If I am in a location that is different than the address that I enter into the Web site for my wireless phone, will I still be contacted if an emergency affects the address entered?
Yes. No matter where you are physically located, you will only receive calls for emergencies that affect the address entered into the Web site. So if you are on vacation in a different state you will still receive a phone call if the address you entered is affected by an emergency.

Who should register for the Emergency Notification System?
All wireless and VoIP phone subscribers within Montrose, Delta, San Miguel, Ouray, Gunnison and Hinsdale counties who wish to receive emergency notifications. Subscribers' registered wireless and VoIP information will not affect their land line phones that are already in the system.
