Other notes:
Bug In Plan
Bugging in will require you to think about your home differently; the first thing you need to do is determined the threat level.
Level 1 - No danger - utilities are out - people are getting along
OPSEC is low - neighbors working together.
Level 2 - Some danger - utilities are out - people are getting very worried.
OPSEC is medium, should try to ban with neighbors to block off your street.
Level 3 - Dangerous - utilities are out - people are desperate and looking for supplies.
OPSEC is high - You should bug out or hide in place - make home look as if no one is there and be ready to defend your family and supplies. Safe room or bunker will add to your protection.
Kits
A survival kit is a package of basic tools and supplies prepared in advance as an aid to survival in an emergency.
Kits come in a variety of sizes:
● Survival kit: small, can be carried with you.
● Backpack (BOB), limited only by the weight you can carry.
● Vehicle Kit: survival /auto repair kit.
● Location kit: large, used at home or bug-out-location.
To make your kits, start by building you basic survival kit. Then start on your BOB and so on. Create kits that you like by looking at each item and deciding on the one that will work best for you. Increase the amount of supplies for larger kits.

Notes:
Education Plan
This is the most important part of your plan, it is the only part that you can be sure to have with you at all times.
You need to learn how all of the different types of disasters may affect you and find ways to protect yourself from them. After you have done that, the basic rules of survival are all the same.
3 minutes without air:
If you are able to get oxygen, you are good to go; if not, you have around three minutes to find some.
3 hours without shelter:
This depends on the weather, but I can assure you shelter will be your next priority if you are out in any kind of precipitation or extreme heat or cold.
3 days without water:
Try to go without water for a day and you will know why this rule is so important.
3 weeks without food:
Same for food, you are going to need some.
The time to start learning how to be self-reliant is now!
