The Southeast Colorado All-Hazards Region (SECAHR) serves as a central point to provide assistance to each county's Division of Emergency Management in coordinating emergency services, such as law enforcement, fire, and medical services.

SECAHR includes Baca, Bent, Crowley, Kiowa, Otero and Prowers counties in southeast Colorado.

 

Bent and Kiowa Counties have instituted the CodeRED Emergency Notification System - a telephone communication service for emergency notifications. This system allows us to telephone all or targeted areas of the counties in case of an emergency situation that requires immediate action. The system is capable of dialing 15,000 phone numbers per hour. It then delivers our recorded message to a live person or an answering machine, making three attempts to connect to any number.

THIS SYSTEM WILL ONLY BE USED FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES.
 
Examples of times when the CodeRED system could be utilized: Drinking water contamination, Utility outage, Evacuation notice & route, Missing person, Fires or Floods, Bomb threat, Hostage situation, Chemical spill or Gas leak, and other emergency incidents where rapid and accurate notification is essential for life safety.

For further information about emergency preparedness activities in your area, contact the emergency manager in your county.
