The drill began with an earthquake alarm prompting everyone to “duck, cover, and hold.” After the simulated tremor, participants evacuated to designated assembly areas, where a headcount was conducted. Members of the incident command team inspected the vacated buildings for possible injured individuals. The drill concluded with a recap of earthquake safety protocols.
