GENERAL, MISSION AND SITUATION A. GENERAL 1. Desigration: This plan is designated "THE ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA, CIVIL DEFENSE OPERATIONAL SURVIVAL PLAN" and shall hereinafter be referred to as "The Plan ". 2. Authority: The authority of The Plan is established by U. S. Public Law 9202 81st Congress; Chapter 12 Minnesota Laws, 1961; the Minnesota State Operational Survival Plan; and the St. Paul Civil Defense Ordinance of 1951 as amended. The St. Paul Civil Defense Ordinance provides for Civil Defense and for the protection and promotion of public safety, health and welfare in the City of St. Paul during Civil Defense emergencies declared by the Governor. 3. Scope: The scope of this plan includes the organization of a Civil Defense staff, policies concerning shelter, dispersal and evacuation, warning system, relocation of Civil Defense forces, relocation of the City Government, management of resources in the immediate emergency period, coordination of school disaster planning and deliniation of service responsibilities. 4. Definitions: Terms used throughout this Plan are defined below. A glossary of additional terms is provided in Appendix 11. a. Civil Defense Emergency An emergency declared by the President of the United States, or by the Governor of the State of Minnesota under the provisions of U. S. P. L. 920 and Chapter 12 of Minnesota Statutes. b. Operational and Control Areas • For Civil Defense purposes the State of Minnesota is divided into three major Operational Areas. They are Target Areas, Maneuver Areas and Reception Areas. For 11 -29-62 STP -OSP -1 control purposes, the State is divided into five Mobile • Support Areas and two UNICOM Division Areas. See Appendix 2.. c. UNICOM (Unified Command) Area The UNICOM Area is an area including the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, and all of Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington Counties. d. Minneapolis -St. Paul Target Area The Minneapolis -St. Paul Target Area is geographically identical to and is the UNICOM AREA. e. Maneuver Area The Maneuver Area is comprised of those counties immediately adjacent and contiguous to the UNICOM area and is the area for assembly and movement of UNICOM Civil Defense forces engaged in operations before or after an enemy strike on the State. f. Reception Area The Reception Area is composed of Counties which abut • the Maneuver Area and which receive and care for evacuees from the evacuation area. g. Evacuation Area That portion of the UNICOM Area, approximately 25 miles in radius from the Lake Street - Marshall Avenue bridge, which is evacuated upon receipt of an evacuation order from the State Director of Civil Defense. h. UNICOM DIVISION 1 UNICOM Division 1 is the eastern portion of the UNICOM area and includes Dakota, Ramsey and Washington Counties. i. UNICOM DIVISION 2 UNICOM Division 2 is the western portion of the UNICOM Area and includes Anoka, Hennepin, Carver and Scott Counties. j. Target Area Counties The Counties in the UNICOM Area are referred to as Target Area Counties. k. Target Area Municipalities • Municipalities within target area counties are referred to as target area municipalities. 11 ')q F? STP -OSP -2 • 1. Sectors • During a Civil Defense emergency declared by the Governor, Target Area Counties have been assigned sectors of operational responsibility known as Sectors A, B, and C for Ramsey, Washington and Dakota Counties respectively. m. -Sector Control The Sector Commander will exercise operational control of all Civil Defense forces assigned to his sector pre or post attack. n. The Public All persons not assigned Civil Defense duties as part of the Civil Defense Forces will be referred to as the Public. B. SITUATION 1. Background: National policy precludes the United States from acting as an aggressor. This nation -rill enter war only as a defensive measure. -The existence of world tension may con- tinue for an indefinite period of years. When these con- ditions are considered along with technological developments in weapons it becomes a matter of national concern that steps be taken to insure, as much as possible, the survival of the nation by protecting its people, resources, and our form of government. Protection of the nation's manpower, resources, and governmental structure can be accomplished only by pre - attack planning and action to improve our ability to withstand a hostile attack and continue to function as local, State and national entities. 2. General: A planned nuclear war is relatively unlikely. The catastrophic results of a nuclear exchange between this country and any potential enemy make such an exchange the least acceptable alternative in a world of conflicting ideologies and varying forms of government. However, we as a nation cannot discount the fact that a massive nuclear exchange is possible even though it may commence through miscalculation, accident, or a process of escalation from a remote limited war effort on another continent. Because of these possibilities, we must make practical preparations that are feasible and flexible, and keep those preparations current at all times by looking ahead to future possibilities. 11 -29 -62 STP -OSP -3 0 3. Attack Considerations: It is impossible to predict either the exact nature of an enemy's intentions or the specific objectives an attack might have. Since this condition prevails it cannot be predicted with any degree of accuracy how an enemy would pattern his attack, how many weapons he would use, or what the total weight of an attack might be. Capabilities of unfriendly countries can be assessed within a reasonable range of probability. Planning at all levels must consider all possibilities over the entire range of probable capa- bilities coupled with likely enemy objectives. a. Delivery Systems Developments over recent years have advanced the state - of- the -art for delivering high yield nuclear weapons. An attack, to be effective, would have to be an integration and combination of several types of delivery systems. The most likely attack would probably be by Inter - Continental Ballastic Missile (ICBM), aircraft, (bomb and air - launched missile), submarine - launched missile and clandestine or sabotage operations. The probable attack "mix" will change as weapons system technology changes. This is important only insofar as the delivery method affects the warning time, as the effects of a nuclear weapon of a given size are the same whether it is delivered as a bomb from an airplane or by an ICBM. b. Vulnerability With high yield nuclear weapons and advanced delivery systems technology, no place in the world is invulnerable to damage from enemy attack. Even under the most favorable conditions no country can completely deny penetration to all weapons. Under these circumstances we must recognize that some weapons can be detonated within the United States. The only reason- able alternative to complete denial of weapons inflicting damage is a civil defense situation which will assure maximum survival of the nation. Attacks on the United States could have as their purpose a wide variety of objectives. These could range from the neutralization of United States retaliatory capabilities to the reduction of the United States to political, economic and military impotency. (1) The major initial enemy effort will probably be directed at the retaliatory missile and strategic bomber bases in the United States. This would include the warning and computer centers which support and direct the actions of these retaliatory forces. • (2) Concurrent and /or subsequent attacks may be directed at in- dustrial and communications centers which would necessarily 11 -29 -62 STP -OSP -4 • include highly populated urban areas. (3) As the enemy capability in numbers of weapons and delivery means increases, it can be expected that more of the initial attack might be directed at seats of government, industrial, transportation and population complexes. E • (4) Surface bursts will be employed where it is desired to create radioactive fallout which will increase casualties and interfere with military and civilian activity for days of weeks. Air bursts will be employed when incendiary and blast effects over larger areas is desired. (5) The nuclear weapons used will cause virtually complete destruction to most buildings within a radius of 6.2 miles to 8.7 miles based on a 20 megaton weapon, surface or air burst respectively.. This fact should be used in developing Civil Defense plans for dispersal and reception of personnel, relocation or dispersal of Civil Defense forces, and re- quirements for inplace defense. (6) Radioactive fallout resulting from surface burst of weapons, whether on or off the intended target, will spread downwind over a considerable area. A massive attack of 3,000 megatons will produce radioactive fallout of lethal intensity over most of the U.S.A. land mass within 24 hours of the attack. c. Non - Nuclear Threat 11 -29-62 Use of both chemical and biological agents is a potential hazard. Neither of these is considered as serious a threat to national survival as nuclear weapons. Chemical agents may "be used against specific point targets but are not considered as useful strategic weapons because of problems of delivery and controlling these weapons effects. Similarly the use of biological agents in sufficient quantities to be useful as a strategic weapon is considered unlikely because discovery would provide long strategic warning. However, it is possible that these agents might be used in conjunction with or subse- quent to a nuclear attack where specific additional post- attack damage effects are desired by the attacker. Psychological war- fare and all -out propaganda efforts will accompany any attack in order to magnify and distort the real situation, to disrupt defense programs, impair essential production and weaken the will to fight. 4, Warning: Planning civil defense actions and operations is dependent upon warning time. The complexity of warning time and the de- finition of warning itself make it difficult to develop assumptions. STP -OSP -5 • Detection systems designed to provide effective warning have advanced to a high degree of sophistication. Con- currently weapons,systems delivery has advanced to the point where time lag from initiation of an attack to weapon arrival on target is becoming miminal. Warning time is being reduced, particularly for high value military targets such as those making up our retaliatory capability. a. For planning purposes, there are three warning situations of significance. These are: (1) Attack (no warning). An attack which has as the initial warning a bomb detonation. (2) Tactical warning. A notification that an enemy has initiated an attack. Such warning may be received any time from the launching of an attack until it reaches its target. '(3) Strategic warning. A notification that enemy- initiated hostilities may be imminent. The time element may Mary from several hours to several days, (4) Civil Defense air warnings of an attack on the Continental United States (CONUS) will be received from the North • American Air Defense Command (NORAD) over the National Air Warning System (NAWAS) through the State Warning Point. Warning times may vary from minutes to hours. Warnings will be received by the City of St. Paul by radio, and /or telephone and /or Bell and Lights. b. Tactical warning is more likely than strategic warning. Some portions of the country may have no warning. The-fact that an attack has begun will serve as tactical warning to other areas. c. Strategic warning of the population is possible, though not the most likely situation. Since it is a possibility, it must be considered in plans related to the conditions that may result from an attack. d. The most important factor in considering warning time and its relation to plans is that the trend is toward a reduction of warning time. Another factor is need for planning for a spec- trum of contingencies. This calls for plans to be prepared, tested, and exercised in advance and to be as automatic and self - triggering as possible. 5. Civil Defense Capabilities of St. Paul: • St. Paul has a population of approximately 314,000 people living within an area of about 56.0 square miles. The City's 11 -29 -62 STP -OSP -6 work force includes about 70,000 persons involved in non - agriculture employment. There are approximately 5,000 • municipal employees. All city employees will be utilized to perform Civil Defense functions. , St. Paul has approximately 431 regular police and 443 regular firemen trained in disaster procedures. These forces are augmented by Civil Defense auxiliaries trained by the Fire and Police Bureaus. The City of St. Paul has approximately 65,000 dwellI49 units and some 3,238 licensed hospital beds to provide welfare and medical services on an emergency basis. This does not include the housing capability of commercial, public and semi- public buildings. While St. Paul potentially has, in public and privately owned buildings, sufficient space to provide fallout shelter for the entire populace, these potential shelters are not strategically located with relation to the day and night time population concentrations. St. Paul is a major manufacturing, industrial and trans- portation center with considerable supplies of raw material, finished products and food stuffs. The implementation of this Plan and the proper utilization of local resources gives the city a capability to recover from • the effects of attack provided adequate preparations and plans are made and effective governmental action is taken, 6. Military Capability: Memorandum of Agreement between the State Director of Civil Defense and the State Adjutant General provides that: a. Civil Defense missions to which any of the elements of the Military Services stationed in the St. Paul area may be assigned, will necessarily be considered as secondary. Support from the Armed Services will be available only when it does not affect their primary mission. b. In the event military resources are available to the St. Paul Office of Civil Defense, they will be committed in a supporting role and the military will retain command and identity of their units during operations. Requests for military assistance will be made to the State Director through Civil Defense channels. C. Mission: When an attack on the United States is probable, imminent or actual, all government and public employees, all public and private • corporations, installations and businesses in the City of St. Paul will direct their immediate and complete effort to carrying out the provisions of the Plan with the objective of minimizing casualties and property damage and facilitating recovery. 11 -29-62 STP -OSP -7 i II. ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE AND GENERAL PLAN A. ORGANIZATION 1. The organization for the State of Minnesota for Civil Defense is shown in Appendix 1, 2. UNICOM Division 1 Organization for Civil Defense Operations is shown in Appendix 5. 3. Ramsey County Organization for Civil Defense is shown in Appendix 6. 4. The St. Paul Organization for Civil Defense is shown in Appendix 8. A more detailed organization structure will be found in service annexes. B. GENERAL PLAN 1. Concept of Operations a. During periods of emergency, caused by massive nuclear attacks or threat of such attacks, the St. Paul City Government will be limited in its functions due to dis- ruption and disorganization of municipal departments. Speed and flexibility of operations are essential during such an emergency period. Accordingly, the general plan of operations is based upon the concept of central control and coordination of St. Paul Emergency Government through the St. Paul Director of Civil Defense, under the direction of the Mayor, during a shelter situation. Lines of succession for elected Municipal Officials will be established by ordinance based upon enabling legislation by the State Legislature. Provisions will be made by the City Clerk for preservation of vital governmental records in coordination with the various Bureaus and Departments of the City Govern- ment. In situations involving dispersal and /or evacuation of St. Paul Civil Defense Forces, the St. Paul Civil Defense staff will operate in support of the UNICOM Division 1 staff and the staffs of Sectors A, B and C. St. Paul services forces will be similarly deployed between the three UNICOM Division 1 sectors as directed in their respective service annexes. Civil Defense is a governmental function and this Plan will be implemented by all departments, bureaus and agencies of municipal government using their assigned personnel, services, equipment, supplies and such auxiliaries and supplementary personnel as required. • (See Appendix 7, Ordinance No. 9767, Section 4, Subdivision 5.) 11 -29 -62 STP -OSP -8 • b. In accordance with the Federal Fallout Shelter Program, action will be taken to locate, mark and stock acceptable Public Fallout Shelters in existing facilities within St. Paul, and where possible, improve their quality and /or capacity. Efforts will be made to include shelter space in new construction either on a single or dual purpose basis. Federally supplied stocks will be augmented as authorized by City appropriations. Shelter Management Staffs will be appointed and trained. A public information and education program will be implemented to acquaint the public with the location of the shelters, routes to them and the code of behavior essential to public shelter occupancy. (See Shelter Management Annex) Until such time as the Public Shelter System is effective, the public must seek refuge in home shelters, basements and /or central areas of large buildings upon the sounding of a TAKE COVER warning. Such refuge will provide some protection against initial thermal radiation, fallout radiation, light, blast, flying debris and secondary fires depending upon the distance from the point of detonation. 4. Evacuation or Dispersal • Given sufficient advance warning and following notification of Civil Defense Authorities, the State Director of Civil Defense may announce an evacuation or dispersal of persons from St. Paul over public radio broadcasting facilities. St. Paul has the capability of such a move and the outstate areas have the capa- bility of receiving and caring for evacuees, with the exception of fallout shelter, at this time. Evacuation planning and execution will be coordinated through Ramsey County Civil Defense by the Commander, UNICOM Division 1. Evacuation routes are shown in Appendiroes 12. and 13. C. ACTIONS ON EMERGENCY AND /OR WARNING CONDITIONS 1. General Policy a. ,Evacuation plans for St. Paul may be executed during a Strategic or Tactical Warning as ordered by the State Director. b. A strategic evacuation may be ordered during the period 8 to 72 hours preceding an expected attack on the Continental United States (CONUS). Tactical evacuation may be ordered 12 to 8 hours preceding an anticipated attack dependent on such factors as; weather, time of- day., and anticipated enemy attack pattern. Warning times of less than 90 minutes will be used to prepare for and • TAKE COVER. 11 -29-62 STP- OSP -10 • c. Three types of alerts and warning may precedd a tact- ical evacuation: Strategic, Air Warning Alerts Izid/or a TAKE CMIER warning. d. The State Director has the authority and responsibility to issue the order to TAKE COQ or EVACUATE. The decision, authority, and procedure for signalling TAKE COVER has been delegated to the MinnesDta Highway Patrol Radio Dispatchers based on the Time Over Target (T.O.T.) information received over (NAXAS) National Warning System. 2. Warning Conditions and Actions a. Because of variations in an enerW's attack pattern, the following listing of warning conditions is not necessarily in the order of possible occurence. It is probable that the period of Strategic Warning would be omitted and the warning advanced to the Tactical Warning period and a TAKE COVER warning issued. b. Strategic Warning(NO Warning Point Warning Issued) (1) During a period of international tension, the President of the United States may issue a Strategic • Warning. It is assumed that this warning would be made to the public through a personal appearance of the President on nationwide radio and TV networks; however, it is possible that such a warning might be passed down initially through Governmental Civil Defense channels only. For planning purposes, it will be assumed that such a warning would be effected 8 to 72 hours prior to the estimated time of attack. If continued beyond 72 hours, command decisions will govern the actions to be taken. (2,) CONEIRAD would not be invoked, and sirens would not be used. (3) The City Callup list given in Appendix 10 of this Plan will be activated. (4) The Director of the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense will assume duties as Commander, UNICOM Division 1, activate the UNICOM E.O.C. at Red Wing.,-with selected UNICOM Staff personnel (See Appendix '9 list of City Employees Assigned to UNICOM Staff and est- ablish communications with State Civil. Defense E.O.C. and Target Area Counties (Sectors A, B, and C). • (5) The Assistant Director of St. Paul Civil Defense will assume the duties of the Director and activate the St. Paul E.O.C.. Selected Service Staff members will assemble at the St. Paul E.C.C. for operations. See 11 -29-62 STP- OSP -11 Appendix 10. Com►�unications with the Ramsey County Civil Defense Director (Sector A), UNIC014 Division 1, State E.O.C. in St.Paul, and the Minn- eapolis Civil Defense Director will be established and maintained. The St. Paul E.O.C. will be oper- ational on a 24 -hour basis. (6) Upon receipt of a national proclamation involving a condition of Strategic Warning, the Governor of Minnesota may put into effect all Civil Defense powers as.defined by Chapter 12, Minnesota Statutes, 1961 and rules, regulations and orders issued under said Act. Upon declaration of such an emergency, all St. Paul City bureaus, departments and agencies, except the Council and Judiciary, will commence operations under the direction of the St. Paul Civil Defense Director, as provided by this Plan. (7) All traffic control points will be activated. (8) All educational institutions will be closed. (9) Voluntary evacuation of all persons not required for essential governmental, industrial or public safety services will be encouraged. • (10) Plans for preservation of vital governmental records will be activated. (11) Directives spelled out in the various Service Annexes as well as those received from the Sector A Commander will be carried outs (12) All Public Shelter Staffs will be al @rted. (13) Hospitals and institutions will prepare for and partially evacuate on order. (14) Preparations for a possible complete evacuation will be made. (15) The public will be kept informed. c. CONELRAD Announcements This announcement is made by the Commander -in- Chief, North American Air Defense Command when unidentified air activity is taking place. (1) All commercial radio stations either go off the air or change their frequencies to 640 or 12 0 Kc • on reduced wattage. (2) Public safety and RACES radio licensees are permitted to broadcast only to save lifeti No person,, place or names can be transmitted in amy cases 1 11 -29 -62 STP- OSP -12 (3) The public and Civil Defense personnel should tune • to 640 or 1210 Kc.. In the immediate area of St. Paul, 640 Kc will provide the fastest and best reception. (4) Emergency instructions to be issued through COA?ELRAD pertaining to public and civil defense activities and actions in St,. Paul, will be processed through the Information Officer at the St. Paul E.O.C. by all services through their appropriate staff section, i.e., Administration, Intelligence, Operations and Resources Management. The Information Officer will prepare the continuity and transmit same to the State Emergency Control Center in St. Paul or Mankato depending on which one is operating. d. Air Warning, PRELIMINARY (1) This warning will be received on the Bell and Lights system as position number 1. (2) Bell and Lights No. 1, PRELIMINARY means: (a) There is at least thirty -five (35) minutes Time Over Target (TOT) to St. Paul. • (b) The City E.O.C. will be activated. See Appendix 11, E.O.C.

Scope A. This guide is limited primarily to those functions related to the reception of people at the shelter facility and their protection and care, up to the time of departure from the shelter into the post- disaster environment. B. Shelter functions covered involve management, communications, radiological monitoring, safety, supply and maintenance, feeding, sleeping, health, sanitation, information and training. II. Concept of Operations A. In general, survival rather than comfort will be the primary objective. B. All planning for shelter occupancy must consider American unfamiliarity with living for a protracted time in a mass shelter environmant. However, to the extent that it is given understanding of the situation, and with proper leadership, the public will respond favorably. C. Requirements - preattack 1. The public should be made aware of the requirements for living in restricted areas with minimum food, water and comforts and should be oriented to shelter life through news media, schools, professional, fraternal and civic clubs, and through places of work. • 2. St. Paul departments and bureaus shall provide technical and other assistance to the St. Paul shelter system in the planning, staffing, and training for in- shelter functions related to their normal areas of emergency responsibility, i.e., Health Bureau: health hygiene and environmental sanitation; Ramsey Welfare Department: feeding, sleeping, registMation and information, care of children, the aged, and the handicapped, and general social services; Fire Prevention Bureau: fire protection and emergency escape; Bureau of Police: maintenance of order; Public Works Department: supply, maintenance, and engineering. 3. Shelter managers and key staff members shall be designated and trained so they are familiar with shelter areas, the equipment and supplies, and their use. 4. A plan for utilization of space within the shelter, a staffing pattern, and a plan of operation shall be developed based on the capacity, floor layout, facilities, and other pertinent considerations. 5. Plans should be made consistent with level of supply available in each shelter whether it be limited solely to the basic DOD -OCD provisions or other supplies avai: ble in the facility. N,.! 6. Wherever possible, people should be assigned preattack to specific shelters according to local community shelter plans. This is not • considered feasible unless there are enough shelter spaces for the entire population of the community as well as for any transients. (1) } D. Requirements - shelter entry • 1. Entry into the shelter should be expedited with settlement of the shelterees I assured in an orderly, even though improvised, manner, until more permanent organization and procedural arrangements can be determined. 2. Shelterees should be permitted to bring into the shelter only those items which would increase shelter habitability and create no extra management problem. Special health foods and medicines should be retained by the shelterees unless it is desirable to turn them over to the shelter manage- ment for safekeeping. General purpose items should be turned into general supply for later reissue. E. Requirements - shelter operations 1. The shelter manager should be the final authority in shelter policy and operations with the advice of his staff and an advisory council made up of shelterees. He should be given the necessary authority to exercise his responsibility for the physical and mental well-being of the shelterees. 2. A complete schedule for shelter activities should be established. (See Appendix D and Appendix E.) 3. A 24 -hour watch and communication log should be maintained. 4. Available furniture, equipment, etc, should be used as necessary to impro- vise a more desirable environment. • 5. Smoking should be controlled, and prohibited if absolutely necessary. • 6. Food and water inventory, preparation and distribution should be closely controlled by the management. 7. Health, sanitation and safety rules should be established and enforced. 8. Every person should be kept occupied through work details and training and recreational activities, temperature and venti?ation revels permitting. 9. The shelter manager, in developing his standing operating procedures, should be guided at all times by the safety and welfare of the shelterees. III. Basic considerations involved in developing shelter organization and operating procedures are covered in the chapters to follow. The go.idanc- -i while firm is suggestive. It cannot be applied fully, in a literal sense, to all shelter situations; it must be adapted to the needs to the particular requirements of the individual shelter. (2) CHAPTER DIO ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS • I. General A. Shelter configuration, capacity, equipment and supplies will vary greaty. Thus, only general organizational, staffing and operational guidance can be given. The pattern for each individual shelter should be determined and plans made preattack. B. Each shelter must be organized and group safety requires that final authority rest with the shelter manager. C. The manager may wish to have a small advisory committee chosen &om,the shelterees to assist in matters of relationship between management and shelterees. The committee can act on behalf of the shelterees in presenting problems and suggestions to the shelter manager and may assist the management in resolving behavioral and other problems. (See Chapter 5, Safety.) II. Organization A. The organization for each shelter must be determined locally based on the capacity of the shelter, its floor plan, facilities and supplies, as well as on plans for feeding, sleeping, and other in- shelter functions. B. Shelter Squad 1. Each shelter should organize its population into manageable squads. • As necessary, squads can be joined to form larger organizational groups or sections, and sections can be linked together to form divisions. 2. A shelter according to its size and space layout may function as a single unsegmented group, division or section. The size of a squad can vary but it is suggested that a squad should have approxi- mately ten persons; a section approximately ten units (100 persons); and a division from three to five sections (300 to 500 persons.)* 3. A given shelter of 50 persons may find it advisable to organize into a single squad while another shelter of 50 persons may find it expedient to organize into five squads of 10 persons each. A shelter of 150 persons may organize into a single section or may organize into two sections, each of which is made up of two or more squads. A shelter of 600 persons may elect to organize into either one division or two divisions with any one of various combinations of sections and squads. 4. The type of organization should be adapted to the shelter facility and should reflect the management concepts of the shelter manager. The objective is to establish a manageable span of control. * Throughout the Guide squad refers to a single organized group of approximately 10 persons; section to an organized group of two or more units; and division • to an organized group of two or more sections. (3) C. Shelter functions 1. In addition to organization of the shelter population into manageable • units attention must be given to other brgani.zational requirements nece sa y to the in-- shelter functions bf managemeht, com"ainications, radiological monitoring, sge ?y, supply and maintenance, feeding, sleeping, health and sanitation, and information and training. 2. Organization for these functions in a small shbiter may require no more than a shelter manager and perhaps one or tfao deputies, in addition to the required number of radiological monitors. (See Chapter 4, Radiological.) 3. Large shelters would require larger tables 4f organization. A shelter for thousands of people, for instance, may require a compre- hensive structure with organized personnel responsible for each of of the in- shelter functions, or combinations of functions, in addi- tion to whatever administrative echelons would be required for management purposes. 4. As an example, the shelter manager may find it advisable to appoint: a. A person responsible for operations including the direction of any organized groups to perform communication, radiological, safety, feeding, health and sanitation functions. b. A person responsible for information and training including the direction of any organized groups to perform training functions and to conduct spiritual and other special activi- ties. c. A person responsible for supply and maintenance including the direction of any organized groups to perform these functions. III. Staffing Requirements A. Suggested organization can serve to identify functions and organization and managerial requirements. These must then be combined into suitable staffing patterns based on the shelter size and workload. .B. In general, the shelter staff will include the shelter manager; (and according to the shelter size and table of organization) his deputies; division, section, and squad leaders; supervisors and members of organ- ized functional groups; and members of the advisory committee. C. The Shelter manager should select the best qualified personnel available in the potential shelter area. In general, he should seek persons with experience and /or training and related jobs in the community. The St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense will support his efforts to locate and train qualified personnel. D. In addition to the shelter manager, it is essential that radiological monitors for the shelter be preselected and trained. Other key staff • also should be preselected and trained where feasible, particularly for large shelters with complex organizational and staffing requirements. . (4) j <\ r t ' E. Two or more qualified persons should be trained as alternate or deputy shelter managers for each shelter population, be it day or night, to provide reasonable assurance that at least one trained person would be Savailable in time of emergency. F. Requirements: Key management staff. 1. Responsibilities, qualifications and possible sourcei of persons serve as shelter managers (including alternates and deputies), a members of the advisory committee are set forth bel6w. Informat relating to other shelter staff is given in the chapters dealing specifically with the various in- shelter functions. 2. Shelter Manager a. Duties Is responsible to the Director for the preattack inspection and organization and staffing of the shelter facility, in- shelter operations including policy decisions, and direction of staff. Is responsible for developing, and changing as requiredi in- shelter rules, organization, standard operating procedures and a schedule of operation. b. Qualifications Requires a person of highly developed and proven leadership abilities, who is calm in crisis, capable of making decisions • and determined in their execution. He should develop, through predisaster training, a working knowledge of the community shelter program and all in- shelter functions. Must be adept at improvisation. c. Possible sources Local political, business and community leaders, school adminis- trators, lay church leaders, and those with military training in positions of leadership. Administrators of institutions and disaster trained personnel from voluntary organizations. 3. Homber Advisory Committee a. Duties Represents shelterees in presenting problems and suggestions to the shelter manager. Conversely, assists the shelter management in resolving problems with individuals and grcaps in the mainte- nance of order and sanitation, the conservation of food, water and other supplies, the sustaining of morale, and the execution of routine operations. b. Qualifications Should be well known and respected adult member of community in • terms of the cultural and economic levels of those occupying the (5) shelter. Should have ,experience in handliAt Odple ah incii.viduals and groups and should be capable of influencing their actions* c. Possible sources • Local political, government, industry, and labor leaders. Also, lay church, institutional, and prominent social leaders. IV. Utilization of Space A. Much can be done preattack to plan for the maximum utilization of avail- able space within the marked area of the shelter and, in many cases, in adjacent areas of the building in which the shelter is located. B. Radiation protection factors will vary at different locations within an existing building and may vary some within the designated shelter area itself. Space with low protection factors should be utilized for storage and issue of food and supplies and temporary storage of human and other waste.. C. As the radiation levels decrease with time, it may be possible to move shelterees with safety to areas with lower protection factors. This can relieve overcrowding and permit greater shelteree comfort and space utilization. These are decisions the shelter manager must make after a careful appraisal of all relevant factors. D. If practicable, a plan should be developed preattack for dividing and marking the shelter area into sleeping quarters (by squads, sections and divisions as appropriate), as well as into management, medical, storage and supply, distribution, and other required space. • E. Consideration should be given to traffic requirements, and plans designed to keep movement within the shelter to a minimum. V. Operation A. Authority and responsibility of the shelter manager 1. The legal status of the shelter manager and his authority is the delegated authority of the Mayor through the Director. These authorities will be in printed form along with a delineation of his responsibilities and posted in a prominent place within the shelter. 2. In general, the shelter manager shall function as an arm of the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense, within his jurisdiction, he is vested with the authorities and powers necessary to fulfill his responsibility for the safety and well-being of the shelterees. 3. It is essential that the shelter manager also derive authority through group action within the shelter itself. B. Community Support 1. Each shelter as a component of the civil defense organization must be • tied into the community shelter system and its plan of operation. (6) 4. 24 The place of the individual shelter in the community system, the steps to be taken in the developing an operational capability, and the community resources which can be utilized through government departments and bureaus (i.e., Fire, Police, Health, Welfare, Public f • Works, etc.) in support of shelter management should be determined. 3. The shelter manager shall make maximum use of the assistance avail- able through these channels. C. Communications i 1. Information and instructions from outside the shelter will play a major part in sustaining morale and assuring effective shelter k operations. 2. Shelter communications encompass these basic functions: a. Monitoring outside radio broadcasts for relevant information. b. Maintaining two way contact with designated contral centers. i c. Operating an effective internal communication system. i 3. Provisions placed in shelters by DOD -OCD do not include communication equipment. Reliable low cost equipment suitable for shelter use under a wide variety of conditions is not presently available. Steps t to determine the feasibility of developing such equipment are being taken. 4. Suggested operating equipment and plans based on resources normally available in the community are set forth in Appendix A, Communications. i D. Shelter Operations Plan i 1. The St. Paul Shelter Aanagement Service Chief with the shelter manager shall develop an operations plan and place one or more copies with l the stock of shelter supplies or post in a prominent place within i the shelter. 2. The plan shall cover: i a. The capacity of the shelter and a description of the boundaries , of the shelter area. i b. The authority and responsibility of the shelter manager, i c. An organization chart with brief functional descriptions. The 4 staffing pattern, with the names of the key staff, their alter - j nates, and lines of succession should be given also, d. Inventory of basic supplies and equipment including location and as necessary, instructions on where and how to obtain. (7) E i k e.

Fundamental considerations 1. After assuming control of the shelter, ti .Le manager should complete his staff as necessary and appoint an advisory committee. Initial designations of staff should be temporary, pending final review of shelteree registrations and assurance that best qualified persons are selected. z. The shelter manager should hold periodic conferences with Ws deputies, advisory committee, and other key leaders. Operational plans and problems should be considered and courses of action deter- mined. 3. Periodic reports covering the general situation in the community Pnd other significant factors should be made to the shelterees. 4. A thorough safety and sanitation inspection of the entire shelter facility should be made at least daily. 5. Fire and emergency escape drills should be conducted as soon as possible after shelter entry and periodically thereafter. b. Rules covering group and individual conduct should be announced to the shelterees and posted at appropriate points throughout the shelter. 7. Shelterees should be kept occupied as much as possible in the performance of essential tasks and in training and recreation activities. 8. Particular attention shall be given to radiological factors. Fallout could arrive from different directions at different times. It is important that contact be maintained to the extent possible with the designated Shelter District Emergency Operating Center to keep fully abreast of this problem and to be prepared to take whatever emergency actions may be required. 9. The shelter manager and his staff must maintain a constant vigil to assure safety for those in the shelter, with particular regard for carbon dioxide buildup and excessive temperature. 10. The shelter manager should keep as fully informed as he can on the • total situation in and near his shelter and should, to the extent possible, coordinate and clear significant operational decisions with the Shelter District Manager.

The management objective during the 5helte:' entry �hds6 is i� get things started in an orderly, even though improvised, manner until more perinanent organizational and procedural arrangements can be established. C. Careful arrangements must be made to insure that the shelter will be opened quickly when warning is received. Several members of the shelter staff, should be provided with keys. Persons selected should work or live in or near the facility in which the shelter is located or should otherwise be chosen so there is reasonable expectation that at least one of them would be near the shelter at any given time. D. The following information should be posted in a prominent place within the shelter. 1. Legal basis for management authority. #2. Management roster (where predetermined). 3. A check list of initial actions to be taken. 4. The shelter layout plan. 5. A list of emergency equipment and supplies including a storage location of the various items and their respective quantities. 6. Instructions on equipment operation and maintenance. 7. Standing operating procedures. 8. Community map showing locations of emergency operating centers and shelters. II. Establishment of Command and Control A. All actions during this period should be carried out in a calm and positive manner to assure respect for the authority of the shelter manager and his staff. B. The first assigned member of the shelter staff to arrive at the facility shall assume command until relieved by the next person of higher authority. Hd shall make on -the -spot designations of people to assist in: * Actions to be taken if predesignated management personnel are not present should be set forth in the Standing Operating Procedures for the shelter. IM r r k I } t r 0 1. The orderly movement of people into the shelter. 2. Their direction to appropriate locations within the facility. 3. The establishment of over -all control, III. Initial Administrative Actions A. The following actions, where relevant, should be taken by the shelter manager and appropriate staff as soon as possible upon arrival at the shelter. 1. Test Operability of: a. Commercial power, water supply and sanitary facilities. b. Stand -by power, water and other emergency equipment. c. Heat control and ventilation systems. d. Communications equipment. e. RADEF and other safety supplies and equipment. 2. Check Health and Sanitation Supplies. 3. Check stocks of food and water. 4. Check administrative and training supplies, 5. Ready shelter space and prepare service areas. B. If any equipment is not working properly, or if supplies are found to be inadequate or missing, every effort should be made to effect immediate repair or replacement. C. A check should be made at entry ways to assure that extremely bulky or other items which would jeopardize the safety and well -being of the shelterees are not brought into the shelter or are turned over to the shelter management for safe guarding. IV. Securing the Shelter It is the responsibility of the shelter manager to decide at what point further admittance to the shelter should be denied. As a rule this must be done as soon as the capacity of the shelter has been reached. V. Initial Protective Actions A. If an attack is imminent or occurs without warning the shelter manager should take necessary protective measures. Actions should be in accord- ance with local civil defense regulations and in keeping with the location and construction of the building in which the shelter is located. B. The following suggests kinds of actions that might be taken: 1. As many occupants as possible should be grouped in that part of the shelter considered most safe from the structural standpoint, and (10) • should remain there until it is determined that the immediate threat is Aver. 2. Shelter openings should be left open if needed for ventilation purposes, unless excessive amounts of fallout material are drawn in through them. 3. Potential fire hazards should be minimized to the extent possible. 4. Supplies and equipment should be made as secure as possible. C. After the shelterees are assembled the shelter manager should make certain that information and instructions concerning the nature of the immediate threat and the required responses are disseminated. D. If fallout is not imminent, the shelter manager should drill his staff and inform the shelterees of the plan for protective actions. VI. Orientation to Shelter A. Initial orientation should cover: 1. Official introduction of the shelter manager and his key staff to the shelterees, with an explanation of the responsibilities and functions of each. 2. The shelter organization and command structure, including relation- ships between the shelterees and the shelter management. 3. The functions of the shelter advisory committee, 4. Instructions for the use of shelter facilities. 5. Standing operating procedures and daily routines. 6. Policies pertaining to the retention and protection of personal possessions. 7. The dependence of the shelterees on one another for the good of each and for the safety and welfare of the total shelter population. B. At this point the shelterees should be given an opportunity to raise questions and to seek clarification of instructions. VII. Registration and Inquiry A. A simple registration form is shown in Appendix C. Printed forms are available in each shelter. 1. A registration form should be completed as soon as possible by the head of each family group in the shelter and by each unattached individual, and returned to the shelter management. 2. The following data should be secured: a. Family Name, Address, Telephone No. ` (11) f f f T t b. Given names of family members in shelter, marital status, • family relationship, special skills, hobbies and occupations; ' disability, illness or injury requiring medical care and treat- ment, and special dietary requirements. `. c. Names of family members elsewhere and their probable location, if known. 1 d. Items brought into shelter. e. Preference for in- shelter responsibility and duty. f. Remarks; other information or instructions essential to the health and welfare of one or more members of the family. 3. A family member or one of the shelter staff should complete the form for an individual unable to write. B. The shelter registration data are needed to: 1. Maintain personnel and duty rosters. 2. Discover useful skills and interests available within the shelter. 3. Identify individuals requiring special care. 4. Determine sleeping arrangements in light of the sex, age and family • status of the shelterees. C. The information secured can be used also if the local government initiates a community plan for locating missing or separated family members during the shelter period. VIII. Establishment of Routine Operations A. The transition from shelter entry to routine operations should be accom- plished as quickly and smoothly as possible. B. In general, the following actions will be required. 1. Organization of the shelter population into manageable units (See Chapter 2, Organization and Operation). 2. Assignment of space to the various units. 3. Selection of persons from the shelter population to complete the shelter staffing requirements. 4. Instruction of newly recruited staff in their assigned functions. t i 5. Selection and instruction of the shelter advisory committee. • 6. Determination of immediate operating schedule and coordination of staff effort. (12) • • 4 C. An official record of significant developments, problems, and actions should be maintained, This record should include vital statistics, i.e. births, deaths, and serious health problemssand should be preserved in its entirety for information and possible legal purposes in the post - shelter period. ; t lq -a 1 CHAPTER. FOUR • RADIOLOGICAL I. General r A. The primary objectives of radiological defense activities associated with shelter occupancy are: 1. To minimize the exposure of occupants to fallout radiation originating outside the shelter, structure. 2. To prevent significant contamination of occupied shelter space. 3. To minimize the effects of radiation on individuals contaminated with fallout before entering the shelter, or as the result of emergency trips from the shelter, and the secondary effects of their contami- nation on other occupants in the shelter_ 4. To measure radiation dose rates and doses as a basis for assisting the shelter manager and the local civil defense organization in determining: a. When emergency excursions can be made from the shelter. 5. To direct all necessary decontamination within the shelter. B. Because of strategic location and communications capability, a shelter will be selected to serve as a monitoring and reporting station in the community wide radiological system in accordance with the St. Paul RADEF Plan. II. Basic Equipment A. DOD -OCD will provide a Radiological monitoring Kit for the licensed shelters under the National Shelter Program. B. The following instruments will be issued to each community shelter: 1. 1 CD V -700: Radiological survey meter designed to be sensitive to low levels of radiation only. It is to be used for food and water monitoring.

(14) • C. Each monitoring kit provided by DOD -OCD is packed in a fiberboard box for storage as a unit and contains an instruction manual plus necessary batteries. III. Trained Personnel A. A minimum of four persons shall be trained for each monitoring kit in a shelter. B. Monitors shall be assigned to specific shelters in advance. One trained monitor at each shelter should be designated "Chief Monitor." He should be appointed by the shelter manager with confiamation by the Director of the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense. The chief monitor will serve as RADEF Officer. IV. Preattack Functions A. During peacetime the RADEF Officer for each shelter should: 1. Check all monitoring instruments in accordance with the local radio- logical inspection plan for operability. Inoperable instruments should be reported to the St. Paul Civil Defense Bureau. 2. Assure that a fresh supply of batteries is provided when necessary and that instruments have been calibrated according to the schedule estab- lished by the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense. 3. Attend refresher courses as requested by the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense. B. Upon attack of warning thereof, the RADEF Officer should report immediately to the shelter, insert batteries in the monitoring instruments, and prepare for emergency operations. V. In- Shelter Functions A. Monitors should check the radiation level in the shelter hourly. B. The monitors should report dose rate information to the shelter manager hourly. In emergency cases, reports should be continuous. C. If radiation intensities within the shelter reach measurable levels, a comprehensive survey should be made by the RADEF Officer to determine the best shielded areas of the shelter. To the extent possible, all shelterees should stay in the best shielded portions of the shelter during the first few hours (or possibly 2 days) to reduce the group exposure daring the early period of greatest radiation hazard. After this early period, as the dose rate levels reduce, greater freedom can be exercised. D. The RADEF Officer should keep records of the group exposure upon the basis of dosimetric measurements inside the shelter, supplemented or modified on the basis of survey meter reading in other portions of the shelther that may have a different shielding factor. He should keep the shelter manager fully advised at all times. (15) • E. The RhDEF Officer and his assistants should check all persons and materials admitted to the shelter after arrival of fallout'and direct necessary decontamination. F. Before personnel leave the shelter to perform emergency missions, they should be issued dosimeters if available and advised at what maximum dose they should return to the shelter. The maximum allowable dose will depend upon the importance of the mission to be' performed. G. The shelter manager should ask the RADEF Officer the probable length of stay in shelter based on radiological data and information received from the District Shelter Management Control Center, H. Information concerning radiation levels within the shelter must be released to shelterees only after education and information activities in the shelter have prepared the shelterees as to its signigicance. VI. Remedial Movement In general, except for extreme circumstances, such as fire, remedial movement from the shelter is not practical. VII. Exposure Criteria A. Whether dealing with the general public or with emergency operation • personnel, the objective of radiological defense is to keep radiation exposure as low as practicable. The following data provide a guide for carrying our shelter operations in areas affected by fallout: DOSE T EFFECT 50r Smallest dose detectable in an individual by laboratory methods. N 75 -100r May cause transient nausea on day of exposure in 10% of the people exposed. 200r Largest dose that does not cause illness severe enough to require medical care in the majority of people (90 -95 %). 450r Will cause death to about 50% of the people exposed, 3 to 4 weeks after exposure. 600r Will cause death in almost everyone so exposed, 2 to 3 weeks after exposure. NOTE: r means roentgens r/h means roentgens per hour (16) i t i. I ance� a 2. Smoking should be controlled as required by the safety and well-being T • of the shelterees. Matches and cigarette butts should be extinguished in a container of sand or a container with water in the bottom. 3. Shelter leaders and the shelterees should watch for and report any potential fire hazard such as careless use of combustible material, electrical equipment, faulty wiring, outlets and switches. 4. All parts of the shelter should be inspected frequently, combustibles removed and faulty electrical equipment and wiring repaired as soon as these hazards are observed. 15, Fire coatro� 1. The best control of fire is to assure by preventive action that fires do not start and, once started, are extinguished quickly. The follow- ing basic rules should apply: a. Wood, paper, cloth, or rubbish fires can be extinguished with water from pails or pump containers. F b. Gas, oil or grease fires can best be extinguished with sand, dirt, or finely divided water fog or spray from a hose if available. Water should not be used except as spray or fog as it may spread such fires. c. Electric current should be turned off immediately when a fire originates from such source. The fire may then be fought with sand or dry chemical extinguishers. After the current is turned off water could be used, at the risk of damage to electrical appli- ances. d. Extinguishers with a vaporizing liquid such as carbon tetrachloride, chlorogromethane or carbon dioxide should not be used as they give off dangerous toxic fumes. 2. The shelter fire plan including number, kind and location of equipment must be planned under standards determined by St. Paul fire officials. 3. Each fire must be carefully investigated and the cause brought to the attention of the shelterees in order to prevent recurrence. V. Maintenance of Order A, General i A plan for the maintenance of order shall be developed for each shelter' and should include: 1. Routing of internal traffic. . 2. Proper marking of areas and designation of organizational units. 3. Establishment of simple rules of individual and group conduct and their enforcement. (18) i 4. Handling of special problems such as overcrowding, hazardous conditions., ill. rumor, low morale, lack of discipline, deviate persons,' etc. id B. Control of personal possessions ` A check of personal possessions shall be made by those responsible for safety working with squad leaders. Potentially dangerous, and prohibited items, such as, weapons, flammable material, easily spoiled foods, electri- cal appliances,etc., should be disposed of, or should be_receiptvd for, - _ marked and kept in a place of safety. Periodic rechecking-might be needed is to prevent hoarding of food or other supplies if such a problem develops. C. Prevention and control of conflict and panic r =� 1. . 1. Interpersonal conflicts should be resolved by squad - leaders before ' they break into violence. The shelter manager must be kept informed of any potential trouble.' 2. The advisory committee should be used by the shelter management when- ever feasible in resolving problems of- behavior. ' 3. The advisory committee should recommend corrective action to the shelter manager who will authorize any sanctions where need to maintain order. 4. Regular patrols of areas in large shelters and multi -room shelters can do much to prevent trouble. • 5. Serious violations such as assault, revolt against authority, etc..,, k must be dealt with quickly and forcefully. 6. Shelteree s shall be kept n t informed of existing conditions. Organized I and well informed persons are more apt to react calmly in crisis situations. - D. Rule enforcement and disciplinary action j 1. If trained.personnel are not available those designated to perform security functions should be carefully selected for physical fitness and stability, and given as much training in leadership and control of individual and group behavior as time and circumstances allow. 2. Minor infractions of the rules such as violation of quiet hours should be handled by the squad leader. 3. Major infractions of the rules of potentially dangerous behavior must be brought to the attention of the shelter manager. Unless immediate sanctions are required he can submit the case to the advisory committee for further consideration and recommendation. 4. Confinement or other restraint should be used as a last resort and only for repeat offenders. aI. Emergency Escape '1 A. Whenever inside conditions, such as, uncontrollable fire, threaten the lives of the shelterees, the shelter manager may order the evacuation of thel shelter. Safety personnel should direct the movement and maintain order. (19) r• - -� CHAPTER SIX _ 'SUPPLY AND NIAINTEN9IdCE _ I. General A. Proper engineering maintenance and the provision of essential supplies are vital for shelter habitability. B. Survival -may well depend upon the kinds and amounts of supplies stored in shelters during peacetime, and upon those that can be brought in during the period of warning.' II. Supplies and Equipment _ A. Essential stocks - 1.- The,DOD -OCD provisions for shelters'of 50 or more spaces,w hick have "been determined - usable under the National Shelter Program, provide for basic:store'of -food, water, medical,;sanita.tion, and RADEF supplies and equipment in each shelter.- Local governments are responsible for y' the�,proper storage-and safekeeping of these items. (See Appendix B for a listing 'of� DOD -OCD provisions) - - 2. Where `a shelter cannot be provisioned-pre-attack., St. Paul plans provide for- the movement of supplies to these shelters during the A, warning period by shelterees� - Shelter.supply personnel should be Ij prepared to receive and inventory these supplies. 3. All equipment and federal provisions for a given shelter should be included on an inventory list, and a copy placed in the shelter. 'This _list _should be kept up -to -date. B. Supplementary supplies and "equipment 1.,-Where it is feasible, the shelter group should consider enhancing the comfort of the shelter by stocking it with items over and above those :-considered as essential if the facility owner agrees in writing to the St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense. 2. Items, over and above those provided by DOD -OCD which are recommended for inclusion in shelters are listed in Appendix B. _They are also covered where applicable in other chapters of this manual. - 3. These may be-placed in,the shelter preattack, if storage space is available, or they may be'moved into the shelter during the period of L -- warning if nearby and readily accessible. However, such items must be considered as non - essential -and not to be acquired if they limit the amount of shelter occupancy space that otherwise would be available. C. Personal supplies 1. Items brought in by shelterees that may have significance in terms of their use within the shelter should be added to the supply inventory. (21 - • C. In small shelters a ®ingle person or a small group of persons may be all that is required to carry out both supply and maintenance functsions. For large shelters it may be necessary to organize a separate group for. supply and one for maintenance under an overall supervisor for supply and maintenance. } • s t t }f i 1 } 1 - - f (24) a 0 CHAPTER SEVEN FEEDIM I. General Although healthy persons can do without food for some time without adverse physical effects as long as water is available, a food supply in each shelter is necessary to permit shelterees to meet the demands of shelter living and prepare for postshelter rehabilitation. II. Basic Food and Water Rations A. DOD -OCD is provisioning each licensed shelter space, which has been identified and determined usable under the National Shelter Program, with a supply of biscuits or crackers and 3 -1/2 gallons of water. (See Food and Water, Appendix B) B, The survival crackers are packaged in cans of two sizes, which are in turn packed in fiberboard cases. One can will supply seven persons with 10,000 calories of food'each, while the other will supply five persons with 10,000 calories of food each, at the rate of 2,000calories per pound. C. Each water container provided by DOD -OCD supplies 70 quarts of drinking water (17.5 gallons). D. The sanitation kits supplied by DOD -OCD provide one six ounce plastic cup with lid, for each assigned shelter space. Extra cups to allow for possible breakage by shelterees and for some over - crowding of the shelter are also provided. A special spout for filling the cups from the 17.5 gallon water container is contained in each sanitation kit. E. The St. Paul Bureau of Civil Defense is responsible for the proper storage and safekeeping of these basic food and water items and for establishing the necessary feeding and water distribution arrangements. III. Other Desirable Foods A. Parents and guardians of infant children must be advised to bring formulas or other appropriate baby foods to the shelter with them. i B. Persons with particular dietary needs must be advised to bring the sp foods they require. C. Special foods brought into the shelter should not require cooking, or heating to high temperatures. Temperature of food will soon rise to the temperature of the shelter. If there is critical need for warm food, an no other methods are available, temperatue can be raised still further b exposing the food containers directly to the heat of the body. • D. For reasons of space and safekeeping, personal stocks of special foods shall be turned over to the shelter management for storage and for issuance back to the persons concerned as needed. (25) a I H f i i 4 IV. Supplementary Foods and Other Articles A. St. Paul will not augment basic shelter rations with supplementary food • and water or food preparation and serving equipment. B. Supplementary items are not considered essential and would limit the amount of shelter occupancy space that otherwise would be available. C. Supplementary stocks of water - -over and above the minimum of one quart per person per day for drinking purposes --may be provided from heating systems or other water supplies in the facilities for; emergency cleaning, washing of food containers, hand washing, etc. An additional quart of water per person per day for these purposes should be adequate to meet minimum needs. V. Conservation of Food and Water A. Food and water must be conserved to last through the period of shelter occupancy. This requires a strict control of distribution and a continual campaign against waste. B. Food and water should be stored adjacent to the food preparation and distribution area and should be kept protected, C. Management must regulate the rate of stockpile depletion to conform with the expected length of stay in the shelter. Rationing should not allow more than 700 calories of food and one quart of water per person per day until the fallout situation can be assessed. Adjustments can then be made consistent with the seriousness of the fallout situation and probable duration of shelter stay. D. In shelters with bulk food available, the size of the portion or serving can be adjusted, as well as the number of servings per day. With indivi- dually packages meals, adjustment can be made only in the number of meals served. In general, persons should not be given more food than they can consume in one day. VI. Distribution of Basic Food and Water Rations A. Space considerations will dictate where people are fed. In general, shelters will be too crowded to provide separate eating areas. Where the basic ration in the form of a cracker or biscuit is the only food provided there will be no particular need for separate feeding areas. Separate feeding areas are preferable if they can be provided without limiting the number of occupants the shelter could otherwise accommodate. B. Basic food ration s 1. Each day, food rations can be apportioned to the shelterees, in accor- dance with the day's allotment of calories as determined by the shelter management. Eaeh cracker contaiis approximately 30 calories. 2. The daily ration generally should be apportioned among three distribu- tions during the day - at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with distribution at any one time not in excess of the number of biscuits or crackers the shelterees can easily consume at one serving. This prevents waste of food, and relieves the shelterees of the need to retain and safeguard portions of their rations for later consumption. (26) 3 IV. Supplementary Foods and Other Articles A. St. Paul will not augment basic shelter rations with supplementary food • and water or food preparation and serving equipment. B. Supplementary items are not considered essential and would limit the amount of shelter occupancy space that otherwise would be available. C. Supplementary stocks of water - -over and above the minimum of one quart per person per day for drinking purposes --may be provided from heating systems or other water supplies in the facilities for; emergency cleaning, washing of food containers, hand washing, etc. An additional quart of water per person per day for these purposes should be adequate to meet minimum needs.

Each day, food rations can be apportioned to the shelterees, in accor- dance with the day's allotment of calories as determined by the shelter management. Eash cracker contaiis approximately 30 calories. 2. The daily ration generally should be apportioned among three distribu- tions during the day - at breakfast, lunch and dinner, with distribution at any one time not in excess of the number of biscuits or crackers the shelterees can easily consume at one serving. This prevents waste of food, and relieves the shelterees of the need to retain and safeguard portions of their rations for later consumption. (W C. Basic water ration • 1. The use of individual cups will require several distributions of water per day to provide each shelteree with a daily ration of water (one quart or 32 ounces). A portion of water should be dispensed at each mealtime. Additional portions can be dispensed between meals and before retiring at night. 2. Use of cups requires firm rules and instructions covering the means of identifying and safekeeping individual cups and any unused portions of water. 3. The problem of identifying cups, preventing loss or breakage, and possible hijacking of water can be controlled by labeling the cups with the names of their owners and providing a storage location. Such a location could be an available cupboard, table or simply a marked section of the shelter floor, preferably a corner. 4. Surveillance of the cup repository should be provided around the clock by personnel selected from among the shelterees. Each unit or section can set up its own repository to be manned on a shift basis by custo- dians who would have responsibility to check cups in and out to their rightful owners. VII. Methods of Food and Water Distribution A. Stationary distribution • 1. Under this method of distribution shelter occupants should proceed to a central point receive a meal, a quota of water, and return to the designated eating area (generally the main housing area of the shelter). 2. Simple procedures only are required for distribution of basic food and water rations. One or more distribution points can be set up within the shelter. The shelterees can then file past the designated points to receive their allotted portions of food and water. 3. In large shelters food and /or water may be issued to each section or division which would then redistribute the rations to its members through a feeding team or the squad leaders. B. Moving distribution 1. Under this method of distribution food and water, along with any necessary containers and utensils are delivered to the shelterees in the designated eating area. 2. From the standpoint of management and control this system could be the most feasible in shelters with extremely crowded conditions. VIII. Food Sanitation and Hygiene A. The serious consequences of disease under shelter conditions justify extreme precautionary measures in the preparation and serving of food. (27) B. Individual rations distributed at mealtime with immediate disposal of packages and waste is the most sanitary system. • C. Precautionary measures should include health inspections of feeding per- sonnel and daily self - evaluations for health and medical conditions includ- ing infections which may be hazardous in food handlers. D. Empty containers and waste food can be dumped into plastic bags or other tight containers after each meal and stored until it is safe to remove to the outside. IX. Feeding Personnel A. The number of persons required to carry out feeding functions will depend on the design of the shelter facility, the feeding system adopted, and the number of occupants. B. Except where feasible to select and train a small cadre preattack, team members should be recruited from the shelter occupants. C. The distribution of the basic food and water rations requires only a small number of personnel to: 1. After hands have been washed or cleaned, break open food packages and hand allotted number of survival biscuits to each shelter occupant. 2. Fill cups from the 17.5 gallon water containers. • D. Where feeding operations are limited to the distribution of the basic food and water ration, the person responsible to supervise feeding in a large shelter may designate an assistant for each section in the shelter, especially if the shelter feeding operation is based on a distribution point for each section. _Helpers can be recruited by each assistant from within his section. E. Persons selected to supervise feeding functions are responsible to: 1. Plan and direct the system of food preparation and distribution. 2. Determine the number and types of feedings in keeping with available supplies. 3. Plan individual food and water rations and be prepared to change caloric intake as required. 4. Provide for cleaning and storing of any utensils and dishes and sani- tation of the feeding area. F. Persons selected as feeding supervisors should be experienced in preparation and serving of food, should be familiar with nutrient and caloric values of any available foods in the shelter, and should be able to train and supervise assistants. •G. Possible sources of qualified personnel are those experienced in restaurant, hotel, or institutional food preparation and serving and those with military or other experience in the preparation and serving of food. (28) • 0 CHAPTER EIGHT SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS I. General Sleeping arrangements in community shelters, while austere,must be carefully considered and planned+ Since sleeping takes up the greatest amount of floor space of any single shelter activity, it is the most significant factor in determining shelter capacity. Also, since 1/3 of every day is needed for sleeping, the arrangements for this should be as comfortable as conditions allow. II. Basic Sleeping Plan The provisions placed in shelters by DOD -OCD do not include sleeping equipment. This means, in general, that shelterees will sleep on the floor using their own personal effects as pads or covering. Some arrangements can be improvised with material on hand or brought in by the shelterees, The basic management plan below is based on the assumption of no special sleeping facilities or supplies. III. Desirable Supplies for Shelters A. Lack of storage space will prevent pre - stocking of many supplies. But the shelter inhabitants should be encouraged to bring additional supplies at the time of occupancy. Blankets, air mattresses or portable cots might be included and should be allowed inside the shelter if compatible with storage space and pre - determined shelter regulations. The shelter manage- ment should not interfere with personal use of these additional supplies unless they are urgently needed to alleviate the discomfort of other shelterees. The loan of such supplies to the comfort of sick bay patients or to elderly people should be encouraged on a voluntary basis before being assigned by management as necessary. B. Collapsible multi -tier bunks would greatly increase the comfort of shelter sleeping as well as the amount of usable floor space. The use of bunks should be considered in shelters where suitable storage space can be ob- tained and if Hinds are provided for their purchase by the building manager or owner. 19. Sleeping Space A, It is a responsibility of the shelter management to plan and allocate ' space to provide the most comfortable and manageable sleeping arrangements for the shelterees. B. Shelter capacity based on 10 square feet per person does not allow much individual room. Therefore, shelterees must sleep close together and with a minimum of aisle space. C. The most compact sleeping arrangement would foot -to -foot with narrow aisles between row • for sanitary reasons and lessens chances of sleepers. One alternate method would be to foot in double rows. This allows even less between heads. ( �9) be double rows of sleepers, s of heads. This is desirable heads being kicked ty restless have adjacent sleepers head -to- opportunity for germ contact i D. Definite assignments of individual sleeping space may not be possible since it is doubtful that sleeping rows could form in identical order on •' different nights. However, assignments of group space on the basis of floor layout and type of population should be considered. E. To conserve space, two small children can fit into a-row of sleepers in the space normally occupied by one adult. Also, rows formed by people of approximately the same length will allow the fullest space utilization. F. Where only a single open space is available, single men should form sleeping rows at one end, single women at the opposite end, and family groups in the middle. Some experimentation in the beginning will allow a delineation of the general space required for each category. These boundaries should be observed thereafter. Small children, regardless of sex, should remain with parents in the family area of the shelter. G. If the shelter space is broken up by walls or partitions, some variations of sleeping space are possible. A small isolated area for a sick bay is one priority use of such space. Other areas would allow separation of unattached people of opposite sex. Further space division might allow separate sleeping quarters for the elderly, youths, etc. The pattern for each shelter must be decided on the kind of space available and the characteristics of the shelter population. H. Under circumstances of extreme crowding in a shelter, or if separate rooms are available, shift sleeping should be considered. This might result in more individual sleeping space and less crowded areas for non- sleeping activities. Shift sleeping could be arranged in b or 8 hour shifts. Shift assignments for sleeping would allow fuller use of available cots, bedding, etc., where there are limited supplies. V. Improvised Partitions A. Where there are no natural partitions,,the shelter management may find suitable material for improvising. If radiation monitoring determines it possible, short trips should be made to other parts of the building housing the shelter, or outside the building, to find partition material. B. Folding screens, portable blackboards, map racks, bulletin boards, signs and easily removed dividers are examples of desirable temporary partitions. Chairs and tables can be used but take up valuable space. VI. Bedding A. Each shelteree's clothing - shirts, coats, jackets, will have to serve as floor covering, pillow and night covering in the absence of blankets. B. Voluntary loaning of such articles of clothing, by those with extras to those with none, should be encouraged. The shelter management may have to assist in distributing these items if the need becomes apparent. C. Blankets available in stock or brought in by shelterees should be allocated by the management with obvious priority given to the sick and elderly, or to the young children. (30) VII. Sleeping Hours • A. Where a single open space is all that is available, all shelterees, except persons on watch, observe the same sleeping hours. The lowest possible noise and light levels must be enforced during sleeping hours as deter- mined by the shelter management with the counsel of the advisory committee. • • B. Where shift sleeping is employed, quiet hours should be continuously enforced in the sleeping area. VIII. Staff A. Designation of sleeping space and its arrangements should be determined by the shelter management with the advice and counsel of the advisory committee. B. Unit and section leaders should be responsible for sleeping arrangements, use of blankets, extra clothing for bedding, etc., within the space assigned to their groups. (31) C. Mothers with infant children should take a supply of disposable diapers to the shelter with them. • D. Each individual or family should have ready to take to shelter a small kit including sanitary napkins, tissues and waterless skin cleaners, baby powder or other items. V. Health Operations A. As soon as the shelter begins filling, persons with serious health problems should be directed to the sick bay area of the shelter. Treatment should be administered only to the critically ill pending the activation of the health unit. B. Medical conditions requiring attention - -such as contagious diseases, pregnancies at term, or the acutely ill -- should be entered on the registration cards and wherever possible immediate action taken by the person responsible for health and sanitation. C. Health instruction in the shelter information and training program should stress medical self -help and preventative measures such as hygiene and sanitation. The need to conserve medical supplies also should be emphasized. .D. Health, hygiene and environmental rules should be posted and stressed in lectures and discussions. Strict enforcement must be maintained. E. Only people with health problems beyond the scope of medical self -help • should see the health supervisor. F. Daily sick call or a daily check will be instituted to survey the routine complaints. G. The operation of the sick bay shall be the responsibility of the Health Officer which includes arrangement and administrative direction. H. Medical supplies shall be under the custodianship of the supply and maintenance personnel and should be dispensed only under the direction of the Health Officer. Special medicines should be released according to the established instructions for use. I. If any cases of contagious disease occur, the patient must be completely isolated if possible. VI. Sanitation Operations* A. Latrine areas shall be designated by the health and sanitation personnel according to instructions contained in the DOD -OCD sanitation lit. These should be in corners or relatively untraveled sections of the shelter. B. Each latrine area shall have a facility for basic hand cleaning. Towels should not be disposed of after a single use, since this might strain the waste disposal capacity; they can be reused safely a number of times. Cloth • towels are not desirable since there probably will be no washing facilities for them. *Maintenance and Supply is responsible to provide engineering and maintenance skills and services in accordance with health standards established by Health and Sanitation.

Restorative actions that will be taken by the local, State and Federal governments. 10. Responsibilities of the individual to cooperate with and assist in government efforts when he emerges from shelter; III. Special Activities A. It is important for the shelter manager to see that a diversified program, appropriate to both sexes and to all age groups, is conducted. B. If possible, shelters should be stocked with games, reading materials • (particularly pocket books), crossword puzzels, playing cards, simple toys, song books, handicraft materials, and similar items. Where storage space is not available, plans should include provisions for shelterees to bring suitable items with them when entering the shelter. C. Separation of age and sex groups may be accomplished, if desired, by use of improvised partitions such as tables or chairs. D. Where possible, consideration should be given to some participation in special activities on a group or team basis. Friendly competitive rivalry can do much to sustain morale and assure tolerance of shelter living. Competition among shelter units or sections might be considered. E. Every effort should be made to see that each individual participates in appropriate phases of the program. F. The desires of the shelterees should be followed as extensively as possible in planning and conducting special activities. G. Vigorous and strenuous activities should be avoided to prevent raising the temperature of the shelter to uncomfortable limits and to avoid stimulating appetites for food and water. IV. Spiritual Activities • A. It is important that provision be made for those persons wishing to engage in spiritual worship and other religious activities. B. Since a large segment of the population has a strong desire for worship and divine guidance which will increase under shelter conditions, consid- eration should be given to: (36) 1. The provision of spiritual literature in the shelter. • 2. Individual worship. 3. Time should be set aside each day to permit those who wish to worship to do so. 4. Religious discussions. 5. Spiritual coynseling (where qualified religious leaders are available). C. Where professional clergy is not present in a shelter the best qualified layman, with appropriate assistants, should be selected to plan and conduct spiritual activities. Those selected may be useful in assisting the shelter management with problems involving emotionally disturbed persons. D. Spiritual activities within the shelter should reflect the thinking and the wishes of the shelterees. V. Information and Education Personnel A. The qualifications and the number of persons required to carry out information and education functions will vary in accordance with the size of the shelter, its design and facilities, and the make up of the shelter population. • B. 'Except where necessary to select and train an information and education officer or a small group of leaders in advance to assure an adequate program, persons to conduct information and education activities can be recruited from the shelter occupants. C. It is the responsibility of those selected to develop schedules for the various activities and to recruit and organize the leadership necessary to carry on the program. D. In small shelters one or two persons, or a very small group, may be all that is required to assist the shelter manager with all information and training functions. In large shelters it may be necessary to have a separate person or group, for each of the three areas: (1) information and education, �2) special activities, and (3) spiritual activities, under an over -all officer for information and education. E. Possible sources of qualified persons to give over -all supervision to information and education functions are local leaders in education, newspaper, radio, television, school teachers and professional and lay leaders of religious organizations. F. Possible sources of qualified persons to conduct special activities are local directors of recreation, lay church leaders, school teachers, athletic directors, and YMCA and YWCA personnel. • G. The ministerial profession and qualified lay persons should be looked to for leadership in spiritual activities. (37) 1. The provision of spiritual literature in the shelter. • 2.

The length of shelter stay depends partly on the level of radiation jesent in the immediate area and partly on the availability of adequate and safe lodging facilities within the community or elsewhere to which the shelterees can go. c B. Leaving the shelter should not be regarded as a final occurrance in the sense that at a pre-set time all shelterees can return to their homes or proceed to other lodgings and never enter the shelter again. Danger from fallout may continue in various areas for a long time, thus, the shelter facility may play an important part in some of the people's lives for s several weeks. C. The measurement of the current radiation dose rate outside the shelter - and the rough prediction of future radiation levels are relatively more, simple than predicting a "proper" length of shelter stay. This decision depends on several other less definitive factors, such as the effects on the shelter population of severe overcrowding, lack of air, water, medicine, etc., as well as on the availability of appropriate outside lodging. Con- sequently, there is no sure way to determine in advance the best time to quit a shelter. • II. Responsibilities of Management A. Where radiation is present, the most important thing for the shelter manager to remember in deciding when to direct occupants to leave the shelter (temporarily or permanently) is: The longer the wait the less the danger. To take advantage of this time factor it is necessary to still have a supply of survival items and also to consider the following:k 1. Making shelter living progressively more comfortable by improvisations or by acquisition of additional materials through short trips outside: the shelter. t 2. Providing good lights and reading materials, better food, recreational` facilities and other conveniences. These assume increasing importance,_ in the weeks following an attack, and may actually prolong life. B. Management, shall acquaint the shelterees with the specific reasons (varying in particular instances) why they should stay in shelter unless there is better reason to be outside it. C. In general shelterees must not be exposed to significant radiation dose levels unless necessary in contributing to the welfare of the people or the rehabilitation of the community -- securing needed supplies, decontami- nating, repairing, cultivating, rebuilding, and the like. Therefore, th.0 • shelter manager should strive to preserve a reasonable balance between shelter and stagnation on one hand, and danger and action on the other if it becomes necessary to keep the shelter in operation for a long period y of time. ; (38) D. The shelter manager must know as much as possible about radiation levels in the surrounding areas in order to know what the dangers are. He should keep track of the amount of radiation doses the people are acquiring so that no individual or group receives an excessive amount. (See Chapter 4, Radiological.) E. Where communications between the shelter and the District Shelter Manage- ment E.O.C. exist, the shelter manager must conform to all instructions received with respect to any movement of people from the shelter. III. Temporary Emergence A. As indicated above, emergency trips from shelter by selected individuals may be required to replenish serious shortages in survival items or to meet some other emergency need. Missions outside the protected shelter area will be planned with the radiological personnel and authorized by the shelter manager. B. In addition, the shelter manager with concurrence of the St, Paul Director of Civil Defense shall decide when the shelterees in general should be permitted to leave the shelter for short periods in the interest of morale. C. The shelter manager shall operate under conservative assumptions in allowing such trips. For example, if he determines it relatively safe for people to be outdoors for ten minutes he should permit five minute stays to be assured that all persons will get back within the prescribed period. • D. In the heavier populated shelters it is recommended that temporary trips outside be by small groups on a rotation basis. This will facilitate control and lower any individual dose rate. IV. Permanent Vacating of the Shelter A. The shelter manager must exercise caution in advising shelterees of the probable length of shelter stay. An underestimab.on of time might cause serious unrest. Until he is fairly sure of the accuracy of his forecasts (or until his projections have been confirmed front the outside), he should refrain from specifying an anticipated departure time. B. Before permanently vacating the shelter, the shelter manager must have aasurance that all shelterees can return to their homes o- that satis- factory provision has been made for their safe transport and assignmapt to lodgings elsewhere. C. Plans for vacating the shelter must be correlated with the overall post - shelter emergency plans of the St. Paul Director of Civil Defense. (39) f LJ APPENDIX A COMMUNICATIONS I. Bas_ is Equipment A. Many designated shelters will be in places with access to existing tele- phones. When telephones are available and operable they will serve as basic communications. B. Plans should be made to insure that at least one battery operated AM radio receiver plus extra.batteries will be made available in the shelter for reception -of emergency broadcasting information. C. Two -gray radio is being considered as back-up to telephone communications. D. The communication "package" in the shelter includes ample paper and pencils for maintaining a message log and for recording messages for the shelter manager and staff. A standard form for transmitting and logging messages is provided. E. Complete communication instructions., outlining the community's communica- tions plan will be printed and placed with the equipment. Such instructions will cover standard terminology, reporting schedules, contact points (city- wide and district offices). II. Other Desirable Items A. Standard electricity operated receivers which can be used where electric power is uninterrupted to monitor broadcasts while conserving batteries in portable receivers. B. Portable transmitting- receiving equipment belonging to members of units of RACES (Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service. Plans will be made, to have designated "hams," take their portable equipment to shelters upon receipt of warning. C. Radio receivers with earphone attachments. These are preferable for nighttime monitoring in areas where reception might bother sleeping shelterees, and to provide control of information dissemination when this is ,desirable'. III. Communications Operations A. As soon as ,shelter operations begin, all communications equipment shall be tested. B. Monitoring operations 1. Continuous monitoring of broadcast networks should be maintained day and night. 2. Broadcast monitors should log all pertinent information and relay { aall information to the shelter manager. Al M C. Radio and telephone communications or 1. Transceiver and /or telephone equipment should be adjacent to the administrative area. 2. Two -way conversations must be limited to those authorized by the shelter manager and the person responsible for communications and should be consistent with prevailing rules and procedures. Communi- cation should be conducted only with designated points. 3. To keep channels free of unnecessary activity, messages shall be limited to regularly scheduled reports and emergency information. 4. The shelter manager shall review and approve all outgoing messages. 5. Heavy volume message traffic, such as exchange of lists of shelteree names and their location, should only be attempted under rules announced after shelter entry. 6. Communicators should summarize messages and conversations in the communications log, and should relay necessary information to the management staff. D. Internal communication operations 1. PA system, loudspeakers or battery powered megaphones,if available, used for internal communications should be used only by the shelter • manageror those authorized by him. 2. Internal communications should be limited to vital information to preserve the impact of important announcements; routine information should be written and posted in officigl message locations or dissemi- nated through the division, section, or squad leaders. 3. When regularly scheduled news announcements are due on radio broadcasts, the volume on receiver sets may be turned up so that shelterees get = information directly. IQ. Communications Maintenance A. Essential spare parts for shelter communications equipment may or may not be available. B. Where available, maintenance manuals and' instructions shall be placed with the equipment in the shelter. C. Preattack maintenance shall include periodic testing of equipment and replacement ,of weak batteries. D. Conservation and maintenance of power supply are essential to continuing operation of communication equipment. A -2 11 is V# Communications Personnel A. The shelter manager shall appoint a qualified person to be responsible, for the operation and maintenance of rich communications as exist, includ- ing keeping a 24 -hour communications watch and the maintenance of a, communication log. B. A person with communications experience, including short-wave radio, and with the ability to organize, operate and maintain a communication system should be selected wherever possible. Sources include persons with military communications experience and amateur radio operators. C. Additional communication specialists can be selected in accordance with the size of the shelter and the communication operating requirements. {A-3 d I l i r i t { i i • U i SHELTF5t SUPPLIES PROVISIOISS SUPPLIED BY 1.
