Also keep in mind that the airport was built in 1994, well before DHS, TSA, 9/11 and the security theatre we have today.
I flew into it shortly after it was born.

The issue is when it comes to emergency/contingency planning which existed long before 9/11.

In planning this you say what happens if there is a power outage, a tornado hits, a snow storm hits, a wind storm hits and what could happen.

In planning many other construction projects like tunnels in case a fire happens in the tunnel they have a crew stationed there and they have a separate tunnel people can walk through to exit.
