Storm Preparedness
What to Do Before, During & After a Severe Storm
When a storm is predicted PMLP, recommends that you are familiar with the following procedures from the MA Emergency Management Agency (MEMA):
Subscribe to CodeRED Emergency Alerts
PMLP customers can stay informed by subscribing to the free CodeRED Emergency Notification System, courtesy of the City of Peabody.
Go to the webform and fill in the appropriate information to be alerted by your local emergency response team, notified in the manner(s) you designate, in the event of emergency situations or critical community alerts. (Examples: evacuation notices, bio-terrorism alerts, boil water notices and missing child reports.)
Get Emergency Alerts From MEMA
PMLP customers can stay informed about warnings, hazards and other kinds of important bulletins by downloading, subscribing or tuning in to MEMA-recommended update sources. Every family should have multiple methods for receiving emergency alerts, including at least one with an audible alert to wake you in the middle of the night.
