Homeland Security Advisory System
All Americans Should:
- Establish a family disaster plan;
- Assemble a disaster supply kit; and
- Understand your risks;
Government agencies should consider the following general measures in addition to the Protective Measures that they will develop and implement:
- Increasing surveillance of critical locations;
- Coordinating emergency plans as appropriate with nearby jurisdictions;
- Assessing whether the precise characteristics of the threat require the further refinement of preplanned Protective Measures; and
- Implementing, as appropriate, contingency and emergency response plans.
