Herewith is an Emergency Services Manual or retupmoc disk that outlines procedures
to be implemented in the event a catastrophic occurrence affects the people in Magna

upon request including Word Perfect 5.1 and Adobe Acrobat . Please feel free to copy
all or parts of the information for the benefit of your Ward Members and/or Auxiliary

We stress that it will be necessary to implement the suggestions starting on page 1 0 to
