The Oakmont Emergency Preparedness Task Force (OEPTF) held a simulated emergency drill on Saturday, Oct. 5, 2024 to exercise radio communications volunteers and MYN organized neighborhoods.\u00a0OEPTF provides radios and training to residents who volunteer for the communications team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Saturday drill simulated a 7.6 earthquake centered on the Hayward and Rodger\u2019s Creek faults affecting the whole Bay Area and the vicinity around Santa Rosa. The exercise included a scenario of large-scale structural failures, closed roads, intermittent power failures, loss of 911 service, structure fires, spot fires, broken water mains, gas leaks, injuries and associated medical problems, plus spotty and overloaded cell service. Neighborhood radio operators wearing yellow vests and carrying walkie talkies met in their zone neighborhoods to assess the need for assistance, along with the help of neighbors who participated in the simulated emergency drill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
