Puerto Vallarta will practice emergency response for earthquakes and tsunamis

On September 19, Civil Protection and Firefighters in Puerto Vallarta will carry out annual drills to practice emergency response techniques during earthquakes and tsunamis.

The drills are carried out on this day throughout Mexico each year, marking the devastating earthquake in 1985, and then again on September 19, 2017.

The purpose of the drills in Puerto Vallarta is intended, among other things, to evacuate people that are concentrated in the areas of Olas Altas, centro, and other coastal areas of the city at the moment an earthquake or tsunami strikes.
