Dear Friends,

The government may have to radically change FEMA, the agency that proved unprepared to help victims of Hurricane Katrina, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said Tuesday.

 

Hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma, which battered Gulf Coast states over an eight-week period, stretched the agency "beyond the breaking point," Chertoff said in a public review of his department's 2005 performance.

 

"We will retool FEMA, maybe even radically, to increase our ability to deal with catastrophic events," he said in a 35-minute speech at George Washington University.

 

Chertoff offered no specifics for changing the Federal Emergency Management Agency but said FEMA employees must be given authority to cut through bureaucracy to assist disaster victims quickly. His aides said changes will come early next year.

 

One can only hope an organization such as FEMA, as well as other safety and security governmental agencies, will be up to date for the New Year to come in order to assure our safety when we cannot assure it ourselves.

Safety Tip and bottom Line                       

 

Safety Preparedness Holiday Season’s last minute tips…

 

The holiday season ought to be a happy time - but too often, it brings tragedy.

 

Observances of Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year's come as winter weather is intensifying. Some families are taking chances with supplemental heating at the same time they are decking the halls with risky lights and other ornaments. More attention is being paid to batteries for new Christmas toys than for those in smoke detectors.

Please be careful this holiday season. Make safety your top priority. Take time during the hustle and bustle of decorating, buying gifts and planning holiday meals to ensure that you aren't taking chances.

 

If you're making a list, checking it twice, we urge you to ensure that you are nice to yourself and your family by taking sensible safety precautions.

Don't take chances with decorative lighting. Check to ensure that the wiring in your home can handle those hundreds of colored, flashing lights safely.

 

If you enjoy a live Christmas tree, don't let it dry out and become a fire waiting to happen. The same goes for those piles of gift wrapping discarded in haste.

 

If you don't have at least one smoke detector in your home, get one. If you have smoke detectors, be certain that they are operating properly and that you have ample supply of smoke escape hoods.

 

If you are using supplemental heating in your home, don't take chances - with fire or with carbon monoxide.

 

Last but not least: during the holidays, the occurrence of candle-related fires jumps by 140 per cent. Pay extra attention to fire safety during the festive season.

 

- Use sturdy candleholders with a glass shade around the candle.

 

- Keep candles away from flammable items.

 

- Keep candles away from high-traffic locations where they can easily be knocked over, especially areas accessible to kids.

 

Please, take just a few precautions during the next few weeks. Let's all enjoy happy - and safe - holidays.
