You should leave the area or take shelter as state or local officials tell you. This the only sure way yourself form being exposed to radioactive materials that might be released in an accident at Millstone Power Station.

You may also be told to take KI (potassium iodine) to increase your level of thyroid protection if radioactive iodine is present.
