An evacuation alert, or evacuation alarm, was used to signal a mandatory evacuation of a certain deck, ship, planet, or starbase. It was normally used during a catastrophic event such as a hull breach or a loss of antimatter containment. This was a higher alert state than battle stations or red alert.
