  • Review your BEP (located on EP website)
  • Notify others of incident.
  • Review internal procedures; be ready to implement.
  • Plan next steps if incident impacts my area:

    • Where will I shelter if needed?

Specific actions based on your location:

Get Set...stay alert; be prepared to implement your plan.
