Emergency Management

Located within the University of Louisville Police Department and Office of Public Safety, the Emergency Management Program leads the coordination of campus, local, state, federal, and other community resources to provide comprehensive emergency management operations to the University of Louisville community. Emergency Management oversees the prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery activities that protect life, property, and the environment from all man-made and natural threats and disasters that impact the campus community and its neighbors.

The Building Emergency Action Plans are managed by the building occupants and reviewed by Emergency Management on a regular basis. Each building has a Building Emergency Coordinator (BEC) and an Alternate who manages the BEAP for their building and lead actions during emergencies. The BEC program was established to coordinate emergency planning and preparedness efforts among UofL Buildings. Typically, a campus building is occupied by multiple departments, making building-wide communications difficult during normal operations, let alone during an emergency. This program serves to assist first responders and Emergency Management by developing a common, building-wide plan of action for emergencies that threaten life safety.

BEC’s will typically communicate with assigned floor leaders and alternates for each floor for each building. Training for building occupants is provided by the BEC's or upon request, by Emergency Management. For questions and concerns regarding a particular building, you can utilize the contact list below to get in touch with specific BEC's. For more information regarding BEAPs or BECs, please contact Mindy Christian or Jennifer Twagira.

A hazardous material spill must be reported to the University of Louisville Department of Public Safety (852-6111 or 911) if the clean-up of the spill is beyond the level of knowledge, training or ability of the staff in the immediate area of the spill, and/or the spill creates a situation that is immediately dangerous to the people in the area or the facility.

Emergency Management offers training in many areas. Some of this training is provided through downloadable presentations and others are provided by staff. We can customize training for a department or university building or provide specific training with functional exercises. Training is provided at no cost to the requesting unit.
