EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN
Southern Illinois University Edwardsville
APPROVED:
Chancellor Date
Vice Chancellor for Administration Date
Director of University Police Date
INTRODUCTION
This plan is meant to provide a framework for University officials to manage emergency and disaster situations on campus and to coordinate efforts with other public safety, local government, and state and federal officials for the protection of lives, property, and the operations of the University. The plan is closely linked with county and state plans, and is based on a realistic assessment of potential hazards that could affect the campus and an assessment of existing capabilities to respond to those situations. This document does not cover every situation; it does, however, supply broad administrative guidelines necessary to cope with most campus emergencies.
PURPOSE
Using all available resources in the most effective manner, the Emergency Management Plan predetermines to the extent possible, actions to be taken by the University to attain the following:
A. Prevent and minimize injuries to University members and visitors
B. Prevent and minimize disruption of University operations
C. Prevent and minimize property damage
D. Respond effectively to natural disasters and other emergencies
E. Serve as the media representative of the University
F. Provide education to the University community on natural and manmade disasters, and other emergencies
G. Provide for rapid recovery from an emergency
H. Coordinate emergency plans with University departments and external agencies
I. Provide for psychological services to meet trauma needs after the emergency
J. Meet regulatory obligations
I. LEGAL AUTHORITY
Legal authority to undertake the development of the emergency plan and subsequent actions in an emergency derives from Public Law 93-288 and the Illinois Emergency Management Act 20 ILCS 3305.
The Illinois Emergency Interim Executive Succession Act provides the basis for delegation of emergency authority to ensure that specific emergency-related legal authorities can be exercised by appointed leadership, or their designated successors.
During emergency situations the line of succession for the University is:
• Chancellor
• Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs
• Vice Chancellor of Administration
• Director of University Police or Director of Emergency Management and Safety (only if it is a non-law enforcement emergency and the Emergency Operations Team has been activated)
APPLICATION
This plan applies to all faculty, staff, employees, students, and visitors. It encompasses all buildings and grounds owned and operated by the University.
SITUATIONS AND ASSUMPTIONS
A. Situations
1. The SIUE student population for the Fall Semester of 2007 is approximately 13,398. Resident student population includes four Residence Halls and the Cougar Village residence area, totaling nearly 3,500. In addition, SIUE employs approximately 2,300 Faculty and Staff members.
2. SIUE is located on 2,660 acres of wooded hills, 25 miles northeast of St. Louis, Missouri, and approximately 4 miles from downtown Edwardsville, Illinois, a community of about 16,000. The intersection of Interstates 270 and 255 are located near the southwest edge of the campus while Interstates 55, 70 and 64 are also within a few miles. Illinois Highway 157 connects the University to Edwardsville, the county seat of Madison County. The Norfolk Southern Railroad maintains a major rail line near the northwest edge of the Campus and a natural gas pipeline runs along the northern boundary of the Campus.
3. Southern Illinois University Edwardsville can experience the following hazards:
a. Natural Hazards–fire, flood, earthquake, severe storm, tornado, winter storm.
b. Technological Hazards–terrorism, civil disorder, explosion, hazardous materials, transportation accident, utility failure.
c. War Related Hazards–chemical warfare, nuclear warfare, missile/weapon accident.
4. Known risk areas have been identified (flood prone areas, hazardous materials storage) to enable administration to evaluate at-risk areas and individuals. Evacuation will be weighed against in-place sheltering.
5. Southern Illinois University Edwardsville is not in the Nuclear Power Facility 10 mile emergency planning zone.
6. In addition to the fixed facilities used to store hazardous materials, such materials are routinely transported via the highway and rail systems in close proximity to SIUE property. Because of the prevailing westerly winds, SIUE is therefore vulnerable to a hazardous material incident. A listing and location of hazardous materials on campus is maintained by Emergency Management and Safety.
7. Areas of SIUE are located in flood prone areas as determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
B. Assumptions
1. All administration and staff having a role in emergency management are familiar with the appropriate sections of the plan.
2. While outside assistance (Mutual Aid Agreements) would be available in most large-scale disaster situations facing the University, it is necessary to plan for and be able to carry out disaster response and short-term recovery operations with and without mutual aid assistance.
3. The mutual aid and other related assistance described in the plan would be available within a reasonable amount of time.
4. Should City, County, State or Federal government officials arrive to assist, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Administration will act in the best interest of the University and University Community in seeking advice and assistance and in retaining or relinquishing overall control of the situation.
ADMINISTRATION AND COMPLIANCE
The administration of and compliance with this Emergency Management Plan is the responsibility of the Director of Emergency Management and Safety. The Emergency Management Plan will be maintained and updated by Emergency Management and Safety under the direction of the Director of Emergency Management and Safety. The University will regularly conduct a tabletop, functional or full scale exercise to test the planning and operational components of the University Emergency Management Plan.
CLASSIFICATIONS OF EMERGENCIES
The Director of University Police and Director of Emergency Management and Safety are the designated Campus Emergency Directors during any major emergency or disaster. The following classifications of emergencies are provided as guidelines to assist the campus emergency staff in determining the appropriate level of response:
Levels of Emergency Response
Level 1 – Minor Emergency: A minor department or building incident that can be resolved by the responding service unit with existing University resources. (Example: Facilities Management is called to respond to a broken water pipe.)
Level II – Major Emergency: Any event that affects an entire building or buildings and that will disrupt the overall operations of the University. (Example: A Building Fire or Chemical Spill during which outside emergency services will probably be required.) Level II emergencies may also include imminent events that may develop into a Major Emergency or Disaster. (Example: An extended power outage or severe storm.) The lead duty officer, the Director of University Police, or the Director of Emergency Management and Safety will seek approval from the Chancellor or Vice Chancellor for Administration to activate the Emergency Operations Center.
Level III – Disaster: A catastrophic event or occurrence that has taken place and has seriously impaired or halted the operations of the University and possibly the surrounding communities. (Example: A Tornado or Earthquake) In some cases, mass personnel casualties and severe property damage may be sustained. A coordinated effort of all campus-wide resources is insufficient to effectively control the situation. Outside emergency services will be essential. In all disaster cases, an Emergency Operations Center will be activated by the Director of Emergency Management and Safety, and the appropriate support and operational plans will be executed. The lead duty officer, the Director of University Police, or the Director of Emergency Management and Safety will seek approval from the Chancellor or Vice Chancellor for Administration to activate the Emergency Operations Center.

PRIORITIES:
• The health, safety, and well being of people is Southern Illinois University Edwardsville’s highest priority.
• After the University acts to protect the safety of individuals, University facilities, buildings and property are the next highest priority, followed by private property that may be affected by the situation.
• In the acute stage of an emergency, the University’s lowest priority is the return to normal operations. However, after the situation is stabilized and the security of people and property has been assured, the primary goal of the University will be to return to normal operations.
DECLARING A CAMPUS STATE OF EMERGENCY
The authority to declare a campus state of emergency rests with the Chancellor upon recommendation from the Vice Chancellor of Administration and the Director of Emergency Management and Safety and/or the Director of University Police. When this declaration is made, access to the campus may be limited to registered students, faculty, staff, and employees at the discretion of the Director of University Police and the Director of Emergency Management and Safety. Those who cannot present proper identification showing their legitimate business on campus may be asked to leave the campus. Unauthorized persons remaining on campus may be subject to arrest in accordance with Illinois State Statutes.
NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 requires the adoption of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) by State and local organizations as a condition for Federal preparedness assistance by FY 2005. SlUE has adopted NIMS for responding to emergency incidents. (See Appendix 19)
1. NIMS provides a flexible framework that facilitates government and private entities at all levels working together to manage domestic incidents. This flexibility applies to all phases of incident management, regardless of cause, size, location, or complexity.
2. NIMS provides a set of standardized organizational structures, as well as requirements for processes, procedures, and systems designed to improve operability.
III. MUTUAL AID
Mutual Aid agreements exist with the City of Edwardsville (much of SIUE is within the corporate limits of the City of Edwardsville), Village of Glen Carbon, City of Alton, City of East St. Louis, Madison and St. Clair Counties, and various agencies of the State of Illinois.
