Bob Lisson reported the facts involving a Bomb scare on the Surrey
campus and another incident involving a student which resulted in the
student being taken to the Hospital.

A proposed procedure for handling Bomb threats was discussed for the
benefit of the new members. The proposal, prepared by the Assistant
Bursar will be presented to College Council for final approval.

First Aid requirements for the college were discussed. The WCB has
offered to send a representative from the First Aid section to discuss
problems and to suggest solutions.

The exhaust fan for the Surrey Cafeteria is to be installed in the
ceiling and roof of the cafeteria and while the fan is on site the
installation, which requires 4 fairly large opening will be done as
soon as possible. (weather permitting).

A follow-up will be made to determine when an inspection will be made
of the Surrey Admissions area.

A new WCB pamphlet "What to do in case of fire in an office building"
was discussed. With the exception of the two story administration/
classroom building on the New Westminster Campus, evacuation of office
spaces does not appear to be a major problem of Douglas.

Weekly Safety checks have to date not pointed out any severe safety
problems. Those minor ones which have been noted will be rectified.

Next meeting will be scheduled for the last Thursday of March which .
will be 25 March 1976 at the New Westminster Campus.
