1 City of Highland Weekly Report August 9, 2018 Emergency Preparedness BUILD A KIT Administration H aving a well-stocked disaster supply kit on hand before a disaster strikes will make anyone s life easier. A disaster may cause everyday necessities like food and clean water to become scarce and hard to come by. You may need to survive on your own after an emergency. This means having your own food, water and other supplies in sufficient quantity to last for at least three days. A week is preferable. Local officials and relief workers will be on the scene after a disaster but they cannot reach everyone immediately. You could get help in hours or it might take days. A wellstocked disaster supply kit should have the following items: Water one gallon of water per person, per day Food Canned goods, MRE s, freeze dried. Also include at least one manual can opener Battery-powered or hand crank radio and a NOAA Weather, extra batteries Flashlights and extra batteries First aid kit Sanitation Items - Moist towelettes, toilet paper, feminine hygiene products, garbage bags and plastic ties, soap/detergent and bleach Basic tools wrench, pliers, screw drivers, shovel, duct tape, etc. Cash, change and credit cards A change of clothes, sturdy shoes, and rain protection for each person A sleeping bag and/or extra blankets Cups, plates, bowls, utensils, foil Plastic sheeting Copies of important documents (Driver s license, passport, birth certificate, etc.) Fire extinguisher Lighters and/or matches Extra medication These are just the basics. Everyone s kit will be different because everyone has different needs. If you have an infant, then extra bottles, formula, and diapers would be necessary. Don t forget about your pets. They ll need food and water as well. Remember that a disaster can strike at any time, but the time to get prepared is now.
