Description

When government officials become aware of an impending disaster, they may take steps to protect citizens before the incident occurs. Evacuation of the geographic area that may be affected is one option to ensure public safety. If implemented properly, evacuation can be an effective strategy for saving lives. Evacuations and decisions to evacuate, however, can also entail complex factors and elevated risks. Decisions to evacuate may require officials to balance potentially costly, hazardous, or unnecessary evacuations against the possibility of loss of life due to a delayed order to evacuate. This book discusses federal evacuation policy and analyses potential lessons learned from the evacuations of individuals in response to the Gulf Coast hurricanes of 2005 with a focus on potential lawmaking and oversight on evacuation policy.
