Brief
Be ready for inclement weather by keeping the Center's Emergency Information Hotline (888) 667-2020 and Emergency Information Web address http://status.fhcrc.org close at hand.
Staff should assume the Center is open unless the Emergency Information Hotline or Web site indicates otherwise. A message regarding status of any Center closure is recorded by 6 a.m. on the hotline and Web site.
The policy is for the Center is to remain open except under the most extreme weather conditions. However, even when closed, certain "essential service" areas may remain in operation. It is important for supervisors to reiterate these requirements to essential-service personnel.
