An emergency exercise is under way at The University of Western Ontario. The exercise, called Harmony 5, is based on a scenario that includes a chemical explosion and fire. Harmony 5 is an opportunity for campus police, Western’s hazardous material team, and other campus emergency responders to work together to plan their response.
In a large campus emergency, a large red emergency home page would alert you to possible danger on campus.
In any campus emergency, please go to the Western home page at www.uwo.ca for more information.
You may also receive an emergency email this morning. This is test of a mass email tool that allows members of the campus community to be alerted to an emergency on campus.
Because of the emergency exercise under way, you are asked to be aware of the presence of emergency responders and others in the vicinity of the Chemistry Building, Natural Sciences, and the Biological & Geological Sciences Building.
