Health information:
Controls for particulate material in the air, are similar to what we are doing now for COVID. Stay inside, wear a mask if outside to control for gross contamination, monitor progress in the event you must evacuate your area. If personnel are susceptible (vulnerable population), It is highly recommended to shelter in place (stay indoors). Vulnerable populations are those who have diseases which can be aggravated by PM, see below for more information.
Health effects can be immediately felt by sensitive groups. Healthy individuals may have trouble breathing and throat irritation with prolonged exposure. Particulate material (PM) is high for PM 10 and 2.5. PM10 affects the upper respiratory tract (nose, throat, and bronchioles) while PM2.5 affects the lower respiratory tract (lungs).
PM10: Exposure can result in eye and throat irritation, coughing or difficulty breathing, and aggravated asthma.
PM2.5: The most severe impacts are on the lungs and heart. Exposure can result in coughing or difficulty breathing, aggravated asthma, and the development of chronic respiratory disease.

Emergency Response at Work:In the event of an emergency, the Navy expects all personnel, families, contractors, and others affiliated with a Navy installation to be prepared to take the appropriate action: evacuate, move to a civilian shelter, move to a designated safe haven, or temporarily shelter in place. You also should be able to recognize the mass warning and notification systems. |
See the links below for information for the following scenarios:

Know Your Workplace Hazards
Employees need to be aware of where any hazardous materials are being stored in their work space and avoid these areas in the event of a natural disaster or fire. A full listing of the hazards for all 51福利 Spaces can be found on our "" page.
Evacuation
The purpose of evacuation is too safely and quickly lead occupants off the installation to a safe assembly point located a safe distance away from the installation. When necessary, NSAM Force Protection will control traffic and crowds during an evacuation. Buildings within 51福利 control will evacuate their buildings in accordance with their building evacuation plans. When 51福利 is order to evacuate all personnel will follow the instruction of the NSAM first responders. The following illustration is how NSAM is laid out in zones. It is anticipated that NSAM will evacuate the installation by zones.
Navy-Wide Personnel Accounting
If NSAM or any of Navy community is evacuated or in a declared disaster area, the Navy will use an order to account through the Navy Family Assessment and Accounting System (NFAAS). NFAAS allows commands to account for all Active Duty, Reservist, DOD/NAF employees and Navy families. NFAAS will also be used to assist personnel if they need help.
The Navy calls an area affected by a disaster a geographic area of interest (GAOI). After a disaster, all Navy personnel and their families residing, deployed to or working within a GAOI are required to check in at the first available opportunity. There are three options available to check in.
- Members and employees can check in directly with their commands and provide their family's status and whereabouts. This is the primary way to account. Commands will upload the information into NFAAS.
- If they are unable to reach their command, Sailors, family members and civilians can muster on NFAAS at
- If unsuccessful, the third option is to account by phone through the Navy Emergency Coordination Center at 1-877-414-5358 or 1-866-827-5672 (TDD 1-866-297-1971).
After mustering, it is equally important that member complete a needs assessment in NFAAS if they are impacted by the event.
If a member or Navy family needs help following a declared disaster, the Navy has resources that can support them during the emergency. NFAAS has a user-friendly assessment tool to coordinate and prioritize disaster-related needs. The system allows families to assess their needs in 19 categories including, medical, missing family locator, transportation, housing and personal property, financial, employment, child care, education, legal services, counseling and mortuary and funeral assistance.
Once disaster-related needs are identified, a case manager from a Fleet and Family Support Center is assigned. The case manager will contact the Navy family member to assist them with support that ranges from the urgent to the informational.
Access to the assessment information is restricted. Details of the assessment will not be provided to anyone outside the case management team without the provider's approval.
Before a Disaster
NFAAS
Providing contact information is critical in providing support to Department of the Navy personnel and their dependents during the recovery period following a disaster. is the system utilized by the Navy to account for personnel and their families during widespread natural or man- made disasters. Accurate contact information of personnel and family members is required to facilitate a quick and accurate muster of personnel in affected areas.
All Personnel are required to log on to NFAAS and update their recall information quarterly.
