EXPRESSIVE ACTIVITY: TCC and the Chesapeake Student Center promote the free exchange of ideas while maintaining the safe, effective, and efficient operation of the college. The Expressive 24 | P a g e JULY 2015 PROCEDURES Activity Policy applies to all buildings, grounds, and other spaces owned or controlled by Tidewater Community College. It provides for expressive activities by all students, student organizations, and employees of Tidewater Community College. The policy extends to individuals or organizations who are not members of the college community (i.e., not students, student organizations, or college employees) who are sponsored by a college recognized student organization. It does not provide privileges to employees of Tidewater Community College contractors or vendors assigned to work at a college location. Nor does it provide opportunities for commercial activities, i.e., the offering of or promotion of goods and services for sale or other consideration. This policy does not apply in instances when speakers, performers, groups, etc. are invited by the college. Nor does it apply to external groups that arrange to use college space through a Facilities Use Agreement. Tidewater Community College property is primarily dedicated to academic, student life, and administrative functions. But it also represents the “marketplace of ideas,” and especially for students, many areas of campus represent a public forum for speech and other expressive activities. The college may place restrictions on expressive activities occurring indoors, but especially for students and student organizations, the outdoor areas of campus remain venues for free expression, including speeches, demonstrations, and the distribution of literature. Indoors or outdoors, TCC shall not interfere with the rights of individuals and groups to the free expression of their views or impermissibly regulate their speech based on its content or viewpoint. Such restrictions must be content-neutral, narrowly tailored to serve a significant governmental interest, and allow ample alternative channels for communication of the information. No event or expressive activity shall be permitted to violate or hinder the rights of others within the campus community or substantially disrupt normal college operations. Door-to-door activities, such as solicitation and distribution of literature, are prohibited in college buildings. While the college is obligated to provide opportunities for expressive activities, TCC shall be under no obligation to require or promote attendance at such events or to provide ancillary services, such as sound amplification or other audio-visual services to enhance the presentation of the expressive activity. Students, student organizations, and employees will not be charged for routine services, such as Security or Custodial Services for an expressive activity event. However, in the event that the venue requested for the expressive activity normally has other service charges for its use, such as the Roper Theater, the student, student organization, or employee requesting the venue shall be responsible for paying for those services. College-sponsored activities and events shall take precedence over all extracurricular activities and events, including expressive activities. During an expressive activity event, the student, student organization, or college employee using an interior facility shall be responsible for preserving and maintaining the facility. If the event results in any damage to the facility, the person(s) or organization (and its officers, if applicable) conducting the expressive 25 | P a g e JULY 2015 PROCEDURES activity shall assume responsibility for the damage. This responsibility shall also extend to those conducting an expressive activity event in an exterior area of the college when the event results in damage to college structures or infrastructure (e.g., sidewalks and other hardscapes, underground utilities, etc.). In general, the college’s procedures will provide opportunities for scheduled and unscheduled or spontaneous expressive activity in a manner that does not interfere with the safe, effective, and efficient conduct of the college’s business functions or with the rights of other individuals. Reserving College Facilities for Expressive Activity: Students, student organizations, or college employees desiring to reserve college facilities for expressive activities shall submit their requests to the designated college administrator. Normally, twenty-four hours advance notice shall be required when individual students, student organizations, or employees desire to use designated college space or facilities as delineated below. More notice may be required to allow for sufficient logistical support and to ensure the safety and security of the campus or center. The college areas and facilities are designated as available, with prior scheduling, for expressive activities, including the expressive activity of individual students and employees. Requests to Schedule Expressive Activities must be submitted to the designated college administrator at least twenty-four hours in advance of the desired time of the activity. More notice may be required depending upon the anticipated size of the group, the popularity of the space, and other factors to allow for sufficient logistical support. The designated college administrator shall not require any more advance notice than is necessary to make appropriate arrangements to support the activity. The request shall include the specific location requested, the estimated number of expected attendees/participants, and the name and contact information of at least one person who can be contacted regarding logistics of the event, including at least one person who will be present at the event. The designated college administrator shall respond to the request to schedule an expressive activity as soon as feasible after its receipt. When assessing a request to reserve campus facilities, the administrator must not consider the content or viewpoint of the expression or the possible reaction to that expression. Restrictions may not be imposed on students, student organizations, or college employees due to the content or viewpoint of their expression or the possible reaction to that expression. 26 | P a g e JULY 2015 PROCEDURES In the event that other persons react negatively to a student’s, student organization’s, or college employee’s expression, college officials (including TCC Security staff) shall take all necessary steps to ensure public safety while allowing the expressive activity to continue. Requests to use the designated areas and facilities from students, student organizations, or employees shall be approved on a first-come, first-served basis. These requests may be denied only for the following reasons: o the requested venue is an indoor facility that the college has designated as not available for expressive activity under section 4.3 of this policy; o the requested venue is an indoor facility and the request conflicts with restrictions enacted pursuant to section 4.3 of this policy; o the activity will attract a crowd larger than the venue can safely contain; o the activity will substantially disrupt college operations (including classes); o the venue is already reserved for another event; o the activity will substantially disrupt another event being held at a neighboring venue; In the event that multiple individuals or organizations submit conflicting reservation requests, the following order of precedence shall govern: o official college-sponsored activities and events; o recognized student organization activities and events; o student activities and events; and o all other activities and events. o the activity is a clear and present threat to public safety, according to the TCC Security department; or o the activity is unlawful. Spontaneous Expressive Activity Students, student organizations, and employees shall be allowed to engage in unscheduled or spontaneous expressive events and activities consistent with the following provisions. No college personnel may impose restrictions on students, student organizations (or their sponsored guests), or employees who are engaging in spontaneous expressive activities due to the content or viewpoint of their expression or the possible reaction to that expression. In the event that other persons react negatively to these activities, college officials (including TCC Security staff) shall take all necessary steps to ensure public safety while allowing the expressive activity to continue. Outdoor Areas: For outdoor college facilities and areas, students, student organizations, their sponsored guests, and employees may freely engage in spontaneous expressive activities as long as they do not: 27 | P a g e JULY 2015 PROCEDURES block access to campus buildings; obstruct vehicular or pedestrian traffic; substantially disrupt previously scheduled campus events; substantially disrupt college operations; constitute unlawful activity; or create a clear and present threat to public safety, according to the TCC Security department. Indoor Areas: No indoor areas or facilities of the college are designated as available for spontaneous expressive activities. Relocation of Expressive Activity: The designated college administrator may require that a spontaneous expressive activity be relocated if it substantially disrupts college operations, violates or hinders the rights of others, creates a clear and present threat to public safety, substantially disrupts previously scheduled campus events. The administrator may suggest alternative locations for the expressive activity that ceases the disruption and provide ample alternative channels for communication of the information. The expression of competing viewpoints or multiple speakers in proximity to each other does not, in and of itself, constitute a substantial disruption. Areas Not Available for Expressive Activity College: Campus administrative offices (including support facilities, such as warehouses and physical plant/facilities maintenance spaces), libraries (other than designated public meeting spaces), and classrooms during their scheduled instructional hours are not available for expressive activity. College areas under the control of contractors, including spaces designated for food services, child care (including identified outside play areas), bookstore operations, and construction zones are not available for expressive activity. Responsibility for Damages: If damage occurs to college property as a result of the expressive activity event, the Director of Facilities Management & Services shall determine the cost to repair or restore the damaged area or infrastructure. The person or organization responsible for the event will be assessed the cost of the repair/restoration. 28 | P a g e JULY 2015 PROCEDURES Reservable Areas: The following areas/facilities are may be reserved for scheduled expressive activity by students, college-recognized student organizations (and their guests), and employees on a first-come, first-served basis without regard to the content or viewpoint of the expression or the possible reaction to that expression.

Purpose The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines and procedures for the use of Tidewater Community College (TCC) facilities, including academic and non-academic spaces and exterior areas, by external entities. 2. Policy As a service to the community, TCC permits other state agencies, local governments, community groups, non-profit organizations, for-profit entities, and individuals to request the use of college facilities for meetings and other events on a space-available basis. Priority of use shall be given to those activities related to the academic, student services, cultural, recreational, and employee support programs and functions of the college. TCC facilities shall be used in a manner consistent with their intended purpose and in a safe, professional manner so as to not endanger the college community or the Use of College Facilities by External Entities Page 1 of 4 Tidewater Community College Policies and Procedures Policy 3204 Rev: 0 June 4, 2015 general public. The college may restrict access to land and buildings to protect individuals, property, and equipment. Any person utilizing a college facility who engages in unlawful or disruptive conduct or violates college policy may be directed by a college official to leave the property. Failure to comply with such requests and failure to abide by regulations governing the use of college facilities constitute trespassing under Virginia state law and may lead to disciplinary action and/or arrest. TCC is not obligated to tolerate events that interfere with any lawful mission, process, or function of the college. Requests for approval of events may be denied if they pose a clear and present danger to college students, employees, and facility users. 2.1. Applicability The procedure for requesting the use of TCC’s facilities shall apply to all external entities except as noted. In all cases, the responsible college official (i.e., the respective Campus Provost, the Vice President for Workforce Solutions, or other member of the President’s Executive Staff) shall determine whether the requested use is compatible with the college’s operations and this policy. Other state agencies shall be afforded the use of TCC facilities for legitimate business purposes at no cost. By virtue of their financial support for the development of the college’s campuses, local governments shall be permitted to use the college’s facilities for legitimate business purposes at no cost. Non-profit entities shall not be charged the space utilization fee for meeting space but will be charged the direct costs of using the college’s space for their meetings (e.g., set-up/break-down, custodial, audio-visual, and security services). For other uses by non-profit entities (e.g., athletic or recreational sports, cultural events, community fairs, etc.), the responsible college official shall determine the charge, up to one-half the space utilization fee charged to for-profit entities plus the associated direct costs. For-profit entities and individuals shall be charged the space utilization fee as well as the direct costs for using the college’s space. The Facilities Use Agreement (Appendix B) shall be completed in all instances of use by external entities. This policy does not apply to the use of college facilities by college-sponsored organizations (e.g., recognized student clubs & organizations, employee groups, etc.) or related entities (e.g., TCC Educational Foundation). Nor does it apply to college-approved programs or activities, including those sponsored by or under the direction of the college or one of its related entities or approved organizations. This policy does not apply to the TCC Roper Performing Arts Center theater, which operates under commonly accepted business processes for commercial theaters. A distinct Facilities Use Agreement has been developed and approved by the appropriate legal counsel for the theater. The Vice President for Academic Affairs & Chief Academic Officer exercises executive oversight over the theater’s operations and shall ensure that they comport with the college’s mission and strategic objectives.

Revenues Revenues from the use of college Auxiliary program spaces (e.g., student center spaces) shall be deposited into an appropriate local fund budget account. Revenues generated by the space utilization fee for college Education & General (E&G) space shall be deposited into an appropriate state E&G budget account. Recovery of direct costs shall be deposited into the account from which the service was provided. 2.3.

For other TCC spaces and facilities, Appendix A (Facilities Use Request Form) shall be used. 4.2. Review and Response to Request to Use College Facilities Upon receipt of a request to use a facility or space under his/her purview, the responsible college official (i.e., Campus Provost or Vice President for Workforce Solutions, or designee) shall determine whether the proposed event is consistent with this policy. If it is not, the responsible college official will notify the requestor that the proposed use is not permissible under college policy. If the event is permissible under this policy, the responsible college official will determine the space utilization fee and direct costs, complete User Charges and College Approval section of the Facilities Use Request Form and return it and a copy of Appendix B (Facilities Use Agreement) to the requestor.

The User shall be responsible for all of its own costs and expenses, including without limitation any payments made to any union, guild, or artists association hired by the User for the matters covered by this Agreement. The User is responsible for paying all applicable state and federal taxes, if any, relating to User’s activities under this Agreement. The User will be charged Virginia Sales Tax for any rentals or other items for which such sales tax would apply, unless a current exemption is appropriate and available to User.

E. Liability: The User assumes any and all risk of loss, damage, or liability whatsoever which the User, the User’s officers, agents, employees or invitees may sustain while using the Facilities. The College, its officers, agents and employees shall not be liable for any injury, damage or loss of personal property which occurs on or about the Facilities caused by the negligence or misconduct of the User, the User’s officers, agents and employees or invitees or their use of the Facilities. The User shall defend, indemnify and hold the College harmless from any and all losses, expenses, demands, actions, suits, claims or liabilities of whatsoever nature resulting from any injury or death to any persons or any property damage related to User’s use of the Facilities. F. Insurance: The User shall maintain, at the User’s expense, during the term of this Agreement, liability insurance in which both the User and the College, its officers, agents and employees, are named as insureds with minimum policy limits of two million dollars for personal injuries, including death, and one million dollars in aggregate for all property damage; the term of such coverage shall coincide with the term of this Agreement. The insurance policy shall contain a provision which Page 4 of 8 Last Revised – 2/26/10 VCCS Facilities Use Agreement (Third Party Single Event or Scheduled Use of College Facilities) states that it cannot be canceled except upon at least fifteen (15) days prior express written notice to all insureds. The User shall keep such insurance in place and current throughout the term of this Agreement and shall furnish the College, at least two (2) weeks prior to the Event, with copies of the policies required hereunder. G. Nature of this Agreement: The parties understand that: i) this agreement is a contract and not a real property lease, ii) the relationship hereunder is that of contracting parties and not that of landlord and tenant, and iii) this Agreement does not convey an interest in real estate. As such, the College reserves the right to change the location of the Facilities or to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. H. Damages and Loss: If the Facilities incur any loss or damage as a result of the User’s use, User’s negligence or willful conduct or that of the User’s employees, agents or invitees, the College will repair and/or replace damaged or lost property as required to restore it to its condition before the damage or loss, and will invoice the User for the cost, due and payable upon receipt.

I. Miscellaneous: The User cannot assign this License in whole or part without the College’s express prior written consent, which consent may be withheld in the College’s sole and absolute discretion. The User shall not represent or imply, in any way, that the User is affiliated with the College, and the User shall not represent or imply that the College endorses, co-sponsors or approves of the User’s activities without the College’s express written permission. This Agreement contains all the parties’ understandings and agreements related to the User’s use of the Facilities, and may be changed only by an agreement in writing signed by both parties and attached hereto. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without reference to conflict of law principles. Page 5 of 8 Last Revised – 2/26/10 VCCS Facilities Use Agreement (Third Party Single Event or Scheduled Use of College Facilities) The User is subject to all applicable state and federal laws and the College’s rules and regulations. In its performance under this Agreement, the User acts and will act as an independent contractor, and not as an agent or employee of the Commonwealth. J. College Rules and Regulations: The User and its employees, agents, representatives and attendees shall comply with all applicable laws, codes, regulations, policies and procedures of the College and the Virginia Community College System, including without limitation the following – attendees at the Event are prohibited from: smoking in public buildings; possession of illegal substances; cooking or serving food, except in designated kitchen areas; possession of animals, except when required to assist disabled persons; tampering with fire system or fire safety equipment; possession of any weapon or facsimile, fireworks, or other flammable materials; disruptive, destructive or dangerous behavior; possession or consumption of alcohol in public areas, or possession or consumption of alcohol by persons under the age of twenty-one. K. Cancellations or Changes Made by College: The College is not liable for any cancellation or change in location caused by events beyond the College’s reasonable control, such as acts of God or acts of the Commonwealth in its sovereign or contractual capacity. The College will close to the public, including persons who wish to attend on-campus events, if the College’s designated officials determine there is reasonable cause, such as weather emergency, power outage, water outage, civil unrest, threat to national security or any other occurrence that, in the opinion of the College’s officials, is potentially and sufficiently dangerous to persons on campus or traveling to campus. The College shall not be responsible for any costs resulting from a cancellation or delay due to weather emergency, power outage, water outage, civil unrest, threat to national security or any other occurrence that is potentially dangerous to persons on campus. Event fees are non-refundable, provided, however, that the College will make a reasonable attempt to reschedule events that have been cancelled.

TCC has developed Preparing for Emergencies as a tool to help its students, faculty, and staff prepare for and respond to the unexpected consequences resulting from emergencies and disasters. It is designed to be a quick reference to assist the TCC community in planning ahead to know what to do before, during, and after an emergency to ensure their own safety and the safety of those around them.

The best way to minimize potential loss and speed up the process of recovery from hurricanes, snow storms, fires, or terrorist acts is to plan ahead. The first step is to be informed and be prepared. TCC Alerts is an emergency notification system that allows Tidewater Community College to contact you during an emergency. If you haven’t already done so, sign up for TCC Alerts and you’ll be registered to receive urgent text messages to your cell phone, e-mail address, pager, or Smart Phone. TCC Alerts are also posted on the website, www.tcc.edu. • Staying informed and being prepared is everyone’s personal responsibility! • Your judgment often determines whether or not an incident is an emergency. If in doubt, err on the side of safety. INTRODUCTION 1 • Be informed and prepared in advance. Know common risks to which you might be exposed. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. • Prior planning includes being familiar with possible hazards in your building and knowing evacuation routes and location of the nearest fire alarm activation pull station and fire extinguishers. • Have an emergency kit available. • If you carry a book bag, backpack, or purse keep a small flashlight with batteries. Questions regarding emergency procedures and response should be addressed to: Pete Sommer Director of Emergency Preparedness 757-822 -1783 [email protected] 2 TCC Emergency Communications > The TCC Emergency Communications Network is utilized to alert faculty, staff, and students of imminent and urgent situations that may affect one or more of the campuses or other locations. > In an emergency, notifications to students, faculty, staff, and visitors would begin as soon as information is available. > The components of the TCC Emergency Communications Network that may be utilized are: • TCC Alerts (sign up today) • TCC Website: www.tcc.edu • WTCC (video bulletin board) • TCC Information Center 822-1122 • NOAA weather radio all hazards • Local television and radio stations (see page 4 for list of stations) • TCC’s Public Information Officer is Laurie White. She can be contacted at [email protected] or 822-1085 COMMUNICATIONS 3 • Local television stations: Channel 3 Channel 10 Channel 13 Channel 15 Channel 43 www.wtkr.com www.wavy.com www.wvec.com www.whro.com www.wvbt.com • Local radio stations: WHRV 89.5 FM WHRO 90.3 FM WKOC 93.7 FM WVCL 95 FM WROX 96 FM WGH 97.3 FM WVHT 94.5 FM WWDE 101.3 FM WOWI 102.9 FM WTAR 850 AM WNIS 790 AM WGH 1310 AM 4 Medical Emergencies > Remain calm. > Call 911 (9-911 from college phone) to report the incident, then advise TCC Security (see page 28) so that first responders can be directed to you. > Do not move the patient unless safety dictates. > Use pressure to stop bleeding. > Be aware of hazards associated with bloodborne pathogens. Avoid contact with body fluids. Wear proper Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE) if available. If exposed to suspected infectious material, wash the exposed area thoroughly with soap and water and seek medical attention. > Comfort the patient and reassure that medical assistance is on the way. > If you provide first aid, consider the following: • Is immediate action needed in order to save a life? • Will I place myself in harm or jeopardy? MEDICAL 5 > First aid is just that. Do not jeopardize your health or the health of the patient. Wait for professional help if you are not able to provide proper first aid safely. > If trained, provide CPR. BASIC CPR Reminder: Tilt the head back and listen for breathing. If not breathing normally, pinch nose and cover the mouth with yours and blow until you see the chest rise. Give 2 breaths. Each breath should take 1 second. If the victim is still not breathing normally, coughing or moving, begin chest compressions. Push down on the chest 1-1/2 to 2 inches 30 times right between the nipples. Pump at the rate of 100/minute, faster than once per second. CONTINUE WITH 2 BREATHS AND 30 PUMPS UNTIL HELP ARRIVES NOTE: This ratio is the same for one-person & two-person CPR. Excerpted from source: depts.washington.edu/learncpr/ 6 Fire and Explosion > Activate the fire alarm. > Warn others in the area of the emergency and call for help. > Call 911 (9-911 from college phone) to report the incident, then advise TCC Security (see page 28) so that first responders can be directed to you. > Remain calm and follow any specific evacuation instructions. > Evacuate the building as quickly and calmly as possible. > Do not use the elevator! > Direct visitors or anyone needing assistance to the nearest exit or Area of Rescue. > Move to the designated Emergency Assembly Area and ensure everyone is accounted for. > Report name and location of others who need assistance evacuating. > Do not leave until directed to do so by college officials. FIRE AND EXPLOSION 7 TIPS: • Only if the fire is the size of an office trash can should fire fighting be attempted using the closest fire extinguishers. Fires beyond this size will likely spread quickly and are beyond the capability of TCC resources to safely extinguish. • When using a fire extinguisher, remember: P.A.S.S. Pull - the pin Aim - at base of fire Squeeze - the handle Sweep - back and forth as you spray • If fire is present, stay low to the floor and exit the building as quickly as possible. • If items are falling, get under a sturdy table or desk. • If trapped in debris, tap on a pipe or wall to alert rescuers. • Untrained persons should not try to rescue people who are inside a collapsed building; wait for emergency personnel. 8 Bomb Threat (Suspicious Mail or Package) Bomb Threat: • Remain calm. • Keep the caller on the line as long as possible. • Listen carefully.

The National Weather Service (NWS), in cooperation with emergency management, provides alerts for more than just weather events. This is the early warning system and provides critical information necessary to protect life and property in a timely manner. Weather Advisory Definitions: • WATCH: Conditions are favorable for the development of severe weather in the area. Everyone should closely monitor the situation in case of deterioration. • WARNING: Severe weather has actually been observed and is imminent or is occurring in the area. SEVERE WEATHER 21 When a WATCH is issued: • Check flashlights, emergency lights. • Check and recharge cell phone and radios. • Verify designated Internal Assembly Areas for your building. • Continue normal activities but pay close attention to TV or radio and changing weather (See page 4 for station listings). When a WARNING is issued: • Keep a working flashlight available. • Be watchful of high winds and lightning strikes. • Gather up personal belongings and be prepared to evacuate. • Follow directions of college officials. • When directed to do so, move to your Internal Assembly Area. Crouch near the floor, close to a wall and protect your head. • Account for everyone. 22 Shelter-in-Place A Shelter-In-Place warning may be issued for a variety of reasons such as Hostile Intruder, HAZMAT Threat, Severe Weather, or any situation when it’s best to stay where you are to avoid any uncertainty outside. • Remain calm; information may be limited. • Gather up personal belongings and be prepared to evacuate. • Follow instructions of college officials. • Remain indoors until directed otherwise. • Close windows and exterior doors. • Seek shelter in interior spaces away from windows and doors. • Account for everyone. • An “ALL CLEAR” message will be passed when it is safe to exit the shelter. SHELTER-IN-PLACE 23 Evacuation Procedures Evacuation of TCC Campuses, if necessary, will generally fall into two categories: Limited or Partial Evacuations – A building, designated area, or group of buildings may be evacuated for a specific time. General Evacuation – One or more campus or other facility is evacuated for an indefinite period of time. It is very important that, regardless of the type or duration of an evacuation, everyone listen very carefully to official information and evacuation orders issued from college officials. General Guidelines: • Plan ahead. Know evacuation routes from your office, classroom, and building. • Gather up personal belongings and be prepared to evacuate. • Remain calm and follow any specific evacuation instructions. EVACUATION 24 • Evacuate the building as quickly and calmly as possible. • Do not use the elevator. • Direct visitors or anyone needing assistance to the nearest exit or Area of Rescue. • Move to the designated Emergency Assembly Area and ensure everyone is accounted for. • Report name and location of others who need assistance evacuating. • Do not leave until directed to do so by college officials. 25 Phone Numbers and Procedures > When reporting water, power, heat or cooling outages, report the situation to: TCC Facilities Management Chesapeake 822-5175 Regional Automotive Center 822-5079 Norfolk 822-1304 Portsmouth 822-2235 Visual Arts Center 822-1824 Virginia Beach 822-7125 District Administration 822-2547 or call TCC Facilities Management & Services at 822-1177 > In case of internal telephone system outage, use cell to call the Help Desk at 822-2457 or 2459. > In case of a critical incident relating to computer systems, call the Help Desk at 822-2457 or 2459.

Emergency Assembly Areas The following table identifies the Emergency Assembly Area for each Chesapeake Campus building and the Regional Automotive Center and the staff assigned to manage those areas. College staff and classes assemble more than 300 feet from each building. Maps of the locations are at the end of this attachment. The Provost will maintain a listing of EAA, Building/floor Wardens and runners. This listing should be maintained at the end of this Attachment as campus-specific information and it should be updated at least annually. EAA Building Evacuated A Pass B Whitehurst C CO2 and Modulars (CT2 & CT3) D Academic Building E Student Center F RAC TriCities Child Development* Regional Auto Center Tri-Cities Center EAA Location Center parking lot in front half of parking lot area behind emergency call station Faculty parking lot and exit lane side of roadway toward the greenhouses – keep roadway open for first responders Exit via sidewalk between Pass and Whitehurst buildings, to middle of student parking lot Parking lot on Dominion Blvd side of the building Parking lot in front of building, clear of fire lanes Sidewalk in front of faculty parking lot Far corner east parking lot Parking lot adjacent to building, 300 ft from building – follow direction of onsite security * Child Development is a contracted service. Under their state licensing they are required to conduct various evacuation drills with staff and children more frequently than the college staff. They maintain a separate Emergency Plan, which has been reviewed by TCC. To the extent possible they will notify TCC when drills are conducted. B. Evacuation Assembly Area Routes Evacuation route maps will be posted in each occupied space. The maps should show the most direct exit point and alternate exits within the building and the route to each. Except in extraordinary circumstances, evacuation will be through the nearest available exit. Once out of the building individuals should take the safest route to the designated Emergency Assembly Area to be accounted for and await further direction.
