Juneau International Airport – Emergency Live Drill Exercises Participation
Assumption of Risk, Release and Indemnification Agreement
On July 26, 2025, the Juneau International Airport (JNU) will be conducting a full-scale emergency exercise. For JNU to meet the criteria of FAA regulations, a full scale emergency plan exercise simulating an accident involving the largest scheduled air carrier aircraft will be conducted. JNU requests volunteers to participate as victims, victim’s family and friends (mourners), as well as set up and clean up.
As a volunteer, to participate in the JNU full-scale emergency exercise, I agree to the following:
I acknowledge there are inherent mental and physical risks in participating in this airport flight disaster simulation, including the risk of bodily injury and/or emotional distress from viewing a simulated disaster.
I acknowledge the importance of following directions given to me by the JNU personnel and emergency responders, and I agree to comply with all such directions. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks.
I understand that JNU does not assume responsibility for my safety or my personal property while I participate in this emergency exercise. I fully acknowledge that no reason exists as to why I should not participate in the live drill at the JNU such as any physical or mental condition, which might affect my abilities to safely participate in the exercise. I understand and agree that my participation is entirely voluntary and that I am responsible for ensuring that my participation in this exercise is within my physical and mental abilities.

By signing this agreement, I intend to release the CBJ from liability with respect to any damages or injuries caused by the unavoidable and inherent risks involved in participating in the JNU live emergency drill exercises. My signature below indicates that I have had sufficient opportunity to read this document, and that I have read it, that I understand it, and that I understand that it affects my legal rights, and the legal rights of any minor I am signing on behalf of, and I agree to be bound by these terms both for myself and as the legal guardian of the minor whose name appears below.
