Higher Education Opportunity Act 2015 Campus Fire Safety Annual Compliance Report

Transcription

1 Higher Education Opportunity Act 205 Safety Annual Compliance Report Overview The Higher Education Opportunity Act (Public Law 0-35) became law in August, 2008, requiring all United States academic institutions to produce an annual fire safety report outlining fire safety practices, standards, and all fire-related on-campus statistics for residential facilities. The following public disclosure report details all information required by this law as it relates to Northwestern University (all campuses). General Statement University Owned/Controlled Student Housing All dormitory residents (including those with special needs) and residence halls staff receive intensive and comprehensive fire safety training at the beginning each academic year. In addition, a quality control program that covers emergency and evacuation procedures is reviewed regularly with the occupants and staff each respective residence hall. resident is given a copy the Student handbook, which includes information on fire safety and what appropriate action to take during a fire alarm or fire emergency. Residential fire drills are conducted during the first week the academic quarter at least twice per year. Basic fire safety instruction is fered to all new and existing employees. All Northwestern University residential facilities are completely covered by an integrated automatic sprinkler and fire alarm system, which is monitored 24 hours/day, seven days/week. detection systems in residence halls are manufactured by either Siemens Pyrotronics or Simplex. Hard wired with battery backup smoke detection devices are located in every room in every residence hall and are in compliance with local fire code. Every room in every residence hall is also equipped with fire sprinkler protection. The fire sprinkler system is driven by electric powered fire pumps.

2 Specific Prevention Policies It is the policy Northwestern University to provide faculty, staff, students and visitors with the safest possible environment, free from potential fire hazards. The primary goal the University s Prevention Program is to recognize hazardous conditions and take appropriate action before such conditions result in a fire emergency. This goal is accomplished by () conducting periodic fire safety inspections all University buildings and (2) increasing the fire safety awareness employees and students by conducting periodic training on basic fire safety. Regarding Safety Inspections, fire and life safety features the buildings shall be in compliance with all applicable standards the National Protection Association (NFPA) and adopted by the State Illinois and the Cities and Chicago. The Office Risk Management (ORM) conducts fire safety inspections all University buildings. Some buildings may be inspected more frequently as deemed necessary. A copy the completed Inspection Report for each building will be forwarded to the appropriate department responsible for maintaining fire safety compliance that building. The responsible department will be expected to correct any deficiencies and notify ORM by returning a copy the report indicating the date when each deficiency was corrected. ORM will conduct a follow up inspection to verify correction all deficiencies once notification has been received. Copies all completed Inspection Reports will be maintained by ORM. Managers will receive a copy each completed Inspection Report. The Manager will be responsible for correcting the deficiencies identified within the time period specified in each report. Basic fire safety instruction will be provided during New Employee Orientation. Basic fire safety instruction is provided to all students living in Residence Halls who attend the orientation program at the beginning each academic year. exit drills will be conducted as follows: () Health Care Facilities: one/quarter/shift, (2) Residence Halls (dormitories): Fall and Spring quarters. To minimize the potential for fires Northwestern University prohibits open burning and the use combustible decorations at all times. Open burning as defined by the University is any open/exposed flame or combustion that produces heat, light or smoke, and has the potential to cause a fire. Examples open burning are, but not limited to, candles, incense, bonfires, campfires (except at the designated fire pit on the campus landfill) and pyrotechnics. All decorations and ornaments must be fire-resistant or non-combustible material, U.L. rated and approved for use. They shall not be hung or posted on any fire protection equipment (fire hose cabinets, fire extinguishers, sprinkler heads and piping, smoke detectors, fire alarm pull boxes etc.), on or near exits, on or near exit or emergency lights, on or near any other protective or operating feature provided by the University, or in any manner that could present a fall or trip hazard, or impede egress. Removal all decorations, ornaments and displays are required immediately after the event or prior to the University s annual holiday closure. Decorative lights including Holiday lights, as well as floodlights, extension cords or electrically operated ornaments are prohibited. It is the policy the University that only artificial Holiday trees will be used and shall be fire-retardant or non-combustible material. Indoor trees must be placed out the way traffic, do not block doorways, exits, exit signs or any the fire protection equipment (fire hose cabinets, fire extinguishers, sprinkler heads and piping, fire alarm pull boxes, smoke detectors, etc.), or placed in any manner that could present a fall or trip hazard, or impede egress. Artificial snow and other decorative sprays should be used with extreme caution; they shall not be used in laboratory and or clinical settings. Avoid spraying around exits, exit signs or any the fire protection equipment (fire hose cabinets, fire extinguishers, sprinkler heads and piping, fire alarm pull boxes, smoke detectors, etc.). 2

3 To further minimize the potential for fires at Northwestern University, it is the policy Northwestern University to prohibit the use the following items in any University owned or operated facility indoors (unless in accordance with other University policies and procedures, and or by the Authority Having Jurisdiction): Portable space heaters, and products used for cooking/ warming purposes, any open flame device or object including candles, incense sticks and related accessories, hot plates, slow cookers, deep fryers, electric skillets, electric woks, griddles, sandwich makers/grills and other similar type products (for cooking/warming purposes), toaster ovens (for cooking/warming purposes), flammable/combustible liquids (for recreational/personal use), fireworks, firecrackers, rockets, flares, sparklers and other devices, halogen lamps, ceiling/wall tapestries, live Holiday trees or non-fire retardant artificial Holiday trees. The "cooking" and warming options exclude cooking and warming done in areas designed and built for such purposes and only while the use these devices are under the direct supervision qualified personnel such as catering staff and certified food preparers. Smoking is prohibited in ALL University buildings. The non-smoking policy is included in faculty, staff and student handbooks. 3

4 Procedures for students and employees to follow in case fire:. Stay calm. 2. Always sound the building fire alarm immediately. If the alarm fails to operate, warn other occupants by knocking on doors and shouting warnings. 3. Call 9 from a safely located phone. Give as much information as possible to the dispatcher. Do not assume that someone else has already notified the University Police. The University Police will immediately notify the Department and dispatch ficers to the scene. Do not hang up until told to do so by the dispatcher. 4. Before opening the door, feel it with the back your hand. If it is hot, do the following: (if it is not hot, go to step 5) Do not open the windows, unless you are having trouble breathing. Seal cracks around the door with towels, tape, bed clothing or similar items to keep out the smoke. If you are trapped, hang a sheet, jacket, shirt or other object out the window that will attract attention. Shout for help. Call the University Police on the phone and tell them that you are unable to get out your room. The University Police will be in direct radio contact with ficers at the fire. Remain calm until firefighters reach you from the hallway or window. Their first duty upon arriving at a fire is to search for persons trapped in the burning building. 5. If you are able to leave the room, do so immediately and: Take your key with you in case you are forced to return. Close all doors behind you as you exit. This will retard the spread smoke and lessen damage. Go to the nearest exit or stairway. * Do not use the elevator. If smoke, heat or fire blocks your exit, go to an alternate exit. If all exits from a floor are blocked go back to your room and follow the procedures described above in If smoke is present keep low to the floor. Take short breaths to avoid inhaling any more smoke than necessary. 7. Leave the building immediately. When the University Police and/or firefighters arrive, direct them to the fire. 8. After exiting the building, do not congregate at or around the building exits. Follow the directions University Police and firefighters. * Do not reenter the building for any reason until the fire department has declared it safe. 4

5 Student Housing Evacuation Procedures In Case a If you hear the fire alarm immediately evacuate the building using the nearest available exit. Do not attempt to fight a fire unless you have been trained to do so. Awaken any sleeping roommate or suitemates. Prepare to evacuate by putting on shoes and coat if necessary. Feel the doorknob and the door. If they are hot, do not open the door. If they are cool, open slowly, if heat or heavy smoke rushes in, close the door immediately and remain inside. When leaving your room, be sure to take your key in case it is necessary to return to the room should conditions in the corridor deteriorate. Make sure to close the door tightly when evacuating. Resident life staff members who are present on their floors should facilitate the evacuation their floor/section if possible. When the alarm sounds shout (Example: there is an emergency in the building leave by the nearest exit) and knock on doors as they make their way to the nearest exit and out the building. When exiting in smoky conditions keep your hand on the wall and crawl to the nearest exit. Always know more than one path out your location and the number doors between your room and the exit. Do Not Use Elevators. Elevator shafts may fill with smoke or the power may fail, leaving you trapped. Elevators have features that recall and deactivate the elevator during an alarm. Standing and waiting for an elevator wastes valuable time. resident should report to their assigned assembly area. Resident life staff should report to their assigned assembly area and make sure that students have cleared the building. Conduct a head count and do not allow re-entry into the building until directed to do so by emergency personnel. 5

6 Evacuations Designated academic and fice building managers are responsible for coordinating fire evacuation drills with the Office Risk Management. evacuation testing may be announced or unannounced. For each fire evacuation drill, the University documents a description the exercise, the date, time, whether it was announced or unannounced and the number students participating. Test documentation (fire evacuation drills) is maintained and available from the Office Risk Management. Plans for Future Improvements in Safety Northwestern University continually evaluates the fire protection systems in residential facilities. Upgrades occur through planned replacements or building renovations. At this time, the University is surveying installed fire alarm/detection equipment in all residential facilities; and it is developing a replacement schedule based on newer technologies and age installations.
