4 4 1 School staff are aware that they are expected to stay on the job as disaster service workers. B. PHYSICAL & ENVIRONMENTAL RISK REDUCTION Our school buildings are strong enough for earthquake safety. We have fastened tall and heavy furnishings that could fall during earthquake shaking and could kill or injure people. We have secured furnishings and equipment that could slide during earthquake shaking and could kill or injure people. We have limited, isolated and secured hazardous materials. Our exit routes are marked and are kept clear. 6. We have fire extinguishers in place and maintained regularly. 7. We have emergency lighting for areas where needed during school hours. C. RESPONSE CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES Teachers and staff know how to use a fire extinguisher. Students have practiced Drop, Cover, and Hold On in their classrooms, and building evacuation. Students know the 4 rules for building evacuation: Don t Talk! Don t Push! Don t run! Don t turn back! Students know that if they are outside a classroom they should exit to the assembly area and NOT go back inside. Students in science labs know how to extinguish flames and isolate hazardous materials that may be in use during an earthquake. 6. We have the following emergency supplies for students and staff to last for at least 24 hours: Sufficient drinking water Dry food (Biscuits etc) emergency lighting first aid supplies alternate transportation shelter sanitation supplies

5 5 EARTHQUAKE DRILL SCENARIO (Drill below is based upon GREAT ASSAM Shake Out 1950 ) The drill will be based on a hypothetical scenario for a likely high magnitude earthquake occurring throughout the State of Assam and affect all areas of our State. Intense shaking will begin at [TIME] and will last for 40 seconds. There will be at least one strong aftershock within 15 minutes. The scenario for the drill tells us that electrical power, water, gas and sewer systems have failed in many areas. The school s telephone system is inoperable. Traffic comes to a halt as the roads and bridges collapses. Numerous fires have started due to fallen electrical lines and explosions caused by gas cylinders. The Principal of the School declares a state of emergency and orders staff to remain at their sites and shelter all students at schools until they can be reunited with a parent or guardian. Police and Fire Departments are too busy with emergency calls and dispatchers will not say if or when units will respond. School staff must assume that they will be on their own to shelter and care for students and staff for the next 24 hours. EMERGENCY DRILL PREPARATION FOR FACULTY AND STAFF Prepare yourself before the drill Check that the School Emergency Evacuation Route map is placed with clear visibility in your room. On it mark your room clearly in a contrasting colour. If you do not have a copy, please obtain one from the school office. Classroom teachers may consider keeping a blanket, supply of bottled water, non-perishable food or snacks and other supplies in your room in the event an emergency requires a sustained lock-down. Confirm whether you will have any special duties. Get to know your friends in neighboring classes. Check that you know the location of your fire extinguisher and recall the acronym to remind you how to use it: P.A.S.S. Pull the pin, aim at the base of the fire, squeeze the nozzle and sweep at the base of the fire. Plan a quiet activity that students can do in the assembly area in the event of a real emergency or a drill. DO NOT LEAVE THE CAMPUS UNTIL THE SCHOOL PRINCIPAL / TEACHER ASK YOU TO DO SO! Prepare your students Encourage your students to take this drill very seriously. Practice a Drop, Cover, and Hold On drill, having students hold their position for 45 seconds. You may count together: one-one hundred, Drop down to knees and make yourselves small. Cover your face, head and neck, closing your eyes. Keep your body under or below level of desk/table/chairs, with your back to windows. If outside, get clear of buildings, power lines, trees, light poles and other dangers, drop down to your knees and cover your head and neck. Make sure that your students know the 4 rules for building evacuation: Don t Talk! Don t Push! Don t run! Don t turn back! Students should know that if there is an earthquake when they are outside of a classroom (during break or lunch or if they are somewhere), they should exit with the nearest class and should NOT go back inside. If they are between classes, they should assemble in the outdoor emergency assembly area with their next period class. Teacher in science labs should demonstrate to students how to extinguish any Flames and isolate any hazardous materials in use. Review the Emergency Evacuation Routes. Prepare 4 monitors who will work as friends and lead the way, carefully checking to make sure that the route is clear.
