EXPLOSIONS
In the event of an explosion:
- Immediately take cover under tables, desks, or other furniture that will provide protection from flying glass and debris.
- After the effects of the explosion have subsided, dial 911.
- If necessary, activate the building alarm system.
- Evacuate the immediate area of explosion.
- Seek and assist injured and disabled people in evacuating the building. Exit via the stairway. DO NOT use elevators. See the “Assisting Disabled Persons” section.
- Once outside, move to an open area at 150 feet away from the affected building. Avoid inner courtyards. Keep roadways and walkways clear for emergency vehicles.
The time to become familiar with emergency procedures is BEFORE an emergency situation occurs.
