a. The pepper gas will only be used after all non-violent efforts are exhausted to quell a disturbance at any post manned by the guards.

16. Fire Prevention and Reporting:

The guards will frequently review the General and Post Orders in case of emergencies. It is important that only correct and prescribed procedures are followed in order to minimize the emergency. More specific instructions, concerning emergencies, for each guard post are in the Post Orders.

a. General: The objectives of fire prevention and reporting, in the order of their importance are to:

1) If the guard discovers a fire, he/she should report it immediately and request assistance - inform MSG on duty at Post #1 or activate the fire alarm, prior to attempting to extinguish the fire.

2) Prevent the fire from starting.

3) Inform employees in the immediate vicinity of the fire and order them to evacuate the area immediately.

4) Prevent the loss of life and property in case a fire should start.

5) Confine the fire to its place of origin.

b. Preventive Measures:

1) Proper fire prevention measures, coupled with common sense will prevent most fires from starting. It is imperative that the guard will constantly be on the look out for fire hazards, particularly in waste cans and electrical equipment. Overloaded electrical outlets are among the leading causes of fire. Whenever a fire hazard is discovered, it will be immediately reported to the MSG on duty on Post #1, and the RSO through the LGF Supervisor. Appropriate entries are to be made in the Post Log and an Incident Report will be prepared.

2) Know where the various types of fire extinguishers are located, particularly those nearest to the guard's assigned post. Know which is appropriate for the type of fire being fought.

The following contacts will be made in case of fire.

1) Fire Department: 112

2) The MSG on duty at Post #1 and the RSO through the LGF Supervisor.

If an alarm system is not available, the guard(s) must shout "fire."

e. All guards will read and must have full knowledge of the American Embassy Fire Plan.

17. Bombs, Incendiary Devices and Firearms:

"Under no circumstances [will] the guard[s] touch or in any way disturb the suspicious article or package." DO NOT TOUCH or move any item suspected to be a bomb or incendiary device. The guard(s) will stand by to prevent its being touched or disturbed by other persons.

b. Explosive disposal assistance will be obtained by calling the MSG on duty at Post #1.

The RSO will determine when to call the local police bomb disposal unit.

c. Should the guard(s) on duty receive a bomb threat from any source, he/she will immediately contact the MSG on duty at Post #1 and the RSO through the LGF Supervisor. If the guard receives a bomb threat, the guard will try to determine where the bomb is located, when the bomb is set to detonate, what it looks like, who placed the bomb and why the bomb was placed. The most important information is when the bomb is set to detonate and where the bomb is located. Other information like the description of the voice and background noise is important for the guard to determine. This information will be reported in the Post Log and an Incident Report prepared.

d. Should a bomb explode on or near the guard post, keep the area clear of people. REMEMBER, DURING THE CONFUSION OF A BOMB BLAST, THE GUARDS MUST STILL PROVIDE SECURITY FOR EMPLOYEES OR OTHER PEOPLE IN THE AREA.

This information will be reported in the Post Log and an Incident Report prepared.

c. If a chemical and/or biological threat or attack occurs, keep the area near the guard post clear of people. REMEMBER, DURING THE CONFUSION OF THIS TYPE OF ACT, THE GUARDS MUST STILL PROVIDE SECURITY FOR EMPLOYEES OR OTHER PEOPLE IN THE AREA.

The guards must be especially watchful for attempted entry of firearms or explosives or chemical/biological agents under cover. The presence of breathing devices, air filters, nose clips, hospital masks, rubber gloves, etc., must be cause for immediate concern and requires further investigation. If such devices are detected, the guard(s) must immediately report the situation to the MSG on duty at Post # 1 and the RSO through the LGF Supervisor.

e. All guards shall be aware when performing grounds/ perimeter patrols of the following:

· Be alert to use of any device inside or outside the building perimeter that could be used to spray a toxic cloud toward the building.

When possible, persons conducting such spraying should be challenged and in all cases, supervisors, RSO immediately alerted through the LGF Supervisor.

· When patrolling public areas look for abandoned spray devices or liquid containers. If found immediately alert the RSO through the LGF Supervisor. Particular attention must be paid to insure buildings air vents cannot be approached by anyone using such devices.
