The Great California ShakeOut is Fast Approaching, October 17th, at 10:17AM!
It's essential for everyone, whether at home or in the office, to know how to stay safe during an earthquake. Join the Great California ShakeOut to practice! Are you ready to ‘Drop, Cover, and Hold On’?
In California, earthquakes are not a question of if, but when. According to the latest U.S. Geological Survey, there's a 72% chance of a magnitude 6.7 or greater earthquake striking the San Francisco Bay Area by 2043. Preparedness is key!
The Government and Community Relations (GCR), Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management (DPEM) urge you to participate in the largest worldwide earthquake drill on October 17 at 10:17AM. Join us for one minute where we will Drop, Cover, and Hold On!
