To all EPA employees:

       The Office of Administration and Resources Management (OARM) updated this Employee Emergency
Preparedness Guide to promote the safety and security of all EPA employees. It outlines the actions employees should
take to protect themselves during a wide range of emergency conditions and emphasizes the importance of following
building-specific plans and procedures during emergencies. It is also a constant reminder, as we move further away
from the events of September 11.2001, that we must remain ever vigilant in our everyday lives.

       In addition to general information, this Guide includes resources such as Web sites and reference materials that
will help employees become better prepared for emergency events. Remember, as an employee, you have a
responsibility to follow EPA procedures and the instructions of emergency personnel during evacuations and shelter-in-
place situations.

       OARM will continue to work with the programs and Regions nationwide to enhance EPA employee awareness
of emergency preparedness and readiness activities. We hope you find the guide informative and useful.

I. Introduction
e purpose of this Emergency Preparedness
Guide is to provide EPA employees with
important emergency information to help prevent
injury, loss of life. loss of property, and damage to EPA
facilities in times of crisis or emergency. This publication
offers practical suggestions to address several possible
emergency situations in the workplace. If you notice an
emergency, an important first step is to contact your
managers, supervisors, and security. Please keep their
phone numbers within arms reach, so you can contact
them immediately, if needed.
Remember, every employee has a responsibility to be
prepared to respond in an emergency, to attend training,
understand and follow emergency procedures. and to
follow the instructions of managers, supervisors, or the
Occupant Emergency Plan (OEP) Team members and
emergency personnel in an emergency.
II. What To Do If Someone Becomes
Seriously Ill
n a MEDICAL EMERGENCY:
1. Dial 911. Give the following information to the 911
Operator:
• Your name and telephone number
• Briefly describe the illness or injury
• Give the name of the employee who needs
assistance
• Street address
• Nearest cross street
• Name of building
• Nearest entrance
• Floor
2. Have a co-worker contact the guard’s desk nearest
to the location. Give the floor, room number, and
any special directions to the location.
3. Have a co-worker contact the Health Unit, if
applicable. Give the floor, room number, and any
special directions to the location.
4. Without endangering yourself, comfort and stay with
the illlinjured person until help arrives.
5. If necessary, certified and/or trained responders can
use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
• As part of implementing the President’s Federal
Employee Initiative for the 21 st Century and to
ensure that injured employees receive the best
possible care, EPA has taken steps to reduce
the damaging effects of sudden cardiac arrest
through the installation ofAEDs.
• An AED is a small portable device capable of
administering an appropriate electric shock
through the chest wall to the heart.
• Microprocessors inside the device first assess
the patient’s heart rhythm, determine if
defibrillation is needed, and, only if needed, will
advise the user to administer the shock.
• Audible and/or visual prompts guide the user
through the process.
• Contact your safety and health office for further
information onAEDs.
• Room

-------
ifi. What To Do If I Notice A Fire Or
Smoke
you notice a FIRE or SMOKE:
I. Activate the closest pull station.
2. Before exiting the building, call 911 and give the
following information:
• Street address
• Nearest cross street
• Closest entrance to the location of the fire
• Name of the building
• Location, if fire in the building
• Description of the fire.
3. Notify security guards and EPA Security
Representative points of contact (see Pages 13-14)
for the building.
4. Follow the evacuation procedures for your facility.
If you become trapped in a building during
a fire:
• If you are on the ground floor and have access
to a window that opens, carefully climb out if
you can do so safely.
• If there is no window, stay near the floor where
the air will have less smoke. Shout at regular
intervals to alert emergency crews of your
location. DO NOTPANIC.
• If you are in a room with the door closed, feel
the door with the back of your hand. If the door
is warm, do not open it. If smoke is entering the
room through cracks around the door, stuff
something in the cracks to stop the flow.
• If you are on an upper floor and cannot reach
one of the stairwells, go to an office with a
window, close the office door, go to the window
and wave something so emergency crews can
see you. Do NOT break the window, unless
you are advised to do so by emergency
personnel, as this may cause smoke and fire to
spread faster.
• If the telephones are working, call 911, security
guards, and an EPA Security Representative for
the building to report the following:
— Floor location
— Room location
— Number of people in the room
— Extent of any injuries.
Fire Safety
• You should know the location of and how to
use fire extinguishers. fire exits, and exit
stairwells.
• Smoking is permitted only in designated areas
all smoking materials must be extinguished in a
proper receptacle.
I

-------
• Do not prop open fire doors or stairwell doors. 7
• Report fire and stairwell doors that do not close
properly to the facility and
secuflty managers.
• Ensure you know
several egress routes out
of the building.
IV. What To Do When
Evacuating The
Building
If an alarm sounds in the
building. immediately begin to
evacuate and remain calm.
2. Follow all instructions given by your designated
official. managers. supervisors. OEP Team. facility
management, and emergency personnel.
3. If you are an “Assistance Monitor” and are unable
to reach the person you normally assist, contact one
of the OEP Team members or call security.
4. If you are on a lower floor, it is critical that you
evacuate immediately, so that those on the upper
floors are not caught in a backup in the stairwells as
they descend to the lower floors. Always leave the
building. NEVER re-enter until an “All Clear” is
given and NEVER assume it is a drill.
5. Document control officials and securit personnel
should quickly secure all classified and confidential
material in an appropriate manner before leaving the
work area, unless you are in imminent danger.
6. If it will not delay your exit, take our coat, if the
weather is inclement. If you are at your work area.
take your wallet/purse. and identification. but leave
briefcases and suitcases behind. Do NOT take any
food or drinks, If you are on a floor lower than your
work area when the alarm to evacuate is sounded.
do NOT go back to your office to get your personal
things.
Close all office doors but do NOT lock them
because emergency personnel may have to re-enter.
8. Do NOT use elevators
unless instructed to do so
by emergency personnel.
9. Walk quickly and calmly
to the nearest marked exit and
ask others to do the same.
Know at least two egress exits
because some emergencies may
prevent use of the stairwells you
normally use. If your health
permits. practice walking the exit
routes so you are familiar with them in an
emergency.
10. Hold the handrail and proceed down the stairs to the
ground floor lobby or exit.
• Stay to the right, so emergency workers can
come up the stairs while you are evacuating.
• Assist others who may need help.
• if necessary. remove high-heeled shoes for a
safe and rapid evacuation.
• If you need to rest, move to a landing; do not
stop on the stairs.
• If individuals fall and they can be moved, move
them to a safe location away from egress paths
until help arrives. Contact security for help. If
you cannot reach security, continue to the exit
and give emergency personnel the location of the
fallen individual.
• If electrical power fails while you are in the
stairwells, follow the emergency lighting to the
nearest exit.
11. If you are in the garage when instructions to
evacuate are given, proceed to the nearest
automobile ramp and walk out if possible. If you
are closer to a stairwell EXIT. use it.

-------
12. Exit the building and move directly to your assigned
outside assembly area.
13. Once at the outside assembly area, report to your
manager, remain quiet, stay with your group, and
listen for further instructions.
14. Do not re-enter the building until informed by the
appropriate authorities that it is safe to do so.
V. What To Do If Advised
To “Shelter-In-Place”
When to Shelter-In-Place?
• Shelter-In-Place is a
protective action that attempts
to minimize a person’s chance
of injury when an emergency
occurs outside the building
such as severe weather, civil
unrest, or a tenorist event.
The decision to Shelter-In-
Place means senior Agency
Officials believe it is safer
inside the building than
outside.
What does it mean to Shelter-In-Place?
• Shelter-in-Place means that you remain indoors
at your present location with doors and
windows closed. This could mean remaining at
your desk or proceeding to another location in
the building.
• If you are outside, seek shelter inside the nearest
building immediately.
• The Administrator or designated official, using all
available information, will make the decision to
Shelter-in-Place.
How long would we Shelter-In-Place?
• Shelter-in-Place is designed to be
short term, that is. less than four
hours in duration.
• The concept of Sheltering-In-Place
is designed to provide some measure of
safety from the time an emergency
occurs until there is sufficient
reliable information about the
emergency to suggest alternative
courses of action. Once sufficient information is
received, a decision will be made on
the appropriate action.
What actions should I take
when I am advised to
Shelter-In-Place?
• Listen for instructions over the PA
system or from your supervisor.
• Such instructions may include that
you:
— Remain at your workstation, or
— Proceed to another location such
as an interior room being sure to
shut all windows and doors leading to
the hallway, or
— If you are in the garage, return
immediately to the interior of the
building.
• Turn off all individual fans or heaters. especially
the ones under the windows, to reduce the
spread of contamination.
• Stay away from windows.
• If you must use the telephone, keep
conversations short to keep the lines open.
• Do not cluster in hallways just in case
emergency responders need access to an
internal location in the building.
4

-------
What if I am not at or near my building or
my office, and I am advised to Shelter-In-
Place?
• If you are advised to Shelter-In-Place, no matter
where you are, you should follow instructions
and shelter in the building where you are or if
you are outside, go to the nearest building.
• Without endangering yourself, it is also important
that during the workday, you follow you!- office
procedures and contact your supervisor or
office to inform them of your location.
Am I required to remain in the building if
we are advised to Shelter-In-Place?
• Shelter-In-Place is generally a voluntary action,
unless mandated by law enforcement or public
health officials. Please note that if you decide to
leave the building during a Shelter-In-Place. you
may not be permitted to re-enter. Additionally,
you could put your life at risk and that of your
fellow worker.
• However, employees are advised that the
decision to go to Shelter-In-Place will be made
by trained personnel with access to better, more
timely information than that available to most
building occupants. The advice to Shelter-In-
Place should be taken seriously and followed to
the maximum extent possible.
• If you decide to evacuate instead of Sheltering-
In-Place. follow your office procedures to
advise your supervisor or a co-worker before
you leave.
What to do if a Shelter-In-Place is
announced and the Fire Alarms sound?
• Check to see if you smell smoke or see fire.
• If not, wait a couple of minutes for an
announcement providing specific information and
instructions from your EPA Designated Officials
and/or Building Management.
• If you do detect smoke or fire, alert other OEP
team members and evacuate the building
immediately.
• Local responders will then advise as to the next
steps.
VI. What To Do If I Receive A Bomb
Threat
B omb threats are normally received by telephone,
although they might be received via mail ore-
mail, or by a hand delivered message.
If you receive a bomb threat by telephone:
Without alerting the caller, you should listen closely
and complete the Bomb Threat Checklist (see page
11) during the call.
2. As soon as possible, notify another employee to
contact local Police (911), security guards and the
EPA Security Representative for the building without
alarming the caller. Additionally. report the threat to
your designated official, facility and security
managers, and supervisor.
3. Anyone who finds an actual or suspected bomb or a
suspicious package/container must contact EPA
security immediately and report its location and
description. EPA Security will contact local law
enforcement officials.
4. Do NOT in any way disturb, touch, or move the
item. and close off the area around the package.
5. Turn off two-way radios and cell phones until the
matter is resolved. These devices could produce
radio frequencies that may activate the suspected
bomb.
6. When evacuation is necessary, use the established
evacuation procedures for EPA’s buildings.
Elevators may beused to evacuate those who are

-------
mobility impaired.
7. If you have any questions regarding bomb threat
procedures, contact your EPA Security
Representative or your supervisor.
VII. What To Do If I Have Suspicions
About Office Mail
e following information was taken from the
November 2002 United States Coast Guard
(USCG) Mail Handling Protocol, the GSA Mail
Handling Protocol ( http://www.gsa.gov/mailpolicy) , and
the October 31. 2001, Centers for Disease Control
(CDC) and Prevention Health Advisors. which can be
found at the following web address: http://
www.ht.cdc.gov/DocumentsApp/
HAN5O.pdf . For additional
information, visit the CDC website.
Regardless of the mail ou
receive, if it makes you
uncomfortable, has one or more
suspicious markings, or has
been opened and contains
suspicious objects, take the
following actions:
• Remain calm.
• Leave the item exactly where it is. Do not
move, shake, stir, taste, or smell the item.
• Call your EPA Security Representative and
follow their instructions.
— Provide the name, room number, floor
location, and any information that securty
personnel request.
• If the letter or package is opened and contains
suspicious material:
— Leave the office and close the door, if the
item is in a private office.
— If in a large office area. have people move to
a secure area outside the office and close off
the potentially contaminated area.
— Stop others from entering the space.
— Wash your hands and face with soap and
water.
VIII. What To Do If I Handle Irradiated
Mail
• Following the anthrax attacks of October 2001.
the U.S. Postal Service began irradiating mail
destined for government offices whose ZIP
Codes start with 202. 203, 204 and 205 in the
Washington. DC area. Irradiation destroys
bacteria and viruses that could be
present in the mail
• Responding to federal worker
health complaints, the National
Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health (NIOSH) conducted
assessments of the handling of
irradiated mail by postal
employees, federal workers, and
Congressional employees. The
reports can be found at http://
www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/irr-mai l/default.htmi .
NIOSH did not detect airborne contaminants
above occupational exposure limits.
The following information was taken from GSA ’s
Guidelines for Handling Irradiated Mail, which can
be found at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topicsrirr-mail/
default.htm ) :
• Open mail gently with a letter opener: do not
tear envelopes.
• Ensure that the place used to open mail has
adequate ventilation.
• Do not enclose unopened mail in a box, drawer
or bag. Spread out the mail so it can “air out.”

• Individuals who have had prior skin reaction
related to opening the mail should consider
wearing gloves when opening mail. If using
gloves, they should be non-latex, non-powdered.
and the appropriate size. Gloves should be
changed when they are
noted to be dirty or have
perforations. Gloves
should be removed when
eating. drinking, or
smoking.
• Avoid touching your mouth.
eyes. or other mucous
membranes when handling
mail, even when wearing
gloves.
• Wash hands with soap and water after handling
mail, after remo ing gloves, before eating.
drinking or smoking. or when replacing torn or
worn gloves. To reduce the drying effect of hand
washing. use a water-based moisturizer each time
after washing hands.
• Report all symptoms to your supervisor
IX. What To Do If A Biological
Substance is Released
ow can biological substances get into our
building?
• A biological agent may be released intentionally or
unintentionally, which potentially could make you
sick.
• Biological agents must be breathed in. ingested or
absorbed through cuts in your skin.
• A biological attack may or may not be
immediately obvious. If the agent is not visibly
present. it may be days or weeks before local
health care workers notice an unusual number or
pattern of sick people.
If there is a biological release in your office area,
you should:
• Cover your mouth and nose with layers of fabric
that will still allow you to breathe. Examples
include: t-shirt, handkerchief or towel. You can
also use layers of tissues, napkins or
paper towels.
• Leave the area immediately:
close the door or section off the
area to keep others away.
• Notify your EPA Security
Representative of the location. If
possible. list all people who were in
the area so they may receive
• Wash your hands and face with soap and warm
water.
If there is a biological release outside your
building:
• Move away from the windows and exterior doors.
• Minimize air movement by turning off fans.
• If necessary. cover your mouth and nose with
layers of fabric.
• You may be instructed to Shelter-In-Place or to
evacuate, depending on the situation and the
conditions in the surrounding area.
X. What To Do If A Chemical Substance Is
Released
• Chemicals may be released intentionally or
unintentionally.
• A chemical attack is a deliberate release of a
chemical that can poison people or the
environment. Signs of a chemical attack may
medical attention.

-------
include many people with watery eyes. choking or
• Radiation is the excess energy released by
having trouble breathing.
• A chemical spill or incident is an accidental release
ofa chemical. Chemicals may be accidentally
released by natural causes such as earthquakes
and floods, transportation accidents such as trucks
or trains carrying chemicals, or industrial accidents
such as release at a chemical plant.
• Many chemicals have pleasant or common odors.
Some examples of smells include: mustard, onions.
garlic, roasted almond, chlorine or freshly cut hay.
If there is a chemical release inside your building:
• Leave the area immediately: close the door or
section off the area to keep others away.
• Notif your EPA Security Representative of the
location. If possible. list all people who were in
the area so they may receive medical attention.
• After evacuating the building.
relocate to an area where there is
plenty of fresh air.
• Be sure to give all symptoms you
may be experiencing to trained
medical staff.
If there is a chemical release outside
your building:
• Get away from the windows and exterior doors.
• Minimize air movement by turning off fans.
• You may be instructed to Shelter-In-Place or to
evacuate depending on the situation and the
conditions in the surrounding area.
Note: The building may be impacted from a chemical
release several miles away.
XI. What To Do If There Is An
Emergency Involving Radiation
unstable atoms. This energy, in high doses, can be
harmful because of its effect on your skin and
internal organs.
• You are subjected to low levels of radiation every
day from the sun, radioactive elements in the soil
and rocks, and from medical and dental x-rays.
• Radiation cannot be detected by sight, smell or
any of your other senses. Specialized equipment
must be used to detect the presence of radiation.
Examples of an emergency involving radiation
include:
• Dirty Bomb — An explosive device that is
wrapped with low grade radioactive materials.
The low grade. or “dirty”. materials can come
from common products such as medical
equipment and smoke detectors. Typically. the
highest risk of injury is from the explosion itself,
not the release of radioactive materials.
• Nuclear Blast — An explosion with
intense light and heat, along with intense
pressure waves that can contaminate the
air. water and ground.
• Radioactive Release — A release of
radioactive materials from a nuclear power
plant or other facility that handles
radioactive materials that can contaminate
the air, water and ground. A radioactive
release may be intentional or unintentional.
If a radiation emergency occurs near your building:
• People in the blast area may be injured from the
explosion and be exposed to radioactive dust and
debris.
• In order to limit the amount of radiation you are
exposed to. remember TSD: Time. Shielding and
Distance:
— Time: Minimize the time you are exposed.
8

-------
— Shielding: The more shielding (e.g..
buildings. walls. etc.) between you and the
radiation source, the less exposure you will
have.
— Distance: The farther you are from the
radiation source, the
lower your likely
exposure.
Shelter-In-Place can reduce your
exposure through TSD. Since
trained first responders will need to
use specialized equipment to
determine the amount of radiation
present. the length of time for
Shelter-In-Place could vary.
Notification of a radiological emergency may
occur in the following ways:
• The building s PA s\stem.
the Emergency
Communications System
(ECS). two-way radios.
OEP Team members, local
emergency responders.
and local television arid
radio.
• These notifications will be
accompanied by
instructions on steps to be taken. such as whether
to Shelter-In-Place or evacuate.
XII. What To Do If I Am Ordered To
Evacuate For A Chemical, Biological
Or Radiological Emergency
• Proceed calmly out of the building following the
evacuation procedures.
• Try to stay upwind from the incident to avoid
exposing yourself.
• After any disaster or emergency. local officials
and relief workers vil1 be on the scene but cannot
get to everyone immediately.
• If contaminated, local first responders will assess
the situation and determine the best method of
decontamination. If it is determined that mass
decontamination is required, it will be performed
by the first responders.
• The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)
has strategically placed stockpiles
of medicine throughout the United
States to provide medication to
potentially exposed personnel
within 12 hours of an emergency.
