  2. Agenda • Earthquakes 101 • Overview of Stanford Emergency Management Program • Introduction to the BAT Program • ATC-20 Evaluation Training • Virtual Campus Tour

  3. Pacific-North America Plate Boundary CascadiaSubduction Zone North American Plate 1700 M~9.0 Juan de Fuca Plate 1906 M=7.8 San Andreas Fault 1857 M=7.9 4.8 cm/year Pacific Plate 3

  5. The 19th century was extremely active... …the 21st century may be, as well.

  6. Campus Emergency Plan:GOALS/SCOPE • GOALS: • Protect life safety • Secure critical infrastructure and facilities • Resume teaching and research programs • SCOPE: • Plan based on all hazards approach • addresses natural as well as man made events: • earthquakes, hazardous materials releases, floods, fires/ explosions, extended power outages, hazardous materials, infectious disease or mass casualty event

  7. Disaster Levels • Level 1 • Minor incident handled with local resourcesExample: Workplace injury • Level 2 • Incident involving a building or larger area and requires outside assistance (police, fire etc.)Example: Power Outage, Building Fire • Level 3 • Area wide disaster involving Stanford and the surrounding areaExample: Earthquake

  8. Campus Emergency Plan:STRUCTURE • The Plan identifies a management structure for coordinating and deploying resources: • EMT: Emergency Management Team • EOC: Emergency Operation Center • STAT: Situation Triage & Assessment Team • DOCs: Department Operation Centers

  9. Activation Matrix ? Automatic activation Activated if needed ? Activated only under extenuating circumstances

  10. Stanford Emergency Management Team Organization DOC 2 DOC 3 Remaining DOCs DOC 1 Dept Dept Dept Unit University Emergency Operations Center Command Team Operations & Planning Intelligence & Data Management Logistics & Finance Public Information DOC: Department Operations Center

  11. DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS CENTER (DOC) RESPONSIBILITIES DOCs have clear responsibilities for: Organizing a DOC headquarter facility staffed with appropriate leadership • Securing preparedness education & training for their units • Working with the University EOC to coordinate emergency resources, actions, and information • Implementing disaster program and cost recovery measures • Developing Continuity Plans • Mitigating local hazards DOCs are fundamental to Stanford’s disaster plan, and must have appropriate leadership • DOCs get technical support from EM to help develop/maintain their emergency plans

  12. Campus Emergency PlanEmergency Response Priorities • Buildings used by dependant populations • residences, occupied classrooms and offices, childcare centers, occupied auditoriums, arenas and special event venues • Buildings critical to health and safety • medical facilities, police/fire buildings, emergency shelters, food supplies, sites containing potential hazards • Facilities that sustain the response • Classroom and research buildings (unoccupied) • Administrative buildings (unoccupied)

  13. Any questions about the Campus Emergency Plans?

  14. Post-EarthquakeBuilding Assessment Team (BAT) Training 2011

  15. BAT Training 2011 • Earthquake Building Assessment Teams • 600+ trained BATs after 2010 training • Always need new BATs • Annual training for new BATs • Biennial refresher training for returning BATs (next in 2013)

  16. BAT Responsibilities • After a quake, you are giving the University a “first look” at the campus buildings • Coordinate and communicate with your DOC and/or EOC at the Faculty Club • Outside examination of buildings only

  17. BAT Priorities • Your safety is our #1 priority (and it should be yours too) • If on campus, pair up with another BAT member and begin your assessment immediately • If no other BAT members available, report to your DOC for an assignment • If after hours, report to campus (your DOC) when it is safe to do so and you have taken care of your personal responsibilities

  18. What Do BATs Do? (cont.) • BATs report what they observe using the Stanford University Incident Report Form • You will learn today how to distinguish between significant and insignificant damage • You will learn what to do with the information you collect.

  19. Posting the Building • BATs post a preliminary sign (if it is safe to do so) that indicates the building has been assessed. • On every entrance to the building!

  20. Building Signs to be Posted

  21. Make Your Report • Know ahead of time to whom and where you report • You are not finished until you make your report

  22. Become Familiar with your DOC Team

  23. Inspect local Buildings • Your building • Other buildings in your organization as assigned by your DOC • Other buildings on campus as assigned by the EOC • If your DOC has completed all your buildings, check with Residential & Dining Enterprises to see if they need help with assessing housing units

  24. What BATs Do NOT Do • BATs do NOT place themselves at risk • BATs do NOT go into buildings; assess from the outside only • BATs do NOT make engineering decisions or inspections • BATs do NOT post official red, yellow, green signs; engineers do that

  25. BAT Member ID and Tools

  26. BAT Pocket Guide

  27. BAT Member Tools • BAT-Pack • BAT ID Hardhat, Vest, Name Tag • ATC Manual • Flashlight (be sure to add batteries) • Documents: Incident Report Forms, Building Posting Sign, BAT Pocket Guide, Caution Tape
