Color Legend Red = Competent and Close Blue = Not Competent Yellow = Competent but Ruled Out

Instructions: Once the Area of Origin has been identified, 1. List ALL possible ignition (heat) sources (across the top) 2. List ALL possible fuel sources (along the side) 3. Where each ignition source intersects with each fuel source, evaluate the physical evidence to determine if the ignition source did in fact ignite that particular fuel source 4. Where a fuel source and an ignition source intersect, verified by physical evidence, these are valid scenarios (points of origin) that need further evaluation to determine the ignition sequence.
