in the USA - a "EOC" or "E.O.C." or "E O C" or "E - O - C " or "E-O-C" is an Emergency Operations Center - this is a room that is put into operation when there is a major event - there will be representatives from all public safety agencies there - plus public works plus EMA plus maybe local government administrators
the primary purpose of the EOC is to unify the disparate public agency agencies and recovery organizations kinda like a 'super dispatch center' - or a 'uber dispatch center' or a 'coordinaor of emergency dispatch centers" 911 calls wont go directly to the EOC - they will go thru a PSAP as usual - however some radio calls from dpw trucks and local government vehicles might go via local government radio networks to the EOC - especially in smaller communities the EOC might or might not have direct radio connections to the outside world -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
