After a disaster the Tallahassee Democrat and the Tallahassee - Leon County Office of Economic Vitality publishes a list of businesses that are open. Refer to their websites for information about open restaurants and stores.

Check all boxes that apply and fill out all the information.

If there are any safety issues (sparking/smoking power line is the most common), alert a shift leader so they can tell Alex.

Location information is particularly important--If you do not have an address you can also map to the closest cross street or intersection, add more detail in Area of Location and the notes section as necessary.

Take down the caller’s contact and location information, then alert a shift leader so they can deliver the information immediately to CDA. Once you have their information, strongly advise them to leave the location IMMEDIATELY. Tell them not to turn any lights on or off or do anything else on the way out that may cause a spark. Tell them to hang up and dial 911. Start logging the call into WebEOC and give the log number to the shift leader so they can deliver the information directly to CDA.
