It is important to be familiar with “Be Ready, Be Set, Go” – a statewide evacuation system used to notify communities facing a threat, or potential threat, to lives and property. Oregonians can sign up for emergency alerts in their county to receive evacuation notifications.

 

Level 1 BE READY” for potential evacuation. Community members should be aware of the danger that exists in their area and monitor emergency services websites and local media outlets for information. This is the time for preparation and precautionary movement of persons with special needs, and in some cases, pets and livestock.
Level 2 BE SET” to evacuate. Oregonians should be ready to leave at a moment’s notice, as this level indicates there is significant danger to the area. The public should be prepared to voluntarily relocate to a shelter or with family/friends outside of the affected area. They may have time to gather necessary items but doing so is at their own risk.
Level 3 GO.” Leave immediately! Danger to the area is current or imminent. If a person chooses to ignore this advisement, emergency services may not be available to offer further assistance. People should not stop to gather any belongings or make efforts to protect their home or shelter.
  Depending on the situation, you may not receive a Level 1 or Level 2 evacuation notice before Level 3. Make the best decision for your safety. If you feel unsafe, don't wait to evacuate.

 

 

Es importante estar familiarizado con “Prepararse, Listos, Fuera” un sistema de evacuación en todo el estado que se utiliza para notificar a las comunidades que enfrentan una amenaza, o una amenaza potencial, a vidas y propiedades. Los habitantes de Oregón pueden inscribirse para recibir alertas de emergencia en su condado para recibir notificaciones de evacuación.

Nivel 1 de evacuación significa “Prepararse” (“Be Ready”) para una evacuación potencial. Los miembros de la comunidad deben estar conscientes del peligro que existe en su área y monitorear los sitios web de los servicios de emergencia y los medios de comunicación locales para obtener información. Este es el tiempo de preparar y mover preventivamente a personas con necesidades especiales y, en algunos casos, a ciertas mascotas y animales.
Nivel 2 de evacuación significa estar “Listos” (“Be Set”) para evacuar. Los residentes de Oregon deben estar listos para salir instantáneamente a partir de un aviso, ya que este nivel indica que hay un peligro considerable en el área. El público debe estar preparado para reubicarse voluntariamente en algún refugio o con familiares o amigos fuera del área afectada. Podrían tener tiempo de reunir objetos necesarios, pero harían esto bajo su propio riesgo.
Nivel 3 de evacuación significa “Fuera” (“GO”). ¡Salgan inmediatamente! El peligro en el área está sucediendo ahora o es inminente. Si una persona elige ignorar este aviso, podría ser que los servicios de emergencia no puedan ofrecerle más asistencia. La gente no debe detenerse a reunir sus pertenencias ni hacer ningún esfuerzo para proteger su casa o refugio.
  Dependiendo de la situación, es posible que no reciba un aviso de evacuación de Nivel 1 o Nivel 2 antes del Nivel 3. Tome la mejor decisión para su seguridad. Si no te sientes segura, no espere para evacuar.
