July 24, 2011
UAF will be conducting an emergency response exercise on campus Tuesday – Thursday,
July 26 – 28. During the three-day exercise, there will be multiple test messages
sent to the campus community via telephone, email and in-person mechanisms. There
will also be a large number of emergency personnel and vehicles on campus during parts
of the exercise.
Exercise activities will take place at a variety of locations on campus, including
the Butrovich Building and West Ridge areas, the Taku parking lot and the University
Park Building. Members of the public and campus community should watch for emergency
vehicles and signage, and be prepared to encounter traffic delays in some sections
of campus.
