3)         Compare and prioritize risks of the hazards identified.

 

b)         Assess vulnerabilities within the higher education institution.

 

1)         Collect demographic data (such as daily population patterns, traffic patterns, seasonal population changes, special needs populations) to determine potential consequences of identified hazards on people and community functions.

 

2)         Collect structural inventory data (including data on critical facilities, residential, commercial and industrial structures, lifelines, and transportation) to determine potential consequences of identified hazards on community functions, property and sites of potential secondary hazards.

 

c)         Assess response capabilities of the higher education institution, identify shortfalls in response capabilities and develop strategies to alleviate shortfalls, such as memorandums of understanding, mutual aid agreements or Good Samaritan agreements.

 

d)         In analyzing and assessing the CEOP, higher education institutions may include, but not be limited to, the designated campus public safety officer, the campus emergency planning team, the campus emergency management director, local mental health community providers, local first responder agencies and ESDAs, county or major municipal emergency managers, or other persons deemed appropriate.
