Emergency Information

In the event of an Evacuation:

FORT JACKSON

Pets are not allowed in Ft. Jackson barracks, and there is no kennel service available. Personnel will have to provide for their pets prior to reporting to Ft. Jackson.

If only a limited evacuation of personnel housing areas (e.g., Isle of Palms, James Island, etc.) is ordered or an evacuation is only recommended, personnel who live in these coastal areas may evacuate to local civilian shelters. Prior to evacuating, personnel must provide their supervisor and NPTU Administrative Office (843-794-5950) when COR III is set the location and phone number of their intended evacuation location.

Accountability. ***All hands are required to maintain 100% accountability with the command for themselves and their dependents.****

(1) Personnel who evacuate to Ft. Jackson will be required to muster with the NPTU Command Team at Ft. Jackson upon arrival. This team will have a muster list and will report status of personnel to NPTU Admin at 843-794-5950 to muster on the Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System database.
(2) Personnel who are required to stay onsite as support staff will be mustered by their Chain of Command and reported to NPTU Admin. These individuals must account for their dependents' evacuation plans.

(3) Personnel who are not required to evacuate to Ft. Jackson and evacuate to their own destination outside the affected area are required to ensure their chain of command has the address and phone number (updated cell phone information will suffice) of where they will be residing.
