A catl threatening a bombing action is received by a Switchboard operator. While the operator is still on the line with the caller; the security officer is alerted by a prearranged signal and monitors the call.
.
The security officer makes an evaluation of the threat and contacts the responsible management official. A decision is made to evacuate and search the threatened building.
-
Together, the security officer and the decision making management representatives constitute the command center. Appropriate orders are issued to activate evacuation and search plans in the target building.
.
Command center requests that the command center truck, which also contains evacuation and search equipment, be driven to the target building and parked in a predesignated location.
.
The security officer alerts law enforcement or public safety agencies and medical teams, picks up his portable radio transceiver, and proceeds to the mobile command center vehicle, where he is joined by management representatives. By the time the control personnel have arrived at the vehicle, the evacuation has been started and the search teams are picking up their equipment.

Evacuation
- Risk of Injury. As a general rule, the easiest area in which to plant a bomb is often in the shrubbery surrounding GaovrlaingeOr in a Car an a parking lot. If personnel are evacuated out of a building, they may be increasing rather than decreasing their risk. of injury. In the same way, the most likely place to conceal a bomb inside is in an area to which the public has the easiest access. Therefore, any evacuation that requires personnel to move through public areas such as halls near restrooms, waiting rooms, or lobbys increase the risk of injury during any detonation.
