During some types of emergencies, such as a tornado, severe thunderstorm, or a release of hazardous materials outside the facility, it is safer to shelter in place rather than evacuate.
- Immediately cease all operations.
- Confine hazardous materials and turn off oxygen/flammable gases.
- Shut all doors behind you.
- Do not block emergency exits.
- Move to a designated SIP location or interior room with few or no windows.
- Remain in your SIP location until you receive an “All Clear” message or until the severe weather warning expires.
