Lambton County is a great place to live but every community has hazards.
When a local emergency occurs, you can receive alerts through My Community Notification Network (MyCNN). If you are a subscriber to MyCNN you can choose how you will be notified - whether by phone, email, text, or phone call (or any combination of these).
There are many ways residents can receive emergency notifications or find out information about emergencies.
Sarnia-Lambton Alerts (formerly named MyCNN) is a local alerting system that can be used to notify residents with publicly listed land-line telephones during an emergency. Subscribers can also receive alerts via cell phones, smart phones, email and more.
211 Ontario is a telephone and web ser- vice that provides information to the public about community and social ser- vices in Ontario. The service is available in 175 languages to Lambton residents 24 hours a day, everyday of the year.
9-1-1 is an emergency telephone number that makes it easier for residents to obtain urgent police, fire and ambulance assistance. The three digit number is brief, easy to remember and is used throughout most of North America.
The Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act also requires that municipalities prepare an Emergency Response Plan approved by By-law, and make it available to the public.
County Council approved the current County of Lambton Emergency Response Plan on November 2, 2022, under By-law 23 of 2022.
