lThe 9 Best Practices
that help manage large scale events
1. Secure NYC executive support for evacuation planning &communicate this support to West Harlem community.2. Review current NYC evacuation zones & plans.3. Walk any city designated evacuation routes.4. Divide West Harlem into zones, assign zone leaders, zonesearchers, and a command center to coordinate incoming /outgoing communications.5. Ensure that plans for disabled, elderly and pets are inplace.6. Pre-identify and assign assembly points for each zone.7. Have accurate floor plans available for first responders.8. Create community ownership and a maintenance plan.9. Conduct community and zone leaders training and testing .

Divide West Harlem into zones & createcommunication network
Distinct community zones with procedures
Assign a name, number or letter to each zonezone division options: street, building # , geographic direction
Create an informal technology communication corridorcell phone relay system (zones to command center)
Utilize cell phone walky talky apps(i.e. zello, voxer, go tenna, mesh networks)
walky talky / short wave radio (zone to zone)

1. While the facility above-water was renovated in 2010, the pipes underwater remain 60years old and vulnerable to corrosion and leakage. The transfer of operations from ConEdison to Williams means that the facility no longer falls under the supervision of theNew York State Public Service Commission, but instead falls under Federal guidelines,which only requires pipe inspection every seven years. [1]
2. Williams Partners has a lengthy record of safety violations that have led to explosionsand fines. In one example of many, they were fined $50,000 by the U.S. Department ofTransportation for failing to follow its own internal guidelines for safe maintenance oftheir pipes on Staten Island. [2]
3. The plant is operated essentially by remote control, with the main control center inTexas, and a local center in Hoboken, NJ. Mr. Bing stressed the fact that remote controldoes not always work, as happened during Hurricane Sandy, when personnel had tocome in from Hoboken to do a manual shutdown. A major concern is that iftransportation routes are compromised during another major storm, will personnel beable to make it to the facility in time to manually shut it down?
4. There is no published report of the damage the facility sustained during Hurricane
Sandy, or what has been done to make the facility safe in the case of future storms.
