Incident Planning, Response, and Recovery Manual The George Washington University Campuses, Graduate Education Centers, and Strategic Partners

Levels of University Status Alert Levels >> To properly manage incidents a prompt and orderly mobilization of resources is necessary. This plan uses the Levels of University Status shown on The George Washington University homepage to: Inform personnel, Set preparations in motion, and Change the degree of security awareness of the GW Community when an incident is either anticipated or in progress. The Crisis Manager, the Response Management Group, or the Leadership Group will set the appropriate alert levels based on the best information available. The levels support both preparations and response across the spectrum of possible situations. (The time parameters of finite incidents may not permit the establishment of a higher alert level prior to the situation returning to normal. However, all evolving incidents will fully employ this data). NEXT: Normal Level >> Complete Table of Contents
