Introduction
Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) developed this model Emergency Evacuation andOperationsPlan (EEOP) toassistdepartments inpreparing forbuildingemergencies as expectedandrequiredbyUniversitypolicy,theSeattleFireCode,andtheWashingtonAdministrativeCode(WAC). This plan is intended for use by multiple departments and may be completed as adepartmental or building evacuation plan. For buildingswhich are taller than four stories (HighRiseBuildings),refertoadditionalrequirementsinAppendixP.
Itisexpectedthatdepartmentswillcustomizeandcompletethisplantomeettheirspecificneeds,operations, and locations. Departments and/or colleges with multiple buildings may develop asingleplanfortheirfacilities,aslongasbuildingspecificinformationforeachfacilityisincludedinAppendicesAthroughD.
Review and dialog among multiple departments within a single building and/or individual firezones must be part of the process of completing a building specific EEOP. Staff from EH&S areavailabletoprovidetechnicalassistance,includingreviewingafinaldraftofyourEEOP.
Themodel EEOPwaswritten to complement and supplement the University ofWashington All-HazardsEmergencyManagementPlan(EMP)forcampusoperationsduringlargescaleorcampus-wideemergencies.AcopyoftheUWEMPshouldbemaintainedinyourdepartment.Copiesofthecampusplanareavailable fromtheOfficeofEmergencyManagementandonlineattheirwebsite.ReviewingthecampusEMPmaybehelpfulwhilecompletingtheattachedEEOP.SeeAppendixJformoredetails.

EmergencyEvacuationforPersonswithDisabilities
Background
Thisappendixprovidesageneralguidelineofevacuationproceduresforpersonswhosedisabilitiescouldmake exitingdifficult duringbuilding evacuations. Faculty, staff, students andvisitorswithdisabilities must develop their own facilities’ evacuation plans and identify their primary andsecondaryevacuationroutesfromeachbuildingtheyuse.
PointsofEmphasis
• Befamiliarwithevacuationoptions.
• Seekevacuationassistantswhoarewillingtoassistincaseofanemergency.
• Asksupervisors,instructors,DisabilityResourcesforStudents,DisabilityServicesOffice,orEnvironmentalHealth&Safetyaboutevacuationplansforbuildings.
Most UW buildings have accessible exits at the ground level floor that can be used during anemergency.InbuildingsliketheHealthSciencesCenterorPadelfordHall,peoplecanmoveintotheunaffectedwings of the building rather than exiting.However, inmostUWbuildings peoplewillneed to use stairways to reach building exits. Elevators cannot be used because they have beenshowntobeunsafetouseinanemergencyandinsomebuildingstheyareautomaticallyrecalledtothegroundfloor.
EvacuationDirectorsandEvacuationWardensneedtopre-identifystaff,faculty,andstudentswithdisabilities and their locations. Determine their evacuation options, identify Areas of Refuge,coordinateobtaininganAssistedEvacuationDevice (asneeded–seebelow),anddeterminehowtheywillevacuatefromthebuilding.
Individuals are also encouraged to sign up for UWAlerts on the UWEMwebsite. UWAlertswillbroadcast information electronically during crises or emergencies that may disrupt routine UWcampusoperations.

EvacuationOptionsforPersonswithDisabilities
Personswithoutdisabilitiesmustevacuate to thenearestexit.Personswithdisabilitieshave fivebasicevacuationoptions.
• Horizontalevacuation:Usebuildingexitstotheoutsidegroundlevelorgointounaffectedwingsofmulti-buildingcomplexes.
• Stairwayevacuation:Usestepstoreachgroundlevelexitsfromthebuilding.
• Stay in Place: Unless danger is imminent, remain in a roomwith an exteriorwindow, atelephone, and a solid or fire-resistant door.With this approach, the personmay keep incontactwithemergencyservicesbydialing911andreportinghisorher locationdirectly.Emergency services will immediately relay this location to on-site emergency personnel,who will determine the necessity for evacuation. Phone lines are expected to remain inserviceduringmostbuildingemergencies. If thephone lines fail, the individualcansignalfromthewindowbywavingaclothorothervisibleobject.
• AreaofRefuge:Withanevacuationassistant,movetoanareaofrefugeawayfromobviousdanger.Theevacuationassistant(s)willthengotothebuildingevacuationassemblypointandnotify theon-siteemergencypersonnelof the locationof thepersonwithadisability.Emergencypersonnelwilldetermineiffurtherevacuationisnecessary.
• Assisted Evacuation Device: In the event of a major earthquake or other campus-wideeventthatwouldpreventfirstrespondersfromrespondingquickly,anassistedevacuationdevice such as a chair, can be used by trained personnel to evacuate mobility disabledpersons.

AbouttheUWAll-HazardsEmergencyManagementPlan(EMP)
Background
In June of 2005, the University of Washington published a revised comprehensive EmergencyManagement Plan (EMP) for campus operation during large scale or campus-wide emergencies.CopiesoftheEMPareavailableattheEmergencyManagementwebsitebelow:
http://www.washington.edu/emergency/ep
ThefollowingisasummaryoftheEMP.
TheUWAll-HazardsEmergencyManagementPlan
The EMP provides guidelines for the management of the immediate actions and operationsrequiredtorespondtoanemergencyordisaster.TheoverallprioritiesoftheUniversityduringadisaster are the protection of lives, live assets, valuable research processes, property, thecommunity,andtheenvironment.Theoverallobjectiveistorespondtoemergencyconditionsandmanage the process of restoring University academic and research programs and services. Thisplan represents the Campus Emergency Management Plan, which encompasses the facilities,servicesandtheadministrationoftheUWSeattlecampus.
PurposeoftheEmergencyManagementPlan
This plan provides themanagement structure, key responsibilities, emergency assignments, andgeneral procedures to follow during and immediately after an emergency. The University hasestablishedthisplantoaddresstheimmediaterequirementsforamajordisasteroremergencyinwhichnormaloperationsareinterruptedandspecialmeasuresmustbetakento:
• Saveandprotectthelivesofstudents,patients,employees,andthepublic.• Manageimmediatecommunicationsandinformationregardingemergencyresponse
