CONFERENCE SAFETY & SECURITY
AWWA works closely with the Hotel to provide a safe environment during the Water Quality Technology Conference , but your help is also needed . AWWA recommends that you read the following safety guidelines : 1 . Be aware of your surroundings . Always keep an eye on your personal belongings and never leave un-attended . If someone near you is acting suspiciously or if you feel uncomfortable , leave the area immediately and notify AWWA or Hotel staff . 2 . Know how to handle an emergency . Be aware of the nearest exits and know the emergency route at your hotel . Most are posted on the back of your guest room door , review upon arrival and become familiar on where to go . Agree on a place to meet up with a colleague in the event of an evacuation .
