Question:

I just read your FAQ and it was very well done, great information.  I am wondering however, based on your reply that we should be prepared for 14 days worth of sheltering, what do we do if we are at work if a missile strikes?  Should our office be prepared for all the workers to shelter in place for 14 days with food and water?

Answer:

While is it unlikely that you would be required to shelter at work for the full 14 days (radiation decays rapidly), having an initial supply of foodstuffs and water would be a very good idea.  We encourage all citizens of the state to have a full 14 day capability at home.
