Instructions

The Office of Risk Management Incident/Accident Investigation Forms DA2000 and DA3000 are tools to assist in determining the causes and procedures to prevent the recurrence of similar incidents. All spaces on the forms are to be completed. Use N/A if a question does not apply to the accident. Do not leave blank lines. Never give a copy of the completed form to the injured party.

For any bodily injury or property damage, and in most cases, dial 342-5350 first for ËÄÉ«AV Police.Ìý
