Main Campus Sector Evacuation Procedures 

 
  • Sector Leader Checklist (PDF). Sector leader clipboards containing a walkie-talkie, vest, map, and flashlight are located with each sector leader.
  • Sector Coordinator Checklist (PDF). A sector coordinator clipboard containing a blank checklist, walkie-talkie, vest, maps, and flashlight are located with each sector coordinator.
  1. Upon issuance via the public-address system of an evacuation to shelter area, building evacuation, or activation of the fire alarm, each sector leader is to retrieve the sector clipboard, put on the sector vest, and put the batteries in the walkie-talkie and turn unit on to assigned channel (volume up).
  2. The sector coordinator will retrieve their clipboard, put on the sector vest, and put the batteries in the walkie-talkie and turn unit on to assigned channel (volume up).
  3. Sector coordinator and sector leaders will follow appropriate building evacuation or evacuation to shelter area procedures. If safety permits, close doors to evacuated rooms and leave lights on.
  4. After sector evacuation is complete (either building evacuation or evacuation to shelter areas), report back to the sector coordinator "sector (number) clear". The sector coordinator will respond "sector (number) clear confirmed" to alert you that your transmission was received. The sector coordinator will check off each cleared sector on the Sector Coordinator Checklist.
  5. If a "sector clear" is not received within a reasonable amount of time, the sector coordinator will request a "sector clear status" until one is received from the sector leader. The sector coordinator will report to the incident commander when their master sector is cleared.
  6. If someone is injured, advise the sector coordinator of the situation via the walkie-talkie.
  7. The sector coordinator will report via the walkie-talkie when an "All Clear" situation exists.
  8. Advise evacuees of the "All Clear" status or any other directives given.
  9. Return clipboard and contents (remove batteries from the walkie-talkie) back to its location.
  10. Walkie-talkie units and flashlights should be tested monthly to ensure they are in proper operating condition.
