Correct.
Whether the original film elements be protection dupes, the original camera negative or 35mm color separations on B&W stock, it is important that they get stored at geographically separate locations.
Major Hollywood studios at the forefront of film preservation have 3 storage facilities in different parts of country for original elements.
