CodeRED®
Emergency Notification System
The
CodeRED® system is used to send critical communications, from evacuation
notices to missing child alerts.
CodeRED® employs a one-of-a-kind Internet mapping
capability for geographic targeting of calls, coupled with a high speed
telephone calling system capable of delivering customized pre-recorded
emergency messages directly to homes and businesses, live individuals and
answering machines.
This service can be used in case of fires, chemical
spills, evacuations, lock downs, downed power lines, lost individuals,
natural disasters, abductions, water system problems, bomb threats, or other
emergencies. Calls can be geographically targeted for localized messaging.
If widespread, the entire community could be called within minutes. The
system also reports who did not get a call so that they may be contacted by
other means.
Salisbury residents are welcome and encouraged to
enter their contact information for home, business, and mobile phones so
they may be contacted by the system in the event of an emergency. It is
important for Salisbury residents and businesses customers to register,
especially if they use unlisted numbers, cell phones, or VOIP. Those who do
not register their address and phone number may not be notified with CodeRED
in the case of an emergency. Registration is confidential, free, and easy.
