Emergency Management

Be Prepared, Not Scared

Under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act, O. Reg. 380/04, the Township of Huron-Kinloss has an Emergency Management Program that makes provision for such extraordinary arrangements and measures that may have to be taken to safeguard the property and health, safety and welfare of its residents.

An "Emergency" is defined by the Emergency Management Act as:
 "... a situation or an impending situation caused by the forces of nature, an accident, an intentional act or otherwise that constitutes a danger of major proportions to life or property."

Emergency Management Ontario and the Township encourage all residents/cottagers to maintain a 72-hour survival kit in case of emergency.  If an emergency event occurs in our area, residents/cottagers can receive information updates by tuning into one of the following local radio stations:  FM 101.7 The One, 94.5 The Bull, 95.5 My FM or AM 920, and/or the local Kincardine Cable station.

The Township Community Emergency Management Coordinator (CEMC) may be reached at recreation@huronkinloss.com or 519-395-2909.
