Each àËÅöÊÓƵ institution shall designate an individual as a representative to coordinate emergency preparedness and planning activities, share information with the University System Office, and coordinate with the àËÅöÊÓƵ’s emergency preparedness and planning activities. The institution shall provide the individual’s name, title, and contact information to the àËÅöÊÓƵ Chief of Police.

The àËÅöÊÓƵ Chief of Police shall periodically update the Board of Regents on emergency planning and preparedness activities.
