INTRODUCTION
This Manual sets out emergency response procedures for specific types of emergencies that may occur at the University of Regina, and is the property of the University of Regina. The Manual is for the exclusive use of University of Regina staff who have been assigned responsibilities in accordance with the University of Reginas Emergency Management Policy, Emergency Closure Policy and Emergency Management Plan. (Yellow tab in manual) The Universitys Emergency Response Procedures are comprised of three distinct sections: The first section contains GENERAL PROCEDURES including the initial response and the responsibilities of Campus Security, Work Control Centre/Heating Plant, Emergency Wardens, trades personnel and the City of Regina Emergency Response Agencies. The second section contains appendices for SPECIFIC RESPONSE PROCEDURES for use by University employees with emergency response duties and responsibilities. The third section contains EMERGENCY CONTACT INFORMATION for University staff with emergency response duties and responsibilities. The GENERAL PROCEDURES contained in Section 1 can be accessed on the University of Regina website at: http://www.uregina.ca/hr/health_and_safety The complete Manual is only available in hard copy. To ensure confidentiality of personal information, only six copies of the manual have been printed. Persons receiving a copy of the Manual are responsible to ensure: The manual is not copied or otherwise distributed to unauthorized persons. The manual is kept up to date with updates provided by Health & Safety, HR Upon leaving an emergency response position, the manual must be returned to Health & Safety, HR. The success of any emergency response is dependent upon the experience, training, and cooperative attitude of the men and women who actively participate in the response. This, or any other Emergency Manual then, is only as good as the people who undertake these various responsibilities.

AUTODIALER
The Regina QuAppelle Health Region Emergency Communications Center, located at 2755 Avonhurst Drive, Regina, provides the Autodialer service to the University of Regina under contract. The Autodialer is a high speed notification system that the University utilizes to make EMERGENCY NOTIFICATIONS (Emergency defined below) to specific lists of personnel and agencies. (Emergency: When a present or imminent event that is caused by accident, fire, explosion, technical failure or by forces of nature and requires prompt coordination and communication of action to protect the health, safety, or welfare of people or to limit damage to property.) Access to the Autodialer is restricted to the following authorized university Units: Campus Security Communications, External Relations Health & Safety, Human Resources The Autodialer contains four separate notification groups as listed here: 1. All call list: Includes President, Vice-Presidents, Associate Vice-Presidents, Deans, Directors, Unit Heads, URSU President, Federated Colleges, Regina Research Park and their identified designates. This list will also include individual positions identified by the committee. 2. Senior Executive list: Includes President, Vice-Presidents, Associate VicePresidents, Deans, Directors, and Unit Heads and their personal assistants/secretaries. 3. Emergency Management Committee: Includes all designated members of the Emergency Management committee and the UEOC support staff. 4. Building Wardens: Includes Chief Building Wardens and Assistant Chief Building Wardens for all U of R facilities.
ASBESTOS DISTURBANCE
INITIAL RESPONSE

ASBESTOS DISTURBANCE
ASBESTOS DISTURBANCE EVALUATOR WILL:
INSPECT and evaluate asbestos incident LOCK room or cordon off area and place signs REPORT back to WORK CONTROL CENTRE OR CENTRAL HEATING PLANT with recommendations for action ARRANGE for immediate cleanup and/or removal if necessary ENSURE that room or area remains locked and cordoned off until all cleanup and repairs are complete SCHEDULE non-emergency repairs or removal that may be necessary
NOTE: When an incident occurs after normal working hours, HEATING PLANT will notify the WORK CONTROL CENTRE first thing the next working day.
SEARCHING FOR SUSPICIOUS PACKAGES If the Incident Command Post/ Emergency Operations Centre determines the need to conduct and search for a suspicious package, the Director of Campus Security or the Director of Health & Safety will initiate a call through the University AUTO-DIALER to contact the Chief Building Wardens and advise them to have the Emergency Wardens work through their Zones having employees search their respective areas. NOTE: Persons who work in the area are best able to recognize things which are out of place, and are thus best suited to search that area. All such assistance will be fully voluntary.

Appendix I:
Assume a low oxygen atmosphere exists when approaching. Do not approach a potentially low oxygen atmosphere alone or without a toxic gas monitor. Only ITC emergency personnel with gas monitor and NMR training may investigate a low oxygen alarm. Do not approach the potentially low oxygen atmosphere if feeling unwell or unsafe. Ensure a second responder remains outside the potentially low oxygen toxic area but within view. If a second responder is not available consider having the Regina Fire Department attend to the scene.
WITH ANY INDICATION OF A MAGNET QUENCH, CALL VARIAN IMMEDIATELY: 1-800-356-4437 Quote instrument serial number: S011790
1. Make sure you have: a) ITX personal gas monitor capable of measuring oxygen (available from GG313). b) Second qualified responder. 2. Ensure gas monitor is operating properly. 3. Ensure personnel are away from the south and west doors leading into GG112, as well as the north entrance to GG112.1 and the north stairwell. 4. Open the south door to GG112 and carefully enter GG112. Slowly approach the NMR lab while monitoring oxygen levels. 5. If the oxygen level falls below 19.5% in GG112 (or you feel unwell in any way), leave the lab immediately and close the door. This signifies a release of helium and/or nitrogen gas from the NMR magnet, which displaces the oxygen. a) The ventilation system in GG112.1 will remove the helium and/or nitrogen gas, but sufficient time must be allotted for this. b) Immediately verify that all entrances to GG112 and GG112.1 are closed.
44
c) Post signs and barriers at all entrances to GG112, GG112.1 and the north stairwell to indicate there has been an NMR magnet quench, and that these areas are oxygen deficient and cannot be entered until further notice. Follow steps 1-5 as well when approaching the north stairwell. d) For the next hour, check these entrances frequently to ensure barriers have not been crossed. e) When an hour has passed, repeat steps 1-5. If oxygen levels are still unsafe, check again in another hour. f) When oxygen levels are safe in GG112 and the north stairwell, proceed to step 6.
6. If oxygen levels are safe in GG112 and the north stairwell, approach the south door to GG112.1 and look into the lab. If oxygen levels are safe but there are visible signs of a magnet quench (venting from the magnet, fog and condensation around the magnet and other equipment), do not enter the lab. Return to step 5. Do not attempt to enter GG112.1 until at least an hour after the magnet stops venting. If there are no signs of a quench, proceed to step 7. 7. If the amount of time specified in step 6 has passed, or there are no signs of a magnet quench, slowly enter GG112.1 while monitoring oxygen levels. a) If oxygen falls below 19.5% in GG112.1, return to step 5. b) If there was a quench but oxygen levels are safe in GG112.1, silence the alarm and survey the room to ensure all conditions are safe according to Varians advice. c) If oxygen levels are safe and there was no quench, the oxygen alarm was false. Silence the alarm and contact work control to arrange for recalibration or repair. Ensure the NMR lab is not used until the oxygen alarm is functioning properly. 8. When the alarm has stopped and conditions are safe, remove all signs and barricades and return the gas monitor to GG313.
