In an effort to provide more reliable and effective communications with
citizens, Monongalia County has implemented Swiftreach Networks, Inc. as our
emergency notification provider.
Swift911™ is a system designed to make phone calls to specific people or areas
in the event of an emergency or for sharing important information. Monongalia
County Emergency Management and other departments will use this system to notify
citizens by phone of information regarding you or your property. The system can
make thousands of calls in a minute to convey vital information. These messages
may include information on floods, fires, water emergencies, road closures,
missing persons, evacuation orders, and weather emergencies.
The Swiftreach Network Data has been provided by a third party data provider and
only includes listed phone numbers in Monongalia County. It is important for
residents and business owners to provide contact information such as unlisted,
unpublished or cell phone numbers. Accurate numbers in the database help to
ensure emergency information will be passed on to everyone in a timely manner.
If you would like to provide an alternate number other than your home number you
may also do so. The alternate phone number would be called if your primary phone
number is not answered by a person or answering machine.
All calls you receive will have the caller ID of “Monongalia County.” Your
information will not be provided to any outside agencies or companies.
To update your information please complete this form. If you do not have access
to a computer you may call (304) 598-0301 extension 29 to provide information.
