12 Shelter in Place Some kinds of emergency situations may require the campus to provide shelter within the physical confines of the facility. This direction is given to the command center by either local authorities or emergency coordinators. In the event that a shelter in place is advised for the area including the North Campus or West Hills Center, all persons in the facility will be notified that CCAC North Campus or West Hills Center is preparing to shelter in place and that all occupants must decide whether to shelter in place at CCAC North Campus or West Hills Center until the all clear is announced or whether they will leave the premises. CCAC will do it s best to inform every one of the specific requests of the local authorities and possible results of individual decision. Lock Down Procedures Some emergency situations taking place inside or outside the campus or center, to include local emergencies in the surrounding communities, may require the campus or center to go into a lockdown of the entire facility. In the event that a lockdown is advised for the area including the North Campus or West Hills Center, all persons in the facility will be notified that CCAC North Campus or West Hills Center is preparing to lockdown and that all occupants must decide whether to remain inside the facility until the all clear is announced or whether they will leave the premises. CCAC will do it s best to inform every one of the specific request of the local authorities and possible results of individual decision. The Campus President or a Designee will notify the College President and ensure that all electronic emergency notifications are activated. 12

13 Guidelines for shelter in place: Word of mouth notification performed by only designated floor monitors. Instruct all occupants to remain in their location until further notice. Instruct all occupants to turn off cell phones. Keep all doors closed. Staff will be instructed to keep all campus telephone lines open. Keep staff/students calm. Await additional instruction from campus command center. Areas best suited to shelter in place depend on the threat that is imposed on the facility. For example: Internal classroom corridors provide the best protection from high wind/tornado type emergencies. These areas are away from exterior glass surfaces. If the threat is toxic or biological in nature, the gymnasium offers the best protection with the ability to isolate air-handling systems.

14 AREAS OF RESCUE ASSISTANCE North Campus has four (4) designated areas of Rescue Assistance. Below are the locations of these designated areas. All four of these areas are located outside of stairwells A and B on the second and third floors. These Rescue Assistance areas have intercom capability. By protocol, in an emergency a security guard is assigned to monitor the call center for these intercom stations which is located in the security office, Room Once on post the guard will have two-way communications capability with all 4 stations. In an emergency, certain students with special needs may go to one of these areas and include them in their sweep during an evacuation so that no one is inadvertently overlooked. The Area Monitors will then notify Security of the location of anyone at one of the Areas of Rescue when they make the all clear report for their respective floors. NOTE: The intercoms at the Areas of Rescue Assistance are always powered, with a battery back up in care of loss of power, but the central control panel is only monitored when the building alarm sounds. MEDICAL EMERGENCIES North Campus does not maintain an on-site medical staff. Anyone experiencing or witnessing a medical emergency is encouraged to dial 0 from the nearest phone (a listing of hall phones is included in this plan) or extension 4100 for Security. As always, may also be dialed and a rapid response is always provided by local emergency Medical Services of McCandless. After is called it is suggested that repeated attempts be made to reach the operator at extension 0 or Security at extension 4100 so that the response from E.M.S. may be facilitated. MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS (M.S.D.S.) North Campus maintains its M.S.D.S. files in yellow binders located in the hallway outside the Maintenance Offices, first floor, rear of the building and inside the Security Office, first floor, front of the building. The M.S.D.S. sheets contain valuable information on the types of products used at the campus, the composition of the products, potential for toxicity, flammability, etc. The files are updated periodically with additions made each time a new product is introduced on campus. A secondary set of M.S.D.S. information, for material specific to the operation of the various labs, is maintained on the first floor, North Wing in the chemistry labs. 14

15 EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTERS In the event of an emergency, the first Emergency Operations Center will be the First Stop/Security Office on the first floor at North Campus. From this general area the senior administrator in charge will direct the North Campus response to the situation. Should the first choice not be suitable, the senior administrator in charge will designate an alternate site and this information will be disseminated accordingly. EVACUATION POINTS In an emergency requiring building evacuation all are encouraged to evacuate through the nearest exit taking only jackets, coats and personal valuables closest to them when the alarm sounds. Area Monitors will assist in the evacuation and encourage evacuees to move away from the building. It is suggested and encouraged that everyone keeps entrances clear for responding emergency personnel. All persons descending the stairs should keep to the right on the way down. When the all-clear is announced by the senior North Campus administrator in charge re-entry should be made in an orderly fashion. Due to the number of available exits no specific evacuation points will be designated. 15
