**EMERGENCY PLANS**

**FOR**

**\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_**

**[PURPOSE]{.underline}**

The primary purpose of this pamphlet is to assist individuals and
organizations in preparing a comprehensive and readily usable plan to
handle emergency situations.

An Emergency Handbook should be tailored to the organization, the
location and the people using it.

This handbook only provides a starting point, and when completed should
include:

-   Management responsibilities during emergencies;

-   Outline of useful organizational structures for emergency
    management;

-   Highlight the type of information that will be needed to plan for
    specific emergencies:

-   Provide action oriented checklist that may be followed.

**[FIRE:]{.underline}**

Fire awareness and safety should be an every day practice. Each employee
should go through his/her area, cleaning out any accumulation of old
papers and boxes paying attention to the storage of flammables;
eliminating unnecessary or dangerous extension cords; watching for
overloaded circuits and using care when smoking. Employees should know
the location of fire extinguishers and hoses in their general area. Most
importantly, employees should know the location of fire exits.

**In case of an evacuation employees should:**

**1. Secure sensitive material.**

**2. Doors and windows should be closed, but unlocked.**

**3. All Electrical items should be unplugged.**

**4. Visitors should be directed/escorted to the nearest exit.**

5.  **The building supervisor will notify everyone where they should
    gather and notify all personnel when it is safe to re-enter the
    building.**

**[BOMB:]{.underline}**

Any person who receives a telephone bomb threat of any nature should
carefully record the circumstances and notify their immediate
supervisor.

The individual receiving the call should stay calm and try to obtain as
much information as possible (see attached form).

The objective is to keep the caller on the phone and develop as much
information as possible. Obviously, at some point the caller will hang
up and at that point, he/she should notify their immediate supervisor.

If an evacuation is ordered, doors and windows should be left open to
minimize the blast effect. Personnel should leave only through exits
that have been thoroughly searched. Employees will be instructed where
to assemble and when they can re-enter the building.

If a search is ordered, each supervisor will dispatch members of his/her
section to search their area.

The following is a guide for quick inspection of your area:

• Search the top of chairs, desk, tables and bookcases.

• Inside of bookcases, including behind books.

• Wastepaper baskets. Underneath all furniture. Remainder of room.

• Outside balconies. Storage areas. Rest rooms -- inside toilets, trash
cans.

• Leave Doors/windows open.

• Report findings to your supervisor or section head.

• Wait for further instructions.

• If an unidentifiable package or object is found,

• DO NOT TOUCH IT. Report the findings immediately to the supervisor or
section head.

• If a bomb is found, the local authorities/Explosive Team should be
called.

In the event of an explosion in the building, remain in your area. Under
no circumstances should you look out your window or proceed to the site
of the explosion. Wait for further instructions.

**[EARTHQUAKE]{.underline}**

In the event of an earthquake, whether at home or the office, the
following procedures should be followed:

Take cover, stand in a strong door way, or under strong furniture. **DO
NOT** try to run outside.

Once the main event is over, evacuate the area to an open area; there
may be additional after shocks. Report to your supervisor. Assist those
who need help.

Do not re-enter buildings until it has been determined that it is safe.

If there is time, turn off all gas appliances, turn off and unplug all
electrical appliances.

At home, you should maintain a supply of food, water, blankets,
flashlight and other emergency items.

If the structure of your building is damaged, be very careful while
making any attempt to assist injured people. The structure is now
unstable and may collapse.

Company personnel should gather in a clear, safe area and begin setting
up a triage station and a command post (CP). **ALL PERSONNEL** must
report their status to the CP and await further instructions. A
combined, organized search of collapsed buildings will be established.

**[PERSONAL SECURITY IN BUCHAREST SURVEILLANCE]{.underline}**

Prior to any attack, either criminal or terrorist, there is a time frame
that the assailant will devote to survey the target. During this time,
the attacker tries to determine routines established by the victim, and
locations where the victim is most vulnerable. If the attacker
determines that the target maintains good security and varies his
routine, it is possible that the assailant will choose another target.
In most cases, the individuals doing the surveillance are new to their
organization and may make simple mistakes. Here are a few things you can
do to help remove your name from their list:

\* Change the times you go to work and return home

(A 30-minute change can drastically impair an attackers plan)

\* Change your routes to and from home/work.

\* Look outside your home for unusual situations before you leave.

\* Before entering your car, walk around it and inspect it for any signs
of tampering.

\* Know your choke points.

BE AWARE OF the following vehicle/individual characteristics that may
indicate surveillance:

\* Vehicles parked in prohibited zones, the same location for an
extended period.

\* Vehicles/people that copy your movements.

\* Vehicles/people moving too fast/slow, making erratic movements or
abrupt stops.

\* Vehicles/people that go slow through an intersection or corner --
then withdraw.

\* Vehicles/people that stop nearby when you stop.

\* Vehicles flashing lights.

\* People that exit their vehicle when you stop.

\* People turning away when observed by you.

\* People hesitating or looking around when entering a building that you
have entered.

\* People running away.

GOLDEN RULE:\
IF YOU SEE SOMEONE TWICE, IT COULD BE SURVEILLANCE.

######### IF YOU SEE SOMEONE THREE TIMES, IT PROBABLY IS SURVEILLANCE!

WHAT TO DO?

If you believe you are being followed, do not confront the individual.
Drive/walk directly to a police station or gendarme.

**[RESIDENTIAL SECURITY TIPS]{.underline}**

Be alert to suspicious persons in your neighborhood and report them to
your Supervisor.

Make sure you have good exterior lighting on all sides of your
residence. Check lighting regularly and replace burned-out bulbs.

Don't open your residence doors to strangers. Speak to them through the
door. If they claim to be police or other officials, contact the
Dispatcher and wait for the mobile patrol unit to arrive. Make sure your
kids and household staff are briefed on how to answer the door.

Unannounced or unidentified visitors should not be admitted into the
home. Vendors, policemen and Embassy repairmen, should be admitted only
if they are properly identified and expected. Repairmen should not be
left unattended in the residence.

Keep foliage away from your windows/entrances to eliminate hiding places
for burglars.

Use your door viewer to identify visitors.

Burglars/Terrorists are always on the alert for an easy way to enter a
residence. Doors, windows and garages should be closed and locked at all
times especially when the residents are away from home, no matter how
short a time.

Never leave doors or windows open when you are sleeping (unless you have
grills).

Don't leave money, jewelry or small high-value items out in the open.
Take photographs of all valuable items and record serial numbers of
valuable items.

Never hide a spare key under a mat or near an entrance to your
residence.

Secure all sliding glass doors and windows to prevent them from being
lifted out of their tracks.

Have a list of emergency phone numbers easily available. All family
members should memorize certain telephone numbers for emergencies and
know how to use the local phones.

Keep a low profile in your neighborhood. Avoid displays of affluence,
and do not list name, title or ranks on residence signs, doors or
doorbell.

Blinds and draperies should be arranged so that movement within the
house is not easily observed from the street.

If you leave your residence during the evening, turn on lights and radio
or TV.

If you plan on being away from your residence on vacation, notify a
colleague so he/she can check your residence while you are away.

Do not schedule workmen to be in your house when you cannot be there.

If a disturbance occurs in the vicinity of your residence, alert police
and stay away from your windows.

Recommended items for your safe haven are as follows:

Telephone, telephone directory, Emergency numbers, flashlight, candles,
Radio-AM/FM, fire extinguisher, miscellaneous tools, food and water.

**[IMPORTANT:]{.underline}** If you encounter a burglary in progress, do
not attempt to stop the burglar. If you are in a protected part of the
house, call the Police

Frequent points of entry are garage doors and windows. If you make it
difficult for a burglar to enter, he will give up and go elsewhere.

Go over these items with your family so they will know what to do in
case of an emergency.

**[AUTOMOBILE SECURITY]{.underline}**

Before getting into your vehicle take a few seconds to inspect your car
for signs of tampering.

Vary your routes to and from work and departure and arrival times by
approximately 30 minutes. Be systematically unsystematic.

Avoid parking in unsecured areas and places that are unlit at night.

Be aware of your surroundings. Check to see who is pulling up along side
of you. Be aware of cars in front and back of you.

Be alert for motorcycles or bicycles stopping next to your car,
especially if there is more than one rider.

Remember that your vehicle is a 2,000 pound- weapon and can be used
effectively against attackers. Be prepared to take action.

While you're driving, be prepared to take evasive actions. Play the
"what if game" and think of what evasive action you would take if the
persons in the car next to you suddenly started shooting at you or made
an attempt to approach your vehicle.

**[RIDING IN A TAXI]{.underline}**

Before getting in, make an obvious point of looking at the license
plate. If possible, have another person make note of the number before
you depart.

**[Don't get into the taxi if :]{.underline}**

The inside door locks and handles are not working.

It is occupied by anyone else in addition to the driver.

License plates are obscured.

**[While you are in route:]{.underline}**

Establish a rapport with your driver.

Do not allow the driver to pick up unknown passengers.

Stay alert.

Be prepared to take evasive actions.

Be prepared to stop the driver and get out if the driver is not using
main streets, if he is driving in the wrong direction, or using alleys
and shortcuts and you are unfamiliar with the area.

**[BUSES AND TRAMS]{.underline}**

Please be alert on crowded buses and trams where pickpockets abound.
Keep handbags/valuables in front of you and watched at all times.

Choose well-lighted, well-traveled areas. If you are stopping to use a
public facility such as a pay phone, gas station or restroom, try to
park in a well-lighted place.

When returning home, be aware of all vehicles and pedestrians. Keep your
house and driveway well-lit Beep your horn and have someone inside turn
on lights or open the door.

Leave enough space between cars at a red light or stop sign to pull away
if necessary.

Don't be distracted by eating, drinking or talking while driving. Losing
your focus on the road and your surroundings could make you an easy
target.

Be careful after a minor rear-end accident. If you are bumped from
behind and you do not feel comfortable exiting your vehicle, motion to
the other driver and drive to the nearest police station or 24 hours
store.

Keep your vehicle locked and, keep the windows rolled up.

When approaching your parked car, have your keys in your hand. Check the
surrounding area for suspicious persons near your car or following you.
If you see a suspicious person, do not attempt to get in your car but
walk to the nearest public place and call for help.

Do not leave your purse or valuables in view while driving or parked.

Plan your route in advance and know something about the area you'll be
driving through. There are some areas that are not safe, day or night.

Always keep your car well maintained and make sure you have plenty of
gas. You don't want to be stranded in an unfamiliar place or alone in an
area where you can't get help.

Never roll down your window to answer questions of passersby. This could
be a pretext for someone to take your vehicle.

**[RULES OF THE ROAD]{.underline}**

**["Night Clubs"]{.underline}**

Many new visitors to Bucharest have become victims of assault after
patronizing local 'night clubs' that offer 'live entertainment'.

The typical report is as follows:

*"I went to a nightclub. There were no signs indicating that there was a
cover charge to get into the establishment. I had one or two beers and
purchased a drink for one of the club's staff members. When I decided to
leave, I was presented a bill for over 3 million ROL. I thought that was
outrageous and refused to pay. The nightclub bouncer took me outside,
threatened me, and forced me to go to the closest ATM machine and
withdraw money from my account to pay the bill."*

In some instances, the victim reports the assault to the police, but
because the victim is here for only a short time, the case is not
brought forward without a complainant. A review of many of these
establishments confirms that there is no cover required as you enter the
club. However, when the drink menu is provided, it clearly shows a cover
charge, sometimes as high as 400,000 ROL per person. Further review of
the menu shows the cost of drinks for the patron as well as for any that
may be offered to members of the club's staff.

**[Personal Documents/Checklist Kit]{.underline}**

-   Current passport for each member of family.

-   Appropriate visa (s) and accreditation documents.

-   Vehicle driver's license.

-   Vehicle technical passport with power of attorney to drive the
    vehicle.

-   Sufficient cash to cover family expenses for reasonable amount of
    time.

-   Credit cards and checkbooks.

-   All necessary country of residence identification papers.

-   Vaccination records.

-   Current inventory of household affects/or video recording of
    household effects for insurance claim purposes.
