Washington’s Critical Incident Planning & Mapping System Presented by: Bruce Kuennen, Manager Teri Herold-Prayer, School Mapping Coordinator
BACKGROUND / HISTORY OF WASHINGTON MAPPING PROGRAM • Critical Incident Planning and Mapping System (CIPMS) began in 2001 • Program authorized by statute, standards written, vendor chosen from nationwide RFP in 2003 • Software is called Rapid Responder • Completed the mapping of every public K-12 school in the state in 2009 • 18 community colleges mapped last year, 7 more funded for this year • Also mapped over 100 critical infrastructure sites, public buildings
MAPPING IS A PROGRAM, NOT JUST A PIECE OF SOFTWARE • It succeeds because of collaboration • Brings first responders and facility officials (e.g., school principals) together to plan before an incident occurs • Pre-planning saves response time • Saving response time saves lives
WHAT IS MAPPED IN WA? • School Campuses • K12 – Public – 2,100 schools (2,000 sites) • Community Colleges – 20 of 35, funding to do 7 more) • Higher Ed – None (but Husky Stadium, Hec Ed) • County Courthouses, Other Government Buildings • Primarily in Thurston & Spokane Counties • SeaTac Airport • Qwest & SAFECO Fields • Other Critical Infrastructure Key Resources (CIKR) • One Hospital in Spokane County • Public Schools on Tribal Lands

STORIES • Spokane: Lewis and Clark HS, September 2003, school shooting incident resolved without loss of life. • Vancouver: Evergreen HS, December 2008, mapping system used by three schools, fire department, and law enforcement dispatch agency to address bomb threat / suspicious devices incident. Pre-planning effectively executed—for example, students at the HS were not allowed to use their cars to evacuate; they were escorted to the pre-planned evacuation spot and bussed to safety from there. • Flooding: During January 2009 flooding, 22 police and other emergency response agencies accessed the mapping program at least 54 times. The program was used by emergency responders to assess school bus transportation needs and road closures.
