Fairfield County Emergency Warning Siren Policy

Emergency Warning sirens have been installed to alert the citizens of Fairfield County who may be outdoors during the time a Tornado Warning is issued by the National Weather Service for Fairfield County or any other emergency deemed necessary. The sirens are not intended to alert people indoors during a warning. It is highly recommended that each residence, business, school and church purchase weather alert radios that are automatically activated during severe weather occurrences.

Emergency Operations Center Updates

The EMA office (now on level 1 in the Job and Family Services building) is undergoing construction updates. Thanks to a special projects grant from the Ohio Emergency Management Agency, we are able to create an established and permanent Emergency Operations Center as well as offices to meet the EMA's staffing needs.
