3 PURPOSE The purpose of this annex is to describe the process for disseminating warning information to the agencies, organizations and the general public throughout Knox County in the event of an emergency. I. SITUATION AND ASSUMPTIONS A. Situation 1. Threats imposed by disasters and emergencies make it imperative that all communities have a rapid, reliable and efficient method of warning the public. 2. Knox County will utilize multiple methods to provide warnings to the public. These methods include: Wireless Emergency Notification Systems, Reverse Systems, the Integrated Public Alert Warning System, the Emergency Alert System, weather radios, outdoor warning sirens, radio broadcasts, public address systems, and social media. 3. Local print and broadcast media will be utilized to assist in the dissemination of a warning to the general public. 4. Emergency weather radio receivers are located in all schools, the hospital, and governmental buildings. B. Assumptions 1. Wireless Emergency Notification Systems (WENS), Reverse Systems, the Integrated Public Alert Warning System (IPAWS), the Emergency Alert System (EAS), weather radios, outdoor warning sirens, radio broadcasts and public address systems all can be used as appropriate to provide warnings to the general public. 2. Continuous efforts are needed to educate the public on the various methods that may be used to provide emergency warnings. 3. When an emergency requiring evacuation occurs, in addition to the methods listed above, emergency response personnel may need to go door-to-door to notify the occupants of an impending danger. 4. Each political subdivision that owns warning devices will insure those devices are maintained and functioning properly. 5. Emergency weather radio receivers are in-place in all schools/school districts throughout the county. When a warning is received, the school superintendent or principal will be responsible for determining the proper actions to insure the safety of the school children.

16 ATTACHMENT 3 - PROCEDURES UPON WARNING OF UNAUTHORIZED OR ACCIDENTAL LAUNCH OF A NUCLEAR WEAPON This attachment establishes procedures for the Knox County Warning Point staff in case NAWAS warning is received of an accidental, unauthorized or any other unexplained incident involving a possible detonation of a nuclear weapon anywhere in the United States. Procedures below are for an accidental missile launch, and will be modified as necessary for other emergencies involving a possible nuclear weapon detonation. A. If NAWAS warning is received of an accidental missile launch (or any other unauthorized or unexplained incident involving possible detonation of a nuclear weapon) which THREATENS Knox County, the Knox County Warning point operator will IMMEDIATELY: 1. Sound the attack-warning signal on all fixed sirens and instruct police vehicles to augment fixed siren coverage. 2. Call Stations WMVO (AM) and WQIO (FM) (telephone: and ) and instruct them to broadcast the emergency public instructions below immediately, repeating the message until instructed otherwise; also, ask them to standby for further instructions. 3. The emergency public instructions are: a. We have been notified by the national warning center that an accidental missile launch threatens this area at (local) time. A nuclear explosion could occur. Take cover immediately by lying down in a basement, or in the central part of a building, out of line of flying glass. b. The above emergency public instruction should also be pre-positioned with broadcast station(s) serving the area and should be kept at the local warning point. 4. Alert Key officials as follows: a. A list of key officials including the Chief Executive, Emergency Management Director, Radiological Protection Officer, and EOC staff with day and night telephone numbers should be maintained at the County Warning Point. B. If NAWAS warning is received that an accidental missile launch or other incident threatens some part of the U.S. NOT in the Knox County area IMMEDIATELY: Annex C Knox County Emergency Operations Plan 10/1/
17 1. Call station WMVO (AM) and WQIO (FM) (telephone and _ and instruct them to broadcast the emergency public instructions below; also, standby for further instructions. a. The public instructions should be pre-positioned with broadcast station(s), also kept at the warning point.) b. Alert key officials per 1c above. We have been notified by the national warning center that (city, state) is threatened by an accidental missile launch. You need not take cover or take other protective actions at this time. We will give you additional information and advice as soon as it is available. Stay tuned to this station for further instructions. 2. If NAWAS warning is received that a nuclear detonation has occurred and that fallout can be expected in the Knox County area WITHIN ONE HOUR ; a. Sound attack warning per 1a above b. Instruct stations WMVO AND WQIO (telephone line should still be open) to broadcast the emergency public instructions below immediately, repeating the message until instructed otherwise; also. Standby for further instructions. (1) We have been notified by the national warning center that an accidentally launched nuclear weapon exploded in (city, state) at (local time). The nuclear explosion may have produced dangerous radioactive fallout. (2) Fallout may arrive here by (local time). If fallout does arrive, you will need protection to avoid death or serious radiation sickness. (3) Do not use the telephone. (4) Listen carefully to the life-saving instructions we will now broadcast. We will keep repeating these instructions. (5) Take the following actions immediately to protect yourself in case fallout arrives here: (6) Locate the best fallout protection available that you can reach in 20 to 30 minutes or less. Annex C Knox County Emergency Operations Plan 10/1/
18 (7) If you are at home and your house has a basement, the basement provides fair to good fallout protection now. Take these actions to make the protection better: put a work bench or large, sturdy table in the corner of the basement that is farthest below ground (and farthest from an exposed outside wall of the basement, if there is one). Then put boxes or dresser drawers filled with earth on top of the table and on the two exposed sides. Bricks or other heavy materials can also be used. On the table, pile as much heavy material as it will hold without collapsing. Around the table, place as much shielding material as possible. (8) If you are at home and your house does not have a basement, you have three choices. (a) prepare to go to a nearby large building that has a basement (preferably one marked with the yellow-and-black fallout shelter sign); or (b) see if you have a neighbor whose house has a basement who is willing to share his basement with you and your family for one to two weeks; or (c) prepare a fallout shelter in your house. (9) If you do not have a basement and you decide to stay at home, it is essential to prepare a fallout shelter in the middle of the house, away from windows and doors, and putting a large sturdy table there. Then put boxes or dresser drawers filled with earth (or other heavy radiation shielding materials) on top of the table and on all four sides around it. On the table, pile as much heavy shielding materials as it will hold without collapsing. Around the table, place as much shielding materials as possible. (10) Rapidly gather supplies you will need to stay in shelter for one to two weeks. Supplies should include: (a) as much drinkable liquids (water, fruit or vegetable juices) and ready-to-eat-food as you can carry to the shelter area (at home or elsewhere). Water is more important than food. a. A battery-powered radio, flashlight, extra batteries for each, and paper and pencil for taking notes on information given over the radio. b. Special medicines or food required by members of your family such as insulin, heart tablets, dietetic food, or baby food. c. A blanket for each member of family. d. A metal container with a tight-fitting lid to use as an emergency toilet; plastic bags to line the toilet container; toilet paper; soap, wash clothes and towels; a pail or basin, sanitary napkins. Annex C Knox County Emergency Operations Plan 10/1/
19 (11) Remember that fallout may arrive here by (local time) keep listening to this station for information on whether fallout has started to arrive. Take actions for fallout protection without delay. (12) If fallout does arrive here, you may need to stay in shelter for one to two weeks. Listen to this station for civil defense instructions on when you can leave shelter. a. The public instructions should be pre-positioned with broadcast station(s), also kept at the warning point. b. Continue alerting key officials (not already reached per 1c above). 3. If NAWAS warning is received that a nuclear detonation has occurred, but fallout is not expected in the Knox county area within one hour : a. Continue alerting key officials (not already alerted 1c above). b. Instruct stations WMVO and WQIO (telephone line should still be open) that they are to continue broadcasting the public instructions in 2a above: also, standby for further instructions. c. (Note: depending on local circumstances such as how much time is estimated to be needed to contact the chief executive, emergency management director, or radiological protection officer it may be considered desirable to assign additional sop-type duties to the local warning point operators. If so, the following is suggested as a point of department for local warning point instructions. d. If NAWAS warning places the nuclear detonation within 500 miles of Knox county and if the chief executive, emergency management director does not instruct otherwise within 30 minutes of the time of the nuclear detonation instruct stations WMVO and WQIO (telephone line should still be open) to broadcast emergency public instructions in 3b above. e. (Note: the forgoing instructions for the warning point operator provide a fail-safe approach. If the operator is not instructed otherwise within half an hour of the time of the nuclear detonation, instructions will be broadcast to the public to start preparing for fallout protection. Obviously, this will alarm the public; and protection could be unnecessary in areas not threatened by fallout or in all areas if the nuclear detonation were later determined to be an air burst, with no fallout produced. Against this must be weighed the undesirability of not having instructed the public to start preparing for fallout protection, within half an hour of the burst, if the Annex C Knox County Emergency Operations Plan 10/1/
20 community did suffer fallout. It should be remembered that in the highly unlikely event that an accident launch with a nuclear detonation ever occurred, it would undoubtedly occur with no warning, and the chief executive, emergency management director, or radiological officer might be difficult to locate.) 4. If a NAWAS message is received that the accidentally launched weapon has impacted without causing a nuclear detonation: a. Instruct stations WMVO and WQIO (telephone line should still be open) to broadcast the following immediately, if the impact was in the Knox county area: The accidentally-launched missile has impacted this area. A nuclear explosion did not repeat did not occur. However, it is possible that some danger may exist from materials included in a nuclear weapon. Therefore you must remain under cover until further notice. This may be for a number of hours. Keep listening to this station for further civil defense instructions. b. Instruction stations WMVO and WQIO to broadcast the following immediately, if the impact was not in the Knox county area: We have been notified by the national warning center that the accidentally launched missile impacted in (local, state) at (local time). A nuclear explosion did not-repeat-did not occur. You need not take cover or take other protection actions. More information will be provided on regular news broadcasts.
