Summary
Standardized emergency communication guidance for Federal buildings to help facility security officials warn tenants and coordinate safety actions during life safety events.

The guidance must cover events that prompt first responder deployment and include standard operating procedures to inform tenants and practical safety instructions for occupants. A designated official at each GSA‑protected building must implement the guidance locally.
