Evacuations occur when an area is deemed unsafe due to an impending natural disaster such as a hurricane tornado flood or wildfire. The process of evacuating an area involves alerting citizens of the approaching danger providing them with routes of escape and providing safe shelter for those who cannot evacuate. Depending on the size and scope of the disaster evacuations may be handled by local state or federal agencies.

The actual evacuation process can vary depending on the size of the area the type of event and the resources available. Generally the steps for an evacuation include:

  • Establishing an evacuation plan
  • Issuing an evacuation order and alerting citizens
  • Designating evacuation routes
  • Providing transportation assistance to those who need it
  • Providing information on available shelters
  • Monitoring the evacuation and helping those who may be stranded

The evacuation plan should include specific details such as the type of event the area to be evacuated evacuation routes the time of evacuation and any necessary resources. It is important to note that evacuation orders should only be given when absolutely necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

What would a girl evacuted in her suitcase take?

They could take a suitcase with warm clothes. They had to wear their coats. They could take a toy or stuffed animal. There simply was not a lot of room for a lot of stuff to go with the children. Identification of the child and his parent's information was pinned to the child. The child's suitcase had the same information. Some took photos of their family too.

No. A Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) is a sealed glass tube that is evacuted during manufacture to insure that a vacumn exists inside. So no fumes can be emitted by one. If some of the high voltage is arcing you may smell ozone, but a CRT is sealed and essentially a vacuum. On the other hand, if other components are failing they can certainly smell bad.
