ATTENTION: Buena Vista Township Residents
Effective May 1, 2011 Buena Vista 9-1-1 Emergency Dispatch Services will no longer be handled by the MidAtlantic Dispatch Center in Egg Harbor. All calls will now be handled by the Gloucester County Dispatch Center located in Clayton, New Jersey. Residents will see no change in their emergency dialing procedures. The change will take place electronically. If you have any questions regarding dispatching to your property or special concerns you may call 856-589-0911.
In the United States, an Office of Emergency Management (OEM) is an agency at the local, state or national level that holds responsibility of comprehensively planning for and responding to all manner of disasters, whether man-made or natural. An OEM may also be requested to provide consequence management for large special events such as major gatherings, visiting dignitaries et al.
