Monitoring Alert Levels
Here is a new page we have just added to our disaster plan. We think it will be helpful in keeping abreast of threat levels, both local and national, as well as other useful preparedness information. Since risk situations change, both seasonally (e.g. hurricanes) and due to terrorist activity, these websites provide timely warnings.
Alert Level Awareness
The person responsible for maintaining the library’s Disaster Plan (Project Assistant to the Assistant Director of CMAS) is also responsible for monitoring the national and local levels of “Alert” status. For the University of Virginia, we will monitor information listed at the following sites:
Department of Homeland Security
Virginia Department of Emergency Management
University of Virginia’s Critical Incident Management site
The Project Assistant will notify the Assistant Director of CMAS immediately of any change in the alert level or any new information.
