Current Activation
This is where any critical announcements regarding activation will be listed. Remember that in an emergency, we may NOT
have internet capabilities to post here. You should also go to your local repeater and check with your EC or DEC.
Current status: Level 0 - All is quiet!
Our Alert Levels are:
| Level 0 – Inactive: | No known event likely to occur. |
| Level 1 – Alert: | something might happen – a hurricane coming our way, etc. |
| Level 2 – Standby: | will only occur if something happens (time to load the car,
make sure everything is ready) |
| Level 3 – Deploy: | will only occur if a served agency asks for help |
Your EC and DEC are your points of contact as always. In case of emergency when phone service is disrupted, the following
(in priority order) are the best ways to volunteer. Please remember that anyone who self dispatches will be turned away.
The ways to check in when phone service is disrupted are:
First Choice - Your local ARES® 2-meter or other communications links
Second Choice - The linked repeater system - The CT ARES® Resource and Planning Net
