The local Steering Committees for Natural Disaster Prevention, Control and Search and Rescue proactively assign forces to stand guard; leaders of communes, industrial parks, and export processing zones directly go to the grassroots to direct storm response; promote information about the storm's developments to the people. Nam Cuong commune and coastal localities need to urgently call on boats to anchor safely, instruct people to proactively tie and reinforce seafood cages. Irrigational companies proactively drain water on main rivers; arrange human resources and equipment to pump and drain water when flooding occurs.
