[All_jlab_accounts] JLab to Conduct an Emergency Response Exercise on June 11

[deborah magaldi]

An Active Threat in the Workplace response exercise will take place at 
Jefferson Lab on June 11. To prepare for the exercise, it may be helpful 
to review the FBI's Active Shooter Event quick reference guide 
<http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cirg/active-shooter-and-mass-casualty-incidents/active-shooter-event-quick-reference-guide-04-29-14>and 
the ES&H Manual, Ch. 3510, Appendix T5 "Active Threat Emergency 
Procedure <http://www.jlab.org/ehs/ehsmanual/3510T5.htm>."

Individuals and work centers on the Accelerator Site, and individuals at 
the ARC and SURA Residence Facility will be EXEMPT from this exercise. 
Everyone else at the lab, including the lab's Security personnel, should 
plan on participating in or responding to the exercise.

Everyone at the lab, except those who are EXEMPT, will be expected to 
react to and participate in the exercise based on where they are, what 
is going on around them, and any exercise input they may receive.

JLab will use its Site-Wide Alert communication tools (email, pagers, 
Cisco phone text messages) and the Public Address tool (real-time verbal 
announcements over Cisco phones) as appropriate to communicate with the 
lab community during the event.

All messaging -- pertaining to the exercise scenario -- will be clearly 
identified as an EXERCISE MESSAGE.

If anyone asks you about the activities underway or what you are doing, 
please respond that you are participating in an emergency response 
EXERCISE that includes participation by the Newport News Police and Fire 
Departments.

If you receive queries from the news media or the general public, direct 
them to Public Affairs at 269-5102 or email jlabinfo at jlab.org 
<mailto:jlabinfo at jlab.org>

All activities you see and hear during this training and response 
exercise are meant to SIMULATE a real situation. Exercise officials -- 
wearing yellow or orange vests -- will control and moderate the exercise 
scenario. Please try to stay calm and respond to the exercise scenario 
as if the situation were real.

Should an actual emergency occur during the exercise, the exercise will 
be terminated so that we can respond to the actual event.

Thank you,

Tina Menefee

Emergency Manager
