Emergency managers are discussing how to handle the threat of a nuclear attack. Abc7 News Reporter Tiffany Wilson live on Yerba Buena Island with San Franciscos preparations. Tiffany. Reporter good morning, natasha and reggie. First of all, some reassuring news. North korea has not tested its intercontinental Ballistic Missiles with the weight of a Nuclear Warhead. Experts say the chances of San Francisco getting hit with a Nuclear Warhead are still low. However, if worst Case Scenario there is a nuclear attack, San Francisco officials would turn to the citys Emergency Response plan. It is a blueprint to manage all types of disasters and includes guidance for health, Law Enforcement, and firefighting. The good thing is that San Francisco plans and prepares for all types of emergencies. This is because we take an allhazards approach to our emergency planning. Whether its a Natural Disaster or something manmade, we believe that the same principles apply when it comes to emergency planning. The chronicle reports San Francisco has technology to measure radiation levels. Officials bought the devices to measure fallout if a terrorist detonated a dirty bomb.
