How do I communicate for information?

Communication

Immediately following an earthquake, turn on a radio or television to get official emergency information. Remember to restrict your telephone calls to emergency aid requests only.

It is a good idea to have a friend who lives out-of-state, who will act as a contact point for family information and contact, since out-of-state calls will go through more easily than local calls.

If you have a cellphone, use this instead of normal telephone lines to make calls as these usually go through other channels that will be open.
