Crews from Coast Guard Station Charleston, Aids to Navigation Team Charleston, and Station Georgetown evacuate assets and crewmembers Sept. 4, 2019, as part of preparation efforts for the arrival of Hurricane Dorian. The Coast Guard has strategically positioned its assets and members to be clear of the impact of the storm and will reconstitute those forces to begin response operations once it is safe to do so.
