Earthquake Checklist After The Shaking Stops

Check Your Home

If you are in bed and wearing your night clothes, pull your 72 second kit (jeans, shirt, sweatshirt, socks, boots or shoes,  leather gloves, flashlight or headlamp) out from under the bed and get dressed quickly  

On your way out of the house, notice damage severity to your home    
 Locate family members or roommates and pets as soon as possible, go outside to your meeting area hopefully aftershocks are over 
 Check on:
Water heater     
 Broken pipes    
 Electrical panel  
 Check the foundation of your home for cracks, inspect the chimney  
 Take photos of damage

Place the Emergency Ribbon that applies to your situation out for your Block captain to report     

If you are a Block Captain, and your family, home and pets are secure. Report your Block's Emergency Ribbon status.  Report that information to the Precinct Comms.   Get your pack, helmet, vest and gloves.   Report to your Precinct (Neighborhood) Staging area for dispatch or to volunteer to be on one of your neighborhood emergency teams
