It took about 3 pages. You must cover bio hazard, chemical hazard, radiation hazard, electrical failure, tornado, earthquake, hurricane, broken glass, non-working toilets, shelter in place, etc.
There is a real limit to what people can grasp, and 3 pages is about it.
Then you make a list of names of who is supposed to be there so you can find out who's healthy, and who's not, when disaster hit. Very important to know what you've got to work with.
Yes, Northern Virginia gets hit with hurricanes every now and then.
Do you realize that FEMA is just a shell organization to coordinate other relief efforts? They are not a first responder. They don't have staff that is trained in rescue. They are a beauracracy. They are only capable of being as efficient as your local driver's license station. 10 people do the work of two. Ask yourself this...why is it that Florida can evacuate four times without a hitch and New Orleans can't get 500,000 people out of town with three to four days notice? You could almost walk to Houston from New Orleans in that amount of time. FEMA is a joke, but so is relying on the federal government for anything. If our government was reliable in the least, those levies would have been built properly in the first place.
