Emergency Operations Center (EOC)

An Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is a centralized facility where key officials and support teams coordinate responses during emergencies such as natural disasters, accidents, or public health crises. It serves as the command hub for gathering and sharing information, planning strategies, allocating resources, and communicating with the public and responders. The EOC helps ensure that efforts are organized, efficient, and effective, enabling a unified response to protect people, property, and the environment during critical situations.
