 What to do BEFORE-DURING-After an Earthquake
Six Ways to Plan Ahead.
FYI:::> http://www.fema.gov/hazard/earthquake/eq_before.shtm
1.Check for Hazards in the Home
-Fasten shelves securely to walls.
-Place large or heavy objects on lower shelves.
-Store breakable items such as bottled foods, glass, and china in low, closed cabinets with latches.
-Hang heavy items such as pictures and mirrors away from beds, couches, and anywhere people sit.
-Brace overhead light fixtures.
-Repair defective electrical wiring and leaky gas connections. These are potential fire risks.
-Secure a water heater by strapping it to the wall studs and bolting it to the floor.
-Repair any deep cracks in ceilings or foundations. Get expert advice if there are signs of structural defects.
-Store weed killers, pesticides, and flammable products securely in closed cabinets with latches and on bottom shelves.
2.Identify Safe Places Indoors and Outdoors
-Under sturdy furniture such as a heavy desk or table.
Against an inside wall.
-Away from where glass could shatter around windows, mirrors, pictures, or where heavy bookcases or other heavy furniture could fall over.
-In the open, away from buildings, trees, telephone and electrical lines, overpasses, or elevated expressways.
3.Educate Yourself and Family Members
-Contact your local emergency management office or American Red Cross chapter for more information on earthquakes. Also read the "How-To Series" for information on how to protect your property from earthquakes.
-Teach children how and when to call 9-1-1, police, or fire department and which radio station to tune to for emergency information.
-Teach all family members how and when to turn off gas, electricity, and water.
4.Have Disaster Supplies on Hand
-Flashlight and extra batteries.
-Portable battery-operated radio and extra batteries.
-First aid kit and manual.
-Emergency food and water.
-Nonelectric can opener.
-Essential medicines.
-Cash and credit cards.
-Sturdy shoes.
5.Develop an Emergency Communication Plan
-In case family members are separated from one another during an earthquake (a real possibility during the day when adults are at work and children are at school), develop a plan for reuniting after the disaster.
-Ask an out-of-state relative or friend to serve as the "family contact." After a disaster, it's often easier to call long distance.
-Make sure everyone in the family knows the name, address, and phone number of the contact person.
6.Help Your Community Get Ready
-Publish a special section in your local newspaper with emergency information on earthquakes. Localize the information by printing the phone numbers of local emergency services offices, the American Red Cross, and hospitals.
-Conduct a week-long series on locating hazards in the home.
-Work with local emergency services and American Red Cross officials to prepare special reports for people with mobility impairments on what to do during an earthquake.
-Provide tips on conducting earthquake drills in the home.
-Interview representatives of the gas, electric, and water companies about shutting off utilities.
-Work together in your community to apply your knowledge to building codes, retrofitting programs, hazard hunts, and neighborhood and family emergency plans.
