Quake Training: This morning (Oct. 21) our officers, dispatchers, and partners at Novato Fire Protection District participated in the Great ShakeOut Earthquake Drills preparedness exercise, in which we practiced how to evaluate community safety after an earthquake. Officers and firefighters assessed important buildings, bridges, and roadways for hazards. After an earthquake, if public safety hazards are found, public safety commanders (Police and Fire services) coordinate responses to prevent further harm, preserve life, and protect property.
Thank you to the officers, dispatchers, and firefighters who participated in this safety exercise today. We encourage our community members to help us improve safety before, during, and after an earthquake by learning about earthquake preparedness at: www.ready.gov/earthquakes.
