Emergency Do's and Don'ts
		Do stay calm. The most important thing to remember in the event of a nuclear emergency is to remain calm. Don’t panic; you do not want to be hurt acting in haste. Tune to the Emergency Alert System radio station (KTXY 106.9 FM) and wait for instructions.
		Do not use your telephone unless absolutely necessary. Telephone lines must be kept open for emergencies. If you are asked to remain indoors, stay there until official notice is given that it’s safe to go outside.
		Do use designated evacuation routes. If advised to evacuate, use the designated evacuation routes. Maintain safe and normal traffic flow, follow instructions given by traffic control officers and stay in your car. If you have problems with your automobile, park off the roadway, raise the hood to signal officers, and then remain in the car. Once you have left the area, don’t attempt to go back until authorities announce it is safe to return.
		Do not act on rumor. Rely on the Emergency Alert System radio station (KTXY 106.9 FM) for accurate information. If a site emergency or general emergency is declared, the State Emergency Management Agency (SEMA) also will set up a “rumor control” telephone line in Jefferson City to answer your questions. This number, 573.634.4902, is to be used only for a site emergency or general emergency. For all other questions regarding the emergency response plan, call an emergency management contact in your area.
