In the event a tornado warning is issued, alarms will sound throughout the downtown area. After a warning has been issued, the Office of the Building will provide periodic updates.
An announcement will be made over the Emergency Communication System in the event severe weather conditions make it necessary for employees to move to designated shelter areas.
Stay clear from windows as the danger in a tornado situation will be from flying glass and other airborne objects.
Exit all perimeter offices and close doors to interior areas.
Proceed to the interior core of the building. Stairwells and restrooms offer the best protection against flying debris.
Verify that all employees are accounted for.
Assist persons with disabilities to the shelter area.
Remain in the shelter area until an “All Clear” has been issued via the Emergency Communication System.
Do not use the elevators or attempt to leave the building and avoid the lobby area during the tornado warning.
