Disaster and Crisis Management Plan

Contamination

Warning of chemical accident or contamination is usually received from civil authorities when there is a threat to the safety of the school.  These accidents may include overturned tankers, broken fuel lines, and those related to the industrial use of chemicals.  When the reported accident occurs, the following procedure is required:

• Determine whether the students are more safe in a Lock Down or Campus Evacuation procedure.

• If possible, move crosswind, never directly with or against the wind, if it is necessary to evacuate the area.
