==  Deployment Protocols at Fire Stations ==
A catastrophic earthquake will shut down communications systems such as cell phones and landlines. Therefore, BEECN volunteers must expect to self deploy without a direct request from PBEM or other government authority. Volunteers should self-deploy and follow their Response Framework if, and only if, the following conditions are met:
 
# A major earthquake has occurred in the Portland area.
# The volunteer and their family are not in immediate danger, and are not injured.
# Communication systems (such as land lines) are inoperative.
