This typically occurs in the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and efforts are guided by the Emergency Operations Plan (EOP), which is reviewed annually and updated every four years. Through outreach, the office encourages residents to become more resilient to ensure they are prepared for emergencies. We also manage the public alert and warning systems for Spotsylvania County, namely SpotsyAlert, to ensure residents are informed before, during, and after an emergency.
