While an evacuation of the event site may occur for a number of reasons, in all cases the primary goal is to safely and quickly remove all participants from the event site until it is safe to return. Depending on the urgency of the situation, vehicles and property may be left behind.
Evacuation personnel will be posted at each event HQ, the intersection of roads, and porta potty areas to direct participants and answer questions, they will be equipped with a radio.Evacuation personnel will report to the Rangers & Burning Arts & Response Team leads on a designated radio channel: 1 Safety.The Ranger and Burning Arts & Response Team coordinator will be at HQ and will work directly with BOD.
Entry Road will be closed to oncoming traffic as outgoing traffic will take priority over other vehicular traffic. Gate staff will direct vehicles to turn around and leave the event site in order to ease strain on road space while participants leave the event.
Starting at the most Northeastern point of the event site, Rangers will sweep the event grounds making every effort to evacuate or inform participants from each area.As the Rangers pass the evacuation posts, Once assured every area between the farthest North East area and entrance has been cleared, those posts will be abandoned.Then the last remaining staff will abandon HQ and complete the event evacuation.
Any Parking Crew that is on shift during the emergency will be stationed at the Parking lot and the single lane road leading through the entrance to help pulse cars and prevent collisions. Using radio communication with Gate and Rangers vehicles/participants will be moved from all locations toward the Gate.
