For Immediate Release November 5, 2008 Contact: Cheryl Burnett (310) 285-2454 CITY OF BEVERLY HILLS PREPARES FOR DISASTER Great ShakeOut is Largest Earthquake Drill in U.S. History Beverly Hills, CA – The City of Beverly Hills is ready to Drop, Cover and Hold On as it prepares for the largest earthquake drill in U.S. history. On November 13, 2008 at 10a.m., Beverly Hills will join the Earthquake Country Alliance (a public-private partnership of leading earthquake and emergency professionals, government officials, business and community leaders) and millions of Southern Californians to participate in the Great Southern California ShakeOut. All residents, businesses, schools and community organizations in Beverly Hills are encouraged to participate. The ShakeOut will portray what could happen in a 7.8 magnitude earthquake on the southern end of the San Andreas fault. City staff will be participating in the Drop, Cover and Hold On exercise at 10a.m., which will momentarily interrupt non-emergency City services. A variety of other disaster-related activities will occur throughout the day, as the City tests its response capabilities. While many employees will be involved in the exercise, normal City business will occur throughout the day. “The City is urging all members of the community to participate in the ShakeOut to understand what to do before, during and after an earthquake,” said Pamela Mottice-Muller, Director of Emergency Management for the City of Beverly Hills. “Should a major disaster occur, emergency service workers may be overwhelmed with response demands. People need to be prepared and self-sufficient to reduce chance of injuries and even save lives,” she continued. Register for the ShakeOut at www.ShakeOut.org. More information on preparing for a disaster can be found on the City’s website at www.beverlyhills.org/emergency. ### |
