Option A and D are correct.

Explanation:

The incident commander is responsible for emergency response within an organization.

His core task is to quickly develop objectives in case of an emergency, and make sure that those objectives are accomplished. He/she will be in charge of assigning the necessary resources for an emergency, and how these will be used. The Incident commander should usually be a qualified senior officer.
