Bomb threats usually occur by telephone.
The person receiving a bomb threat call should remain calm and attempt to obtain as much information as possible from the caller by using the checklist printed in the "Crital Resource Manual " manual available from the Special Investigative Unit. The checklist can also be downloaded and printed out.

Authorities will be responsible for building evacuation.
If you should spot a suspicious object, package, etc., report it to authorities, but under no circumstances should you touch it, tamper with it, or move it in any way.
If instructed to evacuate, move a safe distance away from the building (a minimum of 100 yards). If inclement weather conditions exist, you may move to another building a safe distance away. Do not reenter until instructed that it is safe to do so.
Do not pull fire alarms or activate radio systems or other electronic equipment. |
