Are You PREPARED?

 

Unlike other natural disasters, earthquakes strike without warning. We want you to be as safe as possible by knowing how to respond as soon as you feel the earth shake. Following these 3 simple steps might save your life!

 

DURING AN EARTHQUAKE-

 

 

 

If you are inside:

• STAY INDOORS AND STAY CALM!

• Duck under a table or desk, and hold on to it, or protect your head with your arms.

• Stay away from glass, windows, shelves, and any heavy object that may move.

• Be aware of falling objects and keep your eyes open.

 

If you are outside:

• MOVE to an open area and STAY CALM!

• Stay away from trees, powerlines, and other structures that may fall.
