The goal of RDN Emergency Planning is to maintain and update an Emergency Plan for the residents of the RDN, in the event of a small or region-wide emergency. They also assist and help coordinate emergency response between local, regional, Provincial and Federal agencies and organizations.

No one plans on failure during an emergency, but many fail to plan! RDN Emergency Planning can help. Their website contains lots of good, useful information:

• Personal Emergency Preparedness Guidebook (PDF file)
• FireSmart Hazard Ratings
• Winter Hazards Information and Links

RDN Emergency Planning is also leveraging the use of social media to promote family preparedness, awareness initiatives and to keep the public informed. RDN Emergency Planning is now on Facebook!
