In the wake of a national disaster, Television, Internet, Radio, Cell Phones, and Land Telephone Lines could be wholly inoperable across a wide region of the country. In spite of this, residences within The Resort at Forest Haven will have electrical power as well as communication systems, equipment, and plans in place to maintain vital communication between members of the resort and also with those in the surrounding community. It will also be imperative for residents to have the ability to communicate with resort residents who have not yet arrived at the community to coordinate their safe arrival.
For example, each residence will be equipped with Ham radios and CB radios. There will be a radio setup and an antenna for medium distance and long distance communication. Also, satellite phones may provide connectivity when other forms of communication are down. Lastly, in order to protect sensitive circuitry from damage due to electromagnetism or other dangers, emergency communication equipment will be stored in Faraday cages or Faraday rooms until needed.
