ADOT Rapid Notification System
Status: Planned
Description
The ADOT Rapid Notification System is used to contact the public by telephone during times of emergency. Through a reverse 911 system, residents receive a recorded message in English and Spanish notifying them of the nature of the emergency, and what steps they should take to eliminate risks associated with the emergency. Any public safety agency can activate the system, which can be used for emergency incidents that pose a danger to life or property. Potential uses include emergencies such as major fires, floods, public safety threats, hazardous materials spills, police incidents, and endangered children or elderly persons.

| Emergency Response Management | 'Emergency Response Management' provides the strategic emergency response capabilities and broad inter–agency interfaces that are implemented for extraordinary incidents and disasters that require response from outside the local community. It provides the functional capabilities and interfaces commonly associated with Emergency Operations Centers. It develops and stores emergency response plans and manages overall coordinated response to emergencies. It monitors real–time information on the state of the regional transportation system including current traffic and road conditions, weather conditions, special event and incident information. It tracks the availability of resources and assists in the appropriate allocation of these resources for a particular emergency response. It also provides coordination between multiple allied agencies before and during emergencies to implement emergency response plans and track progress through the incident. It also coordinates with the public through the Emergency Telecommunication Systems (e.g., Reverse 911). It coordinates with public health systems to provide the most appropriate response for emergencies involving biological or other medical hazards. | False |
