Safety Telecommunicators Week
The
final 911 Dispatch helpful hint comes from
telecommunicator Shannon Harris.
|
Shannon Harris |
“No Power, no
problem, contact your power company directly.
"However, if you see downed lines do not
approach them and contact 911 immediately.
"Low hanging lines and lines with heavy debris,
such as tree limbs, hanging on them should be
reported to 911 as soon as possible. If there is
tree debris in a roadway that is hazardous to
travelers, that should be reported to 911.
"If it is not an emergency situation, you can
call a non-emergency number to report the issue.
During major storm events, the local EMA office
may open their Emergency Communications Center
to assist Logan Dispatch with non-emergency
issues while 911 resources are tied up. So, do
not worry about calling us, we are always here
to assist you. |
