Hood
County CodeRED Emergency Notification System
Seconds Count In An
Emergency!
Hood County has instituted the CodeRED Emergency Notification System -
an ultra high-speed telephone communication service for emergency
notifications. This system allows us to telephone all or targeted areas
of the County in case of an emergency situation that requires immediate
action.
The system is capable of dialing 50,000 phone numbers per hour. It then
delivers our recorded message to a live person or an answering machine,
making three attempts to connect to any number.

THIS SYSTEM WILL ONLY
BE USED FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES.
Examples of times when the CodeRED system could be utilized:
- Drinking water contamination
- Utility outage
- Evacuation notice & route
- Missing person
- Fires or Floods
- Bomb threat
- Hostage situation
- Chemical spill or Gas leak
- Comanche Peak Power Plant Emergency
and other emergency incidents where rapid and accurate notification is
essential for life safety. |
