SECONDS COUNT IN AN EMERGENCY

Nassau County uses the CodeRED Emergency Notification System. It is an ultra high-speed telephone communication service for emergency notifications and the distribution of information considered to be important.





This system allows us to telephone all or targeted areas of the County in case of an emergency situation that requires immediate action, such as an evacuation, contaminated water, hazardous chemical spill, etc.  This system is capable of dialing the entire County within minutes.  It then delivers a pre-recorded message describing the situations to a live person or an answering machine in the affected area, possibly including instructions requiring immediate action on the part of the recipient.


If you reside or own property within Nassau County and would like to receive CodeRED emergency messages you may signup by clicking the below link.  IMPORTANT:  USE YOUR PHYSICAL NASSAU COUNTY ADDRESS.  DO NOT USE POST OFFICE OR OUT OF TOWN ADDRESSES.
