[nagdu] Hurricane Irine (or Irene)

Sat Aug 27 07:33:27 UTC 2011

We are in the Hurricane area of Long Island, the person who says this is off 
topic, when it comes to concerns of it's members is it not off topic.

We are not in the evacuation area of Long Island, we should talk to the 
evacuation policy people here in the city and long island, they have other 
areas for dogs, separate ones with the aspca I have been hearing, and I want 
them to make sure that people who are disabled should be able to keep there 
animals with them.

I have not heard anything about this, but will finding out sometime today 
about it, and if we need some advocacy work here in NY. We need to speak to 
those in hurricane states and find our what your emergency plans are so we 
can implement here in our emergency evacuations and shelters.

Also we are helping some of our NFB members, by staying with us during this 
time, since where they live is being evacuated.
