RETIREES
Ken Manning was hired at IPSC on July 30, 1984, and retired in January 2018. Prior to working at IPSC, he worked as a carpenter and at the mines in Eureka. He grew up in Mapleton, Utah, and graduated from Springville High School. Ken enjoyed teaching other operators the knowledge and insight he had gained over the years about how the plant operated. He had a great understanding of the plant and spent his last
seven or eight years as a Unit Operator. Ken always paid close attention to his equipment and was able to get things repaired that needed attention. He had a calm demeanor and could give help and advice in al-most every area of the plant. He was entertaining to work with and usually had a story to match any occa-sion. Ken was very dependable. He rarely used any sick leave and could be counted on to be at work.
Ken and Cindy have three daughters and ten grandchildren. If you can’t find him at home, he will probably be at Lake Powell with his family. They typically make the journey two or three times during the summer months. In the fall you can find him on Boulder Mountain, hunting deer and elk with his sons-in-law and his father-in-law. We've heard they have a five-star camp and would probably feed you if you drop by at dinner time. If you’re traveling through Capital Reef National Park you may see the "Manning train," which is the red Ford pulling the fifth wheel camp trailer with the Razr bringing up the rear. They enjoy hiking the trails and canyons of Capital Reef. We wish him well and hope they enjoy the their retirement years.
Rand Crafts was hired February 1984 and retired February 2018. His career here at IPSC spanned about 34 years. He worked in the fuels and water labs as a Lab Analyst from his hire date until 1990 when he came into the Environmental Group as an Environmental Technical Analyst. He worked as an Environmental Technical Analyst from 1990-2015 and became a Regulatory Analyst in 2015. He was involved in all of the major environmental areas including air, water, radiation,
waste, cyber security, and Department of Homeland Security. A lot of new environmental regulations oc-curred during his career. He did a lot of work obtaining permits for the various environmental regula-tions. He had the unique ability to read the regulations, understand them, and know how they applied to IPP. He had a photographic memory where he could not only remember where the regulation was found and what it said, but also on what side of the page it was found. Rand had the ability to get along with peo-ple from all departments and crafts and was well respected by all who knew him. He had the respect from the Environmental Group at LADWP and also the environmental regulators. He always made recommenda-tions and decisions that were in the best interest of the company. Rand was truly a great employee and will be greatly missed at IPSC. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors.

Preparing for an Evacuation
By: Lorie Cloward
I have recently spoke with several friends and vendors who went through the California fires and are now facing area flooding. Eventually the conversation always comes around to what they packed when told to evacuate. One friend mentioned that she grabbed her wedding dress, her entire drawer of under garments, but only one change of clothing, a pair of sneakers, and no socks. When faced with only minutes notification of an emergency evacuation, most people mentioned the inability to think coherently. Are you prepared to evacuate in an emergency? "1. Arrange your evacuation ahead of time Don't wait until the last minute to plan your evacuation. Identify where you can go in the event of an evacuation. Try to have more than one option: the home of
a friend or family member in another town, a hotel or a shelter. Keep the phone numbers and addresses of these locations handy.
Map out your primary routes and backup routes to your evacuation destinations in case roads are blocked or impassable. Try to have a physical map of the area available in case GPS satellite transmis-sions are down or your devices run out of power.
Pre-arrange a designated place to meet in case your family members are separated before or during the evacuation. Make the location specific, for example, "meet at the big clock in the middle of town square" not "meet at the town square". Ask an out-of-town friend or family member to act as a contact person for your family.
Put all evacuation plans in writing along with pertinent addresses and phone numbers and give them to each member of the family. Note that many home printer inks are NOT waterproof, so take appropriate precautions to ensure legibility.
Listen to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio or local radio or TV stations for evacuation instructions. If advised to evacuate, do so immediately.
"2. Plan what to take Many families choose to have a "go bag" ready with some of these critical items. Consider packing the fol-lowing for an evacuation. Prescriptions and other medicines
First aid kit Bottled water
Flashlight, battery-powered radio and extra batteries Clothing and bedding (sleeping bags, pillows)
Special equipment for infants or elderly or disabled family members "Comfort items," such as special toys for children
Computer hard drive and laptop
Cherished photographs Pet food and other items for pets (litter boxes, leashes)

"3. Create a home inventory Making a home inventory and having it handy will be useful if you need to apply for disaster aid. It will also: Help ensure that you have purchased enough insurance to replace your personal possessions.
Speed the insurance claims process, if necessary Substantiate any losses for income tax purposes.
"4. Gather important documents Keep the following important documents in a safe place that you can easily access and take with you in the event of an evacuation. And while for most of these you'll need an original, it's a good idea to make digital copies and keep them with you on a thumb drive, as well:
Prescriptions
Birth and marriage certificates Passports
Drivers license or personal identification Social Security cards Insurance policies — homeowners, auto, life and any others Recent tax returns
Employment information Wills and deeds
Stocks, bonds and other negotiable certificates Home inventory
"5. Take the 10-minute evacuation challenge To ensure that you and your family are fully prepared for a sudden evacuation, do a real-time test. Give yourself just 10 minutes to get your family and belongings into the car and on the road to safety. By planning ahead and practicing, you should be able to gather your family members and pets, along with the most im-portant items they will need, calmly and efficiently, with a minimum of stress and confusion."
