Property damage for a Class C mishap is described as being within which range?

• A. Greater than $10,000 but less than $200,000
• B. Greater than $1,000,000 but less than $2,000,000
• C. Less than $10,000
• D. Greater than $500,000

Answer: (A)

Property damage thresholds are used to categorize mishaps and determine the level of investigation required. For a Class C mishap, the damage falls within a specific monetary range: greater than $10,000 but less than $200,000. This placement makes it more serious than minor incidents but not large enough to rise into Class B or Class A, which involve higher damage or more severe outcomes.

So, when damage costs exceed $10,000 but stay under $200,000, it fits the Class C category. Damages above $200,000 would move into a higher class, while damages under $10,000 are considered less severe and typically fall into a lower category.
