FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS The following are the revised procedures for Fire Alarm and Evacuation: 1. The sounding of the fire alarm bells throughout the building requires all persons to immediately vacate the building in an orderly manner. Whether the alarm is real, or a drill, it must be acted upon immediately and in the same manner. 2. DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS! 3. All instructors and supervisory personnel are divided into two groups with the largest group assuming the responsibility of leading the students and general public in their area to the assigned building exit and clear of the exit and building. The other group of instructors and supervisory personnel is responsible for the checking of each area to assure that all washrooms, classrooms and shops are empty and that all equipment and machinery are shut down and that all doors and windows are closed. The Fire Safety Director or his delegate shall receive reports from each area confirming that it is cleared. 4. The premises may not be re-entered before the Fire Chief or his delegate gives the all clear signal, this consists of three short bursts of the fire alarm and until these ar§ heard the building must remain empty. 5. Handicapped persons who cannot negotiate stairs on their own should be left in the stairway with another person, and their location reported to the Fire Safety Director of the Deputy Fire Safety Director.
