Aerospace sites prepare for hurricanes as indicated in the hazard threat assessment worksheet. This includes several long-term preparedness elements including but not limited to:

• • Ensuring roof-mounted equipment are anchored and in good repair
  • Repairing or replacing weak or damaged windows, door hinges, and latches
  • Having generators or other means of emergency power available and testing the equipment periodically
  • Keeping supplies and equipment in stock (such as portable hoses, mops, shovels, etc.)

 

As a hurricane approaches, SCC and EHS will monitor the forecast and guidance from local authorities. Guidance that may be provided to Aerospace employees via AeroElert, PA announcement, and other methods could include but are not limited to:

• • Beginning to shut down equipment that could be damaged
  • Moving vehicles and mobile equipment to safe locations
  • Evacuating employees
