The Emergency Management Office responds to emergencies, involving hazardous materials or natural disasters. These responsibilities may include spills or ruptures of containers transporting or storing hazardous substances, floods, windstorms, tornadoes, severe hail, extended utility outages or any other natural or manmade hazard or emergency that affects the health, welfare or safety of the citizens of Clovis/Curry County.

The Office of Emergency Management also maintains, updates, and exercises the city/county All Hazard Emergency Operating Plan. The purpose of the E.O.P. is to plan and prepare for any emergency that taxes the resources of one or more agencies.

The Office of Emergency Management also opens and coordinates efforts in the city/county E.O.C. (Emergency Operating Center). In the event of a disaster or serious emergency, the elected officials or department heads of the effected agencies, or their designated representatives, all meet in the E.O.C. which facilitates the coordination of resources needed in an event of this magnitude.

If you have any questions or would like more information concerning emergency preparedness/management please call.
