Preparedness Planning for a Nuclear Crisis
By Richard A. Fleetwood - May
2002
A classic FEMA document from the later years of the Cold War, now more needed
than ever since our government is warning citizens of possible dirty radiological
weapons, as well as continued threat of nuke plant attacks.
Preparedness Planning for a Nuclear Crisis
A Citizens Guide to Civil Defense and Self-Protection
FEMA document HS - 4 - March 1987
The LAST FEMA public document for the average American, on how to survive
NUCLEAR WAR. Very interesting, very deep, and well, very in-depth. Quite
surprised it is NOT yet online...but NOW it is. It NOW includes full bookmarks
for the entire 135 pages, so you can quickly and easily find info with from
the Adobe bookmark menu when viewing the document
http://www.survivalring.org/FEMA-HS-4.pdf
It is a BIG file, over 8 meg is size. You must have acrobat reader to view
and print.
The Appendix is now available as well at
http://www.survivalring.org/FEMA-HS-4-appendix.pdf
The appendix file is slightly over 15 pages, 1.5 meg in size, and has plans
for four expedient shelters and expedient bucket stove, grain grinder, air
ventilation fan, and lantern for lighting your shelter with safe household
items.
This digital version of the book may be the only place in the world you may
be able to find it, unless you work for FEMA, large library systems, or larger
emergency management agencies. I plead with you to download and print it
out, read it, and file it in a safe place. It covers nuclear preparedness,
fallout shelter (everything!!), evacuation, and much more...a good multi-threat
overview as well.
Please, forward the links to all your Emergency Management agencies as well.
The SurvivalRing website has had over 500 downloads of the prelim version
in the last few weeks, bringing the download bandwidth usage for the month
of April to over 8 gigabytes of transfer...twice the amount of last month.
Guess you guys are finding it very interesting, I would say...well, much
more to come from the same source.
The rest of the book is COMPLETE and OCRed, and includes ALL graphics as
the real live book has.
Alternatively, you can view the entire book in WEBPAGE html format, albeit
in smaller chunks, as my software won't allow converting huge pdf files into
one full set of pages. Therefore, here are the links to the four sections
that make up the ENTIRE book, as produced for BROWSER consumption.
Page 1 thru 46
Pages 47 thru 90
Pages 91 thru 124
The Appendix
Comments welcome on it. A welcome addition to the genre of nuclear
survival...from the leading proponent of survival in the world....FEMA.
As long as the terrorists of the world threaten their enemies with WMD, including
nukes, you NEED this info somewhere where you can be prepared, just in case.
Would YOU like to have this online version of this book for YOUR website? Email me with your request, website URL, affiliation, etc, and I will forward the download URL for you. I only ask that you keep the "FROM SURVIVALRING.ORG" information intact, and share it in good faith with others. Any attempt to profit from this work will be dealt with as infringement of my rights in regards to the DIGITAL presentation of a public domain work.
Scanned in and digitized by yours truly...
