information so the new Incident Commander can assume responsibility seamlessly.

Typical elements include:

• Situation status (what has happened, current conditions, outstanding problems).

• Incident objectives and priorities, often tied to the Incident Action Plan.

• Current organization and key assignments in the incident structure.

• Resource information such as resources on scene and resources ordered and en route.

• Incident communications plan and any immediate safety concerns.

Why “special requests” are excluded

The transfer briefing is designed to be concise and focused on command-level continuity rather than on individual stakeholder or agency preference items.

• Special requests from agency representatives are usually handled through liaison or planning/coordination processes, not the command transfer itself.

• Including such requests could distract from the critical operational picture that must be passed to the incoming commander.

So, when asked “which of the following would not typically be included in the transfer of command briefing?”, the correct choice is: special requests from agency representatives.
