What Is the Joint Information Center "JIC"
One of the lessons learned after the Rodeo/Chediski Fire, during the 2003
wildfires that devastated California, and the hurricanes in the south was
the need to have a single source of information available to the public relating
to the emergency in progress. Currently during such events the public often
has to contact various agencies to determine information such as evacuation
routes and evacuation centers, what to do with their pets, special health
care needs, a report on the smoke in the air, wildfire or other incidents,
volunteer opportunities, and a multitude of other types of inquiries. The
joint information center is a “one-stop shopping” facility where
the caller will be able to receive accurate information regarding the incident
(ie wildfire, public health emergency, hazardous material spill, natural
disaster) and other pertinent information needed to facilitate desired public
action.
Call 593 for Information
The center will be located in Apache County at the Springerville Elementary
School or in Navajo County at the Lakeside Fire Department. The center will
produce information to be posted to this website. People needing information
from the center during an emergency can dial “593” and talk to
a trained volunteer. The “593” system is operational now but
during non-emergency times, a caller will be given a choice by county to
hear a recorded message pertaining to local emergency management, health
alerts or concerns, and wildfires or prescribed fires in progress.more
