December 10, 2009 - Major stakeholders in the community of Laie, including the Laie Community Association and HRI, recently updated the Laie Emergency Planning brochure. Revisions were made to help improve evacuation speed and efficiency for tsunamis, including: an emphasis on immediate evacuation inland - for most residents, to the foothills of Laie; the instruction to park in lots and grass areas at BYU-H or the temple, and then walk inland from there; and a re-design of the evacuation site map indicators.
The emergency planning committee encourages residents to take the time to review this important information to be better prepared. To view the color brochure, please click here.
