Boing Boing Staging

Summer intern's preparedness project beats DHS's ready.gov

Michael sez, “I work at the Federation of American Scientists as their Director of Biology Policy. This summer, my intern took on a monumental project: Build a website that provides better public preparedness information than the Department of Homeland Security’s ready.gov site. She was able to create a better public preparedness website than the Department of Homeland Security in two months.”

PROTECT YOUR FACILITIES

* Attach equipment and cabinets to walls or other stable equipment
* Place heavy or breakable objects on low shelves
* Move workstations away from large windows
* Elevate equipment off the floor to avoid electrical hazards in the event of flooding
* Install fire extinguishers and smoke detectors in appropriate places
* Consider if you could benefit from automatic fire sprinklers, alarm systems, closed circuit TV, access control, security guards, or other security systems
* Secure all the ways in which people, products, supplies and other things enter and leave your facility
