RISK MITIGATION / HARDENING
Raised tunnel air intake
Flood gates outside B30
Flood doors on tunnel exhaust vents
Sealed doors in facilities throughout Center to protect mechanical rooms
All new facilities are rated to withstand 130mph winds
Past flood mitigation & hardening projects successfully prevented additional damage during Hurricane Harvey

Holidays? Flex Days?
What are schools doing?
Storm speed, size, and track?
Prep to ClosureEmployees in mandatory
evacuation zones
Different personal needs, timeframes
Riding it Out• Systematic plant shut down (~ 6 hours)
• Hard shut down (minimum 3 day recovery)
• 2 hour emergency shut down of MCC
• Ride-out
• Depends on strength of storm
• 5 man security team
• 50 man recovery squad
• Merrill Center (Katy) contingency plan
• Away team to North Austin
Recovery• Safety
• Status of Community services & infrastructure
• STAY AWAY UNTIL RECALLED

SAMPLE OF EMAIL TO EPR
******************************************NOT A REAL MESSAGE – FOR EXAMPLE ONLY******************************************
Please forward to the appropriate people in your organization:
JSC Center Operations has declared Hurricane preparation Level 3 (Advanced Center Preparation) in anticipation of Hurricane Pretense
The current forecast and projected path show JSC at risk from Hurricane Pretense. Expected impact to JSC is in approximately 48
hours.
Hurricane Pretense is currently a Category 1 Hurricane with winds clocked at around 85 mph. Storm surge may reach 4-6 feet.
Level 3 preparations require all loose articles to be tied down or moved inside.
If your organization needs assistance with this task call the Work Control Center at x32038.
(Please utilize your own resources to move articles, and only rely on Work Control if you cannot move something safely.)
Employees should cover computers in plastic, move items off the floor and raise the blinds in their office.
Refer to the FMOD SOP for Hurricane Preparation for a full listing of Level 3 tasks.
If you have any questions regarding the SOP or related tasks, you can call the Communication Unit leader Ken Chevalier at x33177.
Configure all equipment and systems to minimize adverse effects from a loss of power, as cooling and power may intentionally or
inadvertently be shut down.
Remember storms are volatile and conditions may change rapidly. JSC management will continue to monitor the storm and send status
updates as necessary.
Weather forecasts and the latest advisory information are contained in a separate email you should receive from the Spaceflight
Meteorology Group via the JENS (from [email protected]) and posted on jscsos.com.

ATMs
grocery stores
schools
If you evacuate, don’t expect a quick returnCommunities may be closed to return
Debris and damage may make block routes

Secure your home – take inventory
Take important papers with you:Insurance policies…DL (proof of residency)….birth certificate…marriage certificate…passport…SS Card…wills….deeds…stocks/bonds…photos…love letters…lotto tickets
Plan a route…and an alternate route
Have a POC in the safe zone
Pack an emergency kit for your carFoodWaterBlankets Medications
Don’t forget pets and their needs
Don’t forget kids and their needs
Plan for special needs (register with 211 if you need help)
