The County of Riverside has instituted a system that uses telephones to alert residents and businesses in Riverside County who are affected, threatened, or might be endangered by an emergency event or a disaster.

The system uses phone numbers in the region’s 9-1-1 database to contact listed and unlisted land-line telephones. It is TTY/TDD capable. If the call is picked up by an answering machine, the system will leave a voice message.

Because the 9-1-1 database includes only land-line numbers, other phone numbers must be registered. If you have a voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) or cellular telephone and would like to be notified over the device, you must register those telephone numbers to be included in the notification system.  In order to register VOIP or cellular telephone, please click the link to the Riverside County Web page and follow the directions to register.

If you have additional questions regarding the Early Warning Notification System please contact Riverside County Fire Office of Emergency Services at 951-955-4700.
