Description

The purpose of this Re-entry Guide is to provide local authorities with a series of planning considerations that should be addressed as part of their Community Emergency Management Plan. These considerations should assist communities in developing their own re-entry plans to facilitate the safe return of residents to their homes once it is deemed safe to do so. It is not intended as a substitute for a community specific plan. Each community and every disaster will present its own specific set of circumstances and pre-written plans must be adjusted against the actual situation.
