Hazard Preparedness

Create an Earthquake Preparedness Plan

Prepare your household for an earthquake by creating a specific plan. Identify safe spots in each room, establish meeting places (near and far), outline communication strategies, and share the plan with all members.

  • Identify safe spots in each room (under sturdy tables/desks, against interior walls away from windows/heavy objects).
  • Determine primary and secondary exit routes from your home.
  • Establish safe meeting places: one near home, one outside the neighborhood.

Emergency Flotation Devices

Improve water safety by ensuring personal flotation devices (PFDs) like life jackets are available and used correctly, especially when boating or swimming. Keep throwable flotation aids accessible on beaches. Teach children safe usage.

  • Wear a properly fitting, Coast Guard-approved life jacket (PFD) when boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, or in potentially hazardous water conditions.
  • Ensure children wear appropriate PFDs near any water.
  • Have throwable flotation devices (e.g., ring buoy, flotation cushion) readily accessible on boats and piers.

Create a Flood Emergency Plan

Prepare your household for potential flooding by creating a specific emergency plan. Identify your flood risk, establish evacuation routes to higher ground, create a communication plan, and assemble necessary supplies.

  • Determine your specific flood risk (check flood maps, know local flood history).
  • Identify safe evacuation routes to higher ground.
  • Establish a family communication plan (including out-of-area contact).
