WHAT is
Shelter-In-Place?
 
Shelter-In-Place is a plan for you to follow when certain kinds of emergencies happen in your community.  These emergencies might include hazardous materials spills or releases, or events that may affect the air quality in our area, making it unsafe to be outside. In these situations, it is safer to stay indoors until the wind blows the material away.
