Office of Emergency Management Orange County Office Of Emergency Management Emergency Communications Communications and Emergency Management are synonymous. We are constantly trying to do it better.
Disasters often change the rules as they see fit.
This means that we in Emergency Management must be flexible. Our communications needs reach far beyond our Department. We must be able to pass critical information to all of the cities located within the Orange County as well as communicate with the surrounding counties, State, and Federal agencies. We do this many ways. The traditional methods such as telephone and fax and the Internet has been very instrumental, but we can't stop there.
