SHELTER IN PLACE STEPS To follow during a chemical emergency in Deer Park 1.When you hear the OUTSIDE WARNING SYSTEM, go inside the nearest home or building and shut the doors and windows. 2.Tune to radio station AM 530 for emergency instructions. 3.Keep the phone lines open for official use. (Deer Park’s computerized telephone notification system will notify citizens in affected areas.)

Additional tips for Sheltering in Place Stay inside unless you are told you can safely leave. Turn off heating, cooling or ventilation systems. Close the fireplace damper. If your eyes, nose or throat become irritated, protect your breathing by covering your mouth with a damp cloth, taking frequent shallow breaths and staying calm. If you are in a vehicle, close windows and turn off air systems.

If Evacuation is Ordered by Authorities: Stay calm Gather what you and your family will need. Take such essential items as medicine, baby supplies, driver’s license, and checkbook. Don’t forget your pets. Keep car windows and air vents closed. Police officers along route will direct you.

If an emergency occurs during school hours, students will be cared for and sheltered in the schools until the emergency is over.
