  2. The most significant hazard threatening industrial facilities is fire

  3. A new organization should not be developed to handle emergency situations, but existing organizations should be prepared to take care of the situations

  4. A search is made aftereverybomb threat call

  5. The searchincludes common areas, occupied areas, and unoccupied areas

  6. Control over the entry of personnel and materials is the most important countermeasure to bombs

  7. The emergency plan is tested at leastannually

  8. Data media must be protected in specially insulated records containers which protect the contents against temperatures up to 150 Fand80% humidity

  9. The automatic sprinkler system is ordinarily activated by the melting of a metal seal and water then flows through the system when the head valves are released

  10. Governmentandindustryshare the responsibility for emergency and disaster planning

  11. The emergency planmust be distributed to all personnel with responsibility for action

  12. A “bomb blanket” is used only by specifically trained personnel

  13. “Vital Records” are those necessary to insure the survival of the business. Vital records usually constitute no more than 2 percent of a corporation’s records

  14. Responsibility for a shutdown should be assigned to persons familiar with the process

  15. The emergency plan is activated by the facility manager, the President, or the CEO

  16. The emergency plan should be directive in nature

  17. In a fire, the facility must have “the capability to respond quickly with well trained personnel to contain and extinguish the fire”.

  18. In a high rise building, partial evacuationincludes the floor above and the floor below

  19. The most commonof all terrorist tactics isbombing

  20. The purposes of emergency planning are to:a. Anticipate the emergencyb. Provide actionduring the emergency; andc. Return to normal operations

  21. In dealing with plant fires, mutual assistanceandprior coordination with the fire department is essential. The critical element is the ability to respond quickly with well trained personnel to contain and extinguish the fire

  22. A tidal wave (TSUNAMI) is caused by underwater disturbances

  23. A “hurricane warning” is issued when it is determined that winds of 74 mphorhigherwill be encountered

  24. “Tornadoes” are violent local storms with whirling winds that can reach 200 - 400 m.p.h. The width of a tornado ranges from 200 yards to one mile and travels 5-30 miles along the ground at speeds of 30-70 m.p.h.

  25. Tornado watch - tornadoes are expected to developTornado warning - tornado has actually been sighted in the area

  26. Severe thunderstorm - possibility of frequent lightning and/or damaging winds of greater than 50 m.p.h., hail and heavy rain.Severe thunderstorm watch - possibility of tornadoes, thunderstorms, frequent lightning, hail and winds greater than 75 m.p.h.

  27. Heavy snow warning - an expected snowfall of 4 inches or more in a 12-hour period or 6 inches or more in a 24-hour period

  28. Blizzard - the most dangerous of all winter storms.

  29. Blizzard warning - considerable snow and winds of 35 m.p.h.ormore are expected.A severe blizzard warning - very heavy snowfall is expected with winds of at least 45 m.p.h. and temperatures of 10 degreesorlower.

  30. A large proportion of energy in a nuclear explosion is emitted in the form of light and heat and is generally referred to as Thermal radiation

  31. In assessing the vulnerability of individual facilities, major factors considered are: • a. Environment • b. Indigenous • c. Economic

  32. The one thing that distinguishes disastersormajor emergencies from the emergencies plant personnel deal with each day is the need for coordinated emergency operations

  33. The basic emergencyplan should be made up of three elements:1. Authority 2. Types of emergencies 3. Plan execution

  34. A community basedemergency control centermust be established to coordinate all efforts in a major emergency

  35. The value of an emergency plan is that it:a. Provides a written record and means of communicating information throughout the organizationb. Assures that all procedures fit into an integrated planc. Promotes uniformityd. Assures a permanent record of decisions and acquired knowledgee. Provides a means of orientation of new employees into emergency responsibilitiesf. Permits management to delegate specific authoritiesg. Presents a public relations medium for communicate to employees, customers and stockholders

  36. “Emergency readiness” means preparation has reached the point where you are prepared to react promptly to save life and protect property if the plant is threatened or hit by a major emergency

  37. Every industrial firm, regardless of size, should establish an internal organization that will be able to protect life and property in time of any emergency

  38. The Vital Records Protection Plan should be tested at least once a year. The tests of Vital Records Program should verify that vital records needed after a disaster are:a. Current b. Protected sufficiently against natural disasters, nuclear detonation and other perils c. Retrievable as needed in usable form

  39. The decision to evacuate a building upon the receipt of a bomb threat should be made by a senior member of management

  40. Bomb Threat - a search is made after every bomb threat call.The facility manager should make the decision as to whoshould search

  41. When a bomb threat is received, the following are notified, in order :a. Persons responsible for search and evacuationb. Local authoritiesc. Explosive demolition teams; andd. Medical facilities

  42. A clear zone with a radius of at least 300 feet should be established around a suspicious object including the floors above and below

  43. StrikeThe most frequent strike is the “economic strike”, which must be preceded by at least60 days notice

  44. StrikeThe “unfair labor practice strike” can occur suddenly with little or no effective planning

  45. StrikeThe mostimportant outside contact will be with local police

  46. StrikeA sound policy with respect to police arrests would be to not attempt to influence the police against initiating prosecutions where police are complaining witnesses

  47. StrikeDocumentary surveillance of workers engaged in legal and legitimate labor practices such as legal picketing during a strike couldamount to an unfair labor practice

  48. TerrorismKidnapping is a classic act of terrorism

  49. TerrorismFor the most effective personal protection of a possible kidnapping target, a minimum of two (2) bodyguards is recommended
