In the event of a hazardous material, biological or chemical agent release in the vicinity of the campus, a shelter in place order will be given. Atmospheric conditions outside the building may be dangerous. The HVAC system should be deactivated to prevent contamination of the inside air supply. No one should leave the building until an “all clear” or secure message is broadcast over the PA system.
In the event of a hazardous material, biological or chemical agent release inside the buildings on campus, the fire alarm will be sounded and an evacuation will be ordered. The Material Safety Data Sheets, maintained in the Operations Office will be consulted for evacuation distances and mitigation (clean up) procedures. No attempt to clean up a hazardous material should be conducted by untrained persons.
