2.16 Response to Specific Emergency Events
Below is a list of unplanned events that may occur during the deconstruction project. This list
may not be all encompassing, but represents "events" related to similar projects. These events
include:
• Fire or explosion
• Power failure
• Structural failure
• Worker injury or illness
2.16.1 Fire or Explosion
In the event of an explosion or a fire, the SSO shall immediately:
1. Call 911
2. Initiate building evacuation procedures as outlined in Section 2.15 of this
HASP
3. Meet First responders at the pre-designated location (unless circumstances
dictate otherwise, it is the security desk at the Building) for briefing on the

Should there be a work stoppage in a certain area due to a fire or an explosion, work will not
resume until the SSO verifies that appropriate corrective actions have been taken.

containment isolation activities (e.g. both the Personnel and Waste Load Out

3. All containment isolation barriers are to remain secure until the required
negative pressure has been re-established.
