Current News and Information
Preparedness

There are over 450,000 residents in Pasco County, Florida.  
One third of those residents live along the 18 mile Gulf coast.

Of those that do have a hurricane evacuation plan, nearly
70% (140,000) will not have all the supplies and important
documents to sustain themselves for 3 days, or aid in their
own recovery post-disaster.

As discussed on our
 "Hazards" pages, hurricanes are just
one element that can create a disaster for Pasco residents.  
A significant amount of industrial shipping, both by rail and
truck pass through Pasco County each day.  

Additionally, Pasco County Florida also has houses in the
approach paths for Tampa International and Clearwater/St.
Petersburg airports, as well as the Space Shuttle program.

A comprehensive "all-hazards" preparedness plan is your
best survival tool for all of Pasco County's hazards. The
Office of Emergency Management is positioned to assist
Pasco County
residents and businesses in the
development of their all-hazard preparedness plans.

Though we wish we could prevent emergencies and
disasters from impacting our county, most of the
hazards
which will occur in Pasco are beyond our control.  Be
proactive, and
"Get a Plan!"
