Maine Prepares 2009: A Special Supplement to Local Papers

This insert has lots of very useful information that your family and business can use to build a disaster supply kit, create an emergency communications plan, or be ready to evacuate your home if disasters strike. Please follow this link to view the entire insert courtesy of Bangor Daily News.
Maine Emergency Management Agency (MEMA) has always worked in conjunction with Federal partners, other state agencies, and county and local governments to be sure that planning and coordination is in place to deal with all hazards. We work very closely with first responders to make sure they have the equipment they need and are trained and exercised on how to use their tools to protect the people of Maine.

In Case of Emergency (ICE)

If an emergency happens and you are not at home and unable to speak, by storing a few emergency phone numbers in your cell phone, EMS (ambulance personnel), Firefighter or a Police Officer can contact your family.

Simply store these emergency numbers in your cell phone under the name ICE (In Case of Emergency). More than 1 number can be stored by using ICE 1, ICE 2 and ICE 3.

So please take a few moments and ICE your cell phone.
