Directives Management System

DIRECTIVE

Number Date

MW DIR 04-001-1 8/23/2019

Utility and Life Safety System Outages Directive

I. Purpose

This directive describes the policies and procedures for obtaining approval for utility and life safety system outages at the Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center (MWEOC). This policy is intended to: 1) ensure the safety of personnel performing outages work and appropriate parties are notified; 2) reduce or eliminate the costs associated with accidental damage to utilities and equipment; 3) ensure that Mission Partner (MP) requested outages, contractor requested outages, and Facilities Management (FM) outages are properly coordinated and planned; and 4) ensure that sufficient FM and other MWEOC support is available, and that impacts to facility infrastructure and facility operations are understood prior to the system shutdown.

II. Scope

This directive applies to all resident personnel, contractors, MPs, and visitors at the MWEOC.

III. Supersession

This directive supersedes MWEOC directive, MW7500.19, "Utility and Life Safety System Outages Policy for the Mount Weather Emergency Operations Center," dated April 22, 2013, which is hereby rescinded.

IV. References

MWEOC directive, MW7500.17 “Lockout/Tagout Program for Control of Hazardous Energy Sources,” dated June 30, 2014.

V. Definitions

A. Controlled Shutdown: Actions to de-energize a utility.

B. Life Safety System: Includes, but is not limited to, fire alarm and fire sprinkler or suppression systems.

C. Requestor: MWEOC personnel, MPs, or contractor who requires a utility outage.

MW DIR 04-001-1 8/23/2019

D. Restart: Actions to re-energize a utility.

E. Utility System: Includes, but is not limited to chilled water, domestic hot water, domestic cold water, industrial hot water, steam/condensate, exhaust, heating/cooling, compressed air, gas, electrical, sanitary waste, and any other similar systems.

VI. Responsibilities

A. The MWEOC Executive Administrator, or designee, is responsible for administering these policies and procedures.

B. The FM Division is responsible for coordinating the utility outage approval process and the controlled shutdown of the utilities.

C. The Mount Weather Information Technology Services (MWITS) Division is responsible for all information technology (IT) services and for coordinating any outages of IT services. IT service outages are not covered in this directive.

D. Any MWEOC employee who has supervisory or contractual control over utility work is responsible for assuring adherence to the provisions of this directive as they apply to employees, contractors, MPs, and visitors.

VII. Policy and Procedures

A. Utility or Life Safety Systems

1. Any utility or life safety system at the MWEOC requiring shutdown for any period, must be pre-approved by FM. The pre-approval is to certify that all organizations affected are notified and provided ample time to prepare.

Coordination and notice are dependent upon the scope and impact of the outage. Outages impacting MP operations require advance notice and coordination. For example, maintenance on a single piece of equipment that does not impact MP operations can be coordinated internally within FM.

2. Unless otherwise directed, all utility outages will be performed by FM personnel.

3. Routine FM preventive maintenance task instructions shall specifically indicate whether outage coordination, per this Directive, are required for the specified task.

B. Outage Request Form

1. When a utility outage may impact MPs or other MWEOC division operations, the Requestor shall complete MW FORM 04-001-1, “Mount

MW DIR 04-001-1 8/23/2019

Weather Utility Outage Request” (see Attachment A) and submit to the FM Scheduling Branch (SB) for approval. Unclassified requests may be hand carried to the SB office, emailed to MWOPSMAIN@FEMA.DHS.GOV, or faxed to 540- 542-2681. All classified requests must be hand carried to the SB office in Building 5, room 10. SB can provide a fillable PDF form, upon request.

2. SB will review the outage request and based on the scope and impact of the outage, will determine the appropriate pre and post outage coordination, identify organizations and locations affected, then will notify the organizations and the MP Liaison to schedule the date and time for the utility outage.

a. SB will also coordinate with the appropriate maintenance shop(s) to perform the outage.

b. When SB receives proper input from affected organizations and coordination from the maintenance shops, the Requestor will be notified and provided a copy of the completed outage request. This completed outage request, with approvals from all responsible organizations, is considered an approved permit and allows the Requestor to proceed with the scheduled outage.

c. All affected organizations shall be requested to designate a point of contact who is to receive updates on the status of the outage as it progresses.

d. All organizations with critical equipment and or limited access to their spaces will be encouraged to remain present during the outage, allowing FM to verify that all utilities within the space are returned to normal.

3. Requestors should expect to receive an approved permit within five (5) business days of SB receiving a request, if the outage affects only one (1) building or a small portion of the site. Outages of a broader scope or those which impact site traffic, may take up to 10 business days to coordinate.

Outages need to be planned with the correct number of business days in mind.

4. All contractors shall submit requests for approval through the appropriate Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). Approvals will be returned to the originator through the COR.

C. Pre-Brief

Prior to initiating the outage, a pre-brief will be held to ensure all impacted parties have been notified; that the process is understood for notifying impacted parties in case the outage does not go as planned; and that the FM Control Room (CR) has been briefed on the outage. The specific MWEOC personnel who will perform notifications, if necessary, shall be identified at this time. Also, the pre-brief will review the post outage inspections required in section E below.

MW DIR 04-001-1 8/23/2019

D. Outage Implementation

1. All outages shall be coordinated with the FM CR at (540) 542-3041. The CR shall be notified throughout the execution of the outage to verify that all utilities have been returned to normal.

2. All affected organizations who designated a point of contact shall receive updates on the status of the outage as it progresses.

E. Post Outage Implementation (as determined step B.2)

1. When utilities and systems are returned to normal, an appropriate walk-though shall be conducted verifying that systems are normal, as allowed by access and the affected organization’s presence. FM will coordinate with MP personnel on site to verify systems are normal.

2. Affected organizations not present shall be notified, as appropriate:

a. that systems are returned to normal operation;

b. whether FM was able to verify the functioning of their equipment; and

c. that any systems potentially impacted by the outage, which are remotely monitored by the CR or other monitoring locations, shall be checked by remote monitoring to the extent possible in order to document system status.

3. Documentation of the Post Outage Implementation process shall be completed with names, dates, and times of the after-outage walk-through.

Coordination with the MP shall also be documented, and all documentation shall be submitted to the SB within five (5) business days. Due to the varying numbers of potentially impacted parties, there is no specified form for this step, a simple list with the applicable information is all that is required.

VIII. Questions

Questions or comments regarding this directive should be addressed to FM SB at (540) 542-2156.
