CPP Exam Preparation Emergency Management

1. CPP Exam Preparation Emergency Management

2. Exam Overview: 6% of exam is based on the �emergency management� subject area. Tests knowledge of implementation, plan development, and types of emergencies. Exam reference publications: Emergency Planning Handbook Handbook of Loss Prevention & Crime Prevention Protection of Assets Manual ( Chap. 10, 13, 18, 22, 26) Introduction to Security

3. Plan Development Primary Considerations

4. Why Emergency Planning ? 3 Primary Goals : Protection Of Lives Protection Of Property Restoration Of Operations �Be Prepared� -- Consider probabilities of each type of disaster occurring. Government & industry must share burden of protecting public.

5. Threat Scenarios Most serious industrial hazards : Fire Explosion Most common emergencies : Fire Bomb threat Labor dispute

6. Stages of Emergency Planning Anticipate Emergency Provide for Responsive Action Return to Normal Operations

7. Planning Basics Emergency plans should be in writing Follow KISS principle -- provide specific & precise actions No new organizations created! Identify who can declare emergency Identify the Emergency Coordinator Ensure continuity of leadership

8. Planning Basics Basic plan has 3 essential elements: Authority Types of emergencies Execution Outline plant shutdown procedures Evacuation routes must remain consistent for all threats Test plan annually -- brief every employee!

9. Advanced Planning Mutual Aid Association Cooperative organization of industrial, business and local government emergency services, united by a voluntary agreement to assist each other during an emergency. Identifies pooled community resources Provides for standardized equipment & training Requires substantial funding

10. Advanced Planning Create an Emergency Command Center : Maps/Procedure charts/Call-up lists/MAA�s Back-up power and communications gear Disaster response and medical gear Identify PR person to coordinate media EDP backup sites-- hot, warm, cold Preserve vital records (2%) -- bylaws, board minutes, stock transactions, financial data

11. Types of Emergencies Natural and Man-Made

12. Natural Disasters Tornadoes 5 classifications based on wind speeds (F1-F5) of 200-400 mph. Ground speeds of 30-70 mph. Width up to a mile. Travel up to 30 miles. � Tornado Watch� : tornado expected � Tornado Warning� : tornado sighted in area Thunderstorms �Severe� : heavy rain, hail, & winds > 50 mph �Severe watch� : projected winds > 75 mph

13. Natural Disasters Floods �Flash flood watch� : flooding is possible �Flash flood warning� : flooding is about to occur Hurricanes (heavy rains w/ winds >74 mph) 5 categories based on wind speeds �Watch� : expected within 36 hours �Warning� expected within 24 hours

14. Natural Disasters Snow storm �Heavy snow warning� : 4�/12 hrs or 6�/24 hrs �Severe blizzard warning� : >45mph winds & <10 F temperature (blizzard is >35 mph winds) Earthquakes Unpredictable. Can last as long as 5 minutes. If inside -- stay there. Seek cover under heavy furniture in the center of the building . �TSUNAMI� are tidal waves caused by underwater earthquakes.

15. Man-Made Disasters Plant fires Bomb threats Labor unrest Terrorism Sabotage Chemical/radiological accidents Transportation accidents Public demonstrations & civil disturbances

16. Man-Made Disasters : Plant Fire Causes are preventable: Carelessness Ignorance Most are electrical in origin Most fatalities are a result of toxic gas inhalation, followed by death from smoke inhalation and high temperatures.

17. Man-Made Disasters : Plant Fire The Fire Triangle : heat, fuel, oxygen, & a chemical reaction Fire Classifications: Class A: ash-producing fire (paper, rags, wood) Class B : volatile fluid fire (gas, oil, grease) Class C : electrical fire Class D :combustible metals (magnesium)

18. Man-Made Disasters : Plant Fire Extinguishing agents : Class A : Water or water fog Class B : Foam agents in water or �range guard� Class C : CO2 extinguisher Class D : Sand or PKP Sprinkler systems Type : Wet pipe & Dry pipe Operate at temperatures between 130-160 F

19. Man-Made Disasters : Plant Fire Fire sensor systems : 4 basic fire stages Ionization detector : no-smoke incipient stage Photoelectric smoke detector : smoldering stage Infrared flame detector : visible flame stage Thermal detector : significant heat stage Develop MAA�s to cope with major fires Key to effective fire fighting is quick response and rapid containment

20. Man-Made Disasters : Bomb Threats Security nightmare vs. a 98% hoax Create a �Bomb Threat Checklist� (ATF) Who? What? Where? When ? Why? Get description of voice & background noises Security options (Who decides ?): Ignore Search, then decide on evacuation Partial search and evacuation Complete evacuation and then search

21. Man-Made Disasters : Bomb Threats A search must be made after every call ! Evacuation decision based on : Whether bomb actually found. Other compelling evidence bomb threat is real. Bomb threat notification : Search and evacuation parties Local authorities FBI and other federal agencies Medical facilities, neighbors, utilities

22. Man-Made Disasters : Bomb Threats Access control over the entry of personnel and material is the key countermeasure C3 very important during a search If suspicious object found : Only EOD personnel touch or use bomb blanket to isolate IED. Establish 300� clear zone including the floors above and below. Leave doors and windows open to vent blast

23. Man-Made Disasters :Strike NLRA/Wagner Act governs strikes : Strike: concerted refusal by employees to work in an attempt to force an employer to meet certain demands. �Economic strike� requires 60 day notice. �Unfair labor practice� : Allegations employer violated fair labor practices. Striking employees must be allowed to return to work (often occurs suddenly).

24. Man-Made Disasters : Strike Key management decision : Shut down or continue business operations ? Strike preparation (TIPS approach) Know direct/indirect costs Know NRLB rulings requirements Early preparation/intervention is best Security�s role must be carefully defined. Work with local police to avoid violence.

25. Man-Made Disasters : Terrorism Letter bombing & kidnapping are common forms. Create mail room procedure for handling suspicious objects. If kidnapping occurs : Use pre-established duress code to signal. Victims should cooperate & remember all. Contact local law enforcement agency. Ransom payment needs corporate approval.

26. FEMA: Federal Planners Federal Emergency Management Agency Ensures continuity of government actions and directs the mobilizing of resources in response to national emergencies National Warning System (NAWAS) 3 Command Centers (24X7) in located Colorado Springs; Denton, TX; Olney, MD. Loudspeaker/radio signals : Alert/Attention signal--steady sound Attack warning--short wavering blasts.
