Will my local authorities notify me if there is danger after an earthquake?

They will try: They will try. But don’t count on that. Develop emergency and evacuation plans for your own family and business just in case. Also develop an emergency communication plan in case family members are separated.

Earthquake: That information may not be immediately available because it often takes 72 hours or more emergency personnel to become fully operational in this type of disaster.
