[ETS/PARC List] Fwd: As Hurricane Sandy Approaches, FEMA Urges Residents to Follow Directions of Local Officials

Sun Oct 28 18:53:51 EDT 2012

Figured I would forward this along:
FEMA AND the Dept. Of Defense are setting up incident support bases. One in
Lakehurst NJ.
Thought it was interesting the DOD was involved. Would have like to see
logistically what that operation is like.
73 KC2WDZ.

WASHINGTON - At the direction of President Obama, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) is coordinating the federal government's
assistance and preparations to support states affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Today, the President joined an operations briefing at the National Response
Coordination Center at FEMA Headquarters in Washington D.C. During the
briefing the President received an update on preparedness activities
underway from Administrator Craig Fugate and FEMA Regional Administrators,
and an update on the storm from National Hurricane Center Director Dr. Rick
Knabb. The President continues to direct Administrator Fugate to ensure
that federal partners continue to bring all available resources to bear to
support state and local responders in potentially affected areas along the
East Coast as they prepare for severe weather. FEMA has already deployed
teams and has pre-staged resources to potentially affected states and areas
ahead of the storm and FEMA continues to urge residents in potentially
affected areas to be prepared.****

"As conditions worsen along the Mid-Atlantic and other parts of the East
Coast, residents need to listen to the direction of local officials," urged
Fugate. "This is a large storm and the potential impacts from wind, coastal
flooding, inland flooding, rain and snow will affect many states.  If
you're on the coast, it's time to act and follow evacuation orders. If
you're inland, now is the time to make final preparations.  Be ready for
power outages and stock up on emergency supplies of food, water,
medications, and other supplies."****

Today, the President declared an emergency for the State of Maryland.  The
President's action authorizes FEMA to coordinate all disaster relief
efforts to provide assistance for required emergency measures to save lives
and to protect property and public health and safety in the City of
Baltimore and all counties in the State of Maryland.

FEMA and its federal partners remain in close coordination with states and
tribal governments and continue to coordinate resources to provide support
as needed. FEMA Incident Management Assistance Teams and liaison officers
have deployed to potentially affected states along the East Coast to
support preparedness activities and ensure there are no unmet needs.
Mobile Emergency Response Support (MERS) personnel and teams are in place
or are en route to Delaware, the District of Columbia, New York, New
Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania to support the states with secure
and non-secure voice, video, and information services, operations, and
logistics support to state response operations, and with any potential
requests for assistance.****

According to the NOAA National Weather Service 2 p.m. advisory, hurricane
force winds are expected along portions of the coast between Chincoteague,
Va. And Chatham, Mass.  Tropical Storm force winds are expected north of
Chatham to Merrimack River, Mass., the lower Chesapeake Bay and south of
Chincoteague to Duck, North Carolina.  Hurricane Sandy is expected to
produce significant precipitation over widespread areas causing inland
flooding, coastal storm surge, snow, and possible power outages. ****

Individuals in the region should continue to monitor NOAA Weather Radio and
their local news for updates and directions provided by their local
officials.  State and local officials make determinations and announcements
about evacuations. We urge the public to listen to the instructions of
officials, and if told to evacuate - evacuate.****

To support potential pre- and post storm evacuations, in coordination
with *U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)* through Emergency Support
Function 8, FEMA has the capability to activate ambulance contracts to
support state requirements to evacuate patients if needed and requested.****

In anticipation of the potential impact from the storm, the *American Red
Cross* mobilized hundreds of disaster workers, readying shelters and
coordinating efforts with community partners in potentially affected states
and the Department of Health and Human Services has two 50-person disaster
medical assistance teams pre-staged in the mid-Atlantic, prepared to deploy
quickly along the East Coast if needed. The *U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers* deployed
temporary emergency power teams along the East Coast.  Power teams consist
of planning and response teams and resource support staff to assist with
critical infrastructure.

The *Department of Energy* (DOE) is working closely with FEMA, and in
support of state and local officials who are responsible for working with
utilities as they prepare for storms, deployed emergency response personnel
to FEMA Regional Response Coordination Centers (RRCC) in Massachusetts, New
York, and Pennsylvania, and additional personnel are on standby to assist.
DOE is working with states and local partners as the electric industry
begins the process of pre-mobilizing storm and field personnel to assist in
power restoration efforts.

*U.S. Northern Command* deployed Regional Defense Coordinating Officers
(DCO), and portions of the Defense Coordinating Element (DCE), in advance
of the storm, to validate, plan and coordinate potential *Department of
Defense* (DOD) support of FEMA's response operations and to facilitate DOD
support of life-saving and response operations.  FEMA and DOD are
establishing Incident Support Bases in Westover, Mass. and Lakehurst, New
Jersey to position supplies including water, meals, blankets and other
resources closer to potentially impacted areas, should they be needed.

The *Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)* is monitoring the storm and
will take steps to prepare and protect FAA facilities and equipment that
are in the projected path of the storm, including control towers, radars
and navigational aids. The FAA's top operational priority is to quickly
re-establish air traffic service to support disaster relief efforts. The
FAA Air Traffic System Command Center will maintain constant communications
with the airlines, the military, business aviation and airports in the
storm's path. They will advise the FAA about their flight schedules and
plans to evacuate aircraft from affected areas and the FAA will share
information about the status of the air traffic control system and
availability of air routes.****

*Preparedness Actions*

Take Action. Time is limited to prepare your family, home or business to
lessen the impact of severe weather.  Coastal and inland residents should
ensure that their families have an emergency plan and emergency kits in
their homes and cars.  Some of the items in a basic emergency kit include:
one gallon of water per person per day, for drinking and sanitation; at
least a three-day supply of non-perishable food; battery-powered radio and
a NOAA Weather Radio; flashlight and extra batteries; and First Aid kit. ***
*

Those in areas where the storm is expected to produce snow should also have
supplies in their emergency kits such as rock salt or environmentally safe
products to melt ice on walkways, snow shovels, adequate clothing and
blankets to keep warm and heating fuel like dry, seasoned wood for the
fireplace or wood-burning stove. Both hurricanes and winter storms often
cause power outages, take steps now to ensure you can sustain yourself for
at least 72 hours if needed.  ****
