When a violent storm hits a community

Article Abstract:

Sandusky, OH, was hit by a tornado in Jul 1992. The storm left an overwhelming amount of damage in the form of broken trees, shattered roofs and knocked-down power lines. Since this was the first time the community experienced such situation, the residents did things in the wrong way. According to sanitary engineer Jack Myers maintaining communication with the residents is the most vital thing in cleanup operations after a disaster. He added that the cleanup plan should include designated collection areas for debris, identification of workers and the proper handling of broken trees.
