The Family Emergency Plan Cont. from a couple weeks ago.

Utah is exposed to a variety of natural disasters such as floods, wild-land fires, severe weather, and earthquakes. The state also deals with hazardous materials. Before disaster strikes, make sure that your family, business, school, and community have emergency plans. Preparing the people of Utah for whatever disasters may arise is one of the main goals of the Department of Public Safety, Division of Homeland Security and Be Ready Utah.

You are encouraged to take four major steps toward preparedness: Make a Plan, Get a Kit, Be Informed, and Get Involved. Because disasters can happen at any time; at home, at work, at school, or elsewhere, your family emergency plan needs to describe how and where your family will reunite should members be separated. It should also include what you will do if water, natural gas, electricity, or telephone services are not available.

For more information that will help you to prepare for any emergency or disaster, visit www.bereadyutah.gov.
