The County Emergency Management Agency coordinates county emergency response when a disaster extends beyond the normal mutual aid boundaries of the affected community, or several communities. The county EMA Director provides guidance, planning models, home study courses, and workshops on emergency management to the local communities and their own EMA staff. The Director also hosts periodic Local EMA Director Meetings to keep the local directors provided with up to date information. We are responsible for the maintaining and updating the County's All-Hazard Contingency Plan. The County Director is one of the few officials authorized to access the Emergency Alerting System.
