3) Security procedures and polices, such as personnel security, physical security, key and badge control, system control and operational data, chemical and other vendor deliveries, as well as security and emergency response training, exercises and drills, For the Eugene/Springfield Metro Area, vigilance and modest upgrades to existing physical security, cyber security, and security procedures and policies may be all that are reasonably required. For the highest profile buildings, such as the Federal Building, barriers to restrict vehicles reaching close proximity to the building, to the extent practical, might also warrant consideration. The potential impacts of terrorism or other malevolent deliberate actions in the Eugene/Springfield Metro Area can also be mitigated by improving emergency response capabilities, Such types of actions, such as fires or explosions, are self-evident and emergency responders are well trained for dealing with such situations, Other types of actions such as release of radiological materials, bioterrorism, or contamination of water or food supplies may not be immediately recognized. For such types of actions, close cooperation with public health officials and awareness of the possibility of deliberate actions are important. Such situations also commonly require specialized expertise and equipment to detect and identify the radiologicah biological or chemical materials used in an attack. Emergency response plans should be updated and expanded, as necessary, to cover such situations, including protocols for public notifications and information about appropriate public responses such as shelter in place or evacuation. The following table contains terrorism mitigation action items from the master Action Items table in Chapter 4, Public Review Draft: October 14, 2004 15-4
