Note:

1. In case of mishap the Installation First Emergency Responders can only ensure assistance in case of life or dead threat; if that’s the case dial 911, from a base phone, or 050/547114 from others; otherwise refer to “Ospedale S.Chiara di Pisa”, dialing 118 and then inform DES, dialing the following: 633/7575, from a base phone or 050/547575, from others.

2. In case of fire the emergency number is 117, from a base phone, or 050-547117 from others; buildings’ fire detectors are radio connected with the Fire Station.

3. Furthermore the risk assessment documents for the majority of Camp Darby Base areas are available to be consulted at Prevention & Protection Office (Safety)
