County Emergency Management Protocols

  1. Never Assume.
  2. All Disasters are Personal.
  3. Expect the Worst; It has already happened - you just haven't discovered it yet.
  4. Bad Things never happen when you expect them.
  5. Never concentrate on a specific disaster; a different one will sneak up and bite you.
  6. A Good Emergency Manager is a little paraniod and a little pessimistic.
  7. Things are never as easy as you think they are going to be.
