| Description: |
The OES Warning Center is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. From this center, warning controllers speak with county OESs and the National Warning Center in Berryville, Virginia on a daily basis. OES also maintains a 24-hour toll-free toxic release hotline, and relays spill reports to a number of other state and federal response and regulatory agencies, as well as local governments. During emergencies, OES activates the State Operations Center (SOC) in Sacramento and the Regional Emergency Operations Centers (REOCs) in impacted areas to receive and process local requests for assistance.
