Emergency Preparation

To all of our friends, clients, members, contacts on the east coast, we wish you the best in coping with Hurricane Sandy and its remnants.   While life safety remains our primary concern, protection of assets, from ANY threat, is also important.   This event is of a magnitude beyond expectation.  Response agencies are streteched to their limit.  Unfortunately,  we can't think that the "bad guys" will be too busy surviving to ignore opportunities to commit crimes.  Too late to run system tests...hopefully they're working as intended.  Remind staff remaining on site (cultural properties) that no one should be admitted without proper identification and authority.  This is a time when you are most vulnerable, and outside assistance or response may not be available.

Don't hesitate to call us with any questions or concerns where we may be of assistance.  We wish you the best in getting through this and pray for your safety.  Take care!
