§ 29081 Regional Notification Coordinator Duties

• •When a notification region is set up, one person in charge (a commissioner) is picked to be the coordinator for that area.
• •The coordinator can ask for help from the University of California, other commissioners, and the department to create a system that sends out alerts or notices in that region.
• •This rule was added in 1987 to make sure someone is in charge of organizing how important messages get shared in a specific area.

Imagine your neighborhood needs a way to warn everyone about emergencies, like a big storm or a fire.

The law says one person (the coordinator) will be in charge of setting up a system to send these warnings. They can get help from experts or other leaders to make sure the system works well.
