I have a bug-out kit packed for fires and the like. Interstate 15 is 5 miles away so it would have to be a pretty big toxic spill to bother me. The Union Pacific line is about 8 miles away.

Close enough for concern, but nothing to be overly worried about. Though one particularly nasty rail spill caused evacuation of residents from a six-county area.

An underground shelter with filtered air might be another possibility. I'm really begnning to pay attention to earth sheltered homes. And garages.
