This text has been written for facility managers, safety compliance officers, risk managers, engineers and consultants as a ready guide to emergency response planning and management. Disasters of all kinds can cause unthinkable loss of life and property, and can potentially cripple companies and institutions. Being prepared for such eventualities can play a key role, both in saving lives and in containing damage, downtime and costs. This book covers all aspects of planning for and recovering from a disaster. It includes information on: contingency planning, loss prevention, facility evacuation, working with the media, computer and data protection, bomb threat response, standby power, self-inspection, and more. This is all backed up by a directory of US federal and state emergency management agencies and the ATF offices.
