Seconds
count in an emergency! Archuleta
County and the Town of Pagosa Springs
have instituted the Code RED Emergency
Notification System – a high-speed
telephone communication service
for emergency notifications. This
system allows emergency management
personnel to telephone all or targeted
areas of the county to notify residents
of an emergency situation that requires
immediate action. Emergency management
personnel will record a message
with specific instructions for an
event. The system then delivers
the message to a live person or
an answering machine, making at
least three attempts to connect
to any given number. The system
is capable of dialing 50,000 phone
numbers per hour.
Uses of the system include flash
floods, fires, missing children,
water contamination, evacuation
notices, utility outages, chemical
spills and other emergency where
rapid and accurate notification
is essential for life safety. The
system may also be used to notify
residents in the immediate area
of prescribed fires.
You
may register your cell phone, unlisted
number, voice of IP phone or business
phone by clicking here.
Listed numbers, those found in the
phone book, are automatically added
to the system. If you are unsure,
please register. If you have any
questions please contact the Archuleta
County Office of Emergency Management
at (970) 731-4799.
