Which element would NOT be included in an emergency transportation plan?

An emergency transportation plan must encompass various critical aspects to ensure safety and efficiency during an evacuation. The inclusion of the route to take once outside, a backup plan for evacuation, and the specifications of the vehicles used for transport are all essential components that contribute to a well-structured plan.

The element concerning when you and others need to leave outlines a specific time or conditions under which an evacuation should occur. However, an emergency transportation plan generally focuses more on the logistics of how to evacuate rather than the precise timing of the evacuation. The timing is often determined by the situation at hand (such as the nature of the emergency) rather than fixed schedules that can be universally applied. Therefore, while it is crucial to know when to leave, clarity on the actual processes of transport and routes may take precedence, leading to the determination that the timing element may not typically be included in the core framework of an emergency transportation plan.
