The Ocean Gate Office of Emergency Management's (OEM) mission is to reduce the loss of life and property in order to protect the environment from all-hazards (man-made and natural) and acts of terrorism, that occur within, or may affect, the Borough of Ocean Gate. This is accomplished through collaboration to build, sustain, and improve our capabilities to prepare for, protect against, respond to,

recover from, and mitigate hazards, by providing and coordinating resources, expertise, leadership, and advocacy through a comprehensive, all-hazards, risk-based emergency preparedness program. When OEM becomes involved in an incident, it is because the scope and scale of the incident necessitate assistance beyond local resources. During these events, officials from the Borough and County (and possibly State and Federal) are also involved along with nongovernmental organizations (NG0s), elements of the private sector. This mission is achieved through coordination and cooperation of various Borough Departments, Volunteer Units, regional partners, and other organizations that would have a role in any major emergency, ensuring that the efforts of all players are coordinated and synchronized to achieve the best results is the job of incident management

Impending Snowstorm Advisory
From the Ocean Gate Police Department.

A major winter storm is currently forecast to impact our area from Saturday through Sunday. Depending on the storm’s track, significant snowfall accumulations of 12 inches or more are possible.

Preparedness will be critical. Residents are encouraged to ensure they have an adequate supply of essential items, including food, water, and required medications, sufficient for several days. Please also take time to secure or properly stow loose yard items to prevent them from becoming hazards due to high winds.

There will be no street parking during the storm. All vehicles must be parked on private property to allow for safe and effective snow removal operations. Vehicles can be parked at Mease park in town.

Residents should also be prepared for the possibility of power outages. Have flashlights, batteries, and emergency food supplies readily available.

Please call 911 with any emergencies.
