STORM PREPAREDNESS PLAN FOR THE CONSTRUCTION SITE<br />
A Storm Preparedness Plan is needed in each and every construction project to secure<br />
items and maintain a safe environment. The Storm Preparedness Plan should be carefully<br />
developed several months ahead of the storm season. Builders and contractors lose millions<br />
of dollars annually due to the lack of a Storm Preparedness Plan, which is easy to prepare and<br />
can be executed within a couple of hours with minimal investment.<br />
STORM PREPAREDNESS CHECKLIST<br />
This part of the storm preparedness plan must be executed well before the beginning of the<br />
storm season.<br />
1. Clean job site every day.<br />
2. Take photos -- record project status before the storms hit.<br />
3. Instruct your crew leaders not to start any new jobs and complete jobs in progress.<br />
4. Perform a complete full maintenance of mechanical and electrical equipment.<br />
5. Check and maintain proper supply of sandbags and other water detention items that must be needed during an emergency.<br />
6. Secure trailers and staging areas at least one month ahead of the storm season.<br />
7. Store inside buildings small items that can be carried away by storm winds or rapid flowing waters.<br />
8. Include in your plan your subcontractors' materials, personnel and property.<br />
9. Make sure electronics devices have required battery power supply.<br />
10. Check and perform a tune-up for your emergency power generator system.<br />
11. Check batteries of all emergency lights and emergency exit signals.<br />
12. Check and replenish your office with flashlights, emergency kits, and other safety related material.<br />
13. Stock with sufficient drinking water to supply at least five days without potable drinking water from local municipality.<br />
