Shelter-in-place is used during inclement/severe weather and specific outdoor hazardous materials releases. If an incident requires individuals to shelter-in-place, faculty, students, staff, or department head/designee will prepare to shelter-in-place.

SHELTER IN PLACE GUIDE

Students/staff/faculty will remain in the buildings with windows/doors closed. (Ventilation systems may be shut off). Generally, the following applications should be followed:

1. Faculty and staff are to communicate with people to remain indoors.
2. Ensure individuals with disabilities are assisted in getting indoors.
3. Close windows and doors.
4. Stay away from windows, obstacles, and exterior
5. Use whichever communication device you have available to keep abreast of updates regarding the hazard.
6. Remain sheltered-in-place until the weather has improved or in the case of a hazardous materials incident, it has been mitigated; in both instances, Â鶹¹ÙÍø Police and the Miner Alert System may be used to notify when it is safe to carry on normal activities.
7. WARNING: Extreme situations may require sheltering in place for lengthy periods.
