Steps taken to prepare (if possible)
Hurricanes: 1. All fuel sites must have emergency power sources to provide fuel.
2. All maintenance facilities should have emergency power to provide 24/7 support for the duration of the event be it 1 day to 60 days.
3. Vehicles and equipment must be dispersed to areas outside the flood zones.
4. Preparations need to be made to shelter and feed personnel for the duration of the event.
5. Preparations need to be made and policies established for essential personnel to evacuate their families to safe areas prior to the event so that they know their families are safe to concentrate 100% of their effort on the mitigation recovery efforts.
6. Preparations need to be made and policies establishe for essential personnel who are sole parents to provide shelter and support for this small group of personnel during and after the event.
7. All bulk fuel facilities need to be maintained at 80% fill from June 1 - November 30.
8. All fuel tanks for vehicles/equipment/emergency power/fuel stations need to be topped off when the hurricane crosses the 1000 mile line.
9. All water production/waste water facilities/well fields/ pumping stations need emergency power to maintain system pressures to prevent contamination of the system lines which will significantly delay recovery.
10. In a mass evacuation scenario preparations need to be made to conduct re-fuel on the move operations to support the evacuation efforts of coastal and surge imapct areas.
