Chautauqua County Emergency Management and 911 Implement CAPSOL Mass Notification System
Chautauqua County Emergency Management, in coordination with Chautauqua County 911 Communications, has implemented CAPSOL, a new countywide mass notification system designed to enhance emergency communications and improve public safety.
The CAPSOL system provides Emergency Management and 911 dispatchers with the ability to rapidly send critical alerts to residents during emergencies. Notifications will be delivered through an app based system to smart phones, ensuring timely dissemination of life-saving information. Unlike our previous emergency alerting system, the CAPSOL app does not require your personal information (name, number, email) to send alerts. Please see below for more instructions.
CAPSOL will be used by Emergency Management and 911/dispatch personnel to support response operations during events such as:
• Missing or endangered person alerts
• Road closures and infrastructure emergencies
• Evacuations and shelter-in-place notifications
• Other time-sensitive public safety incidents
Residents are encouraged to download the app and enter the county code for alerts to ensure they receive emergency alerts specific to Chautauqua County KS. This is voluntary but strongly recommended to support effective emergency response and community safety.
To receive alerts, scan the QR code below or visit www.chautauquacountyks.com/emergency-management/pages/sign-alerts or contact Chautauqua County Emergency Management at 620-725-3108 or [email protected]
Chautauqua County Emergency Management and 911 Communications remain committed to protecting lives and property through preparedness, rapid response, and clear, timely communication.
