The Monongalia County Commission established the Monongalia County Homeland Security Emergency Management Agency (HSEMA) in July of 1988, in accordance with West Virginia code Chapter 15 Article 5.
The Monongalia County HSEMA is tasked with coordinating responses to disasters and other major emergencies across the county. The agency's dedicated staff monitors the county for natural hazards and other emergency situations. During an emergency situation, the agency coordinates the response of all local, county, state, and federal agencies, and provides key information to the public.
During day-to-day operations, the agency monitors the county for potential threats and ensures that the county emergency operations plan is logistically possible should an emergency arise. During emergencies, the agency activates the county's state-of-the-art Emergency Operations Center. This center is the heart of relief and recovery efforts for the county during and following a disaster.
