Activities and FindingsThe mission of this multidisciplinary project is to enhance the ability of emergency response organizations to mitigate crisis, save lives, and prevent secondary and indirect human and economic loss by radically transforming the way in which these organizations gather, process, manage, use and disseminate information during manmade and natural catastrophes. The project is predicated on the assumption that information quality, accuracy, and timeliness at all levels of emergency management profoundly affects the quality of decisions and that better information leads to improved decision making and more effective performance of crisis-related tasks. As a result, significant improvements in crisis response capabilities can result from research on how to apply advanced information technology solutions to the crisis management field. Our goal is to show that such a fundamental transformation can be achieved by a coordinated interdisciplinary research program that synthesizes:(a) scalable and robust IT solutions to facilitate access to the right information, bythe right individuals and organizations, at the right time, and(b) social science research to understand the distinctive nature of dynamic virtualorganizations and their information needs in the crisis and disaster contextThe project has been officially organized under the title of RESCUE (RESponding to Crises and Unexpected Events), , and a project center has been established on the UCI campus. Research in RESCUE encompasses numerous sub-areas within both IT and social science. In particular, our IT research covers topics within the areas of networks, mobility and location management, middleware, distributed systems, security, data management, data analysis & mining, decision support tools, image analysis, automated speech recognition, spoken language understanding, computer vision and image interpretation. Our social science research focuses on the analysis of inter-organizational networks, emergent responses to rapidly-occurring events, organizational behavior in the crisis environment, information sharing needs, reliability modeling, and information dissemination to organizations and to the broader public.While our research touches many different topics, our project is a tightly integrated multidisciplinary effort focused on crisis response. The fundamental basis for integration is the process of information flow through disaster networks: information collection, analysis, sharing, and dissemination. Our project seeks breakthrough innovations in computer systems, information management, and social science to revolutionize the mechanisms for collecting, analyzing, sharing, and disseminating information in disaster response networks. Below, we first discuss our Year 1 milestones, and then discuss our research progress within each of these thrust areas.Year 1 Milestones: Our proposed Year 1 Milestones, as described in our Responding to the Unexpected Cooperative Agreement, have been met:In Year 1, we have developed a prototype voice-based event processing network consisting of distributed audio sensors, a backend server infrastructure for extraction of events from voice signals, and for the event-triggered notification of crisis response echelons. This has involved determining the quality of off-the-shelf speech recognizers, and identifying areas of improvement for deployment in the crisis response framework.We have also investigated different solutions for a reliable high-speed data network (combination of unlicensed band or experimental high data rate cellular system) to create a testbed. The prototype system will be used to test the ‘human as sensor’ concept at the campus level.We have finalized the scope of the Transportation Demonstration study. Specific details that have been worked out include: a) which sub-area of the California Advanced Transportation Management System or ATMS that will be used in the demonstration study; b) the selected scenario/hazard to be used to test damage assessment methodologies and tools; and c) the roles and involvement of other government partners, e.g., the City of Santa Ana, the City and County of Los Angeles, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), and the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (OES) with the research program.. In addition, a prototype software program to characterize the effects of large earthquakes on transportation systems has been developed. The purpose of this testbed is to explore the efficacy of information technology solutions in mitigating the effects of large, regional disasters.An initial CAMAS (Citizen Awareness System for Crisis Management - see discussion below) framework has been developed for campus level trouble reporting. It is enabling users to provide input via a web interface thus allowing the research team to monitor a few key university facilities. Event classification and categorization techniques are being used to organize collected data. Collected data are currently being used to evaluate the event extraction and assimilation techniques developed.Additional steps to carry out tasks specified in the cooperative agreement include the following:Hardware Infrastructure: A network of voice sensors (e.g.. PDAs, laptops, and bare microphones in on-campus settings) will be established and connected to speech recognition “backends”, residing on powerful servers suitable for load balancing. A control room will be developed at UCSD and outfitted with projection equipment to visualize the data and monitor the various testbeds. At both the UCI and the UCSD campuses, computers will be brought on line to support voice recognition, data storage and management, information collection and data analysis.Software Architecture and Components: Initial software prototypes for event-extraction from text and event assimilation will be developed. Software components will be developed and deployed for the audio sensors, voice processing, and notification; these components will be connected via prototypical software architecture for testing purposes and for demonstrating feasibility. Prototype software will be developed that will allow real-time assessment of damage to transportation systems (mainly bridges). This software will address a) damage to critical bridges, b) impact on traffic levels or congestion, and c) ability of emergency vehicles to respond to key incidents, e.g., search and rescue.Education and Outreach Activities: A RESCUE community advisory board (CAB) has been established that consists of representatives from local, regional, and national government agencies as well as from industry. On February 23, 2004, key researchers from RESCUE met with the CAB group to discuss research priorities and educational opportunities and ways in which that group can interface with researchers within the context of the three demonstration studies or testbeds. A website for RESCUE has alsobeen launched (see ). The website, besides providing information about RESCUE, is serving as an important focal point for information on homeland security issues, as well as a resource to researchers (both RESCUE members and others). The RESCUE education and outreach team (working with government partners and other faculty) is developing laboratory exercises that will help test and validate research ideas generated by the project, In addition, this same team is defining a suite of projects for undergraduate courses that deal with various aspects of disaster mitigation. CAL-IT2 seminars (open to a wide audience) are also being organized on topics related to RESCUE research this first year. In addition, the first annual RESCUE Principal Investigators meeting/workshop was held at the RESCUE project center on November 24, 2003.Major Research Thrust Areas: Four specific research thrust areas have been defined for this project: information collection, information analysis, information sharing, and information dissemination (see Figure 2-1). In addition to these major thrust areas, three key testbeds have been initiated: a) Transportation Testbed; b) CAMAS – A Citizen Awareness System for Crisis Management; and c) GLQ – Gas Lamp Quarter. Research progress in each of these seven areas is discussed below:Figure 2-1. Major Thrust Areas and Timeline for RESCUE Project2.1 Major Research and Education Activities, Including Major FindingsThe following sections provide a summary of major research and education activities for the RESCUE project. In addition, within these discussions, we provide our assessment of major findings, as they relate to the four main thrust areas: Information collection; information analysis, information sharing and information dissemination. A discussion of outreach activities (first responder community, industry, community in general, and education) is also provided at the end of this section.Information CollectionThis thrust area involves research activities for gathering and managing very large and diverse types of highly-dynamic information over networks that might be unreliable and possibly insecure. Emphasis has been on enabling humans to act as vital information sources in a crisis (human as sensor). Specific research foci include:Dynamic Data Collection – to design a robust data management architecture that provides access to highly-dynamic multimodal information from heterogeneous unreliable sources connected via unreliable networks.Rendering Multimodal Data - to seamlessly capture and analyze voice and video input from in-field rescue workers.Reliable Knowledge from Unreliable Informants – to develop an inferential modeling framework for analyzing personal accounts in order to simultaneously infer the true state of an event or incident; the social network of information flow among informants; and determinants of informant accuracy.Research Priorities: Quality-aware data collection mechanisms that exploit predictability of sensor and compute/storage capabilities at the sensor or nearby sources; Quality-aware query-processing mechanisms for ad-hoc and continuous queries that arise in monitoring based applications; ABC Networking – explore the feasibility of available physical alternatives for best-connected networking; Design link-tracing interviewer protocols for inferential modeling of unreliable sources; Evaluation of existing Speech Recognition software for human-sensor realization.Major Activities and Findings:UCI (Mehrotra and Venkatasubramanian) is exploring quality/energy tradeoff in data collection with a target tracking application. In such an application, a quality requirement is defined by end users. UCI has developed a middleware structure to map application quality to individual data quality, which is further used to reduce communication overhead in data collection. These researchers have shown that the mapping is application-specific and an optimal solution is not easy to achieve.However, even approximate mapping can yield significant savings on communication overhead and thus, energy consumption in sensor networks. UCI presented their results at CNDS 2004 in San Diego.UCI (Mehrotra and Venkatasubramanian) is investigating the problem of approximate processing of important types of queries and aggregations in sensor networks.Clustering is the most commonly adopted technique for sensor networks topology management. Based on this observation, UCI has enforced group-qualityconstraints, in addition to constraints on single sensor node, to achieve approximate data collection/aggregation. The group-quality constraints are further adjusted (dynamically) to balance workloads in networks. UCI’s experiments show that this technique can reduce overall communication overhead and achieve uniform energy consumption across the network.Since many real-world applications can tolerate data imprecision at varying levels, the error tolerance of applications can be exploited to reduce energy consumption during sensor data collection. Blindly transmitting sensor updates at a fixed periodicity to the server results in a suboptimal solution due to the differences in stability of sensor values and due to the varying application needs that impose different quality requirements across sensors. UCI (Mehrotra) is exploring data collection protocols for sensor environments that exploit the natural tradeoff between application quality and energy consumption at the sensors. UCI has considered a series of sensor models that progressively expose increasing number of power saving states. For each of the sensor models considered, UCI has developed quality-aware data collection protocols that enable quality requirements of the queries to be satisfied while minimizing the resource (energy) consumption. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results have validated the effectiveness of these approaches.UCI (Mehrotra and Venkatasubramanian) is considering the problem of evaluating continuous selection queries over sensor networks when faults are likely to occur.The presence of faults degrades the quality of the answer given to the user, but more importantly, presents a semantic challenge, making it difficult to interpret this answer unless its potential discrepancy from the exact answer is quantified (the one that would have been acquired if faults did not occur). UCI has developed a taxonomy of faults that are likely to occur, proposed a metric for quantifying the quality of an answer set, and developed a protocol FATE-CSQ for trying to achieve this quality efficiently. FATE-CSQ applies in-network processing to localize and quickly fix the effects of faults. Researchers have conducted a thorough empirical evaluation of the FATE-CSQ protocol demonstrating its good performance in a number of different settings.UCI (Mehrotra) has developed a framework for evaluating Quality-Aware Queries (QaQs) over imprecise data. Replicas of dynamic data items are stored in the query processing site in imprecise forms in order to limit bandwidth- and energy-expensive communication. Queries applied to such data will produce approximate results, however, researchers want to quantify their level of approximation and give supporting quality guarantees in addition to the approximate answer. In this framework, QaQs specify their quality requirements, and the query optimizer devisesa plan to do minimal combined local data access/probing of remote data sources toachieve these requirements. Even though answers may now deviate from the exact answer, their deviation is deterministically bounded, while the resulting economy of resources is critical to system performance, especially in a crisis situation when multiple agents may be trying to query remote assets simultaneously, thus taxing available resources.Significant progress has been made in identifying sensors to assess the performance of highway bridges (a major element in the Transportation Testbed). It is noted that piezoresistive strain gauges are susceptible to signal drift. As part of this project, the University of Maryland (Chang) is designing a gauge that will compensate for many of the factors that can cause drift in strain gauges (such as temperature, pressure,and humidity). This sensor will result in deflections accurate to within 1 inch. Since large deflections correspond to significant damage states, the proposed technique will be able to determine the level of damage on a bridge.UCSD (Trivedi)has been working on the design and implementation of wearable sensory devices. They are currently focusing on a GPS+camera based device using tablet PCs and iPAQ PDAs. The tablet PC is being used for applications that require more local processing ability (for example, landmark detection, speech processing) in the event that remote access to computational resources are unavailable. The larger display size and graphical rendering power makes Tablet PC’s amenable to tasks that are more visualization dependent such as on-site real-time task planning.PDA-sized devices sacrifice computational and display resources for high portability, while still retaining the ability for intuitive pen-based interaction and network connectivity with RESCUE support infrastructure. Data collected from these wearable devices will be processed and analyzed to both filter irrelevant information, as well as synthesize the meaning from incoming data sources. This data analysis will be local, distributed across multiple devices, or centrally processed.Researchers are focusing on “self-data” analysis and event detection including landmark detection, person image capture, and self-tracking.UCI (Mehrotra and Venkatasubramanian) is working on the development of a testbed for studying techniques for privacy preservation in media spaces (specifically video surveillance). Utilization of RFID technology and its’ fusion with video streams to achieve ‘on demand’, privacy-preserving video monitoring in user space is an important focus of research for the RESCUE project. Successful integration of group-signature schemes for anonymous authentication with the testbed is being examined. In addition, UCI is focusing on privacy specification and access control.This aspect of research has required the development of a spatio-temporal specification language for access control in media spaces. Specification and formalism of the language as well as integration with a XML-based rule-base in developing triggers for sensor data (e.g. video) has been a major focus in this first year. Finally, development of a multilevel access control framework for mobile environments has been accomplished. As part of this research, data hiding techniques based on mobility patterns of objects and hosts have been developed.Current work is examining evaluation of spatio-temporal predicates in a privacy-preserving manner, as well as enhancing the robustness functionality of the PP-Video processing algorithms (improved UI multiple cameras, etc.)UCSD (Rao) i s working on the development of ABS (Always Best Connected) networking solutions with regard to information collection. In an ABC environment, users are able to connect over the best available access network, e.g. wireless LAN, GPRS, UMTS, CDMA2000 and DSL. The definition of "best" depends on a number of parameters, such as personal preferences, network characteristics, device capabilities, application requirements and network operator preferences. In the ABC solution developed by UCSD, the ABC service is offered to one client device, which hosts the ABC client functionality. The decision of which network to use will affect which external interface to use for the device.

IntroductionWelcome to East Tennessee State University. The skills and talents you bring to ETSU are vital to our mission of teaching, research and service to the region and state. One of the keys to accomplishing that mission is to ensure that we maintain a safe and healthy campus environment.This Employee Safety Handbook is intended for ETSU employees, full time and part time, regular and temporary, and all other ETSU employment categories, i.e., student workers, etc. The Handbook has been developed to provide employees with answers to general questions concerning health and safety in the workplace. It is important, however, that you and your supervisor discuss site-specific safety policies and programs for your department. Your supervisor must inform you of the safety procedures and required training you will need to do your job. The university’s policies, procedures, manuals, and many other safety resources may be found on the Health and Safety web site(/healthsafety) or by contacting Health and Safety, 439-6028.BackgroundIn an effort to improve the overall working environment and to provide, insofar as possible, every working person in the nation safe and healthful working conditions, the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 was enacted. This Act provided an opportunity for the various states to develop their own Occupational Safety and Health Programs. In Tennessee this was accomplished by the Tennessee Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1972, administered by the Tennessee Department of Labor. East Tennessee State University, as a state university, is administered by the Public Sector Programs Department. They may be contacted at 800-249-8510.Health and Safety PolicyEast Tennessee State University strives to provide a safe and healthful working/learning environment for its students, faculty, staff, and visitors. ETSU strives to play a leadership role in its environmental stewardship, health protection, safety standards and in its compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The achievement of these goals is an objective for units at all levels of the institution. Employees and students are expected to be supportive of these goals in their university activities.Health and Safety ResponsibilitiesGood environmental health and safety practices are a responsibility of all ETSU employees. The participation and cooperation of each person is essential to a smooth and effective program.Employees ResponsibilitiesYour responsibilities as an ETSU employee include:· Following all health and safety rules and procedures;· Reporting hazardous conditions to your supervisor;· Wearing or using prescribed protective equipment;· Reporting any job-related injury or illness to your supervisor and seeking2treatment promptly; and· Refraining from the operation of any equipment without both proper instructions and authorization.Supervisor’s ResponsibilitiesEach supervisor is responsible for providing a working environment free from recognized health and safety hazards. Specific safety responsibilities of supervisors include: · Informing new employees of their health and safety responsibilities, procedures, rules and regulations;· Assuring that required equipment and personal protective devices are provided, maintained, and used;· Taking prompt action when unsafe acts or conditions are reported or noted;· Providing for health and safety training and education on a continuing basis;· Investigating and reporting all on-the-job accidents promptly and requesting medical treatment if necessary;· Investigating and reporting all job-related health or safety problems promptly;· Coordinating or conducting internal inspections to assure safe and healthful working conditions;· Requesting the assistance of the next higher level of supervision regarding budget requests for any health and safety improvements needed; and · Ensuring their employees are made aware of their rights under the Tennessee Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1972. The State of Tennessee PublicEmployee, Safety and Health Protection on the Job poster is the authorizedmeans of providing this information. The poster, available from Health andSafety, should be posted in each ETSU department.Unit Head’s ResponsibilitiesDeans, Directors, Chairs and other heads of academic and administrative units have primary responsibility for:· The health and safety of their staff and students;· Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations; and· Obtaining and providing funds needed for health and safety improvements and for making those improvements;· Requirements and responsibilities established by agencies external to the university.Health and Safety OfficeHealth and Safety is responsible for development, oversight, and management of environmental health and safety programs that protect the environment, provide safe and healthy conditions for work and study, and comply with applicable laws and regulations. Health and Safety provides educational programs, technical assistance, and health and safety services to the university community. The office also functions as a consultant to deans, directors, and heads of academic and administrative units, other staff members,3and students in all areas of environmental health and safety. The Health & Safety Office makes health and safety investigations as necessary.University Safety CommitteeThe Standing University Safety Committee is responsible for:· Recommending policies and programs to insure a safe environment for students, staff, faculty, and visitors on campus, except in areas delegated to other bodies,i.e., Bio-Safety;· Monitoring the campus to ensure that university safety policies, procedures, and facilities are in compliance with applicable, state, and/or local code requirements;· Reviewing, evaluating, and recommending for approval university Emergency Preparedness plans.The Committee reports to the President through the Vice President for Business and Finance.The Committee voting membership includes one faculty representative from Environmental Health, Public Health, and Technology; one staff representative; one representative from VPs of Academic Affairs, Health Affairs, and Student Affairs; two student representatives and Vice President for SGA.The Committee non-voting and ex-officio membership includes the Director of Health and Safety; Associate Director of Physical Plant; Director of Public Safety; Director of Human Resources; Director of Physical Plant and Director of Disability Services.II. Safety PracticesCommunication of Hazards in the WorkplaceFaculty, staff, and students must be informed of any recognized hazards in their workplace. It is the responsibility of supervisors to provide adequate health and safety orientation related to standard operating procedures, hazards, and personal protective equipment. You should receive this orientation prior to working in the area.Please make sure you understand all information presented at the orientation. If you have any language barriers, please explain these to your supervisor. Your supervisor must ensure that all applicable policies affecting your work place is readily available.Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)Faculty, staff, and students may be required to wear PPE while performing their jobs, i.e., welding, asbestos removal, painting, etc. or when they are in certain environments (for example, chemical laboratories). Your supervisor will tell you the specific PPE you must wear and ensure that you know when it must be worn. The following is a general guide for selecting what may be necessary. Additional information may be found in the ETSU Personal Protective Equipment Program (under construction).4Eye and Face ProtectionProper eye protection reduces your chances of injuring and reduces the security of injuring if an accident does occur. Most workers who have had eye injuries were not wearing eye protection at the time.All eye and face protective equipment must comply with the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) guidelines and be marked directly on the piece of equipment. Protective eye wear includes safety glasses, gaggles and face shields.Operations listed below are a few examples where eye and face protection may be required:· Handling acids or caustics.· Welding.· Woodworking, i.e., sowing, drilling, sanding, etc.· Metal working.· Chiseling.· Metal casting.· Handling solvents.· High pressure washing.· Handling human tissue, blood, or other bodily fluids.· Using LasersChemical hazards – To protect the eyes and face from plash when handling bodily fluids, using or dispensing corrosive liquids, non-vented chemical goggles or safety glasses with side shields and full-face shield offer the best protection. Safety glasses are the minimum protection recommended of all operations involving hazardous chemicals.Physical hazards – When using high-pressure cleaning or spray equipment, safety glasses with side shields and full-face shields are the recommended PPE.Those work activities that produce chips or dust—such as grinding/drilling, power fastening, or power tools—require safety glasses with side shields as a minimum protection level and in some instances may also require the use of a full-face shield. Welding – Welding operations require a full welding hood with the appropriate tinted vision screen. Safety glasses with side shields are also required to be worn under the hood.When doing acetylene oxygen torch soldering, brazing, or cutting, appropriately tinted safety glasses with side shields or tinted goggles are the appropriate PPE.Hand/Arm and body ProtectionAlmost 75% of workers who suffered hand injuries were not wearing gloves. Although no glove will offer you total protection from every hazard, wearing the correct glove will help you prevent hand injury. Make sure the glove(s) you use in your work area are designed5to protect against the particular hazard(s) that have been identified.The following are general guidelines in selecting and using gloves:· Use metal mesh or cut resistant gloves to prevent cuts from broken glassware, knives or sharp other objects.· Use leather gloves for mechanical or where repetitive motions are involved to prevent blisters, calluses, and abrasions. Leather gloves also protect againstrough surfaces, sparks, and moderate heat.· Use cotton or other fabric gloves to protect against dirt and dust, or to better grasp slippery objects.· Use rubber, neoprene, vinyl, or nitrile gloves to protect against chemicals.· Workers who are sensitive to natural rubber latex should avoid direct contact with latex gloves and other rubber products.· Check gloves before wearing to make sure they’re not cracked, torn, or damaged in any way.· Make sure gloves fit properly. They should cover your hands completely and be comfortable enough for you to perform your job.· Take care to avoid contamination—don’t let your bare skin touch contaminated gloves.· Dispose of single-use gloves in the proper containers.When using hazardous chemicals, specialized gloves offering protection for specific chemical families, a laboratory coat, and at times a splash apron are the appropriate PPE.Insulated gloves and arm sleeve covers are recommended when handling hot or cold materials.Head and Foot ProtectionOccasions may develop during the work day or job duty when the use of a hard hat or other head protection and foot protection is necessary. All hard hats or safety shoes must meet the requirements for protection outlined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).Hearing ProtectionIf your work areas or specific job tasks have been designated as requiring hearing protection, you must wear approved protective equipment. Personal stereos or Walkman’s® are not considered approved hearing protection. If you have questions about high noise levels in your work area, you should ask your supervisor or contact the Health and Safety Office for more information.Respiratory ProtectionSome employees are required to wear respirators for specific job duties. Respirators include dust masks, air-purifying negative-pressure respirators, self-contained breathing6apparatus, supplied-air respirators, and other such devices. If you wear one of these respirators, you must have a physical exam and you must be ―fit tested‖ and trained before using it on your job.DocumentationSupervisors are responsible for maintaining written copies of safety programs and employee training documentation. This documentation is a requirement of most regulatory standards. Regulatory agencies may ask to see these documents during an inspection.TrainingYou may be required to attend in-house training sessions on such topics as bloodborne pathogens, hazard communication, hazardous waste, asbestos awareness, or laboratory safety. Supervisors of affected employees should exercise a measure of accommodation for these needing training. A checklist to help you understand which ETSU Health and Safety programs apply to you may be found on page 9.In some cases, supervisors may conduct specialized training sessions (e.g., safety procedures for using powered equipment). Supervisors can contact the Health & Safety Office for information or assistance in preparing training materials. Specialized training, e.g., forklift, asbestos awareness may be provided by outside training consultants.Training should be provided:· When an employee is hired, when an employee is given a new work assignment for which training has not previously been given; and· When a new hazard (chemical or physical) is introduced into the workplace.At a minimum, health and safety training for employees must include:· Recognition of health and safety hazards;· General and job-specific health and safety practices; and· State regulations and ETSU health and safety policies applicable to the job.General Safety Rules· All classrooms, laboratories, offices, shops, storerooms, and passageways will be kept orderly and free from unnecessary debris.· Floors will be cleaned and waxed in such a manner as to keep slipping hazards to a minimum.· Flammable liquids will not be used to clean floors, clothing or equipment.· Trash containers in offices, laboratories, shops and other work areas will be emptied each working day, preferably at the end of normal working hours, orthereafter.· Furnace, mechanical, and air handling rooms will not be used as storage areas.7· Worktables, stools, benches, tools and equipment will be maintained in good repair.· Electrical and mechanical equipment will have moving parts adequately guarded.· All electrical equipment will be properly grounded.· Appropriate personal protective equipment and/or clothing will be worn in all areas and/or during operations requiring such use.· Unauthorized persons will not tamper with electrical fuse boxes, alter existing wiring, or install new electrical wiring.· Electrical cords will be maintained in good condition.· Extension cords must be the type that contain a built-in overload circuit breaker, they must not be extended and used outside the room in which the fixture outletis located, and must not be located in such a manner as to create a trippinghazard. Where cords must be placed across paths of travel, cord covers must be used.Safe Handling of Laboratory GlasswareSupervisors in departments that use glassware, must develop procedures to handle all glassware safely and ensure that all employees and/or students are informed of these procedures. Areas that should be addressed include:Glassware inspection;Compatibility factors;Effects of extreme temperatures and pressure;Matching glassware to its intended use;Use of Personal Protective Equipment;Storage and handling;Washing and clean-up;Assembling apparatus;Safe disposal of broken or disposable glassware.Emergency Preparedness ProceduresThe establishment of well thought out emergency plans is one of the cornerstones of an effective safety program. Evaluating potential emergency situations, developing emergency procedures, and conducting practice exercises can help save lives. Detailed instruction regarding emergency procedures may be found in the ETSU Emergency Preparedness Plan.An ETSU Emergency Desk Reference has been prepared and distributed to all employees. The desk reference which should be kept readily available in your work area provides useful information pertaining to severe weather, fire and bomb threats.You should become familiar with the posted evacuation plan and how you should respond to a fire or other emergency in your building and be prepared to evacuate the building when necessary.When the Fire Alarm Sounds8If you are in any ETSU building and discover a fire, please take the following actions: · Leave the building immediately.· Pull the nearest fire alarm pull station and notify Public Safety, 911.· Leave the area quickly, closing doors as you go to contain the fire and smoke.· If you encounter smoke or flame during your escape, use an alternative exit. If you must exit through smoke, crawl on your hands and knees.· Do not re-enter the building until emergency response officials have declared that it is safe to do so.In the event of a serious injury requiring immediate medical assistance or any other emergency, remain calm, call 911, notify the dispatcher of the type and location of the emergency, answer any questions the dispatcher may have and stay on the line until released by the dispatcher.Employee AccidentsYou must report all work-related accidents, injuries, or illnesses to your supervisor. If an injury or illness requires medical attention, supervisors must report them to Human Resources, 9-7089.The supervisor must complete an OSHA Form 101, Supplementary Revised of Occupational Injury or Illness, and forward it to Human Resources, Box 70564, within two working days. This form may be completed over the phone or faxed to 9-8354 followed by a hard-copy. Forms are available at Human Resources or may be downloaded from the Health & Safety Website.Student or Visitor AccidentsAny faculty or staff member who witnesses, is involved in, or is informed of an accident with a student or visitor should report the accident to Public Safety, 9-4480.Automobile AccidentsAll vehicle accidents occurring on campus will be reported to Public Safety 9-4480, who will notify other offices or officials as appropriate.All accidents involving State vehicles must also be reported to the Comptroller, 9-5600, and the Physical Plant, 9-7900.III. Health and Safety Program ChecklistThe following checklists have been developed for you and your supervisor to understand the hazards and applicable Health and Safety Programs associated with your workplace or assigned duties. If you answer yes to questions in the 1st column, then the corresponding ETSU program and training requirements are, most likely applicable. Training may be provided by your supervisor, designated staff, Health and Safety, or outside vendors. Training must be provided and documented before performing any of the listed activities.9Employee Safety Handbook Checklist for Work Areas10Employee Safety Handbook11Health and Safety ProgramsHealth & Safety has developed a number of model programs to help provide for the health and safety of ETSU employees. Many of these programs are mandatory to ensure compliance with state and federal regulations. The following are some of the programs and safety manuals available:Bloodborne Pathogens ProgramEmergency Preparedness PlanHazard Communication ProgramHazardous Waste ManualLaboratory Safety Manual (Chemical Hygiene Plan)Lockout/Tagout ProgramPersonal Protective Equipment Program and Hazard AssessmentRadiation Safety ManualRespiratory Protection ProgramConfined Space Entry Program Hearing Conservation ProgramFor copies of these manuals or programs, contact the Health & Safety Office. These and other safety resources are also available on the Health & Safety web site.A copy of the Employee Safety Handbook has been given to me at the time of my employment. I promise to read the contents and to ask for an explanation of any parts that I do notunderstand. The Employee Safety Handbook describes important information about ETSU, and I understand that I should consult the Environmental Health & Safety Department or my supervisor regarding any questions not answered in this Handbook.Since the information, policies and procedures described here are subject to change, Iacknowledge that revisions to the Handbook may occur. Only the Environmental Health & Safety Department is authorized to adopt any revisions to the policies in this Handbook.Signature__________________________________________Date____________。

MISCELLANEOUS (47)PREFACEFractal research seems to have permeated most, if not all, areas of research concerned with form, from the micro-level aggregation of water molecules or particles of zinc oxide to the macro analysis of the structure of landmasses and cities. Given that the study of spatial form and its links to spatial processes is one of basic research areas within Geography, it is not surprising that research on fractals can be found in many subfields of the discipline, including geomorphology, climatology, urban and regional analysis, cartography, andremote sensing.Within this working paper, we provide a sample of the growing literature in this area. The emphasis is on references that have appeared in the published literature. The bibliography is arranged in three sections: general references; measurement issues; and applications.Each of these general topics is further subdivided. While we have attempted to be asconsistent as possible in our indexing, there are many references that could be placed in more than one category and in some cases the decision into which category they are placed has been somewhat subjective. To minimize this problem, in some cases where areference clearly spans two or more of our subheadings, we have listed the reference more than once. Additional references of interest but which do not fall into any of thedesignated categories are listed at the end of this bibliography under the heading ofmiscellaneous.The concepts associated with fractal analysis have been discussed at the SpecialistMeetings of Initiatives 1 (The Accuracy of Spatial Data) and 3 (Multiple Representations) and we acknowledge these meetings as a source of inspiration for the development of this bibliography. We would also like to acknowledge the financial support of the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis under NSF grant (SES-8810917).I. GENERAL REFERENCESI.1TEXTSAharony, A., and J.

(60)Loyalty towards insurance aggregators and brokers used most frequently (62)... although the research is indicative of low rates of loyalty towards even the leading players.. (62)A key challenge for aggregators and brokers will be to maximise the loyalty of their customers (62)Accuracy of banking aggregators and brokers used most frequently (65)Over one in ten consumers have concerns over the accuracy of product information provided (65)... although scores accuracy ratings in excess of the market average (65)Satisfaction with banking aggregators used most frequently (68)Finaccord’s research facilitates the measurement of consumer satisfaction levels (68)... and indicates that the majority are satisfied by the service offered by banking aggregators..

(84) and appear to have grown most rapidly (85)Conditions for market participants outside of the top ten seem destined to become tougher (86)... as the evidence of the research is that smaller players are being squeezed out of the picture.

Health ServicesAppendix: University Faculty Grievance PolicyCOLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTSINTRODUCTIONPurposeThe purpose of the College of Liberal Arts is to provide a liberal arts education within the broad outlook of the Judaeo-Christian intellectual tradition. The College is committed to the goals of learning and faith: learning as both the means to and the result of scholarship; faith as the personal appropriation of truth for living. Being open to all qualified persons who seek to grow through education, the College strives to uphold the values of personal freedom, individual responsibility and community service.Historical Background and Scope of ProgramsThe College of Liberal Arts traces its origins to the beginnings of Mercer Institute at Penfield, Georgia, in 1833. When the school was reorganized in 1839, the academic program that is now the College of Liberal Arts began with the offering of a baccalaureate degree. Since those early years, the College has developed and maintained a strong liberal arts tradition as the central focus of its academic program.The College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree, the Bachelor of Science degree, the Bachelor of Music degree, and the Bachelor of Music Education degree. The base of these programs in both faculty and curriculum remains in the arts and sciences where the College offers general education courses, a wide range of undergraduate majors, and the opportunity for individualized majors for undergraduates, to be developed in consultation with a faculty advisor. In 2005, the College also began to offer master’s degrees in church music and in performance with an emphasis on church music.The College anticipates that all faculty members will use their research to enrich their teaching. It recognizes the scholarships of teaching, integration, and application as well as the scholarship of discovery as important professional activities. The College provides resources for research and development by individual faculty members and sponsors lecture series, colloquia, and conferences throughout the year.The College reaches into the community in several ways. First Year Seminar, the Program in Leadership and Service, and the Mercer Center for Service-Learning and Community Development provide means for academic service-learning and student volunteerism.1Educational DistinctivesThe College is an active participant in a distinctive new force in American higher education that seeks to integrate liberal education with professional training within the context of a smaller, student-centered university. The College originated as a traditional liberal arts institution. It retains the emphases on teaching, individual instruction, and study solidly grounded in the liberal arts characteristic of liberal arts colleges. In addition, as the core of a comprehensive university, it has particular concerns for the ways in which the liberal arts can serve as the foundation of more specialized studies and can connect these to one another.The College is distinctive, educationally, in several other important ways. It adds to a strong commitment to freedom of inquiry and teaching grounded in its principles as a Baptist institution, a concern to maintain high academic standards, rigor, and a regard for the development of the character for the development of the character of the students. The term “paideia” ( B"4*,4") captures this regard for the education of individuals for responsible citizenship and virtuous lives. The Honors Program of the College embraces these principles. Interdisciplinary programs have long been pivotal in the life of the College. They have functioned as sources of innovation in programs and teaching, and as means of providing students with educational opportunities that uniquely reflect the concerns, imagination, and vigor of the College. Among these efforts are First Year Seminar and Scientific Inquiry, required of all freshmen, and Senior Capstone, required for graduation. The Great Books Program is a unique alternative general education track. Women’s and Gender Studies, African-American Studies, Environmental Science, and widespread opportunities to create individual majors and pursue undergraduate research collaboratively with faculty members also distinguish the College as a special learning place.Finally, we add to a sound general education program grounded in the liberal arts, and to our distinctive interdisciplinary offerings, strong disciplinary majors and varied possibilities for campus and international study. These can ensure that future generations of Mercerians will be truly prepared for global citizenship in the twenty-first century.2I. ACADEMIC ORGANIZATION1.01.
