Why is an Evacuation Process Important?
• Personnel protection
o Remove people from harm’s way in the most efficient manner
• Personnel accountability
o Businesses did not know for 4-5 days after the World Trade towers
collapsed where all their employees were
• First Responder protection
o Responders will conduct Search and Rescue to find missing persons, at
the risk of their lives
• Property/research protection
o Responders will search for people before they fight the fire

“We took the highest amount of risk possible because we thought we had
civilians in the structure," Fire Chief Terry Garrison said. "The structure
collapsed and our members who were trying to save lives were lost.“

Fire forces Memorial Union to evacuate
Barometer, 5/12/2014
• When firefighters Leo Onderko and Will
Kalenius, from Fire Station 2, reported to the
MU, some people were still inside.
• “This is a serious, serious thing here,” said
Corvallis Battalion Chief Randy Harrison.
• Harrison, like Onderko, Kalenius and other
department employees, expressed the need for
people to take fire alarms seriously. When the
alarm sounds, people need to react and
evacuate.
• After Onderko and Kalenius evacuated the
remaining people, they located the bathroom,
which was full of black smoke.

How to Evacuate
• When you hear the alarm, go
o Even if it is not real, take advantage of an unscheduled practice
• Exit via the nearest, safest exit
• Alert others as you go
o Don’t delay your own exit
o Conference rooms
o Closed doors (bathrooms, offices)
• Assemble at your assembly area
14
Evacuate cont.
• In assembly area:
o Identify someone in charge
o Check in with supervisor/manager/person in charge
o Determine accountability
 Negative accountability – confirm no one was in a space as
you left
 Positive accountability – name by name on a roster (very
difficult to do)
o Be prepared to show on a map to fire department any
location that you aren’t sure if you have cleared
o Don’t leave (no coffee run!)

Shelter In Place / Lock Down
• Some incidents, seeking indoor shelter is better then
evacuating
• Seek interior room, away from windows
• Close exterior doors and windows
• May need to seek shelter in upstairs room
• May need to lock door for protection
o Lock inside room doors
o Leave outside unlocked to allow people in to seek shelter in unlocked
rooms
• DO NOT sound the fire alarm
• Monitor communications for more information

At Home
• Select a room that is big enough to hold your family,
but small enough that you can seal it (bathrooms
usually work best)
• Consider precutting plastic sheeting (heavier than
food wrap) to seal windows, doors, and air vents.
Each piece should be several inches larger than the
space you want to cover so that it lies flat against the
wall. Label each piece with the location of where it
fits.
• Once you have sealed yourself in, only leave if you
receive the “all clear” or if the useable air becomes
stagnant and it is hard to breathe.

Active Shooter
• Schedule 1 hour for OSP Run.Hide.Fight presentation
• Videos
o Run.Hide.Fight (FBI)

o Active Shooter Awareness (Homeland Security)

o Surviving an active shooting incident (Alberta Campus)

Background
• There is no “typical” Active Shooter profile
•
•
•
•
•
29% of incidents take place on a school campus (K-20)
71% of incidents are in the workplace
78% of shooters are familiar with the place
96% male, age range 10-64
Almost all shootings are over in less than 8 minutes
• Department of Justice
• 2 people murdered every day at work

Lessons learned from airline incidents
•
•
•
Two 737 aircraft crashes at airports
2 minutes to evacuate plane before fire engulfed it
Airport fire response within 5 minutes
Canadian Air
Greek Air
No injuries
55 fatalities/137 injuries
75% passengers were frequent
business flyers
100% first time flyers. Most still
buckled within their seats
Survival was the result of repetitious training
Incident will happen in seconds. Response only has a few
minutes to be effective.
How to Respond an Active Shooter
• Run
o
o
If you have the opportunity to not be in the same area as
the shooter, get away
Leave your belongings behind
• Hide
o
o
o
24
If you might be seen by the shooter if you were to run,
then Hide in an area out of the active shooter’s view
Block entry to your hiding place and lock the doors
Silence your phones and each other
How to Respond cont.
• Fight
o
o
o
o
o
25
As a last resort and only when your life is in imminent
danger
Attempt to incapacitate the active shooter
Act with physical aggression and throw items at the active
shooter
Gang up on the attacker
Move hard, move fast, and commit to the action
What to expect from police
• The officer is focused on the shooter and not you
• Don’t create a distraction to the response
o Remain calm, and follow the officers’ instructions
o Immediately raise hands and spread fingers
o Avoid pointing, screaming and/or yelling
• First aid and medical response will happen after the shooting
threat has been contained

Earthquakes
• Cascadia Subduction Zone event
• 9M, 3-5 minutes of shaking
• Aftershocks of 8+M for several
hours
• Pre – 2000
• Not a matter of If, but When
• Circa 2006
• Next 100 years (10-15% chance)
• 2013
• Sometime during our life time (next
50 years) (37% chance)

Response
•
If you feel an earthquake:
• Drop, cover and hold on
Earthquake will seriously delay emergency response.
• Strong ground motions for 3 to 5 minutes.
• Liquefaction and earthquake force will cause extensive landslides, cutting
lifelines
• Most bridges will be damaged and damage may not be obvious to a lay
observer
• Nearly all buildings will be damaged by the earthquake, including those
that may be designated as emergency shelters.
• Coast will be cut up into “islands” by slides and bridge failure, probably
for weeks.
Response cont.
• How will you be notified?
• Intense shaking
• Don’t wait for Alerts, Alarms, or Emails
• Action
• The goal is to protect yourself from falling debris
• Use the best available cover in your immediate area
Drop, Cover, Hold On
• Drop low to the floor
• You don’t want to be thrown down by the shaking
• Seek Cover
• To protect yourself from falling debris
• Use the best cover available
• Hold On to the Cover
• The shaking may cause the Cover to “walk” around. Stay with it!
Select the best cover available
Good
Protect the whole body
Hard surface
Able to support weight
of falling objects
Can exit from
underneath
afterwards
OK
Doorway
• Can swing and pinch
• Nobody is 4 inches wide
• Not all are load bearing
Wall or furniture
• Get low
• Provides protection on 1
side
• Might create a safe
space if debris falls
Poor
Laying down or
standing in the
middle of the room
Squeezing under Cover
that you cannot get
back from (under
bed)
Nisqually 2001, WA State office bldg
Cut feet are a frequent injury
Falling facade
Mitigation
•
•
•
•
Fasten items to walls
Don’t place glass above your bed
Fasten your water heater to the wall
Place shoes, with socks in them, under
your bed
• Place in bag and tie to bed leg
• Consider placing gloves and clothing in the
bag
Non-structural Mitigation
Tsunami
And just when you thought the earthquake was bad enough!
