Preparing for hurricane season can be overwhelming, but must be done. This Higher Ed Hurricane Preparedness Checklist was designed specifically for Emergency Managers and Continuity Planners in higher education located in hurricane-prone zones along the coasts of the United States.
This checklist was created by Emergency Managers at East Carolina University (ECU) and shared with Kuali. ECU uses this list to prepare for hurricane season each year, distributing it to staff on June 1st, the beginning of hurricane season. In 2016, ECU sent the list twice; once at the beginning of hurricane season and again to prepare for Hurricane Matthew.
With the permission of ECU, Kuali customized and templatized their checklist. We created this version specifically for Emergency Managers and Continuity Planners in higher education located in hurricane-prone zones along the coasts of the United States.
We hope that this document helps you and your institution to be more prepared for the upcoming hurricane season.
The Emergency Manager(EM) will review and update the Hurricane &Emergency Preparedness Checklist in mid- to late-May in order to disseminate the document to the Hazardous Weather Response Team (HWRT) on or around June 1. Note: The Hazardous Weather Response Team is a group of faculty and staff at the University who have a responsibility to prepare for, respond to, or recover from a hazardous weather incident or emergency.
