Reminder: Fire Department Safety Exercise today ....

SNF Lab Members and CIS Building Occupants:

This is a reminder that Palo Alto Fire and Campus EH&S Emergency
Response teams will be here starting at noon to simulate and practice
their response to a corrosive gas leak.

We believe that there will be NO actual alarms sounded and there will be
NO building evacuation as a result of this exercise. If, however, you
do see a lot of activity in the loading dock including fire trucks, fire
personnel and other emergency responders wearing breathing apparatus and
other protective equipment, do not be alarmed .... this is a planned
part of the drill. Most of the activity will be in the loading dock
area .... although fire equipment may be stationed at several locations
close to the building.

If fire alarms sound, toxic gas alarms sound, or you feel an earthquake
during this time .... please evacuate promptly as that should be treated
as a part of a real incident.

Thank you for your cooperation,

John
