Know When to Go: CodeRED
CodeRED is Nevada County’s “Opt-In” emergency alert system.
Emergency notifications may be received as:
Text
Email
Calls to landlines or Mobile Phones
Teletypewriter (TTY)
(Note that CodeRED emergency notifications will not be sent for every fire in Nevada County. They are only sent when a fire is deemed a serious threat to life and property and only for the home address you provide when you register.)
Step1: Register all the phones in your household (choose one):
Visit ReadyNevadaCounty.org/EmergencyAlerts
Call 211 or 1-833-DIAL211.
If it’s been a while since you registered, it’s a good idea to doublecheck your registration to make sure all your contact information is up to date.
Step 2: Add CodeRED to Your Contacts
Add CodeRED to your Contacts.
Emergency calls come from:
“(866) 419-5000”Texts come from different numbers depending on your cellular service provider.
Set “Silence” and “Do-not-Disturb” settings to emergency bypass for those contacts.
