Societal security — Mass evacuation — Guidelines for planning

ISO 22315:2014 provides guidelines for mass evacuation planning in terms of establishing, implementing, monitoring, evaluating, reviewing, and improving preparedness. It establishes a framework for each activity in mass evacuation planning for all identified hazards. It will help organizations to develop plans that are evidence-based and that can be evaluated for effectiveness. ISO 22315:2014 is intended for use by organizations with responsibility for, or involvement in, part or all of the planning for mass evacuation. It is applicable to all types and sizes of organizations that are involved in the planning for mass evacuation, such as local, regional, and national governments; statutory bodies; international and non-governmental organizations; businesses; and public and social groups. ISO 22315:2014 covers planning for mass evacuation in order to gain a more effective response during the actual evacuation. It will assist organizations to meet their obligation of saving human life and reducing suffering. ISO 22315:2014 does not cover activities to stabilize the affected area after an evacuation, protect property, and preserve the environment.

Introduction
This International Standard provides guidance on planning for mass evacuation. An evacuation in
response to a risk or threat is the movement of people from a designated area. In this context a mass
evacuation is characterized by the need for multi-agency collaboration and resources. Typically this
involves a larger number of people or wider area at risk. It is difficult to define mass evacuation in terms
of numbers or scale because disasters, communities and responder capabilities differ. However, it can
be considered in terms of the number of evacuees exceeding an everyday scale of response such as the
evacuation of a city, region or large populated area.
The need for evacuation can arise from naturally occurring events, human induced events (both
intentional and unintentional) and events caused by technological failures. Some events require an
immediate evacuation while others give advanced warning.
Effective planning is important to help save human life and reduce suffering. Planning helps to deliver
an effective response and is part of emergency management. This International Standard provides
guidance for developing mass evacuation plans, supporting decision-making, increasing the potential
for an effective response, and strengthening preparedness of the public and organizations. It also
recognizes that there are barriers that could hinder people from evacuating, such as concern for pets,
valuable possessions or items that sustain livelihoods.
This International Standard is intended for use by those responsible for establishing mass evacuation
plans as well as preparing locations to receive evacuees on a mass scale. It includes the following eight
activities that also provide the structure to the eight clauses in this International Standard (Clauses 4 to
11), the order of which does not necessarily suggest a sequence.
Table 1 — Clauses 4-11 in this International Standard
General aspects for mass evacuation planning (Clause 4)
Prepare Visualize the Make the Public Analyse Assess Evaluate and
the public areas that evacuation warning evacuee evacuee continually
for mass are at risk decision (Clause 8) movement shelter improve
evacuation or affected (Clause 7) (Clause 9) requirements (Clause 11)
(Clause 5) (Clause 6) (Clause 10)
Table 1 illustrates that there are some general aspects for mass evacuation planning (Clause 4) (for
example, risk assessment and exercising) and these support the provisions contained in Clauses 5 to 11.
A plan to prepare the public to react effectively (Clause 5) and a plan to understand and visualize an area
at risk and/or an affected area (Clause 6) provide decision-makers with information to enable them to
decide whether to call for an evacuation. A plan to make the decision to call for an evacuation (Clause 7)
aims to ensure that the decision-making process, objectives and participants are appropriate. A plan to
warn the public of the need to react as advised (Clause 8) considers protocols for communication and
community-based warning systems. Plans also consider the analysis of evacuee movement to an area of
safety (Clause 9), for example, to understand transportation needs, demands and availability. Plans also
aim to assess evacuee shelter requirements (Clause 10). For example, they can identify the demand for
shelters and establish agreements to provide shelters. A plan for evaluating and continually improving
evacuation plans (Clause 11) concludes this International Standard.
While this International Standard recognizes the importance of stabilizing the affected area after an
evacuation, as well as the importance of protecting property and preserving the environment, these
aspects are not its main focus.

4 General aspects for mass evacuation planning
4.1 Introduction
The organization should develop, implement and document transparent decision-making processes,
some of which are common across all activities for mass evacuation planning. Clause 4 details planning
issues which are common across Clauses 5 to 11, including:
— risk assessment (4.2);
— compliance with legislations and policies (4.3);
— information gathering and analysis (4.4);
— planning operational resource allocation (4.5);
— planning and documenting processes (4.6);
— effective multi-agency partnering arrangements (4.7);
— training and exercising (4.8).
4.2 Risk assessment
The organization should develop processes for risk management which includes performing a risk
assessment in accordance with ISO 31000 and ISO/IEC 31010. The risk assessments should be:
— strategic (determining the risks associated with when to order an evacuation) or tactical (deciding
to evacuate an area with a high proportion of vulnerable people, thereby creating a higher risk of
being unable to evacuate them in time);
— conducted for specific locations (including the shelter area);
— conducted for known risks and their different evacuation scenarios;
— conducted before, during and after an evacuation to understand how the situation changes over
time in terms of the hazard, population, infrastructure and transportation;
— used to influence resource management and the evacuation response;
— updated during an incident as new data are received from different sources.

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 22315:2014(E)

4.3 Compliance with legislation and policies
The organization should be aware of all applicable legislation and relevant policies and develop plans for
mass evacuation that are consistent with their requirements.
The organization should use applicable legislation and policies operating at international, national,
regional and local levels. These should:
— be used to plan for mass evacuation and inform the plans, activities, decisions and models developed;
— be consulted to understand what can and cannot be done to protect the public;
— consider situations where people decide not to evacuate and to determine the risks;
— consider the responsibilities of different organizations during a mass evacuation and the regulations
that govern these organizations;
— be used to document and demonstrate how to limit the organization’s liability and the damage to
its reputation;
— be monitored regularly as part of the planning process to identify changes that could affect the
mass evacuation plan.
4.4 Information gathering and analysis
The organization should gather information from multiple sources of planning information and consider
the value of each aspect. The information gathered should include the following:
— the demographics of people in an area at risk;
— the proportion of people who would take their own evacuation transport;
— the people who would use evacuation shelters.
The organization should assess the quality of information gathered, determine its reliability and
potential long and short-term consequences, and its influence on the evacuation decision, using the
following criteria:
— the frequency with which the information is updated;
— the source of the information;
— the methods used to gather the information;
— the level of detail available in the information.
The organization should assess the reliability and credibility of information in accordance with the
procedure in ISO 22320.
The organization should use existing or new research information to enable an evidence-based approach
to mass evacuation planning. Sources of existing research can include the following:
— academic research;
— pre-evacuation and post-evacuation surveys;
— practitioner reports;
— post-disaster reports;
— post-exercise reports;
© ISO 2014 – All rights reserved 3

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
ISO 22315:2014(E)

— publications and websites from past projects, research and professional and government
organizations.
New research can provide situation-specific information to support evidence-based plans and decisions.
The organization and partnering organizations should use reasonable and worst-case scenario
simulations to analyse information to understand what might happen when assumptions about a
disaster change.
The organization should permit direct access to simulation models in order to update the assumptions
and information and re-run scenarios.
4.5 Planning operational resource allocation
The organization should consider during the preparation phase what constitutes an appropriate
response and what human and technical resources should be available both in the evacuation area and
the areas that could receive evacuees.
The organization should identify the resources required to assist the evacuation. For example:
— personnel and their capabilities;
— logistics and equipment capabilities;
— transportation;
— shelter provision.
The organization should conduct a rapid needs assessment and prioritization in the response phase to
determine what resources are required to adequately support a mass evacuation.
4.6 Planning and documenting processes
The organization should establish a formal process to set operational targets and measure their
achievement in response to an evacuation order.
The process should be included in the formal plans and integrated with contingency plans. Formal plans
should include the following:
— a documented strategy to disseminate a warning message;
— ways to prepare organizations that manage evacuations and prepare the public;
— planning processes and procedures integrated into the organization’s management system so that
plans are regularly reviewed and updated.
Organizations and partnering organizations should become familiar with each other’s plans, identify
any conflicts, understand how the plans relate and interact and provide for an integrated response.
4.7 Effective multi-agency partnering arrangements
The organization should identify other organizations and groups to participate in a multi-agency
partnership. The multi-agency partnership should specify the delegation of authority to improve the
breadth, depth and efficiency of the planning process and reduce barriers to collaboration when a multi-
agency response is required. Engagement can take the form of consultation, participation and support.
Partnering organizations can include the following:
— fire, police and paramedic services as well as other emergency response departments;
— military services;
4 © ISO 2014 – All rights reserved

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO 22315:2014(E)

— critical infrastructure facilities (in the area at risk and the surrounding regions);
— environmental and local government officials;
— domain experts, such as nuclear experts and seismologists;
— non-governmental organizations;
— local media and communications;
— representatives of the population (see Table 2).
Effective multi-agency partnering arrangements should include the following:
— designation of a lead organization allowing the partners to speak with a consistent voice;
— an incident management system;
— terms of reference, roles and responsibilities, a planning process and a mechanism for resolving
conflicts among the partnering organizations;
— coordination of mass evacuation planning;
— options for mutual aid;
— regular multi-agency meetings to discuss plans and share good practice;
— periodic review of the partnership and plans to confirm the effectiveness of the partnership and to
identify additional planning needs and new partners.
Each organization in the multi-agency partnership should have the ability to independently analyse
received data to address their specific questions.
The organization should establish partnering arrangements in accordance with the procedure in ISO 22397.
4.8 Training and exercising
The organization should make training and exercising an integral component of the planning process.
Training and exercises should include opportunities to:
— practice communication procedures;
— measure operational capabilities;
— test equipment such as decontamination systems;
— train new staff;
— coordinate with non-governmental
...

a risk or threat is the movement of people from a designated area. In this context, a mass evacuation is
characterized by the need for multi-agency collaboration and resources. Typically, this involves a larger
number of people or wider area being at risk. It‘s difficult to define mass evacuation in terms of numbers or
scale because disasters, communities and responder capabilities differ. However, it can be considered in
terms of the number of evacuees exceeding an everyday scale of response.
The need for evacuation can arise from naturally occurring events, human induced events (both intentional
and unintentional) and events cause by technology. Some events require an immediate or spontaneous
evacuation while others provide advanced warning.
Effective planning is important to help to save human life and reduce suffering. Planning helps to deliver an
effective response and is part of emergency management. This document provides guidance for developing
mass evacuation plans, supporting decision-making, increasing the potential for an effective response, and
strengthening preparedness of the public and organizations. It also recognizes that there are barriers that
could hinder people from evacuating such as: concern for pets, valuable possessions, or items that sustain
livelihoods.
This International Standard is intended for use by those responsible for establishing mass evacuation plans as
well as preparing locations to receive evacuees on a mass scale. It includes the following eight activities and
these provide the structure to the eight clauses in this International Standard (Clauses 4–11).


Figure 1 – The structure of this International Standard
This figure illustrates that there are some general aspects for mass evacuation planning (Clause 4) (for
example, risk assessment and training/exercising) and these support the provisions contained in Clauses 5–
11. A plan to prepare the public to react effectively (Clause 5) and a plan to understand and visualize an area
(Clause 6) provide decision-makers with the information about an area that is at risk and enable them to
decide whether to call an evacuation. A plan to make the decision to call an evacuation (Clause 7) aims to
ensure that the decision-making process, objectives and participants are appropriate. A plan to alert the public
of the need to react as advised (Clause 8) considers protocols for communication and community-based
warning systems. Plans also consider the analysis of evacuee movement from an area that is at risk to an
area of safety (Clause 9), for example, to understand transportation needs, demands and availability. Plans
also aim to assess evacuee shelter requirements (Clause 10). For example, they can identify the demand for
shelters and establish agreements to provide shelters. A plan for evaluating and continually improving
evacuation plans (Clause 11) concludes this International Standard.
While this International Standard recognizes the importance of stabilizing the affected area after an
evacuation, as well as the importance of protecting property and preserving the environment, these aspects
are not its main focus.

4 General aspects for mass evacuation planning
4.1 Introduction
There are many common tasks that should be considered when planning for different activities in mass
evacuation. For example, there’s a need to ensure that transparent decision-making processes are
documented across all activities. Also, plans to train and exercise particular roles, responsibilities and
responses that can help prepare organizations and their partners is important. Clause 4 details planning
issues which are common across Clauses 5–11, and include:
Risk assessment (4.2);
Compliance with legislations and policies (4.3);
Information gathering and analysis (4.4);
Planning operational resource allocation (4.5)
Planning and documenting (4.6);
Effective multi-agency partnering arrangements (4.7);
Training and exercising (4.8); and
Evaluation and improvement (4.9).
4.2 Risk assessment
In the context of mass evacuation, organizations should have clear processes for risk management. This
should involve conducting a risk assessment.
Risk assessments can be strategic (determining the risks associated with when to order an evacuation) or
tactical (deciding to evacuate an area with a high proportion of vulnerable people thereby creating a higher
risk of being unable to evacuate them in time). Risk assessments should be conducted for specific locations
and the risks that are known from all-hazards. This enables risk assessments to be conducted for different
evacuation scenarios.
Risk assessments can be conducted before, during and after an evacuation in order to understand how the
situation changes over time in terms of the hazard, population, infrastructure and transportation. Risk
assessments can influence resource management and the evacuation response. They should be updated
during an incident as new data are received from different sources.
A risk assessment as specified in ISO 31000:2009 and also in ISO/IEC 31010:2009 should be conducted as
part of the planning for mass evacuation.

ISO/CD 22315
4.3 Compliance with legislation and policies
The plans, activities, decisions and models that are used to plan for mass evacuation should be informed by
and conform to the legislations and policies operating at international, national, regional, and local levels.
Applicable legislation and policies should be consulted when developing plans to understand what can and
cannot be done to protect the public. Consideration should be given to situations where people decide not to
evacuate and the risks this poses to evacuation personnel. Consideration should also be given to the
responsibilities of different organizations during a mass evacuation and the regulations that govern these
organizations.
Documenting evidence that show attention to these matters could limit the organization’s liability and the
damage to its reputation.
Different levels of legislation, policies and guidance should be regularly monitored a

Introduction
La présente Norme internationale fournit des préconisations relatives à la planification en vue
d'une évacuation de masse. Une évacuation en réponse à un risque ou à une menace correspond au
déplacement des personnes se trouvant dans une zone désignée. Dans ce contexte, une évacuation
de masse se caractérise par la nécessité d'une collaboration et de ressources multiorganismes. Cela
implique en général un nombre plus élevé de personnes ou une zone à risque plus étendue. Il est
difficile de définir l'évacuation de masse en termes de nombre ou d'échelle, car les catastrophes, les
communautés et les capacités des intervenants varient. Elle peut cependant être envisagée en termes
de nombre de personnes évacuées dépassant une échelle de réponse quotidienne, telle que l'évacuation
d'une ville, d'une région ou d'une grande zone peuplée.
La nécessité d'une évacuation peut découler d'événements naturels, d'événements induits par l'homme
(intentionnels ou non) et d'événements provoqués par des défaillances techniques. Certains événements
exigent une évacuation immédiate tandis que d'autres nécessitent une alerte préalable.
Une planification efficace est importante pour aider à sauver des vies humaines et à réduire les
souffrances. Une planification aide à fournir une réponse efficace et fait partie de la gestion des
situations d'urgence. La présente Norme internationale fournit des préconisations pour l'élaboration
de plans d'évacuation de masse, le soutien à la prise de décisions, l'augmentation de la probabilité
d'une réponse efficace, et le renforcement de la préparation de la population et des organismes. Elle
reconnaît également qu'il existe des obstacles qui pourraient empêcher des personnes de procéder à
une évacuation, tels que l'importance accordée aux animaux de compagnie, aux objets de valeur ou aux
moyens de subsistance.
La présente Norme internationale est destinée à être utilisée par les personnes chargées d'élaborer
des plans d'évacuation de masse et de préparer les sites permettant d'accueillir les personnes évacuées
à grande échelle. Elle inclut les huit activités suivantes qui fournissent également la structure des
huit articles de la présente Norme internationale (Articles 4 à 11), dont la liste ne sous-entend pas
nécessairement un ordre.

(Article 10)
Le Tableau 1 montre qu'il existe certains aspects généraux relatifs à la planification d'une évacuation de
masse (Article 4) (par exemple: évaluation des risques et exercices) et que ceux-ci apportent leur soutien
aux dispositions contenues dans les Articles 5 à 11. Un plan destiné à préparer la population afin qu'elle
réagisse efficacement (Article 5) et un plan destiné à comprendre et à visualiser une zone à risque et/ou
une zone affectée (Article 6) fournissent aux décideurs des informations qui leur permettent de décider
s'ils doivent ou non ordonner une évacuation. Un plan permettant de décider d'ordonner une évacuation
(Article 7) vise à garantir que le processus décisionnel, ses objectifs et ses participants sont appropriés.
Un plan destiné à avertir la population de la nécessité de réagir tel que conseillé (Article 8) prend en
compte les protocoles de communication et les systèmes d'alerte communautaires. Les plans tiennent
également compte de l'analyse des déplacements des personnes évacuées vers une zone sûre (Article 9),
par exemple pour comprendre les besoins, exigences et disponibilités en matière de transports. Les
plans visent également à évaluer les besoins en hébergement des personnes évacuées (Article 10). Par
exemple, ils peuvent identifier les demandes d'hébergement et conclure des accords pour la fourniture
de ces hébergements. Un plan pour l'évaluation et l'amélioration continue des plans d'évacuation
(Article 11) conclut la présente Norme internationale.

directrices pour la planification
1 Domaine d'application
La présente Norme internationale fournit des lignes directrices pour la planification d'une évacuation
de masse en termes d'élaboration, de mise en œuvre, de contrôle, d'évaluation, de revue et d'amélioration
de la préparation. Elle établit un cadre pour chacune des activités de planification d'une évacuation de
masse pour tous les dangers identifiés. Elle aidera les organismes à élaborer des plans étayés par des
preuves scientifiques et dont l'efficacité peut être évaluée.
La présente Norme internationale est destinée à être utilisée par les organismes chargés de, ou
participant à, tout ou partie de la planification d'une évacuation de masse. Elle est applicable à tous les
types et toutes les tailles d'organismes impliqués dans la planification de l'évacuation de masse, tels que
les autorités locales, régionales et nationales, les organes statutaires, les organisations internationales
et non gouvernementales, les entreprises, ainsi que les groupes publics et sociaux.
La présente Norme internationale couvre la planification en vue d'une évacuation de masse afin
de permettre une réponse plus efficace durant l'évacuation elle-même. Elle aidera les organismes à
répondre à leur obligation de préservation des vies humaines et de réduction des souffrances.
La présente Norme internationale ne couvre pas les activités destinées à stabiliser la zone affectée
après une évacuation, à protéger les biens et à préserver l'environnement.

4 Aspects généraux relatifs à la planification d'une évacuation de masse
4.1 Introduction
Il convient que l'organisme élabore, mette en œuvre et documente des processus décisionnels
transparents, dont certains sont communs à toutes les activités de planification d’une évacuation
de masse. L'Article 4 détaille les problèmes de planification qui sont communs aux Articles 5 à 11,
notamment:
— l'évaluation des risques (4.2);
— la conformité avec la législation et les politiques (4.3);
— la collecte et l'analyse d'informations (4.4);
— la planification de l'allocation des ressources opérationnelles (4.5);
— les processus de planification et de documentation (4.6);
— les accords de partenariat multiorganisme efficaces (4.7);
— la formation et les exercices (4.8).
4.2 Évaluation des risques
Il convient que l'organisme élabore des processus de management du risque qui incluent la réalisation
d'une évaluation des risques conformément à l'ISO 31000 et l'IEC 31010. Il convient que les évaluations
des risques soient:
— stratégiques (déterminer les risques associés au moment du lancement de l'ordre d'évacuation) ou
tactiques (décider d'évacuer une zone comptant une grande part de personnes vulnérables, et créer
ainsi un risque plus grand de ne pas les évacuer à temps);
— réalisées pour des emplacements spécifiques (y compris la zone d'hébergement);
— réalisées pour des risques connus et leurs différents scénarios d'évacuation;
— réalisées avant, pendant et après une évacuation afin de comprendre comment la situation évolue
dans le temps en termes de danger, de population, d'infrastructure et de transports;
2 © ISO 2014 – Tous droits réservés

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
ISO 22315:2014(F)

— utilisées pour influencer la gestion des ressources et l'évacuation elle-même;
— mises à jour durant un incident à mesure que parviennent de nouvelles données émanant de
différentes sources.
4.3 Conformité avec la législation et les politiques
Il convient que l'organisme ait connaissance de toutes les législations et politiques pertinentes
applicables et élabore des plans d'évacuation de masse conformes à ces exigences.
Il convient que l'organisme utilise la législation et les politiques applicables en vigueur au niveau
international, national, régional et local. Il convient:
— qu'elles soient utilisées pour planifier une évacuation de masse et pour informer des plans, des
activités, des décisions et des modèles élaborés;
— qu'elles soient consultées afin de comprendre ce qu'il est possible de faire ou ne pas faire pour
protéger la population;
— qu'elles tiennent compte des situations où des personnes décident de ne pas évacuer pour en
déterminer les risques;
— qu'elles tiennent compte des responsabilités de différents organismes durant une évacuation de
masse et des règlementations qui régissent ces organismes;
— qu'elles soient utilisées pour documenter et démontrer comment limiter la responsabilité de
l'organisme et les atteintes à sa réputation;
— qu'elles soient contrôlées régulièrement dans le cadre du processus de planification afin d'identifier
les changements qui pourraient avoir une incidence sur le plan d'évacuation de masse.
4.4 Collecte et analyse d'informations
Il convient que l'organisme recueille des informations auprès de multiples sources d'informations
relatives à la planification, et qu'il tienne compte de l'importance de chaque aspect. Il convient que les
informations recueillies comprennent les données suivantes:
— les caractéristiques démographiques des personnes se trouvant dans une zone à risque;
— la proportion de personnes qui prendraient leur propre moyen de transport pour l'évacuation;
— les personnes qui utiliseraient les hébergements mis à disposition suite à l'évacuation.
Il convient que l'organisme évalue la qualité des informations recueillies, établisse leur fiabilité et leurs
conséquences potentielles à court et long terme, ainsi que leur influence sur la décision d'évacuation, en
utilisant les critères suivants:
— la fréquence à laquelle les informations sont mises à jour;
— la source des informations;
— les méthodes utilisées pour recueillir les informations;
— le niveau de détail des informations.
Il convient que l'organisme évalue la fiabilité et la crédibilité des informations conformément à la
procédure décrite dans l'ISO 22320.

ISO 22315:2014(F)

Il convient que l'organisme utilise des données existantes ou nouvelles issues de la recherche afin de
permettre d'appliquer à la planification d’une évacuation de masse une approche étayée par des preuves
scientifiques. Les sources de travaux de recherche peuvent comprendre les sources suivantes:
— recherche universitaire;
— enquêtes pré-évacuation et post-évacuation;
— guides opérationnels;
— rapports post-catastrophe;
— rapports post-exercice;
— publications et sites Internet de projets précédents, d'organismes de recherche, professionnels et
gouvernementaux.
De nouveaux travaux de recherche peuvent fournir des informations spécifiques à une situation donnée
permettant de développer des plans et décisions étayées par des preuves scientifiques.
Il convient que l'organisme et les organismes partenaires utilisent les simulations de scénarios
raisonnables et de scénarios catastrophes, afin d'en analyser les résultats et ainsi comprendre l’impact
du changement d’une hypothèse dans un scénario.
Il convient que l'organisme autorise l'accès direct aux modèles de simulation, afin de mettre à jour les
hypothèses et les informations et d'exécuter à nouveau les scénarios.
4.5 Planification de l'allocation des ressources opérationnelles
Il convient que l'organisme tienne compte, lors de la phase de préparation, de ce qui constitue une
réponse appropriée et de quelles ressources humaines et techniques il convient de disposer, tant dans
la zone d'évacuation que dans les zones qui pourraient recevoir des personnes évacuées.
Il convient que l'organisme identifie les ressources nécessaires pour faciliter l'évacuation. Par exemple:
— le personnel et ses compétences;
— la logistique et les capacités matérielles;
— le transport;
— la fourniture d’hébergements.
Il convient que l'organisme effectue une évaluation et une hiérarchisation rapides des besoins durant
la phase de réponse afin de déterminer quelles ressources sont nécessaires pour soutenir de façon
adéquate une évacuation de masse.
4.6 Processus de planification et de documentation
Il convient que l'organisme mette en place un processus officiel afin de définir des objectifs opérationnels
et de mesurer leur réalisation en réponse à un ordre d'évacuation.
Il convient que ce processus soit inclus dans les plans officiels et intégré aux plans de secours. Il convient
que les plans officiels incluent les éléments suivants:
— une stratégie documentée de diffusion d'un message d'alerte;
— des méthodes qui permettent de préparer les organismes qui gèrent les évacuations et de préparer
la population;
— des processus et procédures de planification intégrés dans le système de management de l'organisme
afin que les plans soient régulièrement revus et mis à jour.
