Anytime a fire alarm is sounded on the floor on which you are located, you should immediately evacuate via the stairways to the predesignated evacuation destination point for that floor, and await instructions. A decision will be made, based on the nature of the emergency, whether it is necessary to evacuate individuals in the stairwells. If evacuation is necessary, persons will be evacuated via an Evacu-Trac chair or other means. This will automatically notify GSA, the GSA LEB, and the Kansas City, Missouri Fire Department. Occupants not directly affected by a fire emergency should remain on the floor on which they are located and await verbal information communicated via the public address system, or other means.
Most bomb threats are oral threats, usually made by telephone.
An essential tool for bomb threat management is the Telephone Bomb Threat Checklist. A copy of the checklist is included as the last page of this Attachment and should be maintained under office telephones for use in documenting a bomb threat call. Information acquired by the recipient is vitally important to officials in evaluating and acting upon a threat. Periodic review of the Telephone Bomb Threat Checklist will aid you in acquiring knowledge about the type of information you should try to obtain. A recipient of a bomb threat should immediately report the threat to the GSA LEB, telephone 426-2360.
