Emergency Response Plan Overview

Entire LLRTC Emergency Response Plan - pdf

LLRTC has established this Emergency Response Plan to provide LLRTC students, faculty, employees and visitors (the "LLRTC Community") with information about Timely Warning Alert, Emergency Notification, Emergency Response Plan (including evacuation procedures), and to provide other general safety guidelines to the LLRTC Community. The information in this plan will help each individual in the LLRTC Community determine their best response to certain emergency situations, whether on, adjacent to, or near a LLRTC campus. Every emergency situation is unique and in all cases, LLRTC Community members assume responsibility for their own individual safety and security and should use their own best individual judgment in deciding their actions.

LLRTC's Emergency Response Plan incorporates generally accepted and recognized best practices of public safety standards and complies with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, 20 U.S.C. § 1092(f) ("Clery Act"). The term "campus" as used throughout this document includes any LLRTC building or facility located on LLRTC property.

The Clery Act requires colleges to timely notify its students and employees whenever there is a violent crime or crimes against persons, or threats to persons or to property occurring on campus that is ongoing or continuing and which may result in a threat to the health or safety of students or employees ("Timely Warning Alert"). Issuance of a Timely Warning Alert is intended to aid in the prevention of similar crimes and to enable each individual in the LLRTC Community to take personal actions to minimize their risk of falling victim to the same crime or crimes.

The Clery Act also requires colleges to immediately notify the LLRTC Community upon confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees occurring on campus ("Emergency Alert" or "Emergency Response"). Emergency Alerts issued by LLRTC are intended to assist each individual in the LLRTC Community to take measures to protect him or herself.
