Emergency Preparedness

Be prepared - it can happen to you.

Emergencies can affect part or all of a community. They can happen anytime and anywhere. The District of Mackenzie, with strong support from the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George and our community emergency services, are committed to helping residents in our area know the potential risks and how they can be prepared for and informed during an emergency. Don't be caught off guard when a larger emergency occurs, the better prepared we are the better we will manage during an emergency and recover afterwards.

Emergency Communications

We want to connect with you during an emergency. Stay informed with any emergency updates by monitoring this website, and the following sources:

Public Altering System for Emergency Notifications

The Public Alerting System (PAS) is a way for the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George to communicate important information to the most people in a short amount of time. When emergencies like severe weather, floods or wildfires happen, all registered contacts in that area will receive texts, voice calls or emails with public safety notifications and evacuation alerts and orders.

Register to receive notifications for Electoral Area G, which includes the District of Mackenzie, on the Regional District of Fraser-Fort George Public Alerting System Website.
