Is it time to dust off and reconsider your disaster plan? Does it go far enough to protect the overall program and not just the animals in times of natural disasters? While the USDA’s contingency planning rule now lays out specific areas to cover, programs should determine if there are other programmatic areas to consider as part of business continuity planning and ability to maintain operations. Even if an institution does not maintain regulated species, having an agile, accurate, and accessible plan can be a lifeline. Join this session to think beyond the standard considerations and into the bigger picture of response and reestablishing operations in light of a disaster.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand what could impact an institution beyond the standard considerations of natural disasters (e.g., cyber attack, smoke from wildfires, breach of facilities)
  • Consider how to respond to disasters (e.g., what are the risks, who has the knowledge, who are the stakeholders, who are the responders, what communication actions/timelines are needed, who should be part of this chain)
  • Expand thinking beyond the vivarium (i.e., does your IACUC know how to operate in the face of a disaster, should your plan include digital access considerations, how should you implement such a plan)
