Emergency Action Plan, 2008. This paper discusses developing and implementing a business emergency action plan. 1,800 words (approx. 7.2 pages), 3 sources, APA, £ 40.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In this article, the writer notes that an emergency action plan is a written document required by certain Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards. The writer notes that there are several parts to a well-developed and OSHA-compliant emergency action plan. The writer points out that an employer must have a method by which to alert both employees and the proper authorities of the emergency at hand. The writer looks at elements required by OSHA for such plans. The writer then discusses the emergency action plan's implementation and evaluation.
Outline:
OSHA Requirements For Emergency Action Plans
Developing a Working Emergency Response Plan
Implementing the Plan
Evaluating the Plan
From the Paper "Businesses must also have evacuation procedures and emergency escape route assignments in place in order to be OHSA compliant. Employees must understand who is authorized to order an evacuation and under what conditions an evacuation would be necessary. They must also know how to evacuate and which routes to take; although they are not required, exit diagrams are traditionally used to identify the escape routes that employees are to follow. Sometimes an important decision must be made when planning, such as whether or not employees should attempt to put out a small fire or leave it alone and evacuate. Evacuation procedures also often describe actions employees should take before evacuating, such as turning out lights and shutting windows. The inclusion of such details is up to the person in charge of designing a company's emergency action plan, but is not required by federal regulations."

Emergency Planning, 2002. This paper proposes an emergency operations plan for New York City in the light of 9/11. 910 words (approx. 3.6 pages), 2 sources, MLA, £ 22.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The writer of this paper presents a report as the hypothetical Director of Emergency Services for New York City. The supposed aim of the report is for it to be presented to the legislature, supporting a request for funding to upgrade the local emergency plan. The paper begins with an outline of the function of an emergency planning office, within the context of the emergency operations during 9/11. It then looks at the purpose of an emergency plan for the future. It explains the directives and guidelines contained in the proposed plan and elucidates its three-step implementation program. The paper concludes with important considerations for the proposed plan?s success.
From the Paper "Before one can fully understand the need for a new emergency management plan one must have a grasp on what an emergency planning office does. An emergency planning office is charged with the responsibility of preparing for emergencies as well as acting once they occur. Emergencies can be caused by many factors including natural disasters, chemical spills and other emergencies that arise(Federal Emergency Management Association http://www.fema.gov/)."

The New York City Emergency Plan, 2002. A paper which discusses the way the N.Y.C. Emergency plan should be revised after it was put to the test on September 11th. 3,540 words (approx. 14.2 pages), 3 sources, MLA, £ 70.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract The paper shows that currently the New York City Emergency Plan is solid and has been tested and re-tested many times over. The World Trade Tower bombing of September, 11, 2002 put the plan to the ultimate test. The paper discusses that, overall, the emergency plan worked very well, considering the size and scope of the emergency. However, it also brought out some areas in need of improvement. The paper shows that the key issues which need to be addressed are the need for secondary and tertiary backup plans for the command control center and hospital scheme. Also, it shows that it has become painstakingly clear, that even though the plan is in place, when the actual emergency occurred, police officers and other key authority figures did not know where to tell the public where to go or what to do. The paper discusses the potential disasters N.Y.C. might face and the steps taken to plan for them.
From the Paper "The theme of the program will be a simple question, ?What would you do?? This question will be followed by a scenario involving a disaster. All ads will be designed to spark thoughts of the possibility of the occurrence suggested and evoke thoughts of what they would do if the same disaster struck right now. Information on certain disasters, such as hurricane and storm safety, fire safety, and other safety issues will be an integral part of this program. The ads are not supposed to invoke panic, but rather to alleviate it. Panic occurs when there is a lack of a plan of action. This advertising campaign is aimed at getting people to develop plans, where-ever they happen to be. People who have a plan do not panic as easily and will respond in a more efficient manner to unexpected events."

From the Paper "Think through specific needs and various scenarios. At work, it is a good idea to store several protein bars and a small backpack with toiletries, critical medication, some water and food. It's also a good ides to keep a small emergency disaster kit in a car," experts recommend."
"At home, along with an emergency kit or kits, determine a course of action for emergency and disaster situations. Know evacuation routes. Identify a place family members can meet if they are separated. Each family member needs to have an emergency contact list that includes names and phone numbers for immediate family members and also relatives who live out-of-town. It is a good idea to have two escape routes. One plan is needed for each person to get out of each room; the other, the best way to out of the house. Experts recommend that after the plan is mapped out, it is practiced on a regular basis. (Ibid.)"

Emergency Response Plan, 2008. A look at the emergency plans set up in North Carolina in the case of an emergency situation. 1,176 words (approx. 4.7 pages), 6 sources, APA, £ 28.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the National Response Plan in North Carolina, set up to provide structures, resources, and capabilities to aid in the coordination of federal support to state, local, and tribal response managers. The author looks at the situation in the four counties of Chatham, Harnett, Lee and Wake.
Outline:
Chatham County, NC
Harnett County, NC
Lee County, NC
Wake County, NC
From the Paper "If any incident occurs in North Carolina, the state has primary authority unless the incident falls under federal jurisdiction. Different levels of federal assistance can be made available, but the state always has jurisdiction for state and local government workers within the state, including state and local emergency responders (North Carolina Department of Labor, 2005, p. 2).
"Chatham County is a major retirement community in central North Carolina, and the area includes a number of health professionals who are potential volunteers. However, their knowledge of and participation in county health and emergency response operations is limited, given that their primary orientation is to the cultural/social attractions of Durham, Raleigh and Chapel Hill, which border Chatham. Chatham County is also largely rural, which also reduces the ability of health professionals to have participated in many emergency operations on a large scale. The County states that the local volunteer fire departments, and other volunteer emergency responders, tend to be long-time local residents and face increasing costs and regulations that make services difficult to maintain. These responders have no time and little motivation to open up to "outside" volunteers, and this could affect long-term sustainability for the volunteer emergency base (Chatham County MRC - In the Beginning, 2003, para. 5)."

Emergency Evacuation Plans, 2006. A review of a formal report on emergency evacuation procedures for a high-rise building in the event of a terrorist attack. 900 words (approx. 3.6 pages), 0 sources, £ 24.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses a formal report (FR) piece of technical writing. The report topic itself concerns the organization of a training and familiarization session for tenants in a residential high-rise apartment building. The FR is designed to educate the tenants on what to do in the event of terrorist or other emergency type event that requires evacuation. The stimulus for the report is a physically disabled individual who resides in the building.
From the Paper "I am a resident caregiver for an elderly resident of the apartment high-rise building of which you are the board of directors. This elderly resident is physically disabled and completely immobilized not even being able to utilize a wheelchair. As such, I have noted that the other residents and employees within the building are not very familiar with the procedures relevant to facilitating the proper care and oversight of such individuals under normal circumstances, much less during emergency situations such as fire, earthquake, or terrorism. My concern is that under such circumstances the welfare of such residents who are physically unable to secure themselves would be completely overlooked during such an emergency."

An Emergency Requiring the Elimination of Emergency Law, 2005. A look at how successive Egyptian leaders have used emergency law to deny the Egyptian people basic democratic rights. 2,222 words (approx. 8.9 pages), 12 sources, MLA, £ 49.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper takes a look at the history of emergency law in Egypt and how it has been used by almost every government in the last 60 years to deny the Egyptian people the right to freedom of speech and the right to form opposing political parties. The paper asserts that Egypt, in order to become a true democracy, as it claims it is, must eliminate emergency law so that the people of Egypt can truly practice the rights a democratic society is supposed to guarantee.
From the Paper "Egypt may appear a calm country, not threatened by revolution, political instability or a rebellious population. However, the Egyptian government thinks otherwise. It apparently views the Egyptian people as rebellious, revolutionary and if given their right to freedom of expression, would drive the country to political instability. Therefore, a state of emergency exists in Egypt. Actually, as "Reading the Hieroglyphic" remarks "for all but eight of the past 61 years" Egypt has been under emergency law. Government after government and one political system after another has prevented Egyptians from the right to freedom of speech. Despite this, Egypt is said to be a democratic country. However, the fundamental elements of democracy is freedom of speech or expression and also allowing formation of opposing political parties. The 'democratic' Egyptian government is threatened by these elements as opposition may weaken its status and power. This law prevents freedom of speech and establishment of opposing parties, therefore, the government is using this law as a tool to grant it the upper hand and no one will even verbally criticize its actions. Although the government claims that the emergency law is a security measure for the benefit of the people, with reference to its history and the way it is being used proves that the purpose of this law is to maximize the power of the government to the extent that it can oppress the people and prevent any opposition; and consequently inhibit democracy. The emergency law is stifling democracy and development in Egypt."

Using Plants to Fertilize Plants, 2001. A look at alternatives to chemical fertilizers. 2,068 words (approx. 8.3 pages), 8 sources, £ 46.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This is a detailed and illustrated paper on using organic fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers on plants. Results of experiments concerning this topic are included with the paper.
From the Paper "Organic fertilizers can provide enough nutrients to plants, that is the reason why the plants can grow well. Also the organic fertilizers can change the structure of soil and create a good drainage system, and well-ventilated environment which can be a better place for microorganisms to survive. The organic fertilizers contribute a lot to the growth of plants, but they still have some disadvantages. If one adds too much organic fertilizers, the plants will die because the concentration of organic fertilizers is very high."

From the Paper "The daycare industry is growing. The childcare services industry is one of the most rapidly growing markets, expanding in part due to accommodate the increasingly high demand for quality services. In 1999 the market for childcare services topped out at more than $3.5 billion. The market is expected to surpass $60 billion in revenues in the upcoming years, in part due to the fact that both parents typically are now working in the labor force. ?Child care expenses by households rose 15.7% between 1986 and 1999 alone?. ?Formal daycare service providers in 1999 earned revenues of approximately $1.8 billion, with expenses toping out at approximately $1.7 billion, leaving more than $96 million in profits for daycare providers?. The profit margin is approximately 5.3%."

The Roles of the Three Levels of Government in Emergency Management During Hazardous Winter Weather, 2001. A discussion of how the United States deals with states of emergency, what constitutes an emergency, how to deal with it and financial aid in the aftermath. 1,845 words (approx. 7.4 pages), 5 sources, £ 41.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In the wake of the September 11th attacks, the author looks at how the United States is prepared to deal with emergency situations including not only acts of terrorism but also natural disasters. The author looks at the Stafford Act and the Federal Emergency Management Agency and what the brief is for these situations, with particular reference to financial relief. The author also looks at regulations for what constitutes a state of emergency, giving specific examples, and how various agencies and government bodies should respond.
From the paper:
?The severity of a natural winter disaster such as a blizzard affects the types of emergency relief called upon to prevent major damage. If the crisis is manageable on a purely local level, the city is mainly involved in plowing and spreading salt. If more physical aid is necessary, the state and county level must become involved to mobilize more equipment and human labor. Should an appeal for greater funding be necessary to address immediate damage from the federal government, the state may also be involved in such an appeal. This is particularly true, should more aid be necessary to help the victims of the emergency.?
