Emergency Management

Emergency Plan

The Township of South Glengarry has a Municipal Emergency Response Plan. The Emergency Plan is designed to ensure the coordination of Township resources to assist municipal, private and volunteer services in the event of an emergency situation.

Be Prepared

In an emergency, you will need basic supplies. You should be prepared to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours in the event of an emergency.

Prepare an Emergency Survival Kit that is easy to carry and readily accessible in an emergency. Items you may want to include in your kit include:

• Flashlight
• Radio or crank radio
• Spare batteries
• First aid kit
• Candles and matches/lighter
• Extra car keys and cash
• Important papers (identification for all household members, personal documents)
• Food and bottled water
• Clothing and footwear
• Blankets or sleeping bags
• Toilet paper and other personal supplies
• Medication
• Backpack/duffel bag
• Whistle
• Playing cards or games
