The Great Shakeout - Earthquake Drill

The Prince George’s County Office of Homeland Security/Office of Emergency Management (OHS/OEM) joins FEMA, the Ready Campaign PrepareAthon to promote Earthquake Preparedness this October and encourages employees to take part in The Great Shakeout Earthquake Drills on Thursday, October 19th at 10:19 a.m.   

OEM encourages all employees to participate in the Great ShakeOut by dropping, covering, and holding on for earthquake preparedness;
    • DROP to the ground (before the earthquake drops you!),
    • Take COVER by getting under a sturdy desk or table; and
    • HOLD ON to it until the shaking stops.
